At night in Nanhua City, transactions can be decided, but death can be covered up.
Fang Ye wears a mask to do notarization. The moment he presses the recorder, the gun will be lowered. As long as it is in compliance with the regulations, everything can be handled cleanly. But he also had some irregularities: when he saw the name of Shuiqing Technology, his stomach turned upside down. The figure in the nightmare was the murderer he had seen with his own eyes.
Yin Lun dragged his suitcase and transferred to Nanhua Middle School. He thought he would just change his studies to a place where he could check the inside story, but on the first day of school, he bumped into his roommate and fell to his death. The deceased's computer was cleared, the belongings were recovered by the affairs department, and the school nurse carried them away. There was no call to the police, no questioning, and even the parents seemed not to exist. The boy who could always detect danger in advance happened to sit next to him.
Nanhua High School is more than a school, it is a meeting point. Black markets, money laundering, experiments, alternative medicines, shell companies... Every line points to the same person.
What really introduced Yinlun to the chessboard was an anonymous email. The organizer is kind-hearted, but the knife has been sharpened long ago. He wants to use the crown prince to pierce the sky with his own hands so that the old king can be replaced.
The oil in the pot was boiling loudly, and the drunk next door started to make trouble. Yin Lun pinched Fang Ye's trembling wrist, and Fang Ye whispered: "They are going to take action." And the world slowly emerged.
Intent: When transactions are ruled legal and when deaths are filed quickly, order no longer protects people, but turns people into manageable costs. Nanhua Middle School presents a crueler reality. Violence does not need to be out of control. It only needs process, authority and silence. Yin Lun entered the chess game by tracing the death of his parents, and learned to take power between being used and counter-used; Fang Ye struggled with trauma and mission, becoming both an enforcer and a victim. Destiny in giant systems proves over and over again how individuals are reshaped by the power structure - trust, desire, redemption and betrayal may all be just part of the game. The judgment of good and evil seems to be insignificant in the face of the cost of power change and institutional form. When cleaning, whitewashing, and mergers become necessary stages in history, the real question becomes—who is qualified to define a better order, and who will be sacrificed again in the new order.
