The protagonist, Ji Ye, has awakened an "Abyss Filter," seeing everything as ordinary objects. 👉 While others are terrified of the Headless Horseman, he thinks he's a dedicated deliveryman and even gives him a tip! 👉 While others are scared out of their wits by the sight of a deep-sea monster, he thinks she's a drowning girl, rescues her, and then forces her to sing a square dance! 👉 The most outrageous thing is that when the King in Yellow comes looking for trouble, he treats him like a performance artist, forcibly drags him into his house to play a murder mystery game, and then criticizes the script for its illogicality! Now, in his yard, a demigod is guarding the gate, a ghost king is mopping the floor, and an S-class monster is unclogging the sewers… Everyone's a villain (scratch that), everyone's a working stiff!
