"Silver night in the heart of the water without waves"

The overall tone is rather sad.

The deepest impression is the thirteenth and fourteenth chapters "The water in the heart is without waves in the silver night". Seems like a subtitle called "Confession". There are two clues, one is Yin's past, and the other is the death journey of a pair of contractor partners.
Tell me about that pair. A chubby, crappy female singer with heavy make-up, looking very dusty and indifferent. She chose to swallow the cigarette and spit it out as the price, missing her daughter who died because of her own fault, and vomited painfully every time she used her ability. The other was a humble, taciturn man who seemed to never be able to say something sweet, and the funny thing was that he paid for it by writing poetry.
The final scene is beautiful. The souls scattered like a meteor shower in the sky, the moonlight like water, the ding dong piano. The silver-haired girl slowly raised her arms towards the moonlight, as if to embrace the moonlight, her face expressionless and her eyes filled with tears. The pair fell to the ground, looking at the night sky. The man did his last poem, and the woman murmured "Not bad." Then, the scattered spirits disappeared, leaving only the moonlight. In a short moment of a night, two people's lives ended, and the other person was redeemed.

The whole movie is like that. In an almost hopeless background, although there is a battle between the enemy and ourselves, everyone is just walking their own way. Not depressed, just a little sad. Honestly, I just love the mournful tone itself.
