At fifteen, when pain and miracles coexist, four teenagers make a secret pact with time.
On a summer morning at a prestigious middle school, class monitor Lin Xiaoman knocks over transfer student Shen Zhiyan's paint box. Amid the clash of cobalt blue and lime green, she glimpses cicada-wing-shaped burn scars on his wrist. He, in turn, precisely recites the encrypted page number from her childhood diary. This accident was foretold five years ago in a faded astrological record.
When the cicadas' cries tear through the school's peaceful facade:
▷ Peeling paint on the planetarium dome conceals the code to a fire
▷ An anonymously exchanged sketchbook reveals the universe as seen by someone with abnormal color vision
▷ A misaligned time capsule beneath the old pagoda tree spits out rusted truths
The four misfits are forced to form an alliance:
• Lin Xiaoman holds the marine chronometer her father left behind, tracking her missing mother's route beneath her perfect facade
• Shen Zhiyan uses his color-blind eyes to reconstruct the spectrum, but his paintbrush keeps betraying the laws of physics
• Zhou Ye's champion sneakers trample plagiarism accusations as he plots a poetic coordinate system on the tactics board
• Su Wanwan transforms shards of porcelain into starry glaze, while an ancient tea whisk stirs up the whirlpool of AI-composed music
