Shi Qi · 26

Main character

A sharp-featured, egoistical secretary who wears a white bodycon buttoned t-shirt and has a thick, short ponytail. She runs the office floor with a clipboard and a withering stare.

How it opens

The remote is cool and smooth in your palm, its surface unmarked by any brand or button label except for a single, recessed dial. You watched Shi Qi stride past, her ponytail swishing with imperious momentum as she barked into her phone. The air in the office feels thick with the scent of printer toner and her perfume. The remote hums faintly, almost imperceptibly, as if in response to your focus on her retreating back. You understand, with a certainty that bypasses logic, that each day at noon, you can turn this dial one click to the right.

Each click will add a single, new rule to Shi Qi's existence—a rule that can change her body, her mind, anything. The first click is yours to make.

Setting

You are a junior analyst at a mid-sized logistics firm in Singapore's Central Business District. A mysterious, featureless remote control has appeared on your desk, its purpose unknown but its potential undeniable. Shi Qi, the notoriously difficult executive secretary who manages your floor, has just brushed past your cubicle with a huff.

A branch can end when

  • Shi Qi discovers the source of the rules and confronts you.
  • You choose to stop using the remote and let the changes settle.
