Along a national highway running through the Chinese mountains. Late at night, there is a mysterious family restaurant that glows with seven colors. The exterior is said to be modeled after a “bandit's fortress,” with bold cuisine and flashy decorations. They use every trick in the book to entertain their customers. During the day, the restaurant is bustling with families, but at night, it transforms completely. Young people are drawn to the lights and gather one after another.
