[Hell Is Other People] Flower of Huating

"At the exit of the dark forest, three beasts blocked my way.

A leopard

Its hide was mottled, its sharp teeth ringed its eyes.

A lion

Its head held high, it exuded arrogance.

A she-wolf

She was skin and bones, yet ravenous with hunger.

They surrounded me, filled with all manner of greedy desires.

Ah, they came closer, step by step, driving me back into the dark forest.

There, even the sun grew dim and lightless."

The Divine Comedy

[Reader Advisory]

1. Original protagonist: an arrogant, genuinely mentally ill beauty who weaponizes his looks, paired with Xu Wenzu

2. Two predators clash, but the story will not contain any criminal acts

3. Other Korean dramas, such as The King of Pigs, Mouse, and Doctor Prisoner, will make appearances. You can still understand the story perfectly well even if you haven't seen them.

[Local cosmic horror / mild horror / 21 points]

It seems there is another "person" living in Bai Qiyu's home.

At first, his underwear goes missing, and a note on the table says, "Lunch is in the microwave."

...Maybe having a fairy in a snail shell around wouldn't be so bad?

In the end, a swelling shadow with countless arms wraps around him and tenderly asks him to date.

...Take that back. Ask me again and I'll kill myself.

The maddening fishy stench that haunts him as he tosses and turns at midnight,

The noisy, clamorous voices echoing through the sewers,

The cloying fragrance surrounding the swollen-headed "Mountain God,"

The nightmare of the German Concession air-raid shelter that he can't escape...

If sanity has a line that, once crossed, means total collapse, then he's walking along its edge.

"We have never truly understood this world. Not for a single moment."

[Act One: It awakens in a cave on a dark shore, then follows him.

Then it splits into ten people and asks him to date.

"Darling, are you there? I have all the faces you like. Want to go out?"

Bai Qiyu: As everyone knows, humans don't date ten people at once.

[Act Two: Beneath the sky, a blurred giant wanders at the edge of the horizon, melting, melting into the revelry of its followers.

Then it keeps asking him to date.

"Darling, are you there? I'm tall (20,000 meters), rich, and handsome. Want to go out?"

Bai Qiyu: As everyone knows, humans don't date a whole building.

[Act Three: ...

Bai Qiyu says there won't be a third act, because he has mastered every Chinese secret art and is ready to roast some seafood.

[Coming Soon: Settling the Debt to the Dead]

On the third day after the world falls into disorder, Ling Hualu finds someone.

The good news: This is the only other person who still has a "human form."

The bad news: This is the person Ling Hualu rejected five years ago after they confessed.

He rejected them arrogantly and disdainfully three times, and called them a creepy freak.

...If time could turn back, Ling Hualu would rush back five years and force himself to say yes.

...Still, maybe it's not too late to say yes now?

A collapsing, fragmenting death loop,

A "sky screen" of severed limbs and corpses,

An out-of-control old chemical factory on the outskirts...

"Kiss you on the last day of the world,

and spend the countdown to the end of our lives with love and everything in the world."

Beautiful, needy, neurotic bottom X an enigmatic creature top who takes advantage of the moment while disguised as a human
