The right and wrong of history are never clear; the regret of human nature is both poison and antidote. Lin Heng, an ordinary student who can sense the "traces" of history, witnessed reality being torn apart in an accident in the library - the rift in time and space bloomed ferociously in front of his eyes. Since then, he has been dragged into a mysterious organization called "Historical Beacon", whose creed is cold and absolute: history cannot be assumed, and maintaining the purity of the timeline is a mission above all else. His job is to travel through magnificent historical nodes to stop those "time and space tamperers" who try to tamper with the past out of regret, obsession and unwillingness. He witnessed the tragic death of a loyal soul and experienced the despair of civilization under the catastrophe. He holds the authority to safeguard "correct" history, but his heart is burned time and time again by the fiery human emotions of the tamperers - is that regret a mistake that should be erased, or is it the truest glimmer of humanity? When Lin Heng discovered that the organization he was loyal to contained the original sin of modifying history; when the paranoid "revisionists" showed him the temptation of another "more perfect" future... The faith he held on completely collapsed. Between the torrent of history and his personal solitude, between cold rightness and warm human feelings, Lin Heng must make a choice that transcends right and wrong. He will no longer be someone's sharp blade or chess piece, he will become a watchman independent of time - not forcibly correcting every mistake, but only gently turning the pointer of fate before history goes into complete darkness. Because the value of true history never lies in its perfection.
