My name is Zhao Qiwen. I worked the night shift at a convenience store to save money to go to Yunnan, but I discovered another side of the world.
Guests pay their bills from memory, mysterious numbers appear in the refrigerator every night, and behind the green-painted door is a crack leading to the "mezzanine." I am awakening abilities that I shouldn't have, and the hunter organization wants to eliminate me, but Uncle Zhang has been waiting for someone to take over for thirty years.
Now, I have three paths in front of me: becoming a store manager, accepting surveillance, or eating the Forgotten Seed and leaving completely.
I had enough money saved on my bank card for my trip, but I found I couldn't leave. Because some nights, once you step into them, you can never return to pure daylight.
I am Zhao Qiwen, the night watchman tonight. This is my story.
—If you walk into a quiet convenience store late at night, complete the transaction without asking questions.
