Kai is an ordinary average inhabitant of the Earth in the not very distant future, in which there are no fish or animals left, cities are covered in smog, there are no states and two main languages: Chinese and English. He has a pretty tolerable life, working in a protein patty factory and spending pleasant hours in virtual reality. It all comes crashing down when he gets his hands on something that makes him a lawbreaker and a target for a powerful enemy. Not only his own survival is at stake, but also the fate of a large part of humanity.
