There is a pawnshop in Fog City on the first floor of an abandoned shopping mall. What they sell is not gold and silver, but emotions.
Anger is a jumping dark red lump of flesh, sadness is a liquid that keeps raining in a bottle, and love is a pink-white catkin that glows when floating in the air.
The boss, Cheng Mo, is twenty-six years old and born with no emotions. She helps her customers take away their pain, but she survives by feeding on their emotions. She has experienced joy, anger, sorrow, and fear, but she has never tasted the taste of "love".
Until Su Xiaotang, a reporter who specializes in writing ghost stories, broke in. She is sensitive, talkative, and the more scared she becomes, the more reluctant she is to leave. She is looking for her mother who disappeared into the fog when she was seven years old. And deep inside Cheng Mo's counter, there was a string of beads belonging to the missing woman locked away.
The fog is getting thicker and thicker. A former pawn shop owner wants to drain the entire town of its emotions. Cheng Mo had to make a choice - continue to be an emotionless person, or walk into the heart of the fog with the person who made her unlike herself.
Everything can be used here, except human thoughts.
