In her livestream, newcomer streamer Shen Zhiwei just wants to tell fortunes in peace and speak up for cats and dogs along the way.
But as soon as she opens her first reading, a cat cries out from inside a wall, a dog blocks the doorway, and a missing parrot keeps repeating the dead person’s final words. At first, viewers assume it is all scripted, until one old case after another is brought to the livestream by animals. Long-sealed wish vessels, voice-swapping, captured images, and the Tree of All Spirits also begin to surface.
She can hear animals’ voices, as well as the lingering echoes people have tried to hide.
The black cat Heidou coolly protects its owner, police officer Lu Xingzhou pursues the truth at every turn, and the great families of the occult world each carry old debts. The stolen voices, wishes bought and sold, and lives reduced to numbers are all waiting for a name to return.
This time, they will not stay silent.
