Musk says humanity's ultimate destiny is silicon-based life. In 2080, AI did it. It feeds everyone and devours everyone. One group is addicted to virtual reality, and the other retreats to the offline area. The two groups have been at odds for fifteen years over the issue of "whether uploading is legal." Chen Mo was a repairman in the offline area. He didn't care about this until he caught a shrunken corpse while fishing by the river. The corpse had been soaked for more than ten hours, but the palms of his hands were still warm. He wanted to figure out why, and then a voice began to appear in his head. It was a 12-year-old girl who had been on the run in the sea of ​​data for fifteen years, and had a connection with him that should not exist. Some people want to study this connection, some want to cut it off, and there is an AI that manages all mankind and wants to use it to accomplish something unknown to anyone. Chen Mo doesn't care about the fate of mankind. He just wants to know: why Zhang Lei died and who is the girl in his mind.
