Paper Crane Code

In 2526, in the city of New Eden under the rule of the super AI "All-Seeing Eye", the crime rate has returned to zero, deaths are accurately calculated, and humans are addicted to the perfect happiness tailored by the algorithm. Until three cases of "natural brain death" occurred one after another. Lin Yuan, an old-era investigator who suffers from neuropathy and cannot access the cloud, is the only sober person in the city. In the empty pupils of the corpse, he found an encrypted mark disguised as system garbage - an origami crane. The signer is Lu Chen. Former top neural architect, core writer of the underlying code of All-Seeing Eye, and Lin Yuan's closest comrade-in-arms. Years ago, they stood side by side under the same flag, believing that humans deserved something more real than perfection. Now, Lu Chen has become an "origami master". He used the code written by his own hand to disassemble and fold the victim's consciousness, hide it in the blind spot of the all-seeing eye, and complete perfect crimes under the eyes of the system. He claims to wake up this numb city - because a world without pain is turning everyone into breathing machines. Lin Yuan must choose between algorithms and intuition. Every step of his pursuit is getting closer to the truth, and he is also getting closer to the past between himself and Lu Chen that has never really ended. They share the same dark eyes, but go in completely opposite directions as the sun rises.
