I, Who Runs a Bookstore, Am Actually the Last Person to Play Chess at Blue Star
About This Novel
In the old town of Jiangcheng, the warm lights of the "Evening Lights" bookstore are a little light in the despair of countless people. The boss, Lin Yan, is a well-known Buddhist young man in the eyes of the neighbors. I make tea and feed the cat every day, hold the door open for passers-by who come home late, and lend a helping hand to the aunt next door. My life is leisurely, like a still water without any ripples. No one knows that when the sword-holding bureau is struggling with the cracks in the rules, when the extraordinary people are losing ground in front of alienated creatures, and when the underlying rules of the entire world begin to fall apart, this bookstore owner who only knows how to make tea will gently lift his fingertips to restore the twisted space, bow the collapsed rules, and stop the exploration of the abyss. He is Blue Star's last "rule holder" and the only person who can rewrite the underlying rules of the world. Ten years ago, the previous chess player burned his life, blocking the first glimpse of the abyss, leaving the city full of devastation and unfinished protection, and also handed the inheritance into the hands of young Lin Yan. Ten years later, the rules have completely collapsed, the old gods have returned, and the abyss is glaring. Lin Yan still guards his small bookstore, but this time, what he wants to protect is the hot noodle soup in the alley, a cup of hot tea late at night, the peace and joy of the people around him, and the lights of thousands of houses in this world. Those who play chess never do it for authority, only for protection.
