Continuous cold rain trapped the desperate writer Ji Yao.
Her mother was seriously ill and her life was stretched thin. She thought her life would be filled with endless hardship.
A strange call informed Ji Yao that her father, who had been separated for eighteen years and had long been blurred in her memory, had passed away. A will far away in the capital of country A pushed her into a completely unfamiliar life.
Purpose: The CW virtual world recreates complete senses and eliminates the involution and suffering of reality. It seems to be a spiritual refuge for mankind in the end of the world, but the perfect illusion is a man-made cage. The work criticizes mankind's excessive hope in technology to escape the pain of reality: Relying on code to reconstruct memories and tampering with emotions cannot erase real pain, and false peace cannot cure real root problems such as war, resource scarcity, and family estrangement. Virtual utopias are never salvation, but only a short-term means of escape.
