Back Room: Conceptual Prisoner

Lin Yu had never seriously thought about the meaning of the words "Don't come to me" left by his brother Lin Shen before he disappeared. Until that night, when the wallpaper in his study bubbles and cracks, and he is sucked into an endless maze of yellow wallpaper, green carpet, and buzzing fluorescent lights. This is called the back room. No Exit. There is no direction. There is no time. There are only rules—— The coffee machine is limited to three cups per day, and empty cups must be returned to their original places; The elevator must not be used, it has no landing level; The printer was always spitting out paper, always translating some language he couldn't understand; There is also a message claiming to be his brother repeatedly warning him: "Don't use that ability." But Lin Yu has already used it. He discovered that his "cognition" could change the objects in the back room - water could become almond water, and the wall could become a door. The price is that his body is becoming part of the back room little by little. The shadow began to move slower than the person himself; the skin began to grow patterns like the yellow wallpaper; his smile in the mirror was no longer synchronized. What's even weirder is that all the clues point to the same direction—— My brother is not trapped in the back room. My brother stayed voluntarily. And Lin Yu is the "patch" left behind by his brother. "Cognition is the cage, understanding is the abyss." When you finally understand the rules of the backroom, you become the rules themselves.
