Tan Qiao is a veterinarian and an enthusiast of interdimensional research.
Recently, Tan Qiao has been spending every spare moment browsing the “Imposter Research” forum. Thanks to her high level of activity on the forum, her account, “Forum Dweller,” has become well known there.
One day, a forum user with the screen name “Wanna Be an Imposter” sent her a private message.
[Wanna Be an Imposter: Are you also not human?]
[Wanna Be an Imposter: Please help me become human.]
Tan Qiao: ?
What kid was playing a prank on her?
Tan Qiao didn't take it seriously. She brushed the other person off and logged out, but when she logged back in the next day, they immediately sent her another private message.
[Wanna Be an Imposter: Please help me become human, senbei.]
She ignored weird people, but not people who were weird to the extreme!
And so Tan Qiao acquired a “weird” online friend.
While chatting online, Tan Qiao also had something happen in real life.
It seemed a beautiful woman had just moved in next door, but she rarely smiled and had very strange mannerisms.
Was she an imposter?
Tan Qiao didn't think much of it. She just figured the woman might be mentally unwell.
She had planned to leave the beautiful neighbor alone, but the woman started coming over again and again, and gradually began acting more normal.
At least, on the surface.
One day, her seemingly clueless online friend, who claimed to be an imposter, suddenly asked Tan Qiao a question.
[Wanna Be an Imposter: Senior, what is... what humans call... liking someone?]
[Forum Dweller: Well... find someone and kiss them. If your heart starts beating faster, that means you like them!]
As soon as she sent the message, someone knocked on her door. It was her beautiful neighbor, Mu Yunhan, wearing nothing but a bathrobe.
Thinking her clueless neighbor had come over because the pipes had burst again or the lights were broken, she turned to get her toolbox, but someone suddenly grabbed her hand.
Mu Yunhan's soft lips pressed straight against hers, leaving her seeing stars.
But before she had time to react, the other woman took her hand and pressed it against her heart.
“It’s... beating... strangely...”
“Is this what humans call... a fast... heartbeat?”
“Sen...ior...?”
