This book tells the story of architect Zhou Yan, who after his wife Lin Wan fell to death, used the "Forgetting Clinic" to delete painful memories full of self-blame and implant false fragments of peace to restart his life. When his new girlfriend inadvertently triggers a memory rift, he gradually discovers the tampered truth: he was once a paranoid man who forced his wife to despair. As the paintings, recordings and other evidence left by Lin Wan emerged, Zhou Yan embarked on a cruel journey to pursue his true self. Finally, he faced the guilt of "negligent death" in court, and chose to use the pain of prison to mend the gap in his soul, completing his resistance and redemption against the tyranny of memory.
