This chapter opens with a description of a dream in which a cat named Lin and a demon named Kui-Kir appear to be in love. Lin is jealous of the cat's good looks and wants to hug the cat, but the cat does not seem to want to be kissed. The demon asks if the cat likes Lin, and Lin responds that he does. Lin asks if she is in love with anyone, and the demon responds that she is, but that the cat might not know who she is.
