Lin Jian, an intern architect, would not have imagined that the bronze armillary sphere in the ancient tomb of the Warring States Period, which can swallow starlight, would be quantumly entangled with the rare earth crystals growing in the chest of the deceased. Forensic doctor Su Tang discovered strange star map projections on the corpse's retina, while detective Shen Yi tracked down a private equity fund that was secretly acquiring seismic monitoring stations along the Yangtze River.
A crisis that subverts the laws of physics is spreading:
The glass curtain wall in Lujiazui reflects the street scene of the Republic of China
The last subway passes through a ghost station that does not exist
