[Two Female Leads + Chinese-Style Mystery + Case-of-the-Week Investigations + Urban Tales]
I can "hear" the threads of cause and effect behind all things.
She can "sever" the source of any anomalous power.
I'm a cultural relic restorer who studies ancient objects and sees through people's hearts. With my psychic ability to trace causes, I uncover every hidden regret.
She's a retired special forces soldier who fought on the battlefield and acts decisively. Her bloodline suppresses evil and puts an end to every strange calamity.
We're recruited by a secret organization that deals with "anomalous incidents" in modern cities.
A beast devouring hope in an unfinished building, an ancient divine chariot that creates a maze in the subway tunnels, a "spirit of literary fortune" feeding on students' anxiety on the eve of the college entrance exams...
Every anomaly in this city is a repressed social emotion.
She ends tragedies. I understand them.
We're partners, comrades-in-arms, and the only answers either of us has in this world.
Until an ancient organization seeking to overturn everything emerges from the shadows...
I discover that there's a secret between us, too.
One of them reads the past; the other severs the future.
Every secret in this city is waiting for them to uncover it.
