Star Sea Stowaway

The star gate is both a bridge and a cage. Li Xingye, an archaeologist obsessed with the truth, discovered evidence deep in the moon that overturned everything: the ancient star gate was not a gift to the stars, but a carefully disguised filtering system that monitored and restricted the growth of civilization. Overnight, he went from respected scholar to the most wanted criminal in the galaxy. The only way to survive is to sneak into the shadow world under the stars. He boarded the "Night Owl" - a converted ship driven by retired engineer Lao Chen and roaming the lawless land. Accompanying him are the unpredictable guide Sophia and the girl Ella with a strange space talent. They are an illegal smuggling team that specializes in using the gaps in the Stargate network to transport "goods" and "people" that are not officially allowed to circulate. Behind him is Karls, a ruthless agent sent by the interstellar enterprise "New Horizons". He firmly believes that he is maintaining the necessary order. Ahead, there are abandoned waterways full of unknown traps, a secret smuggling network hub, and the truth of the galaxy that has been buried for millions of years. During this interstellar pursuit, Li Xingye gradually realized that the secrets he carried were not only related to personal life and death, but also touched upon a fundamental question: when the fate of the entire civilization is based on a huge lie, should you choose the comfort of silence, or embark on a thorny road of stowaway to pursue dangerous freedom? This is an escape to find cracks in the surveillance galaxy, and also a lonely journey to find "another way out" for civilization.
