[Urban Supernatural Horror | Rules-Based Horror | Outsmarting and Turning the Tables | No Romance | Ensemble Cast]
By the time the Paranormal Investigation Bureau arrives at the scene, the victim has been dead for seven days, yet is still in the living room making scam calls to themself.
At three in the morning, the phone rings right on time.
Answer it, and you might die.
Don't answer it, and you might die too.
The rules are crystal clear, but they leave no way out alive.
While everyone else is wondering how to follow the rules, Zhou Zhiye has already started looking into something else:
Rules are dead. Surely whatever made them can't be completely brainless, right?
And if it has a brain, it can be fooled.
So while others enter an anomaly and scramble to find a way out,
Zhou Zhiye enters an anomaly and gets busy setting traps for the supernatural.
Su Jianzhi's job is to find the one real rule among a pile of real and fake ones.
Tang Songhe's job is to nail down the facts that have already happened.
As time goes on, the Paranormal Investigation Bureau's incident reports get thicker and thicker.
The legal department finally faces a question no one thought to ask after years on the job: Is it illegal to scam a supernatural entity?
