Ren Mo knew that he was cannon fodder.
The fluorescent green words on the back of his left hand were clearly written: [Cannon fodder C, survived episode 3, cause of death: casually shot to death by the villain]. She admitted it. When there were 40 minutes left in the countdown, she said "I quit."
Then he was caught.
Two men in gray uniforms walked out of the light beam, with four words engraved on the badges on their chests: Set up recycling bureau. They said that her "awakened resistance cannon fodder" setting has appeared 47 times this month, seriously exceeding the limit, and was forced to be recalled. Either destroy it, or sign a contract to become a temporary employee of the Recycling Bureau to recycle other illegal settings.
Ren Mo signed it.
She thought this was a simple job - finding those poorly written settings and then recycling them. But the first mission ran into trouble: a setting that was abused as a "mirror world gatekeeper", asking "who am I" over and over again in the recycling pool. Ren Mo opened the original setting file and found that it originally had a name: Empty Mirror.
It's not a gatekeeper. It is just a blank mirror that has been painted with various patterns.
From that moment on, Ren Mo began to doubt one thing: Is this recycling bureau protecting stories, or killing them?
A temporary contract, a silver thread emblem, a girl who turned from cannon fodder to law enforcer. What she wanted to take back was not the illegal setting—it was the person who made the rules.
