Introduction to the work "Palm Print Last Bus 044"
The last bus on Route 044 in Cangnan City is a weird legend in the city - it always stops at a non-existent stop, the passengers under surveillance disappear out of thin air, and there are still scorched palm prints on the windows.
Lu Chen, a fault analyst at the Municipal Transportation Bureau, specializes in investigating the "abnormality" of this train. Three years ago, my mother disappeared on Route 044, leaving only a two-second voice message with a burnt smell and an old pocket watch engraved with "044". He modified a fault detector that can detect fluctuations in the body's consciousness. The mother's ID number and "12 consciousness gaps" often pop up on the screen. Even if his hands were shaking while holding his pocket watch when boarding the car, and even if he had to face his mother's blurry figure on the window, he vowed to find his mother and leave with the trapped undead in the car.
Su Nian, a reporter from the city newspaper "Urban Strange News", has exclusively followed Route 044 for half a year. She chose to get on the bus at the "Old Crematorium Site Stop" at 23:50, and used a modified camera to take pictures of weird things that ordinary equipment could not capture - translucent human figures, gray-pink handprints, and even a clear profile of Lu Chen's mother. Although she was afraid of the "rustling" sound of the car body and the black box that automatically popped open, the letters from the families of the missing passengers supported her: she wanted to reveal the secret of Route 044 for those who were waiting for news.
One is looking for his mother to pursue the truth, and the other is searching for clues. The two meet on the last bus of Route 044, and face the undead in the car together, vowing to bring the hidden truth and trapped souls to light.
