Pei Che's furthest trip in his life was taking a floating train to a neighboring country to find his biological sister.
The road was too long and he fell asleep. When I woke up, the train arrived and my sister's missed call on my phone was lit.
But this city was weird - in his country, it was busiest at night, but here it was so quiet that it felt like it had been hollowed out.
He searched all the way according to the location given by his parents. His sister's voice on the phone suddenly changed: "Run to Guangming Avenue, quickly!"
It was eerily dark and the streets were empty. He carried the suitcase and ran wildly, but the floor under his feet suddenly seemed to be swallowed up - a black monster broke out of the ground.
At the critical moment, a black shadow rose into the sky, holding a glowing white scythe in its hand, cutting off the monster like the God of Death: "You are Pei Shuang's younger brother, Pei Che, right? Your sister asked me to pick you up. Follow me."
The man was dressed in black, with only his sickle shining white. The road behind him was brightly illuminated by light panels that lit up within ten steps.
Pei Che later learned that this city was the base of the Night Messengers. They sent monsters from all over the world here to eliminate them and protect the humans outside the city.
And his sister Pei Shuang is the captain here.
The suspended train to the outside world only runs once a year.
——In other words, he will stay under Si Ming's nose for a whole year.
One year is not a long time. Long enough for him to awaken the power of light and space sealed by his sister, long enough for him to see clearly that Si Ming was the "half brother" picked up by his sister when he was still a rookie, long enough for him to see the black-clad Death God as his own way back in the monster's blood and light.
