After the apocalypse, Lin Yanqiu takes shelter in an abandoned school.
People in this world are gradually losing their emotions.
Those who lose all emotion grow black membranes between their wings and turn into “Heartless Ones,” creatures that hunt human hearts.
And every survivor knows one strange rule of survival:
The first floor is the safest.
It’s there that Lin Yanqiu meets a man named Wen Jin.
Wen Jin keeps him company.
He warns him of danger.
He answers Lin Yanqiu’s questions about the apocalypse.
He even waits for him by the stairs at night.
Lin Yanqiu gradually gets used to having him around.
Until one day, he asks the other survivors:
“What room does that man who’s always sitting by the stairs live in?”
They look at him strangely.
“What man?”
An ordinary, levelheaded student × a supernaturally powerful nonhuman big shot
Lin Yanqiu × Wen Jin
