The first cryonics patient appeared as early as 1966, yet to this day, not one has ever been successfully revived. Is revival from cryonic preservation merely a pipe dream woven from fantasies of immortality and technological progress?
As molecular revitalization technology reaches maturity, the revival surgery of James, a tycoon hailed as the cryonics industry's model case, ends in failure. The incident sparks unprecedented condemnation of the body-freezing industry from environmental groups. Against this hostile backdrop, the cryonics institute must withstand unprecedented pressure to revive the remains of gambling king Crowlin, since that is the condition for unlocking his astronomical inheritance.

They must also push beyond the limits of technology to awaken my memories.
Dr. Niu, whose cryonics institute is on the verge of bankruptcy; Cervantes, a ruthless sponsor; Crowlin's descendants; and the trust organization: four forces, each with its own agenda. Crowlin's media conference is scheduled for seven days from now, and finding his remains is urgent! Can Dr. Niu and Cervantes turn the tide and resolve the crisis?
