"Are you sure you're awake?"
Xu Meng's world has three layers:
The first: Her grandmother dies on a rainy night while saving her.
The second: A young man named Zhou Mo tries to rewrite fate.
The third: Her body slowly grows cold in a hospital bed.
As a milky-white marble rolls away, the girl in the blue dress in the mirror slowly raises her head...
"Can you hear the rain now?"
When she discovers that her "savior" never existed at all
Xu Meng remembers her grandmother dying to save her, but makes an unexpected discovery:
? In every photograph, her grandmother's face has been corroded away.
? The man who claims to be a doctor has scars on his wrist like Zhou Mo's.
? The marble reveals the words, "Don't trust your memories of the third day."
A brutal mystery about self-deception, whose final scene in the mirror will overturn everything you thought you knew.
It turns out we've always been submerged in the sound of rain in our memories. The rescues we believed in were no more than futile ripples, raindrops falling into an even greater downpour.
Theme: The rain outside suddenly grows heavier. Xu Meng buries her face in her grandmother's pillow and smells medicine, hair oil, and a faint trace of decay. She remembers someone at the funeral home murmuring yesterday, "The organs were too badly ruptured." At that moment, a raindrop fell inside her collar, as cold as the fingers her grandmother would never again use to stroke her.
