The thirteenth year of the Republic of China, Shanghai. Ye Wanxing, an orphan girl from an old watch shop in the French Concession, locked the glass cabinet at seven o'clock every night. However, one rainy night, she waited for a man with a damaged pocket watch and a gunshot wound hidden under his military jacket. He said he wanted to repair the watch, but the date of the previous owner's death was engraved on the inside of the case. The gears of time are turning, undercurrents are surging in the concession, her watch shop has become an information transfer station, and his pocket watch contains key evidence that subverts the chessboard. When the miniature camera was pinned to the buckle of the cheongsam, and when the ticking of the clock turned into a countdown to action, she discovered that it was not just time that needed to be repaired, but also the stolen encounter of two misplaced souls in troubled times.
