Eerie: The Talk Show Ended, and Everyone Died

After an in-person stand-up comedy show ended, every audience member died.

Except Xu Ke.

A mysterious agency investigated him and classified him as an anomaly.

Case number: h-102

Codename: Insulator

Description: During Incident h-101, all victims suffocated to death while laughing hysterically. Only h-102 was unaffected...

Based on observation, he appears to be completely immune to the "mental contamination" component of most "anomalies."

We hereby request that he be hired as a "special investigator."

After joining the agency, he has to deal with these containment assignments:

"A wind-up key that turns living people into puppets"

"An ancient Roman statue that kills couples when it sees them showing affection"

"A real succubus inside a metaverse game"

The paranormal is rampant, and science stands helpless!

Xu Ke: "These anomalous properties... Just give them a good wash and they'd all be useful!"
