[Near future + solving crimes + no system + fantasy powers + suspense]
Emotions kill, and I'm the city's detective.
In the fluorescent city of Yinghuo, skyscrapers and old houses coexist.
People frown at the weather forecast that has an emotional index that exceeds the standard, but they don't know that the monster that is growing invisibly is crawling in the shadows.
My name is Lin Duan, a detective who is too poor to pay his electricity bill.
I have two kinds of bullets in my revolver: one for people and one for things that shouldn't exist.
Until the anchor named You Xiaoxing broke into my office and pointed the camera at my hole-in-the-wall sofa:
"Detective Lin, a dark shadow automatically appears on the wall of my house at two fifteen every night."
The millions of viewers in her live broadcast regarded this as the latest urban legend.
Only me and my robot dog detected the anomaly.
I should have settled the incident quietly with a single blast.
But You Xiaoxing insisted on recording the truth throughout the whole process, and her lens was able to capture the outline of the virtual spirit.
When we uncovered the truth about the unjust case, the shadows in the wall screamed, and the lights in the entire Old Yuan District went out at the same time.
The special forces were on their way here, but the live broadcast signal was stuck in front of millions of viewers.
You Xiaoxing raised the camera tremblingly: "Now... Can I still turn off the live broadcast?"
I pulled the trigger and said to everyone behind the camera:
"Welcome to the real world."
Here, every fear, anger, and sadness you have may turn into the next monster. "
And I am the only one walking between light and darkness, cleaning up the emotional residue in this city.
Only this time, between my gun and her lens, who will reveal the truth that shouldn't be seen first?
