Backlit Convenience Store

Xu Xingliu works the night shift at 711, using the equipment in the school's mixing room to resurrect songs that never existed in his previous life one by one. The strings were soft sound sources, the drum kit was dynamically thin, and the monitoring environment was wrong - he thought these songs could only ever be "passing". Until the girl named Shen Wanyue put on the headphones at four o'clock in the morning. She heard something he didn't expect: it wasn't that there was light ahead, but that even if there was no light, you could keep walking. "What's the name of this song?" She asked. Xu Xingliu looked at the pale fluorescent lights of the convenience store and said, "There's no name yet." In this world where culture has been reset, all songs are blank and all encounters are lost and found. And "Backlight" was the first name he gave her.
