Blurb:
Yu Baixue is an orphan, a friendless wage slave whose job barely keeps food on the table.
His life motto: none.
On an ordinary, gloomy Friday night, he plans to cook himself a nice meal as usual and treat himself to welcome the weekend.
But several unwelcome guests suddenly barge into his home.
They claim to be from the National Impostor Investigation Team. They lost a game of Impostor and are now being hunted.
Yu Baixue has no interest in their surreal explanation. He looks at his kicked-in door and coldly pulls out his payment QR code. "Five hundred. Who's paying? Cash accepted."
Just then, the long-neglected light in the corridor outside begins to flicker unnaturally.
The few liars are on high alert. One of them even lifts the sofa one-handed and blocks the door with it.
Amazed by their strength, Yu Baixue silently adds to his mental list: "Two thousand for the sofa."
The others warn him, "Now isn't the time to worry about that. They're not human. They can perfectly imitate human forms and voices. They're dangerous. Hurry and run..."
Before they can finish,
A dull, irregular knocking sounds against the sofa outside the door.
"Son, it's Mom. Open the door."
At the same time, Yu Baixue's phone lights up on the table. The screen says "Mom" is calling...
[Hello, player. Welcome to the Impostor Game.]
[Player talent detected. Talent activated: 100% NPC favorability (You're the person we love most!)]
From then on, the horror game's tone takes a sudden turn.
While everyone else battles wits with the NPCs and breaks down as impostors chase them down...
Yu Baixue just has to show up, and the NPCs swarm around him, fussing over him.
"Are you cold?"
"Are you hungry?"
"Want to play with some toys?"
"..."
Yu Baixue looks up at the person in front of him, who's two heads taller and has his head attached upside down to his body.
"Hello."
Later, Yu Baixue makes his way through the Impostor Game with this talent, even daring to disguise himself as an NPC.
Until, after running into that man several times in the game,
Yu Baixue, disguised as an NPC, silently turns away. "..."
Can't see him.
The man: "Heh."
As it happens, this is a game level featuring a pair of twin substitute dolls.
At the start of the game, the dolls share some of the player's life points. As time passes, the dolls' life points increase while the players' decrease.
Eventually, they gradually even out. The more life points the doll has, the stronger the shared sensations between it and the player become.
By a twist of fate, Yu Baixue's doll ends up in that man's hands.
The man's fingers roam over the doll, touching everything, both the places he should and shouldn't.
At last, he gives a mocking laugh. "Oh, so you're that sensitive?"
The instant he finishes speaking, Yu Baixue's face turns bright red. He bends over and clutches his stomach. "..."
Someone save me, someone save me, someone save me!
