A new work in the "Stories" series, the human world is as strange as "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", telling love, desire and loneliness with inhuman stories, paying tribute to "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".
According to legend, the Controller is the advanced profession of the Puppet Master.
When people tried to replace wooden puppets with human puppets, manipulators appeared in the world. The controlled person's walking movements and speaking expressions are all controlled by the operator. You can think but you can't do it, you are sad but you have to laugh. The situation is so miserable and tragic.
A skilled manipulator can use only a transparent thin wire to complete the control, getting rid of the limitations of stage performance and applying manipulative skills to life: some use it to please the guests, some perpetrators use it to kill people, and some powerful people use it to control the court. Those who are obsessed with sex use it to forcefully marry, and there are even some psychopaths who control their dead relatives to continue living with themselves... When two outstanding manipulators in the world meet, love and rejection, control and counter-control, through a transparent thread, the struggle begins to be fierce.
In the end, they discovered that the most powerful manipulation technique in the world is something that everyone knows but doesn't know it.
