Hermes, a giant city of gnashing gears and whispering steam, has something stranger than criminals wandering in the shadows.
My name is Gu Yang. I traveled through time and became a trainee police officer here. I parachuted directly to the murder scene to investigate the serial murder case...
They said that I had awakened my talent and became a "trickster".
In fact, I just learned how to make this city a little crazier with lies.
When the victims' organs are turned into art displays, when the shadows of the bell tower begin to whisper, when the most trusted guardian of order weaves a magic circle to sacrifice the entire city in the middle of the night...
I realized that the best way to fight madness is to become more unpredictable.
I exchanged illusions for the truth. On this battlefield where there is no difference between reality and fiction, the only one I can believe in is myself.
Welcome to Hermes. Here, eyes will deceive you, memory will betray you, and the next person you pass by on the street may no longer be human...
