Yan Xichi is a highly intelligent person with exceptional logic and self-discipline.
In truth, he's a beautiful madman who's been under psychiatric supervision for over a decade.
Hypnosis check: condition stable.
Another day of fooling the psychiatrist.
Until he gets caught up in a terrifying nightmare with no apparent cause.
The exhausted-looking stranger at his door is the culprit.
He asks Yan Xichi, "Excuse me, have you seen a hand?"
A severed, hideous hand that can run.
Severed Hand Ghost, single entity, containment level: S.
*Plot-focused
*An emotionally repressed, possessive bottom with a rich inner world x the only divine being among all villains, a battle-worn top
*Ordinary ghosts aside, high-level ghosts are called the Heavenly Stems. The Heavenly Stems are divided into three tiers and twelve ranks.
*The Earthly Branches Bureau is a special department. Its elite members are the Twelve Earthly Branches, and the lower the number, the stronger the member.
The top is No. 2: Chou.
One day, Yan Xichi pins Xue Zhenshi against the wall. "You implanted your hand in my body, didn't you?"
Xue Zhenshi turns his head and holds his breath. "That's my brother."
Yan Xichi takes his hand and guides it lower. "Oh? Really? I don't believe you."
Xue Zhenshi keeps his eyes and hands to himself. "Don't. I'm not interested in you."
Later, Yan Xichi suppresses his deep love and doesn't dare go near Xue Zhenshi.
Xue Zhenshi sits quietly for one second, two seconds, three seconds.
Then he gets up and pulls him over to the wall. "I want to see my hand."
Yan Xichi, blushing furiously, pulls away and apologizes. "You don't have to force yourself. I'll leave now."
Xue Zhenshi: "Wifey, don't... (That's not what I meant...)"
Theme: Even in darkness, pursue the light and strive to become a better person.
