A fan work based on The Examination for the City God (聊斋志异《考城隍》). A licentiate lies sick in bed and hears hoofbeats no one else can hear. The horse has been waiting at his gate for three days. Someone is coming to take him to an examination—and his mother tells him: if you hear something, do not answer it.
