Efemini, a down-on-his-luck everyman whose life changes forever after a chance meeting with an old friend. Forced by circumstance to suppress his principles and explore a life of cybercrime, he finds himself making ever-greater moral compromises to stay ahead of the consequences of his new choices and broadening tastes.

落魄青年埃费米尼的生活因偶遇旧友而骤变，一纸协议将他推入灰色网络世界的深渊。为了掩盖早年梦想的破灭，他被迫亲手“杀死”那个坚持原则的自己——在加密的代码与道德的裂缝间，他用谎言编织安全网，用背叛浇筑防火墙，却不知每一步妥协都在为自己的“猴影”写墓志铭。当数据洪流吞噬人性时，他终将明白：被杀的从来不是猴子，而是那个拒绝被驯化的“人”。
