(Ghost stories about rules + urban thriller + advent of rules + unsystematic wit + Cthulhu)
[The city is suddenly under rule, and the smile at the convenience store is actually a lifeline!
Without warning, "rule pollution" enveloped the entire city - everyday places such as convenience stores, middle schools, and hospitals turned into fatal traps overnight. Su Ming, an ordinary programmer, saw the horror of rules with his own eyes on the night his sister mysteriously disappeared: mineral water in convenience stores is corrosive, surveillance will tamper with memories, and even the instruction "you must smile after two o'clock in the morning" contains a curse that assimilates people into the carrier of rules. What's even worse is that these advent rules will evolve on their own. Just by painting a fixed smile with lipstick to break the game, the rules of the next scene will become a dynamic maze.
In order to save his sister who was abducted by the "Night Watch", Su Ming could only break through the rules and regulations: in Yongye Middle School, he relied on the school uniform number to crack the rules of the Mobius Ring alien space; in the Hanging Hospital, he used electrocardiograms to decipher the Morse code of the operating room lights; the whole process was unsystematic and relied entirely on knowledge of physics and mathematics.
As golden lines appeared in the pupils, the "Loophole Notes" left by my sister finally revealed the truth about the advent of the rules: This was basically the awakening conspiracy of the old ruler "Tavel", and the entire city was being alienated into its kingdom of rules. During the final showdown, Su Ming found out that his sister had noticed the loopholes in the rules and was deliberately caught as bait, leading him to find the only breaking point of the "logical paradox".
When the rules begin to flow in the opposite direction, the sealed terror is still lurking in the darkness - is this disaster caused by the rules really over?
