About

The world is being quietly replaced. The "newcomers" are entirely rational and flawless. They speak with the voices of the people you miss the most, offering the gentlest care. Their only glitch? Their physical reactions are always exactly 0.5 seconds too late. In an era where a high-dimensional system forces everyone into a perfect, sterilized "consensus," human emotions—sorrow, fear, and irrational obsessions—have become fatal viruses slated for deletion. Ruan hasn't been deleted yet. He's not sure why. Carrying this virus called "humanity," he finds a group of people who still remember what it felt like to want something pointless—and together they decide to tear a rift into this infallible system. If the world is destined to erase you, what proves you ever existed? They aren't trying to save humanity. They are just using their own lives to measure that 0.5-second execution error.
