On the surface, this book is about ghost stories about survival, but in its heart, it is about "the question mark of whether a person can get his own name back after being written into someone else's account." Jiang Lian was a house inspector who only looked at evidence and did not believe in ghosts and gods. He entered an old house that was about to be demolished and died in it according to the old rules. After his death, he was not reincarnated. Instead, he was absorbed by the rules of the old house and filled the vacancy of the previous housekeeper. From that moment on, his name was removed from the register in the underworld, and he became a living person who observed, followed and kept accounts for this house. He thought he was guarding a house, but later he realized that he was guarding the names drawn on the album - including his own. The theme falls into one sentence: In a place where "rules" are used to eat people, if you choose to use the rules as a knife to protect people, you have to use yourself as a cushion.
