After the monsters had lived peacefully among humans for thousands of years, they suddenly began going berserk.
They were sick with an incurable disease. If left to run wild, they would eventually meet their doom.
Zhuo Ning's original job was finding homes for monsters who came to her for help. Her life was about as leisurely as could be.
But one day, she kindly cured a dream-eating tapir, and before she knew it, the news had spread far and wide.
Looking at her house, now surrounded so densely that not even water could pass through, she could only think of a way to scare them off.
She said, "Treating your illness comes at a price. Once you're cured, you'll be my monster in life and in death. If I tell you to go east, you absolutely cannot go west!"
The monsters said, "We'll be your monsters in life and in death. If you tell us to go west, we absolutely won't go east!"
Zhuo Ning: "..." What a bunch of monsters afraid to die.
Forget it. If I can't deal with them, I can at least run away.
But on the night she tried to escape, a man stopped her. He smiled with effortless elegance. "Why go to all that trouble? I'll just kill them all for you."
The monsters: "..."
