The Phantom Detective of the Floating City

In the floating city of New Cui, where technology and magic intertwine, aether powers hovering marvels, while cybernetic augmentations blur the line between human and machine.

When law and order cannot reach the city's shadows, another kind of "justice" is needed.

Lu Li, a former Inquisition investigator whose promising career was destroyed, is now a disillusioned private detective scraping by in the city center. He can see echoes of the past: powerful emotions and energy imprints left behind at crime scenes. This cursed gift is his only weapon, and the nightmare he can never escape.

A baffling locked-room murder, in which the victim's "soul evaporated," drags him back into a dark whirlpool. Forbidden psychic pacts, deranged human experiments, and a secret cult lurking among the city's elite... Every clue points to the disaster three years ago that cost him everything.

This time, he chooses not to run.

Teaming up with a mysterious underground mechanic, clashing with the rigid city guards, and navigating the powerful factions, Lu Li will use his eyes to see through layer upon layer of fog and face the... echoes from the abyss.
