At twenty-two, Shen Qingyuan was just an ordinary girl who had recently graduated.
On the night of her graduation dinner, she missed the subway and had no choice but to board the last No. 13 bus. There was no driver. The passengers wore blank expressions, and the doors slammed shut behind her. That door split her life in two forever.
The bus stopped in front of a pitch-black building. Two blood-red characters were carved above the entrance: The Haunted Domain.
A mechanical voice spoke in her ear:
“Cursed one, enter the eternal night. Complete the trials. The living may stay; the dead will vanish.”
Every 72 hours, she was dragged into a strange instance: blood seeped from lockers in an abandoned school building; a companion disappeared in an island lighthouse; a vengeful spirit lurked in the mirror of a midnight barbershop; and an endless cycle of death trapped her in a hospital with no way out. Each instance was a carefully designed trap, and every step could trigger a deadly threat.
