The Shattered Crane

On paper, Wong Jian is a quiet, middle-aged janitor on the graveyard shift at Orion Dynamics' flagship tower. In truth, he's a highly trained Shattered Crane martial artist in self-imposed exile, investigating the staged suicide of his master.

Narrated by Scout — an urban rat and late-night voyeur of human lives — this corporate noir follows Wong as he weaponizes mops, buckets, and maintenance routines, hiding brutal efficiency inside perfect janitorial form, while a compliance drug program turns workers into obedient tools.
