This highly awaited show stars Dylan Wang in his first major role where he takes center stage. Dylan became well-known for his previous work, and now viewers are excited to see how he will carry this male-focused story.

Then, he unexpectedly receives the job of a night guard in Dafeng City—a place often troubled by strange and dangerous incidents. Armed with his modern knowledge and skills, Xu Qi’an works to keep Dafeng City safe from a series of mysterious cases that threaten the people.
