Midnight Murder Record

The fog in Cangpu grows from the bottom of the river. If you take a breath, you can see the last sight of the dead. I am the adopted son of the Shen family. With these "smoke eyes" that can recall the obsession of the deceased, I work as an errand in the patrol room. They called me "Mr. Tongyin". Only I know that every time I touch a corpse, I have to use a memory as lamp oil - I forget my first love, my mother's face, and why I came to the Shen family. Until I touched a charred skeleton from twenty years ago and saw a child being carried out of the fire by an old housekeeper in the sky. Before he died, the old housekeeper said: "Master, back in the Shen Mansion..." He died before he could finish his words. Only then did I realize that the "misplaced obsessions" in all the cases pointed in the same direction - someone was deliberately feeding my eyes until I would become completely blind, crazy and unable to live past the age of thirty. There are ghosts in the fog in Cangpu, and there are people under the lamps in Shen Mansion.
