Wu Yu was scrolling through Douyin when he transmigrated.
When he opened his eyes, the walls were covered in bloody writing:
[Don't go to sleep!]
[It's right beside you!]
[Don't look back!]
A woman in red floated up outside the window, and a red thread burrowed into his skin.
No System, no old sage to guide him. There was only line after line of scarlet text in his mind:
[The anomaly has devoured It.]
[The anomaly has become the new It.]
He looked down to see rows of teeth emerging from beneath the skin of his arm, while tentacles writhed wildly across his back.
It turned out his golden finger was a "Gluttonous Ghost."
Other ghost tamers handled ghosts cautiously, afraid of being possessed. He just ate them.
The haunted cinema? Ate the Projection Ghost.
The Hanging Ghost? Ate it.
The Forgetting Ghost? Ate that too.
The Ghost-Taming Bureau told him the vicious ghost inside him was about to revive, and he wouldn't live another half a month.
Wu Yu smiled. "Sorry, there are two of them now."
Then one day, he discovered that the house he rented didn't exist on any map.
A knock came from outside the door:
"Big brother, I've finally found you..."
And the countdown on his movie ticket kept ticking.
He was neither human nor ghost.
He was an anomaly.
