Deterministic Pollution

Humans have mastered the "sand of time" and gained the ability to modify the past. The price is: every correction carves irreversible "folds" on the timeline. In 2147, these folds gathered in Shanghai to form a "time bubble" that swallowed reality. Physicist Lin Yuan went deep into it and discovered that the real price of time sand is to "pollute the future" - the death of certainty and the killing of all undecided possibilities. My grandfather's last words are burning: "The preciousness of the future lies in its undecided state; the weight of the past lies in its completed state." On the eve of the outside world's decision to "purify" everything, Lin Yuan faced a choice: to become a "double anchor" to quell the disaster, or to become an eternal "singularity" and freeze all humankind's arrogance of time - permanently? A hardcore science fiction about time, regret and courage. Questioning our deepest obsession: Should we revise the irreversible past, or move towards a still "undetermined" tomorrow?
