Three years ago, Chen Ye’s sister ordered food late one night and vanished without a trace.
Three years later, Chen Ye becomes a night-shift delivery rider.
He discovers that every night, between midnight and four, the city receives a special kind of order:
Deliveries to “Places of Rules” that have no real address.
The instructions read: Follow the rules below, or face the consequences.
“Rule 1: No matter what you hear, don’t look back.”
“Rule 2: Don’t believe that the person receiving the order is human.”
“Rule 3: If a rule is wrong, the only one you can trust is the rule that treats you as a person.”
Other riders deliver food for money.
Chen Ye delivers food for his life.
But some orders aren’t his to refuse.
