Outside the Rules

Under the shadow of modern cities, there is an unknown realm of rules hidden - supernatural rules that are fatal if touched emerge in black text in the air, and very few awakened people can see them. Lin Yue, a computer science student at Jiangsu University, accidentally woke up during an all-night stay in the library. Seven rules, twenty-eight human lives, and a loophole hidden in the cracks of logic - he used a programmer's thinking to crack the first dead end, but found that he had stepped into a bigger chessboard. The secret organization Night Watch reached out to him, and Black Day, who tried to weaponize the rules, stared covetously at him. And a sealed childhood memory gradually awakened - his parents locked a door into his body that should not have been opened during an experiment twenty years ago. Rules can be broken. So, can the rules be rewritten? When the entire city becomes a chessboard, Lin Yue must answer an ultimate question: Do you choose to abide by the rules, or become the one who makes them?
