Li Ming, a Tomato Novel reviewer, carelessly rejected a rules-horror novel titled Letters from Mist Village because he couldn’t be bothered to review it properly.
The next second, he is dragged into the world of the book and becomes a survivor in one of its scenarios.
The eerie meter keeps rising, and each new rule is deadlier than the last.
From being forced to suffer the death penalty for a “slow opening” to struggling to survive in a data hell;
from his body beginning to dissolve into mist and his vocal cords being altered, to his consciousness being devoured and his humanity utterly erased.
There is no redemption, no chance to clear his name, and no way out.
In the end, he dissolves into the mist, becoming part of the rules and imprisoned for eternity in the very text he once looked down on.
Those who scorn a creator’s hard work will eventually fall into a world they rejected with their own hands.
One thing to say, the writing style of this book is indeed very good, especially the kind of prose I read in middle and high school, or the kind of novel, the kind published in newspapers and magazines. But it is indeed easy for the reasons mentioned by the editor of Tomato to be inconsistent with the platform's writing style. I feel like Tomato Novels are basically just simple, mindless novels that are more enjoyable. There are occasionally a few that are particularly well-written and stand out.
