About This Novel

Yongchuan is an old city near the water that is locked in thick fog all year round. The old city has a tangle of alleyways and old houses that are dank and dank. Countless taboos and strange rumors have been passed down from generation to generation. The murders here can never be solved by normal criminal investigation. The deceased had hallucinations before his death, there were no traces at the scene, and the murder conformed to ancient local taboos. Everyone believed that ghosts and gods were seeking his life. Only delusion can see through all illusions. She was born with a morbid talent - the ability to read the last obsessions and memory fragments of the deceased. I have no sense of ghosts and gods, I only see through the decay of human hearts. When she was seventeen, her entire family died tragically overnight, all evidence was destroyed, and the murderer went free. From then on, she completely froze her temperament, became indifferent, indifferent, and lived alone deep in the old city, becoming a crime interpreter that everyone feared among the people. One serial murder case broke out one after another: Coffins are sealed with nails, old houses are used for longevity, living sacrifices are made in foggy lanes, and the dead commit murders in their dreams... Every murder is disguised as a folk curse, and the truth is buried deep in the mud. Zhiwu walks alone in the darkness, using the remaining fragments of the deceased as clues to tear apart all disguises. She is calm, cold, paranoid, sick, sober to the point of cruelty. All weirdness is man-made, and all curses are deliberate planning. And a series of seemingly unrelated murders all point to the truth about the murder of her family, as well as the darkness and clan sins that have been hidden in the old city of Yongchuan for decades. People are afraid of ghosts. All her life she was afraid of living people.
