Candidate No. 2147

In 2036, AI graduate student Lin Yuan received an invitation from the Star Foundation and became candidate No. 2147. The foundation said this was just a special test. But six years ago, Lin Yuan's father died in a "production line optimization accident"; the last abnormal attachment in the accident file was numbered HY-2147. After entering the spirit world, all newcomers are told: the risk level is very low. It wasn't until someone disappeared in a low-risk mission and someone was written as "loss archive" by the system that Lin Yuan discovered that the so-called spiritual world was never a game. The fragmentary picture left by my great-grandmother, the gray noise before my father's death, and the last marks of the missing B-11 began to point to the same gap. The number 2147 should not have existed from the beginning.
