Reborn seven days before the apocalypse, Chen Mo discovers he wasn’t a pawn betrayed and discarded. He is the source of Red Death, designation MO-001.
Those hunting him want his blood; those waiting for him want his life. In this life, he’ll lay a trap over these seven days: send Zhao Kai climbing, only to make him fall, and turn Zhou Mingyuan from humanity’s savior into its public enemy.
Then he’ll head north to meet the man who has been waiting for him for three years. Fang Hongjian, MO-000. He infected himself, then infected Chen Mo. He’s waiting for Chen Mo to come to him and ask one question: In this life, whose sake are you living for?
Fang Hongjian is tapping on the table. The rhythm goes: three taps, a pause, two taps, a pause, then three more. Chen Mo pushes open the door.
