Cage Era

When he was twelve years old, his parents mysteriously disappeared in the "Huaian Project" experimental accident, leaving only an incomprehensible metal fragment and the sentence "You can understand" to Lin Mo. He was placed under surveillance by the Seventh Bureau of the United Kingdom. In the cage of false freedom and reality, he was forced to put on the mask of an "ordinary student" and return to the seemingly peaceful campus. Until he met Chen Ruohan, his deskmate with pupils as ice and emotions as precise as instruments. She saw through every bit of his pretense, in the handwriting of his mathematical problem solving, in the data of his biological experiments, and in the depths of fear in his every midnight dream. She said: "Excessive concealment is as conspicuous as excessive exposure." When the spectrometer of the campus interest group captured the mysterious peak of 720 nanometers, when the dusty old journals in the library revealed the encrypted last words of his parents, when the fragment had a fatal resonance with the distant "anchor" - Lin Mo finally understood that what his parents buried with their lives was not only the scientific truth that could tear reality apart, but also his destiny as the "key". And Chen Ruohan, is Chen Ruohan the eyes that monitor him, his opponent on the chessboard, or... A similar person like him, looking for cracks in the cage? "They built the cage, but they forgot that the most perfect observer is the biggest variable."
