After running a horror experience store for three years, I have seen too many adults who "don't dare to cry."
Executives in suits and ties cry for their laid-off father in "Echoes from the Factory";
Internet celebrity female anchor, in "Wet Dreams in the Mirror", regains the self that was cut off by plastic surgery;
Even my heartless clerk Su Xiaoxiao was in a daze late at night holding the comb of "senior sister in red".
They all thought they were here for excitement.
Only I know that they came looking for a safe place to collapse.
Until I discovered the secret of this city——
Strong emotions can create "emotional afterimages," commonly known as hauntings.
My ability is not to exorcise ghosts, but to "emotional translation": understand their obsessions and fill up the unfulfilled regrets.
All the weaver girl in the comb wants is "your efforts are seen";
The boy in the phone booth was just waiting for a "Grandma doesn't blame you";
The young lady of the Republic of China in the mirror just wanted someone to tell her, "He was still thinking of you before he died in battle."
I thought that was all.
Until I discovered the "Mirror Abyss" where ten living people were trapped under the TV Tower.
I also discovered the truth that my grandfather had hidden: our Lin family has been the "emotional scavengers" of this city for generations.
Now, the gluttons are awake, the grudges are here, and ten families are waiting for their loved ones to come home.
I held the heart mirror left behind by my grandfather and smiled at my friends behind me:
"Let's go, work overtime tonight."
"Go take those trapped cries home."
