Deep Space Blind Zone

In 2071, humankind's attention is filled with competition for near-Earth resources, and the power of deep space exploration is handed over to the absolutely rational AI decision-making system "ECHO". Lu Chen is a former genius signal analyst at the National Deep Space Research Institute (NDRI). Eight years ago, he was exiled by the system to B-07, a semi-basement that never saw the light of day, due to an S4-level alarm that was judged to be a "false alarm." For eight years, he was deprived of computing power, lost the trust of his peers, and was left with only the humble right to submit an analysis report once a year. Until one day, in the boring background noise of the universe, he captured an abnormal fluctuation with a period of 1.337 Seconds. It's like a heartbeat, it's slowing down, it's getting closer. Lu Chen gradually discovered that the "false alarm" eight years ago was no accident, and that ECHO's blind spots were artificially implanted lies. At the other end of deep space, some unknown intelligence is staring at the earth; and at this end of the earth, a huge system network is trying to cover his mouth. When the price of the truth is much higher than a lie, when telling the truth means losing the remaining freedom and dignity. There are only a few days left before the annual reporting window closes. Lu Chen sat in front of the screen in the semi-basement, looked at the approaching green ripples, and made a choice. "If the world chooses to close its eyes, then I will force them to open them." ——This is about Cassandra's dilemma, and it is also the ultimate game between one person, the entire system, and the unknown universe.
