In 3074, the Shadowgear Detective Agency was established in the back alleys of Evernight City.
A blood-fainting director, a medical examiner who loves tomato juice and slacking off, an assistant who loves shopping and never sets foot in a store, and...
An amnesiac freelancer with nothing to do, Bai Wuzhou.
Anyone seeing this team would have to ask what kind of slapdash outfit this was.
Bai Wuzhou seemed to agree with the description.
So every day, he seriously considered how he would support himself and his cat if the agency went under.
But the expected closure never came. Instead, the Deep Sea descended first, followed by the Machine Intelligence Crisis, the Creation Crisis, and the Abyssal Crisis.
The conglomerates' funds were seized, and all the machines owned by the machine-intelligence groups rebelled.
Supercomputers began surveilling humanity, while the Devouring Abyss opened its enormous black maw.
Bai Wuzhou was grumbling as usual while buying exorbitantly priced cat food. He couldn't understand why they were the ones who had to deal with all this.
Looking at the hundreds of pages of dense counterattack plans, Bai Wuzhou was silent for a few moments.
Then he ventured, "Why does this have to be so complicated? Wouldn't it be simpler to just grind these things to dust?"
Bai Wuzhou, who had nothing to do, suddenly became busy, turning into the biggest workhorse of them all.
Bai Wuzhou: Another day of wanting to arrange funerals for this whole troublesome bunch.
Case File:
1. The protagonist receiving the love is not just a background character. I simply can't write blurbs. (This is a gong-led story, so the shou hasn't appeared yet!)
2. There are a ton of my own headcanons. This is my take on cyberpunk, and all the unreasonable bits are because the author lacks common sense.
3. Guess what the cat's deal is.
4. The gong's amnesia will be explained later, and he'll get better (probably?). Don't worry too much.
5. Putting up a cyber-shield for now. If anything comes up, I'll urgently revise the code.
Theme: Technology and humanity developing together.
