"If saving you requires forgetting, I would like to be an eternal night in your memory." There is a group of secret "memory repairmen" in modern cities. They can read residual memories by touching objects and repair the psychological trauma of clients. But this ability comes at a huge cost - the tinkerer gradually loses his memory.
Lin Ci, a top memory repairer, lost his parents due to a childhood accident and made a living by repairing other people's memories. She can see "butterflies" that are the embodiment of memory fragments in her left eye, but her right eye gradually becomes blind due to the backlash of her ability.
There was a "human specimen" numbered X-07 in the laboratory, which was pale and had no memory. However, when Lin Ci touched him, all the butterflies in her left eye turned black and fell - he was the only "absolute blank body" that she could not read since she started working.
When the countdown reached zero, the bronze door of the Memory Management Bureau suddenly opened. Three thousand suspended memory cocoons hide tampered cities and crying souls. Lin Ci pierced the tweezers into his temple and chuckled at X-07 in the torrent of billions of memories: "Now, it's you who will watch this eternal night for me."
——If salvation is a big gamble, I bet all my memories and the last glimmer of humanity in your broken mechanical heart.
Purpose: To explore how individuals can achieve self-salvation by confronting trauma in a modern society characterized by technological alienation and memory monopoly. When memory becomes a commodity and emotions are quantified as experimental parameters, only the light of humanity, inscribed in the flesh, can pierce the lies of immortality woven by power.
