The Ant Swarm Manor

**A sky-high contract, a manor no one has taken on for thirty years, and a strange circle numbered P-Φ-03.** Gu Shen, a PhD in entomology, is a man "exiled by academia"—he once studied a parasitic wasp that shouldn't exist, and his related papers were sealed by the academic committee. After half a year of unemployment, he receives a contract with a monthly salary of 200,000 to move into an old manor covering three mu deep in the mountains and work as a "caretaker." The employer only contacts him through a lawyer, and the only rule: **No matter what you hear at night, don't open the door.** Gu Shen assumes this is some kind of local folk custom. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: The Ant Swarm Manor — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
