Hints About Everything

Thirty years after the resurgence of spiritual energy, martial artists stand high above the clouds, while ordinary people scrape by in the shadow of rifts.

Chen Ye, a night-shift deliveryman who failed his martial arts entrance exam, has a missing father, a gravely ill mother, and a younger sister still attending an ordinary school. Desperate to raise the money for his mother's medication by the next day, he accepts a high-paying midnight delivery to Qingchuan Road subway station, abandoned for ten years.

Who could have guessed this delivery wasn't takeout, but a ticket to a rift?

Corrupted monsters, abandoned platforms, missing couriers, inscriptions his father left behind ten years ago... On the brink of death, Chen Ye awakens the “All Things Guidance System.” From then on, he can hear the hidden voices within objects, environments, monsters, and traces of the past.

The discarded crystal cores everyone else overlooks? He can hear their true value.

The deadly traps everyone else avoids? He can hear the one way out.

The cold cases buried for a decade? He can uncover them bit by bit from the city's echoes.

But the System never gives him answers, only choices.

When the lives of the underclass are assigned a price, when wealthy martial arts schools trade an entire city of people for resources to advance, and when the truth behind his father's disappearance slowly comes to light, Chen Ye finally understands:

Surviving isn't all he has to do.

He must also make sure the people swallowed by the city are heard again.
