Synopsis

Yang Fan transmigrates onto the set of a scriptwriting competition. Contestants have to create a story based on a prompt drawn by the production team. The first prompt is “Murder.” The other contestants are writing tightly plotted murder mysteries. But Yang Fan doesn’t know much about murder mysteries. Luckily, he has a sudden stroke of inspiration and comes up with a new solution! The Ring Who’s to say a ghost killing someone doesn’t count as murder?! Yuhua: This is a work that explores human nature. Sun Guiwu: This is a brilliant suspense mystery. Liu Xinxin! No, no, no, it’s actually a work full of science-fiction elements! Xiao Si: Could it possibly be a story about love and romance...? Teacher Yuhua: Hey, hey! I told you to write a story about people eating people. What on earth is Sweet Home? I meant people eating people, not that kind of eating people!!! Xiao Si: Hey, hey! I told you to write a story about being reborn and making up for regrets with your unrequited love. What on earth is Death’s Game? And sure, you’re reborn, but what’s with being reborn twelve times!!!
