Monument of Silence

Do you believe that communication can solve all problems? Xie Lingchen had no doubts about it. As the best negotiator, he has pulled back desperate souls from the rooftops and used empathy to resolve cold blades. He has a blind sister who needs to use sound to perceive the world; he has a lover who tries to capture the "ineffable silence" with music. His world is built of love and meaning. Until a woman named Li Xiuying said softly "Forget it" in front of him, and then jumped down. Until he discovers that the order he defends is itself complicit in violence. Until the threat came to his door and told him in front of his family: Some silence is more terrifying than the noise. When all language is reduced to pale noise, when all justice becomes ridiculous lies, what else can a person believe? Xie Lingchen chose to believe in "nothing". He disappeared. Many years later, a ship named "Silence" appeared in the universe. Its owner, the fifth executive officer "Eternal Night", implements a protocol called "Compassionate Silence" - returning those civilizations that are running crazy due to emotion, logic, and desire to eternal silence. This is not destruction, but... Another kind of salvation.
