Synopsis: [Main text concluded] Also recommending completed novels "Death Spiral" and "Someone in My Heart".

[This novel is set in a fictional world, fictional, fictional! Please do not associate with reality, begging you QAQ]

Lin Jianyuan, 27 years old, an office worker. Ever since he fainted from overwork and late-night shifts and was sent to the hospital, he started seeing many strange things every day.

For example, vines crawling out from his colleague's pupils.

For example, frogs spewing from his boss's ruptured trachea during meetings.

For example, after a 2-hour commute, he finally got home, dragged his weary body through the door, only to find a set of pinkish-flesh independent digestive organs smiling at him, opening and closing its mouth, saying:

"You're back."

"Do you want to shower first, eat, or... me?"

Lin Jianyuan: "Isn't this plumbing raw? How can I eat this?"

Lin Jianyuan suspected his brain was fried. He went to the hospital, and the doctor said he might be having hallucinations due to overwork and too many late nights.

Doctor: "Don't put psychological pressure on yourself, just relax."

Lin Jianyuan breathed a sigh of relief: "So I'm mentally ill!"

After being diagnosed with a mental illness, Lin Jianyuan became much more energetic.

His colleague complained that their eyes were getting blurry looking at the computer and they felt like they were going blind. Lin Jianyuan, with a flick of his wrist, pulled out the squealing vines. The colleague's eyes, which previously occupied half their face, sparkled again, and they could passionately work on the computer with 31 fingers.

After work, his boss still had meetings, and the small mouth on his throat continuously spewed frogs. Lin Jianyuan simply scooped them up with a net, taking the frogs home for an extra meal, treating them as overtime pay in kind. The digestive system loved eating them, and at night, it would rub against him with its windpipe, wet and cold like some kind of reptile pet. Cute.

...Yes, even that unfamiliar digestive system at home, he found it cuter the more he looked at it. One day, he even started thinking, "Hmm, it at least has a mouth. Should I kiss it?"

Lin Jianyuan gradually came to terms with his "mental illness," and his life got better and better.

Until one day, the Special Anomaly Bureau came knocking, asking him in shock:

"You ripped apart the A-rank anomaly [Eye Vine]?"

"You contained the S-rank anomaly [Frog Rain]???"

Lin Jianyuan: "Anomalies? What anomalies? If you're saying my colleagues and boss are anomalies, then what's my digestive system wife?"

Lin Jianyuan pulled out his shy digestive system wife, who was hiding behind him.

Bureau: "..."

"Ultra S-rank alert! Requesting high-level combatant support! Severe contamination warning for the area! Evacuate civilians! Evacuate civilians! Evacuate civilians!!!"

Lin Jianyuan: "?"

"So I'm not mentally ill after all."

But Lin Jianyuan thought about it, and a wife is still a wife, especially after they'd kissed. He shielded his wife behind him, saying: "Baby, don't be afraid. I'll protect you."

A giant, fleshy-red shadow, currently revealing its true form: "...Mmm." (Shyly)

And so, the Bureau watched helplessly as the off-the-charts contamination readings instantly vanished.

Bureau: "?"

"No, 'wife'???"

"You call that ultra S-rank anomaly [Evil Domain], 'wife'?"

1. The wife is the seme.
