Zhou Mingrui discovered bizarre wounds on his body and was shocked to find himself in the apartment of Klein Moretti, a history graduate from a humble background. After lighting a gas lamp, he closely inspected his injuries and found that his wound was healing rapidly, likely due to the benefits of transmigration. He then cleaned the blood stains around the apartment to erase any signs of what had occurred.
Zhou Mingrui pondered over Klein’s fate and the reason for his own transmigration. He recalled performing a luck enhancement ritual from a Chinese divination book earlier that day. Thinking there was a possibility the ritual triggered his transmigration, he decided he must try the ritual again the next day in hopes of returning to his original world. He wanted to return to his family, friends and modern amenities. With no other leads, the ritual was his only hope for a way back.

As Zhou Mingrui went over Klein’s fragmented memories again, he realized some details did not make sense, such as Melissa not noticing the gunshot during Klein’s supposed suicide next door. He also found it odd that she disparagingly reminded him multiple times to buy the groceries for the coming week before departing for school. Zhou Mingrui began to suspect more mystery surrounded Klein’s death than the apparent suicide.

Audrey, who goes by the name “Justice”, and Alger, who calls himself “The Hanged Man”, met with the mysterious being known as “The Fool” to conduct a trade. They negotiated for Audrey to obtain a potion formula in exchange for a shipment of ghost shark blood. The Fool agreed to witness their deal on the condition they meet regularly for what they termed a “Gathering”.
Audrey and Alger suggested the Gatherings could help The Fool with inconvenient tasks, and he agreed to hold them every Monday. The trio decided to use code names from the tarot cards and call their group the “Tarot Club”. At the end of their first Gathering, The Fool terminated the connection, saying they had much to look forward to at the next meeting.
Klein, as Zhou Mingrui now called himself, was puzzled by the strange experience in the foggy realm. Though only a short time passed outside, he wondered what kind of power could alter the flow of time and space.
While the Gatherings provided an opportunity to learn more about the mystical world, Klein resolved not to attempt any rituals himself without deeper understanding, as the consequences could be unpredictable and dangerous. He focused his efforts on gleaning what knowledge he could from the Tarot Club.

Klein awoke after resting and found four black dots forming a square on the back of his hand. Reading Klein’s notebook, he learned that Klein had graduated from university and helped his friend Welch decipher a mysterious notebook from the Fourth Epoch.
The notebook mentioned strange things like a nation existing at a mountain summit over 6000 meters high. Klein became obsessed with solving the mysteries, neglecting his job interview, until the last entry on June 27th simply said “Everyone will die, including me…”. Klein suspected visiting Welch and the ancient notebook would be dangerous but felt he had to investigate in order to understand Klein’s suicide.
Klein decided to read through Klein’s notebooks to find clues about his death, starting with notes about his university discussions. He found an entry about Klein helping his friend Welch decode a notebook from the Fourth Epoch, which captured Klein’s interest more than the history lessons.
The notebook discussed strange things like a place called the “Nation of Evernight” located impossibly high in the mountains. Klein grew more concerned for his career and the upcoming interview but was drawn back to the mysteries. The last entry ominously stated “Everyone will die, including me”, confirming Klein’s suspicion that investigating the ancient text led to the original Klein’s demise.

The leader of the three inspectors questioned Klein about his relationship to Welch McGovern, who had recently passed away. Klein explained that he and Welch were classmates and frequently met to discuss notes from Welch’s Fourth Epoch notebook. However, the gray-eyed inspector informed Klein that both Welch and Naya had committed suicide, with Welch bashing his head against the wall and Naya drowning herself, which Klein found impossible to believe.
During their search of Klein’s room, the young inspector came across the end of Klein’s notes with the phrase “Everyone will die, including me,” which raised suspicions. Klein claimed memory loss and an inability to explain the phrase, which the gray-eyed inspector unexpectedly believed may be due to lost memories. They advised Klein not to leave the city for now and that an expert would visit to help recover his memories.
