Wutong Apartment in Linjiang City hides urban weird rumors that have been circulating for many years. As the rumors were quietly fermenting in the darkness of the Internet, six strangers with unrelated identities and occupations each received a sealed anonymous invitation letter stamped with Wutong fire paint. The letter did not include the sender, and only the name and apartment address led six strangers to this suspicious apartment.
Led by an agency, a group of people looked at houses and selected houses. They met a strange girl who appeared inexplicably, and the six of them formed a temporary friendship. At the suggestion of the agent, everyone went to apartment A on the top floor, which had the best view. Just as everyone was leaning on the floor-to-ceiling windows and looking out at the building, a mysterious man wearing a black and white plaid windbreaker suddenly fell from the sky and landed heavily on the external storage platform on the third floor.
The six people who witnessed the fall were horrified, but the agent who was traveling with them denied seeing anything unusual and insisted that nothing happened outside the window. The people who had doubts rushed to the third floor for confirmation. The platform was empty, with no corpses or a drop of blood. The cleaning manager who had been cleaning for two full hours also testified that no loud noise was heard during the whole process and the entire floor was stable as usual.
None of the staff in the apartment or surrounding residents knew anything about this mysterious fall. It seemed as if the man in the trench coat who had just fallen to death was just an illusion produced by six people simultaneously. But the six people knew clearly that the falling figure really existed. Why can only those who came by invitation get a glimpse of the murder, while all the locals in the apartment are isolated? What conspiracy is hidden behind the fire-painted invitation, what is the origin of the fallen person who disappeared out of thin air, and the strange truth of Wutong Apartment that has been hidden for many years is slowly being revealed with the visit of six people.
Purpose: Using a closed apartment as the stage, we use the strange murder case that was witnessed by everyone but no physical evidence is available to explore the possibility that what we see may not be true. We use the shell of ghost stories to dig into the dusty old tragedy in the apartment's past. The six people invited are all related to the past. They were deliberately gathered by the invitation letter and were forced to step by step uncover the sins and truths that had been buried collectively by the apartment residents.
