Chen Du set up a fortune-telling stall at the entrance of the old city alley.
The neighbors only know that he can tell accurately, but they don't know that what he really counts is not people's lives.
The thirteenth extra stop for the midnight bus.
Another self walking out of the mirror.
A family curse that will kill one person in twenty years.
A time loop that keeps repeating the same day...
When strange things become urban legends, he is the only one who can "communicate" with them.
A pair of naturally cunning eyes that can see rules and numerology that are invisible to ordinary people.
The hexagram skills passed down from his family can help evil ghosts insist on orders and negotiate deals with ghosts.
"You want to be freed? You can, but you have to pay a price."
"You want revenge? That's fine, but you have to abide by the contract."
"You want to exist? Then, let's talk about the conditions."
Chen Du wanders on the edge of Yin and Yang, using lifespan, memory, and senses as bargaining chips to resolve strange incidents one after another.
Until he discovers that his family's secret is far more terrifying than imagined——
The "big conspiracy" that has been suppressed for generations is about to awaken, and he is the last key.
When the whole city's reflection begins to squirm,
When the world in the mirror penetrates into reality,
When all contracts are settled.
Chen Du lit three sticks of incense, shook the blood-stained copper coins, and said slowly to the face in the mirror that was exactly the same as his but full of malice:
"Come, let me do the final calculation for you."
"No matter when your soul is gone, no matter how I... Change your fate against the will of heaven."
