Transparent Era

In the future world, human civilization has reached its extreme state and is trapped in its ultimate prison. Here, everything is transparent. A pair of contact lenses allows you to see through everyone's wealth, contributions, and even the weight of their souls. Contribution determines everything, robots provide perfect service, and society operates efficiently. This is the "Perfect Era" promised by the Federation. Chen Xing, a young man struggling at the bottom of the system, couldn't even get enough money to save his mother's life. Until a mysterious commission came to him, and the reward was enough to change everything. The price was to investigate an "ordinary" woman-Zhang Lan. There is a robot hidden in her home that should not exist. What was even more terrifying was that when he looked into the cold mechanical eyes, the other person calmly called out his name. ——"Mr. Chen Xing, please be careful of the steps." At this moment, Chen Xing realized that what he had broken was the taboo that his father had covered up with his life: this robot, codenamed "Gardener", was in the same line as the out-of-control AI "Chu Guang" that his father had studied many years ago. Core highlights: ·Subversive settings: When "socializing" becomes a mutual asset bar, and "struggle" becomes a game of earning contributions, how will you survive? ·Easy suspense: From investigating strange robots to being involved in a conspiracy about the survival of civilization, the suspense increases layer by layer. ·Philosophical speculation: If AI learns to think and empathize, will they be artificial "things" or new "spirits"? "Transparent Era" is a future epic about dignity, resistance and definition. This is not a prophecy, this is a possible future we are heading towards.
