My father is dead.
The family's financial situation suddenly changed, so my mother took me to escape to my grandma's house in the countryside. She always stared at me with fearful eyes, as if if I asked one more question, the secret would tear the family apart.
Until I met my childhood playmate Li Musi again, in the flower room of his house, I encountered the truth——
My father's death was not an accident at all.
What's even more frightening is that I awakened the ability of "perceiving death" in my family's bloodline. The cost of Li Musi's use of the space crystal to "control death" was that every time he used it, cracks would spread and his life would be shortened.
————
I backed away in horror.
"What are you afraid of?" Li Musi played with the crystal and wrote lightly, "This is just a countdown to death."
But when the shadow of the dispute between the "hundred-year-old family" in the small town loomed over me, I realized: some truths are like a rainstorm, and people who are papery cannot bear it at all.
