The global horror game Abyss has arrived, and players are losing themselves in the roles of various monsters to gain power. Jiang Mian, a former criminal profiler, possesses a rare ability called Criminal Empathy. He can profile not only the living, but also “read” the lingering obsessions of the dead and monsters, recreating their criminal minds and motives.
While every other player fights the supernatural with brute force, he takes a perilous path: empathizing with monsters and becoming them. His Ripper is more elegant than the original, and the Mirror Fairy he impersonates is more terrifying than the real one. He uses this ability to solve countless seemingly impossible cold cases, earning the title “God of Roleplay” across the internet.
Until one day, the game’s most mysterious S-rank entity, the Collector, seeks him out and whispers in his ear:
“You play the part so well… But what makes you think you aren’t bait I tossed out?”
