Gangrene

Preface: Before the Glazed Plague Spreads This is not a story. This is a plague that occurs in the gaps between words. An infection called "tongue gangrene" that breeds in the dark side of human nature. We always think that evil thoughts are invisible and lies have no substance. But when the darkness deep in the soul truly gains form and strength - when indifference can glimpse the end, when paranoia can anchor reality, when desire can weave destiny - the world we know begins to fester under the glazed rainy night. What you will meet here is not a hero. They are a group of "unkind people": a silent keeper who devours the truth in the musty smell of old books, a soul-slayer who weaves desire in the threads of Chinese clothes, a paranoid who chases the only light in the labyrinth of evidence, an isolated island building an archive in the dust of rumors... There are more, hidden in the folds of the glamorous city, each carrying a cursed "gift". An out-of-time corpse and a deep purple cheongsam made of tangled branches were like the first stone thrown into the stagnant water, creating ripples of fate. They are forced to step out of their respective shadows and engage in a cruel game about the essence of existence amid each other's calculations and the common crisis of destruction. It's not just intrigue and confrontation. This is the rebellion of the "concept" itself, a silent and grand sacrifice after the dark side of human nature breaks free. Now, turning this page is both a spectator and a participant.
