New York City Crime

After the nuclear war, the world was controlled by twenty mega-corporations that established a global government. Governed by AI, it judged everything. Gao Xin, who had only wished to live a peaceful life, inexplicably became a scapegoat for the elite and, unable to pay the imprisonment fee, was sentenced to ten years of exile on Crime Prison Island! On this island, there were no laws, no constraints, the only order being the numerous game arenas set up by the officials. The criminals could only participate like racehorses for the entertainment of the elite. Yet, on this prison island filled with Radiation, cyborgs, and many powerful villains, Gao Xin had no strength, no talent, and no background—like a sheep thrown into a crocodile pool, no different from being on death row. How could an ordinary person like him survive under the oppression of the strong, the geniuses, and the wicked? Unless in this world, there was a path, a path that allowed even the weakest to continuously break their shackles.

In a world where emotion fuels destruction, the greatest threat isn’t what people do—it’s what they don’t. Drive is the volatile energy born from resisting your own instincts. Repressed rage. Swallowed fear. Suppressed guilt. Most people leak it. Others wield it. And when too much builds up, it doesn’t vanish—it festers. The result? Hollows—mindless entities formed from humanity’s buried urges. They haunt the streets, feeding on tension, grief, and silence. At the center of it all is the Core Authority—a broken institution that recruits emotionally unstable teens to contain what adults caused and can't control. Failing is death. Succeeding means losing yourself anyway. In this system, being strong means being unwell—and surviving means never being whole again.

In the rain-soaked alleys of an unnamed city, two strangers collide — not by fate, but by exhaustion. Aarav, a quiet writer running from the weight of his own memories, finds Anaya — broken, bruised, and unconscious at a train station bench. She doesn’t want to be found. He never meant to care. But something in her silence mirrors his own. As days pass and fragile trust begins to form, their quiet companionship becomes a refuge neither of them expected. But the past isn’t done with either of them. Anaya is being hunted — not by monsters, but by people she once called her own. Aarav holds a truth of his own — one that could shatter the fragile world they’ve just begun to build. Set in a world that feels too real to be fiction, The City of Shadows is not a story of grand miracles, but of small moments that save lives. It’s a deeply emotional journey through trauma, healing, and the kind of love that doesn't arrive with fireworks — but with quiet tea cups, shared balconies, and the promise to stay even when it hurts. Because sometimes, the most dangerous place isn't the world outside… but the memories we carry within.

But secrets run deeper than bullets, and the man who broke her may be the only one who can save her from the monster she’s becoming. Love never stood a chance here. Not in Deadman’s City. But death? Death was always waiting.

Somewhere in the depths of space… An object pulsed faintly, radiating light—yet at the same time, it seemed to absorb it. Its size was impossible to measure, as if its very existence defied the laws of reality. Anything that approached—asteroids, stars, even light itself—was consumed without a trace, disappearing into the void. If one were to observe closely, they would see the fabric of space twisting and distorting around it, yet somehow appearing stable—as if reality itself were an illusion.  Its rough, circular shape resembled what humans might call a black hole—though whether that truly defined its nature was a question beyond understanding. Its location? Fortunately for humankind, it was nowhere near the Milky Way galaxy. Suddenly, a streak of white and gold light erupted from the black hole's center, cutting through the darkness with blinding speed. It shot into the depths of space, with no sign of slowing or changing course. Its destination? Unknown.
