Du Ming, young anaesthetist in a big Chinese hospital, is haunted by the memory of Zhang Qian: a young lady coming from the same school as him , who bewitched him by the sulphurous beauty and the aura of strangeness she emits. After graduating, Du Ming stayed in touch with Zhang Qian, who writes him. Now a terrible piece of news arises: the young lady is said to have committed suicide.

Devenu praticien, Du Ming est resté en contact avec Zhang Qian, qui lui écrit de loin en loin. Or une terrible nouvelle survient : on dit que la jeune femme s’est suicidée… From Manga News.
