Lawyer Yuxuan spent forty years faking eight fake deaths until he found the ashes engraved with the door number of his high school dormitory in the funeral parlor - mixed with the nails he had cut yesterday. When his body grew back to 18 years old, his mobile phone received a video from Kai Xi: In the burning dormitory, his dead friend was wearing 2023 sneakers.
Returning to the ruins of No. 3 Middle School, time and space have become a furnace of evidence:
- Eight dolls in the air-raid shelter play different versions of the Night of the Dead in a loop
- The KGB pocket watch left by his father showed that he was the first subject of the arson case
- The temperature of the flame increases with the number of lies. Confession will burn yourself in the parallel world.
Nine people are trapped in a Möbius strip of evil, and each survivor survives by devouring the time of others. When Yuxuan saw his 18-year-old self holding up a lighter in the fire scene mirror, he finally understood: the so-called survival was just the first prisoner caught in a closed loop.
