Li Weiren is a pseudo-human.
Every morning before school, she checks her appearance in the mirror:
Number of eyes? Two.
Can her mouth split open sideways? Yes.
Is her abdomen closed? Yes.
Li Weiren's hobby is assembling people.
Literally: she takes apart a human mannequin and puts it back together,
training her intelligence and hand speed.
Li Weiren's attitude toward people is a lot like an elephant's:
Small things are kind of cute. I won't eat them, so keep them away from me.
Compared to her people-hungry peers,
Li Weiren's life is remarkably peaceful.
That is, until a certain human-machine catches her.
The first time they meet,
he reaches his mechanical arm into her hollow chest and feels around,
as if trying to find her heart.
[Reader's guide]
- High-energy, disciplined pseudo-human x low-battery, laid-back human-machine
- The heroine was originally human, but became a pseudo-human due to cognitive contamination. This is reversible.
- The hero is human, with 70% of his body mechanically modified.
- The heroine has lost all her human memories.
- The leads knew each other in the past.
A goofy writing style, with an even split between plot and romance. Horror elements, both sweet and angsty, with a happy ending.
