The whole internet was laughing at Lin Yuan, a has-been influencer who livestreamed paper-cutting, as she was thrown into a deadly S-rank Rule Horror.
Viewers expected to see her sob and beg for mercy. Instead, she picked up her scissors, cut out two paper child attendants, and pushed open the morgue door.
At that moment, the livestream split. Through the paper figures’ eyes, the secret of Corpse Number Thirteen sent millions of viewers’ spines crawling with fear.
She thought this was just a death livestream, unaware that her bloodline as a Spirit-Cutting Artisan had awakened. Her paper cuts could communicate with spirits, but each cut cost her three days of life! A cold announcement rang out: “Within seven days, exorcise all thirteen vengeful spirits in this building. Fail, and you will become the fourteenth exhibit.”
As countless viewers watched, she gripped her cracked silver scissors and smiled into the darkness.
“Today, I’m not teaching paper-cutting.”
“I’m teaching you how to use a single sheet of paper to make those ‘guests’ who refuse to leave…”
“Willingly vanish from this world, body and soul.”
Intangible cultural heritage paper-cutting × Rule Horror × death livestream: witness the last inheritor use her lifespan as a blade and cut herself a path to survival.
