Butterfly Bone Brand! Umbilical Knot! Moonlight Ring!

During physics class, my school uniform spontaneously burst into flames.

Blue light crept out from the collar and formed a snake on my chest, biting its own tail. My homeroom teacher, Zhou Wen, told me to go home and find my mother, saying, “It's time to reel in the kite.”

But when my mom saw my father's distress signal in the washing machine, her hands trembled so much she could barely hold her soup bowl.

Later, I learned the truth: she had 21 clones scattered across 21 parallel universes. The “Mom” who cooked for me every day, No. 17, had only one day left to live.

“Don't trust anyone,” my father said in a video. “Including me.”

But who should I trust?

The clone who was willing to take a bullet for me?

My deskmate Su He, who could decode a warning from a Trisolarian civilization?

Or the masked man who claimed to be my dad, yet wanted to destroy my world?

They all say I'm the key.

But nobody told me that keys can bite back. Luck.
