It forces her to confront the darker side of her own desires, revealing hidden secrets and long-suppressed emotions. As she struggles to understand the Donghua's motives, Xiao Mei realizes she's caught in a dangerous game. The Puppet Master, despite its flaws, possesses a power that could reshape the world, for better or worse.
