I Can See the City's Breakdown Countdown

Cities never suddenly break down. Before the disaster occurred, it actually sent out countless weak calls for help. After his father died in an underground pipe gallery accident, Xu Chengan became the most serious urban maintenance worker. During a shopping mall resumption inspection, he suddenly saw a string of scarlet numbers on the gas pipe - 00:23:17. When the number hits zero, a glitch breaks out. He can see the countdown, but not the answer; the environment, load, and people's choices can change the result at any time. From elevators in old communities to subways, factories, ports and the lifeline of the entire city, Xu Chengan saves people while tracing the "crescent cracks" left by his father's accident. When everyone urged him to sign, he only had one sentence: "The fault doesn't go away, it just happens somewhere else."
