Starlight in the Mistbone Well

Piggy With A Gun

2K0

The fog in Yubei condenses all year round, like unmelted rosin. Three years ago, Ji Yuanming pushed the copper box "Jiju" down the Wugu Well. The lid of the box reflected the hole in his mother's photo. From then on, he lost love and memory. With that leap, Zhao Tinglan fell into the well on his behalf and became the "lock" of Lingxu 0-2. There is only one rule: you must pay for what you get. Three years later, in the early morning of a heavy rainstorm, she played the silent "Starlight" in front of the stringless piano at the 9178 Bar. He recognized her, but forgot his mother the next second. Every time he gets close, she loses one of her senses for him; every time her heart beats, it's a reckoning with fate. To break the curse, they sign a three-month contract: he will restore Jean, and she will retrieve his memory. Key fragments are hidden in old theaters, cable car tracks and each other's fears. When Shen Youran revealed that gathering the Seven Keys would silence the world, Zhao Tinglan wanted to escape, but Ji Yuanming was blinded by her, but still said: "I forgot the world, and I also remember the starlight behind your ears." In the end, the stage cracks opened, and the truth was that Bai Yueguang was just her substitute. Zhao Tinglan cut the strings and the cracks closed, but the price was that she would lose the sound of the piano forever. A year later in the museum, he restored the stringless instrument, and she was the only listener. There was no music in the headphones, just two heartbeats - thump, thump, thump. The fog dissipated, and the starlight fell on the eyelashes, like the silent first encounter that year.
