Ji Lin was born with a lack of emotions. Fear, sadness, despair—to him, these emotions were just words in the dictionary, until that day when he mistakenly entered a convenience store at midnight.
The cans on the shelves opened by themselves, and the computer at the checkout counter played the surveillance video from three days ago, in which "he" was smiling at the camera. Ji Lin expressionlessly tore off the yellow notice on the wall and read the first rule: [If you see him coming in after one o'clock in the morning, you must pretend not to recognize him].
He made it out alive. But strange events are spreading in reality, and the officially established "Strange Investigation Bureau" issued an invitation to him. Shu Ran - the girl who helped him block the back door at the convenience store - handed over a contract: "We need people who are not afraid."
Ji Lin signed. Not for money, not for justice. He just wanted to know if his heart, which had never beaten before, would finally feel something when real fear came.
