The Midnight Worry-Relief Shop

Synopsis of The Midnight Worry-Relief Shop

This convenience store is open only from 12:00 a.m. to 4:44 a.m. Its shelves are lined with bizarre products: newspapers that predict death, canned goods that store memories, and electronic candies that parasitize the human body. Each chapter tells a standalone story. Cheng Ye, a trainee shop clerk, encounters all kinds of strange incidents, from coded plagues to time loops, with every mystery concealing a link to the main plot. When the countdown on his name badge reaches zero, he'll discover the most terrifying truth of all: he's been one of the products on the shelves all along.
