The Seventh Mask and the Withered Truth

When Xia Lin, the antique shop manager, wiped the bronze mask, a strange blood name suddenly appeared on the inside, plunging her into a bloody mystery. The former shop owner who fell to death on a rainy night, the ghost witness holding an eternal flower, and the 1927 pocket watch embedded with human skin, all the evidence points to the fatal reincarnation of the Seven Masks. Every time a layer of disguise is lifted, a corpse blossoms into a rotting rose in a Fibonacci sequence, while the breathing wax figure in the basement is quietly resurrecting the soul that was declared dead. A memory transplant experiment spanning a century gradually emerged, and Xia Lin discovered that his fingerprints were splitting into a third spiral. When the IP address of the live broadcast murder was located in the long-burned mental hospital, she finally saw the mathematical code in the pupils of the person in the mirror - it turned out that the seven-fold personality was just a petri dish for cultivating immortal bacteria, and in the hearts of all the victims, the sleeping fungal spores were devouring time. This sacrifice in the name of science will eventually grow the sharpest fangs in the withering truth. This novel and its characters are purely fictitious.
