Tracing the Dust

Lu Zhixiao is a dedicated professional at a public institution, known for his honesty and kindness. However, a single "favor guarantee" drags him into an abyss by the retired leader he respects, Zhao Zhenshan. With a debt of three million yuan looming, collection calls, alienation, credit blackmarks, and workplace strife follow one after another, pushing him to the brink. On an early autumn morning, he jumps to his death. The case-handling department does not simply classify it as suicide; instead, they use big data analysis, AI profiling, and sky-net tracking technologies to trace the flow of the three million yuan layer by layer, ultimately uncovering a dark network of "debt—guarantee—transfer" spanning many years, and reconstructing the entire process of how an honest man was pushed step by step into the abyss by acquaintances, face, and wishful thinking. This book reflects the common dilemmas of urbanites in debt, human relationships, workplace, and family, warning people: stay away from high-interest speculation, be cautious about guaranteeing for others, hold the financial bottom line, and cherish ordinary life. Though dust is small, it can be traced; may every person moving forward under a heavy burden, after seeing the abyss clearly, still choose to keep their feet on the ground and live toward the sun. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Tracing the Dust — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
