Summary

Xia Ziheng is a renowned data analyst skilled in data and algorithm design who is framed and imprisoned. After his release, a chance encounter with his new colleague Liu Hong leads him, while working with the tech unicorn Aidatar Group in City A, to discover that the group's chairman Niu Yige's wife is his ex-girlfriend and that Niu may be involved in the plot that framed him years ago. Guided by an anonymous figure, Xia begins investigating Niu, only to fall into a new trap and become a suspect in a murder targeting Niu. Hunted by the police, he is saved by Liu Hong, who reveals her identity: she is an officer from the newly established Big Data Crime Prevention Laboratory, assigned undercover to crack data-related crimes connected to Aidatar. After clearing Xia's name, Liu tells him that the lab's newly developed robot "Anang" predicts three cases involving Aidatar and data within the next ten days, and asks him to help solve them through data analysis.

Editor's review

This is a genre novel that combines data analysis expertise with suspenseful crime narrative. Through the experiences of protagonist Xia Ziheng, author Li Jinsong embeds professional details such as algorithm design and data tracking into a main storyline of framing, pursuit, and case-solving, making the technological elements not merely backdrop but a key driving force of the plot. The novel sets up multiple layers of reversal: from a personal wrongful conviction to a corporate conspiracy, then to the intervention of an undercover police officer and a crime-prediction robot. The pacing is tight, suitable for readers seeking a strongly plotted reading experience. The depiction of the "Big Data Crime Prevention Laboratory" and the robot "Anang" also reflects contemporary society's concern with data ethics and public safety, prompting readers to think about the double-edged nature of technology. As a suspense work for a general audience, it balances professionalism and readability, serving both as casual reading and as an accessible entry point for readers interested in the data industry. While reading, pay attention to how the author uses data logic to connect clues and appreciate the pleasure of blending genre fiction with occupational writing.

Reading tips

No. It is a suspense novel featuring a data analyst as the protagonist; the technical content serves plot development rather than systematically explaining analytical methods and tools. It is suitable as genre reading, not as a study textbook.
Can I understand it without a data industry background?
Yes. The data and algorithm descriptions in the book are kept within what the plot requires, and the author sets no professional threshold. General readers can follow the story clues to understand character motivations and the direction of the case.
Is the robot "Anang" an important setup in the book?
It is a key setup driving the latter half of the plot, introducing the threads of crime prediction and the Big Data Crime Prevention Laboratory. Readers can understand it as a narrative device linking the case and character relationships rather than a description of real technology.
