After I Saw the Anomalies

Shen Du never imagined that one day he would die in an accident whose cause he could not even understand.

When he opened his eyes again, the sky was stained dark red. The streets were deserted, his phone had no signal, and time was frozen forever at 2:17 a.m.

And his shadow seemed to have awakened before he did.

A bizarre bus, faceless pedestrians, inexplicable spaces, and altered memories... This unfamiliar world hides countless entities known as "anomalies." Each follows its own rules. Some can be investigated, while others will stare back at you the instant you realize they exist.

At the brink of life and death, Shen Du awakened the one and only special ability: Absolute Observation.

He can see a brief glimpse of the future.

Three seconds from now, who will strike, where danger will appear, and how he himself will die.

Yet foreseeing the future does not mean controlling it. The future can change, observations can be wrong, and those incomprehensible entities seem capable of looking through his eyes and glimpsing his world.

To survive, Shen Du joins a mysterious agency tasked with investigating anomalous phenomena. From an outsider unable even to prove his identity, he gradually becomes an investigator pursuing the truth.
