Name: You Call That a Rule? And You’re Using It?
Author: Tu Xiong Mao Tu

Synopsis

Paranormal phenomena, rules, transferring rule punishments

Who can relate? One moment, overworked office drone Lin Ze opened his eyes, and the next he had fallen straight into a rule-based horror apartment!

Open the door at midnight and die? Something paranormal pounds on the door, shouting, “Open up!” Lin Ze activates his talent in response: “Transfer Punishment! Let this thing find out what it feels like!” The next second, a bloodcurdling scream comes from outside, and the paranormal thing drops dead on the spot!

Have to drink “bug-flavored milk” at seven in the morning? The big guy next door smashes his cup and curses, “Whoever wants it can drink it!” Lin Ze grins. “Perfect, that punishment's yours!” The next moment, the guy is locked in a midnight time loop, while Lin Ze happily downs the now-normal milk.

Rule three: Enter the bathroom at eight in the evening, and the mirror will switch your soul with someone else's?

Lin Ze feels his talent and sneers. “Switch? We'll see who switches with whom!”

Everyone else is terrified of breaking the rules. Lin Ze uses his punishment-transfer talent to make paranormal beings suffer and trap rule-breaking neighbors in loops. He even complains that the rules aren't coming fast enough: “Can't you send a few more? My talent's getting bored!”

From then on, the rule-bound apartment becomes a “paranormal suffering camp.” Watch Lin Ze use his ridiculously overpowered talent to turn these hauntings into a power fantasy, cruising through every crisis and coming out on top!

Looking for books like Rule-Bound Horror Stories: I Can Use the Rules Perfectly. It absolutely must have no CP, no ambiguous relationships, and no romance! I really don't understand why people have romantic relationships in horror novels. It completely kills the horror atmosphere!
