Lincheng No. 1 Middle School: It is not only a prestigious school, but also a microcosm of the social power structure. The core of its "elite education" is not purely academic ability, but the ability to cultivate resource integration, network management and crisis management required for "future controllers". "Qingjin Society" is the executor and beneficiary symbol of this system.
Qingjin Society: Extremely mysterious and exclusive. The initiation ceremony is complicated and the identities of the members are kept secret. The "resources" it provides far exceed ordinary imagination (such as internally recommended places at top universities, invisible scholarships, internship opportunities for business giants, and even channels to resolve some "troublesome"). The tasks have gradually escalated from seemingly harmless "delivering information" and "observing specific objects" to "tests" involving moral and even legal gray areas (such as spreading rumors, gaining privacy, and sabotaging competitors). There is a vague shadow of outside capital or powerful forces behind the associations, which have become the makers of the "hidden rules" of the campus.
"Night Banquet" forum: An anonymous darknet-style forum that suddenly appeared. It is highly technical and difficult to track. It is not satisfied with gossip, but accurately drops heavy "secret bombs": evidence of teachers' academic misconduct, shady recordings of admissions, privileged transaction records of Qingjin Society members, and even details of student accidents that were covered up many years ago... The release rhythm is weird and the purpose is unknown, like a well-planned revenge or liquidation. Forums have quickly become a hotbed for students to vent their dissatisfaction in private, pry into privacy, and even engage in online violence. The campus atmosphere is increasingly tense amid suspicion and panic.
The atmosphere of senior high school: The pressure for further studies is unprecedentedly high, and everyone is enveloped in the uncertainty of the future. The allure of Qingjin Society's "resources" reached its peak, and the revelations about the "night banquet" completely destroyed trust. Under the seemingly calm campus, there are turbulent undercurrents, everyone is in danger, and everyone may become a "hunter" or "prey."
