In an inconspicuous corner of the city, there is a small shop that only rents memories.
Lin Yan, a 23-year-old illustrator, always comes here to rent clips related to her childhood. She always vaguely remembers that she had a sister in a white dress when she was a child, but her parents said she was an only child. The store owner, Mr. Zhou, wore an old hat and always looked at her as if he were looking at someone else. When sorting the films, he would secretly rub the faint ring mark on the ring finger of his left hand. No one knew what was in the locked iron box in the cabinet.
The bartender Azhe is a frequent visitor to the store. He rents a hundred kinds of happiness from others and changes his experience every day, but his body is becoming translucent day by day. He advised Lin Yan to "don't take other people's memories too seriously," but when Lin Yan rented a memory under the cherry blossom tree and discovered that the necklace worn by the girl in the white skirt was exactly the same as the silver lock she had worn since childhood, Azhe suddenly stopped her.
Whose unspoken past is hidden in those rented memories? The sister Lin Yan is looking for, the iron box held by Lao Zhou Shou, and the secret hidden by Azhe may have been tied together by the same period of time.
Concept: The concept of this story mainly has three points: First, the memories of others are ultimately illusory, and the life created by oneself is real, just like Lin Yan finally no longer rents memories, but uses a paintbrush to record his own days. Second, there is no point in escaping pain, and salvation lies in confronting it. Azhe relies on the happiness of others to avoid guilt, and his body is almost transparent. It is not until he faces his memory that he regains his physical form. Third, the true bond is hidden deep in the heart and will not be cut off by memory. Lao Zhou and Lin Yan recognized each other through clues such as silver locks and cherry blossoms despite their lost memories.
