"You let me go once, and I save you once. Now, we are clear."
"No, from the moment you choose to stay, we will never be able to figure it out."

Oritis Manor, a cursed name.
Detective Nan Zhuhuai received a mysterious invitation letter and entered the manor on the pretext of investigating a disappearance. However, he was forced to participate in a bloody survival game - becoming a "survivor" and struggling to survive under the pursuit of regulators.
In the first game, he met the most dangerous regulator Xia Kongming.
Xia Kongming is a legend in the manor, elegant, crazy and invincible. He could have killed Nan Zhuhuai easily, but he deliberately let him go, leaving only a frivolous taunt: "Next time we meet, I hope you can make me happy."
Nan Zhuhuai hated being teased, but she hated being cared about out of control even more.
As the game progresses, Nan Zhuhuai discovers that there is a deeper conspiracy hidden behind the manor - all participants are experimental subjects, and Xia Kongming was once a survivor.
The two went from hostility to cooperation, from temptation to trust, walking on the edge of life and death. Nan Zhuhuai took advantage of the loopholes in the rules to form a team with Xia Kongming, while Xia Kongming gradually developed an unspeakable obsession with this calm and stubborn detective in repeated confrontations.
However, the master of the manor will not allow the chess pieces to escape control.
When the truth was revealed, Nan Zhuhuai discovered that he was actually part of the experiment, and behind Xia Kongming's madness, there was a deeper despair.
"If you can't escape, then destroy this place together."
In the final game, they risk everything against the rules of the estate.
