When police consultant Qin Ye takes on the seventh bizarre disappearance case, he uncovers a terrifying pattern: every missing person received a warning that “the cycle is about to begin” before vanishing. At midnight, as he tries to dig deeper into the clues, the whole city twists before his eyes.

In his pocket, his police badge has turned into a bloodstained invitation.

“Rule One: Leave the manor before daybreak.
“Rule Two: Do not wake the sleepers.
“Rule Three: Keep quiet.
“Violators will be erased.”
