The Seventh Day's Cicada Song

share time: 2026-01-19 06:54:22

Lin Xiaoman returns to her grandma's old yard to keep vigil, only to find that on the seventh day, the old cicada in the yard always repeats the melody from 12 years ago—the day she promised her playmate Chen Mo, "We'll catch cicadas together forever." Even more bizarre, Chen Mo, who has been missing for years, appears under the locust tree—still 12 years old. It turns out Chen Mo is trapped in a loop of "waiting for her seventh day" due to the misunderstanding that Xiaoman broke their appointment. And Xiaoman has hidden a secret for 12 years: she witnessed Chen Mo fall into the well that day but ran away in fear. When the cicada sings for the seventh time, is it the redemption to uncover the truth, or a loop forever trapped in regret?
