Medical doctor Lin Yueyao stood at the pinnacle of honor, only to plunge into an abyss after an unforeseeable chain of disasters.
A patient suddenly developed a malignant fever. The emergency medication had somehow been switched for a deadly contraindicated drug, and the heart monitor went dark at the crucial moment.
A flood of headlines calling her a “murderous doctor” swallowed her life whole.
Her suspension order lay coldly on her desk. She fled the city and took refuge in a forgotten old manor.
On a stormy night, a flash of lightning tore across the sky screen and struck an ancient bronze book glowing faintly in the study.
As blinding light swallowed her vision, Lin Yueyao felt only searing pain and a dizzying sense of weightlessness.
The remnants of the modern world peeled away, piece by piece, in the electric current.
