Xu Rong felt a wave of dizziness as he recalled what Chen Ming had said that night: "The human intestine is the most delicious part..." It turned out that this was not just the ramblings of a madman, but part of a vast criminal network. 0
 
"We have identified several suspects," Officer Zhang said, "but we need your help. You are the only one who survived Chen Ming." 0
 
Xu Rong nodded, knowing he had no choice. If this organization was not completely eradicated, more innocent lives would be at stake. 0
 
In the days that followed, Xu Rong cooperated with the police in their investigation. They discovered that this underground organization operated under the name "Gourmet Club," comprised of powerful and influential individuals. They held secret gatherings to sample "Special Ingredients." 0
 
As the investigation deepened, Xu Rong began receiving anonymous threats. Sometimes it was harassing phone calls in the middle of the night; other times, it was intimidating letters slipped through his door. The most terrifying part was that he could always see Chen Ming's figure at the street corner, even though he knew it was just an illusion. 0
 
One night, as Xu Rong was organizing clues, he suddenly heard a noise from the balcony. Grabbing a fruit knife from the table, he cautiously approached the balcony. 0
 
In the moonlight, a shadow was attempting to pry open the window. 0
 
"Who is it?" Xu Rong shouted sternly. 0
 
The shadow abruptly turned around, revealing a stranger's face. But those eyes—Xu Rong would never mistake them; they were identical to Chen Ming's. 0
 
"Mr. Xu," the person said softly, "our boss would like to invite you to dinner." 0
 
A chill crept up from Xu Rong's feet. 0
 
 
He knew that the real nightmare was just beginning. Xu Rong stood in front of the mirror, meticulously adjusting his suit. This was a suit he had confiscated from a captured club member, still adorned with the club's emblem—a silver fork insignia. 0
 
"Remember," Officer Zhang's voice came through the earpiece, "your identity is food supplier manager Wang. Do not reveal any flaws." 0
 
Xu Rong took a deep breath and picked up the prepared sample box. Inside were ordinary hams, but they had been specially treated to look exactly like the club's "Special Ingredients." 0
 
The entrance to the club was in the basement of an upscale restaurant. After showing his badge, Xu Rong was led into a concealed elevator. As it descended slowly, he felt his heartbeat quickening. 0
 
When the elevator doors opened, Xu Rong was stunned by the sight before him. The spacious Underground Hall was filled with various exquisite tableware. Famous paintings adorned the walls, and crystal chandeliers reflected dazzling light. If he didn't know the truth, Xu Rong would have thought this was just an ordinary Gourmet Club. 0
 
" manager Wang," a man in a Tailcoat approached him, "welcome. Please follow me; tonight's Feast is about to begin." 0
 
Xu Rong followed the man into the hall and noticed that other members were already seated. They were dressed elegantly, laughing and chatting as if attending a regular dinner party. But when the waiters wheeled in a dining cart, Xu Rong felt his stomach churn. 0
 
On the cart lay a Human Model, but upon closer inspection, it was an "art piece" made from various human organs stitched together. 0
 
"Tonight's main course," the host announced, "is specially treated 'Live Sashimi.'" 0
 
Xu Rong watched as two waiters pushed in a massive glass tank containing a floating person. 0
 
 
The person seemed to still be alive, but their gaze was hollow, and their body was covered in strange patterns. 0
