Two Heartbeats and One Me

At two o'clock in the morning, programmer Lu Ming's code reported an error for the third time. He didn't notice that a circle of cyan lines was appearing on the little finger of his left hand - it was the mark of the awakening of the other half of the soul. Seven years ago, he was stripped of half of his consciousness and implanted in a data center. Now, the "Mo Ying" who was as calm as a code has woken up. "I am you. The you that was taken away." Two heartbeats, one body. Mo Ying helped him write the perfect code and led him into the "Night City", the world of consciousness. Lu Ming learned that his birth, growth, and encounters were all arranged by the experiment. He is no ordinary programmer. It is Experimental Subject No. 187. What's even more frightening is that the "Smiling Man" who wrote all the codes has been waiting for him in the depths of the night city for forty-seven years. Mo Ying's seven years of waiting, Su Xiao's seven years of searching for his brother, Lao Chen's ten years of watching, Zero's ten thousand years of loneliness... Everyone's waiting points to the same end. When the seven consciousnesses become one, the door to truth opens. Either complete or disappear. Lu Ming had only one choice: walk into the abyss with eleven heartbeats and see the man who kept laughing. ——200,000 Words of cyberpunk suspense·The most tear-jerking science fiction group portrait of the year
