Synopsis

In the prosperous city of Guangping, humans and demons coexist. Demons are skilled at hiding their forms and disguising themselves as humans. Ban Xia, the daughter of a wealthy family, has a pair of strange eyes and can often see the shadows of those who are not there. Because of this, no matter how well behaved and docile she is, she is still called "crazy" secretly.

As they investigated number of strange events together in Guangping City, their relationship grows closer.
