Chen Mo, a 23-year-old bookstore worker, accidentally picked up a broken kerosene lamp.
Outside the city, there is the "Wish Realm" condensed by obsession - fragments of different time and space hidden in the last subway train and old cinemas.
The unfulfilled wishes of the deceased are turned into "spiritual wishes", and only the awakened can travel through them, fulfill the wishes of the deceased souls, and collect the power of wishes.
He restarts the day at midnight every night, and time can only be advanced by completing a specific last wish.
The kerosene lamp contains a code lock for the 81 chapters of the Tao Te Ching. Each chapter unlocked releases a rule of reality.
The remaining pages at the bottom of the lamp look like a book of life and death, recording the names of the spirits and the progress of their wishes.
He is not a hero, he just wants to find the meaning of his existence in the regrets of others.
