Stewie Poltergeist

Mr. Feng Shui's Folk Anecdotes

Set against the tumultuous backdrop of China's Republican Era (1912-1949), this novel chronicles the uncanny adventures of Li Beidou, a feng shui master born under a portentous celestial alignment. His birth coincided with the winter solstice—a liminal moment of cosmic transition between Yin and Yang—marked by an omen: every black dog in the village went mad, hurling themselves to their deaths beneath the ancient huai tree at the village entrance. Hailing from a lineage of funeral attire shopkeepers who clothed the dead, Beidou's destiny shifted during a feverish delirium when he encountered the Yin-Inquiring Matriarch, a spectral figure who inducted him into the shadowed arts bridging the mortal realm and the afterlife. The narrative weaves through encounters with Yin Arts—esoteric rituals to commune with spirits—and the perilous Nine Yin Techniques, a forbidden corpus of necromantic lore. Each chapter unravels bizarre phenomena: sentient funeral paper effigies, geomantic curses haunting ancestral tombs, and markets where the dead barter with spirit coins. Blending historical verisimilitude with supernatural intrigue, the story illuminates the clandestine world of Yin-Yang practitioners—custodians of cosmic balance—through Beidou's trials. From exorcising poltergeists in Shanghai's jazz-age parlors to decoding cryptic feng shui patterns in war-torn villages, his journey reveals how the veil between worlds grows thin in times of human strife.

Synthetic Love

Akihiro Genji is a twenty-year-old guy who lives alone in his rented room. He studies part-time at the Trimes Research and Technology University and works from home as an assistant AI programmer for the other half of his day. His life seemed perfect until his girlfriend broke up with him, which caused him to enter a stage of depression, isolating himself from the university for a few weeks. Maybe it was the stress, maybe the depression, who knows, but suddenly Akihiro began to have lucid dreams. Something that became a habit for him, suddenly in one of those dreams Arika appears, a spirit with the appearance of a beautiful girl, banished from the heavens, who interferes in Akihiro's dreams to try to communicate with him, but Akihiro ignores her thinking that it is just another dream. Not being heard, Arika begins to interfere in the physical world through poltergeist, messages on his devices, on his computer, even on his cat, to get his attention. "Okay, I think I'll pay attention to this," said Akihiro one day, until both began to communicate, while Arika told him her tragedy for which she was banished from the heavens, Akihiro came up with an idea. "Since you're trapped in that realm, dimension, or whatever it is, do you think it's possible for you to take a synthetic body like the ones robots make now? I don't think anyone would notice the difference because they make them very real," said Akihiro. "I'm not sure, but that's a great idea!" said Arika. And so, this peculiar adventure begins for Akihiro. Or rather, for Arika, as she will have to get used to her new body and the habits of human beings, including their emotions.
