Rules of the Strange? Isn't This My Alma Mater?

(Not a mindless power fantasy + logical deduction + one female lead + two equally strong leads + semi-ensemble cast)

This is an ancient high school that has stood for ages in a world of supernatural rules and strange tales.

Today, it welcomes a group of unusual students.

What awaits them: a maze of complicated rules, or horrifying and vicious supernatural tales?

My name is Liu An.

As you can see, through a twist of fate, I ended up at this strange school.

Rules written in blood and the gaze of terrifying beings constantly remind me just how eerie and frightening this school is.

The “gardener” who plants students in the earth,

The dorm supervisor who knocks on doors at midnight to claim lives,

The school doctor who robs and murders.

Everything around me reminds me of the kind of world I’m trapped in.

But this school looks so much like my old high school.

Every corner resembles the place I remember.

Even the teachers in my class have familiar faces.

Why is that?

You are from Jiuzhou.

The rules and strange tales are your enemy!
