On the night of his sister's seventh-day memorial, delivery driver Jiang Ye received an order from a funeral home.
The recipient was his sister, who had died seven days earlier.
When he reached Farewell Hall Three, he heard his sister's voice from inside: “Brother, I'm so cold. Open the door and save me.”
But the next second, the order's delivery note on his phone changed by itself to five words:
“Don't trust the me inside.”
At midnight, the funeral home became a night realm, and the living were forced to obey the rules of the dead.
Everyone struggled to survive within the rules. Only Jiang Ye could hear the warnings the dead left behind before they died.
He heard corpses lie, heard loopholes in the rules, and heard the true names of the uncanny.
A year ago, he was the Nightwatch Academy's top genius, but was branded a traitor who had caused his own sister's death.
A year later, he returned from the funeral home's night realm and tore open the truth with his own hands.
Jiang Ye had thought he was saving people.
Until his sister's voice rang out again:
“Brother, don't look for me.”
“If you take one more step, you'll see real hell.”
