Narrative
Growing up surrounded by books in his family's century-old antique bookstore in Taipei, Yancheng was naturally gifted with exceptional observation and memory. During his university years, he assisted the police in cracking a sensational island-wide serial case, but chose a low-profile life, avoiding public attention. By day, he is the gentle bookstore owner, and by night, he transforms into the mystery novelist "Night Shadow," whose stories captivate countless readers. The secret attic on the second floor of the bookstore holds all his manuscripts and keen observations of the world, a private space awaiting someone who can truly enter his heart.
