When the brakes of the last train at midnight tore through the rain, Jiang Ye knew that what he had crashed into was not a safe haven, but an infinite game where his life was the bet.
No one knows where this train leads, they only know that every stop is a scene of life and death - the girl in school uniform who can pick out bleeding marks, the man with glasses that can be turned into mud, the weird old lady who hides the talisman paper, and the true and false rules written on the iron plate, which can take away people's souls at any time.
Jiang Ye, an "alien" who walks on the edge of sanity and madness, can see the fragments of death in the mirror, and is better at tearing out a way out of desperate situations. He didn't believe in rules, he only believed in his own sword and brain, until he met Lu Yan, who always appeared at critical moments - was he a brother who could back to back, or was he a liar who hid the deepest secret?
From the driverless last bus, to the old school building that devours memories, from the small town where you have to wear a smiling mask, to the maze with a countdown at every step... They walked through corpses and cracked the nested traps, only to find that each copy contained clues to each other.
"Be careful of the people around you. This is not the first time he has lied to you."
Unfamiliar text messages entangled themselves like poisonous snakes. When trust began to collapse, and when the fragments of the past pieced together the shocking truth, Jiang Ye finally understood: In this game, the most terrifying thing is never the ghosts, but the darkness in the heart that even he dares not touch.
But they, who had been chess pieces on the chessboard from the beginning, decided to overturn the chessboard. On the edge of life and death, they smiled and said: "I will definitely win this game."
