Lin Shen discovered a hidden chip inside a Moon Rabbit Tribe statue he bought as a gift for A Yun. After bringing the chip to Giant Ring Star for inspection, he learned it appeared to be an unfamiliar kind of Storage Chip.

• Lin Shen bought a miniature Moon Rabbit Tribe statue because it reminded him of A Yun, and considered helping her advance to Nirvana so he could use Valkyrie's Protection to share her insights into laws.

• Lin Shen found a hard black object inside the statue, crushed it, and uncovered a tiny chip.
• Lin Shen checked his other trinkets for hidden surveillance devices and arranged for the items to be scanned on Giant Ring Star.
• A staff member told Lin Shen that the chip seemed to be a Storage Chip made with unfamiliar technology.

Lin Shen recovered several videos from an old Storage Chip and found that they showed different rooms, most of them empty. After summoning Tian Xin to examine the first video, Lin Shen opened it again and froze at what he saw.

• Lin Shen had a staff member confirm that the chip was a Storage Chip, then rewarded him with a Pet Capsule.
• Lin Shen watched a three-hour video of a mosaic-blurred person spending time in a messy room and playing an old game, but the damaged video could not be fast-forwarded.
• Lin Shen viewed more videos showing lavish rooms with no people and suspected they were surveillance footage.
• Lin Shen summoned Tian Xin to check whether the person in the first video was covered in mosaic.
• Lin Shen reopened the first video and froze when he saw the image.

Lin Shen discovered that the videos on the chip seemed to advance even while closed, and Tian Xin helped him try to remove the mosaic censoring. After they connected the chip to Tian Xin’s Intelligent Brain, a figure appeared in another video that Lin Shen had previously seen empty.

• Lin Shen found that reopening the video showed footage from later, despite the Intelligent Brain confirming it had been closed.
• Tian Xin saw the person covered by mosaic censoring and explained that the mosaic could be removed with an Intelligent Brain.
• The laboratory staff member failed to copy the videos, so Tian Xin chose to have an adapter interface printed onto the chip.
• Tian Xin connected the chip to his Intelligent Brain, Little Deer, but the video froze before the figure could be uncovered.
• Lin Shen watched another video and saw the mosaic-covered figure in a room that had previously appeared empty.

Lin Shen and Tian Xin watched synchronized videos of the Mosaic Man and debated whether they were surveillance footage or edited recordings. Lin Shen noticed that objects in one room had reverted to earlier states, suggesting the footage was looping, but the videos’ true nature remained unclear.

• Tian Xin failed to control the videos or remove their mosaics, so he projected every clip at once.
• Lin Shen noticed the Mosaic Man move between rooms through doors, appearing in different videos with no break in the action.
• Tian Xin concluded that the clips were synchronized parts of a single edited video, but Lin Shen rejected his explanation.
• Lin Shen pointed out that the game console, instant-noodle bowl, and book had returned to their earlier positions in the first room.
