[Secrets of the Republic of China] [Order Walker] [Chinese Weirdness] [Archival Cthulhu] [Conceptual Authority] [Spy War]
Traveling through 1934, I became a beggar in Zhabei, Shanghai.
He originally wanted to go to New China, but was rescued by the mysterious household registration police and became his apprentice.
Only then did I realize that household registration in the Republic of China was not simple.
White files record life and death, yellow files record demons,
The red file seals strange objects, the black file...
Hidden is the horror of being erased.
My master is the "archival tailor" who stitches together the cracks in reality with his pen.
After his disappearance, I was forced to take up the mantle.
The Japanese onmyoji wanted to usurp the country's destiny, the gangsters of the Youth Gang made a substitute for household registration, and the foreigners in the concession were spying on the way of heaven... And I, with the help of a trick book that can see through the "real name", worked among all the forces.
When the night falls on Shanghai Beach, the door of the archives room slowly opens.
Tonight, which "non-person" should I apply for household registration for, and which taboo should I seal up forever?
