Bai Ye, on the surface, is an ordinary young man who runs a 24-hour convenience store, but in fact he has the compound power of "emotional insight" and "memory retrieval". He can sense the strong emotional fluctuations left in any object or place, and "recall" some fragments of the event from it. He is not a combatant with supernatural powers, but a "detective" in the supernatural world. He belongs to a secret organization called the "Urban Mystery Investigation Bureau", which specializes in handling bizarre cases that are officially defined as "unexplainable".
The city is calm on the surface, but in reality there is an undercurrent. Ancient evil spirits, mutations caused by modern technology, out-of-control superpowers, and even creatures from the gaps in dimensions are all quietly affecting the lives of ordinary people. Bai Ye's mission is to use his unique powers to uncover the truth of these incidents and "rationalize" them without causing panic.
His cases are often full of suspense:
* A seemingly ordinary case of serial disappearances. By recalling the residual despair at the scene, he discovered that the victims were not kidnapped, but were lured into another dimension by an "emotional devourer".
* Strange cries came from a century-old house every night. He realized that they were not caused by ghosts, but a "memory entity" condensed by historical resentment, constantly repeating the tragedies of the past.
* In an incident, executives of emerging technology companies suffered a collective mental disorder. After looking back, he discovered that they had inadvertently come into contact with some kind of "source of information pollution," causing their minds to be eroded by information from another world.
