Take Half a Step More: Burn

There is a group of people in the world who have "taken half a step further than others" in a certain dimension. They have better memories, sharper perceptions, more energy, and more intuitive intuition—but that's about it. No superpowers, no supernatural powers, no awakening. Just half a step more. Lin Mo is one of them. He can remember everything, from when he was eight months old to today, every second is carved into his mind like a knife. He thought he was a monster until he met four other people who "walked half a step longer." They got together and gave the clique a name: Gambling. No one knows that there is a price to pay for taking that extra half step. Every time you use your ability, you burn yourself. Every time it burns, something is lost - color, temperature, sound, emotion. Lin Mo watched his companions fall one by one, and watched himself become empty little by little. Twenty years later, he stood at the top of the poker table and watched hundreds of people call him "Joker." He remembers everything. But he couldn't feel anything anymore.
