Phantom in the Twilight

Shortly after Baileu Ton arrives in London with her friend Mu Shinyao, the girls are robbed. While pursuing the thief, Ton wanders into Cafe Forbidden, a cafe established by her great-grandmother. Cafe employees Vlad, Luke, and Toryu help Ton search for the culprit. When they find the thief, they transform into inhuman vampires, wolfmen, and vampires... Ton is surprised. However, she learns the ring from her great-grandmother that she always wears holds a major secret.

As soon as the theft is resolved, Shinyao is kidnapped. Ton visits Café Forbidden once again in order to save her friend. With the help of the cafe's fourth employee, Wayne the ghost, and Detective Gregory, the truth becomes clear... and they discover the case involves an inhuman Umbra and the smartphone app "Magic Mirror." Ton waits for the trio to return. However, she receives a notification on her phone that Shinyao is in danger. Ton heads off to save her friend alone.

Having defeated the serial killer Umbra, they search the building, but Shinyao has vanished. While searching for her whereabouts, Ton learns the four employees of the cafe are members of the Twilights, an organization that seeks coexistence between humans and shadows, and Cafe Forbidden is the organization's London branch. They blindly continue the search for Shinyao, but only Luke seems to recognize a trace left behind by the culprit. Luke secretly heads out to meet the man who kidnapped Shinyao... where he meets Chris, a young man he knows well.

Though Chris kidnapped Shinyao at Haysin's request, he's now taken her to his hideout in order to protect her. Meanwhile, Ton grows closer to the members of the Twilights while investigating her friend's kidnapping and learns Toryu the jiangshi's talisman hides a secret. When his talisman is removed, Toryu becomes a weapon bent on destroying everything before it finally self-destructs. When Toryu's creator removes his talisman and makes him lose control, the Twilights desperately try to stop him. Just when they think they're out of options, Ton uses the power of her ring and attempts to stick a talisman on Toryu, but...

Having cut ties with Haysin, Chris and Shinyao hide together in an abandoned hospital. As Shinyao is dependent on Chris, he begins to see her as more than just the human he kidnapped. Meanwhile, Ton is visited by a beautiful woman named Lydia as the new manager of Cafe Forbidden. Lydia is a leannán sídhe, an kind of Umbra that must never take a human lover. Oblivious to this, Ton accepts her request to find her a human lover. Wayne finds the perfect match for Lydia's criteria, but... he's popular musician Roland Lee. He is actually Lydia's ex-boyfriend and still hasn't been able to forget her. Roland visits the cafe to meet Lydia, but...

Thanks to Wayne, the members of the Cafe successfully determine Shinyao's location, but Midnight Sun, the Umbra extermination organization led by Van Helsing XIII, capture Shinyao and Chris first. Ton and her friends fail to rescue Shinyao again. However, Helsing tells Ton he will return Shinyao to her if she accepts his conditions: cease all contact with Umbra and forget about the incident. Helsing's words leave Ton unsure what to do... That night, Ton leaves the Cafe.
