Forensic pathologist Lu Chen can see the final three minutes of the dead, but only if they died because of a “rule.”
[Rule One: Anyone who looks in a mirror at midnight will see a ghost.]
[Rule Two: Do not reply after receiving an anonymous text.]
[Rule Three: If you hear footsteps behind you, do not turn around.]
There is a strange dimension in this world known as the “Rule World.”
Those who break its rules die in bizarre ways.
Their deaths are inexplicable, and no cause can be found.
My name is Lu Chen. I'm a forensic pathologist.
During an autopsy, the blood of a “rule victim” splashed into my eyes, awakening a strange ability within me:
I can see the final three minutes before someone dies.
As long as they died because of a rule, I can see what the rule looks like through their eyes.
The first case was a midnight death at a hospital.
At three in the morning, the victim looked into a mirror, then her heart stopped.
I saw what happened in her final three minutes:
A “her” stood in the mirror and smiled at her.
Then she died.
But the strangest thing was this:
The “her” in the mirror was looking at me.
