The hearse with the weird odor slowed to a stop before the entrance. The sound of pebbles could be heard bouncing on the ceiling. There were footsteps coming from the corridor, and there seemed to be someone sawing next door. The door knob to the room rattled slightly, and the faucet in the bathroom kept dripping even though it had been screwed shut. There was a rubber ball that rolled on its own underneath the bed. Wet footsteps started to surface one after another on the floor. At 3 am, Chen Ge held a cleaver in his hand as he hid beside the room heater. The call he was trying to make was finally answered.

Horror: The cruelty of the world is horrifying because it is orderly and loving, which makes it much worse. It is clean, surgical dread rather than gore. The novel's strongest element is psychological horror, which is created by the gradual engineering of obedience, the novice's growing scepticism, and the way fear is transformed into desire. All of these elements combine to produce a persistent, sickening internal terror. Philosophical aspect: incisive and unrelenting, it compels the reader to consider whether choiceless happiness is still human and whether engineered bliss is equivalent to salvation or perfected damnation. a psychological horror story that lingers because it poses the incorrect question until you are forced to respond to it.
