Lin Ce has always been a nobody writing novels about the supernatural to an audience of exactly zero. No matter how terrifying his stories are, no one ever says they are scary.
No one ever asks him for updates or tips him. When he stops updating, no one even notices.
Then one day, after staying up late writing, his heart suddenly gives out and he dies. In his final moments, he thinks about how no one ever asked him for an update, and how unfair it is to die like this.
When he wakes up again, he cannot tell whether he is alive or dead. Acting on instinct and sheer determination, he opens his author dashboard and discovers that his stories have been getting countless comments every day.
But there's something a little off about these comments.
[Head Off, Blood Gushing: Why haven't you updated yet? How am I supposed to buy your novels if you don't update? If I don't buy them, how am I going to spend the paper money I've been saving for decades?]
[My Tongue Won't Go Back In: Why is the author always slacking off? You only update six thousand words a day. What kind of effort is that? You don't have the courage to write thirty thousand words a day, but you have the nerve to start three new stories at once?]
[Where Are My Intestines: The author's such a jerk, you'll be dead meat soon. I'll climb up to your bedside tonight and kill you with your own intestines.]
[I Hate Pain, Don't Sew My Mouth Shut: I'm warning you to be nice, author, or I'll stick you with a needle like Nanny Rong. P.S. Why are your stories so fairy-tale-like? Can't you make them scarier?]
[I'm Just a Kid, Don't Throw Me in the Frying Pan: Waaaah, it's so scary, so terrifying! Author, are you a ghost? Why write such a frightening novel? I'm so scared I hide in the frying pan every day. I'm almost crispy!]
Lin Ce: "..."
The administrator standing behind Lin Ce, who had quietly created the app, silently wraps an arm around his waist and gently comforts him. "It's not scary, but it is funny."
