Features: Pei De is an adventure novelist, and the psychotic killer Shi Zhaoji he writes about sends shivers down readers' spines. In reality, Shi Zhaoji is Pei De's twin brother, who has transformed into a dead fetus and parasitically lodges in Pei De's brain. Later, Pei De undergoes surgery to remove the dead fetus, but instead of being removed, the fetus not only becomes Pei De's inner demon but also drives him to kill indiscriminately. Shi Zhaoji, in turn, must go to great lengths to eliminate Pei De.
