About This Novel

Lin Yan, an intern at the Folklore Museum, accidentally inherited the "Tonight Pavilion" left behind by his missing grandfather. Since then, he has been involved in a series of strange events tied to old news and legends. The "Yin Opera Troupe" suddenly reappeared in the city, the paper-figure flower boats floating on the river, the century-old blood curse suddenly appeared at the demolition site in the old city... Behind every incident, there is a truth buried by time. Lin Yan has no supernatural powers, only half a copy of "Night Wen Lu" left by his grandfather and a pair of eyes that can see "remnants of old things". He is well aware of the dangers of strange events, and adheres to the principle of "Be patient if you can, and take action after making a decision." While looking through old files and visiting old neighborhoods to dig for clues, he teams up with Shen Qingyao, the straightforward female captain of the criminal investigation team, to find hope in the gap between reality and legend. From serial murders during the Republic of China to bizarre disappearances in modern cities, from ancient folk taboos to man-made malicious layouts, Lin Yan discovered that all incidents pointed to a mysterious organization, the "Bone Collecting Society." This organization uses folk customs as a guise, taking advantage of people's greed and fear to create strange things, and can even manipulate "remnants of old events" for its own use. The disappearance of my grandfather seems to be inextricably linked to this organization. People who cross the night are crossing unfinished obsessions and chasing late truths. In the life-and-death games, Lin Yan gradually unveiled the mystery of the "Bone Collecting Society" and gradually understood the motto left by his grandfather: "All weirdness is based on the human heart; all legends have prototypes."
