The background of the story is set as a single person is not qualified to be a human being, and is expelled from the city. The male protagonist is an abandoned man and is taken to a matching hotel. If he does not find a partner within 45 days, he will become an animal. He takes his brother, A border collie that has not been paired successfully, came to the hotel, was forbidden to masturbate, and was forbidden to be unique. It must continue to live in human form, either to find a mate, or to constantly hunt single dogs straying in the forest, increasing the survival rate. time. The second half of the male protagonist escaped from the hotel and became a single dog in the forest. He joined the single dog group, on the condition that no love, no sex, love is not allowed. Break up a couple, break up a pair is a pair. In the end, the male protagonist fell in love with the group alone, killed the group leader, and fled back to the city.
The story is set in such a radical and absurd utopia, satirizing all kinds of social interpersonal relationships, only marriage can make people happy, and unhappiness is not enough to be a human being; it excludes dissidents and does not allow blurred boundaries; love must need a reason, and it is necessary to go together or not. It is the same affliction; marriage does not allow deception. Wait wait... The story is like a movie poster at the end, the male protagonist hugs a figure, what is the need for a real person or a shadow? Despite the embrace, the heart is empty. Marriage is just to live, not to be an alien? The ending ends with an open ending. Will the male protagonist let himself and his partner have the same disease in order to live in the city?
Every detail of the story is full of metaphors, but it does not hide the expressive intent.
