Synopsis

Lu Chen, a forensic science graduate, transmigrates into the world of Strange Tales of the Tang Dynasty and obtains the Underworld Detective System.

Completing missions earns him rewards. The more cases he solves, the more he realizes that he may actually be about to cross over to the afterlife.

“Whispers from the underworld, death simulations... What is all this supposed to mean?!”

Wait, it seems there are also underworld skills that are more down-to-earth and less about going to the afterlife!

“Mastering speeches and getting the audience to applaud, eighty-one ways to knock someone out, one needle to pick any lock, the ghostly hand of a master cheat...”

Fine, fine. Those count as pretty bizarre underworld skills too.

Su Wuming: “Junior Brother, did our master teach you all this?”

Lu Lingfeng: “I never knew you could do so much, Junior Brother Lu. And your martial arts are every bit as good as mine, if not better. I’m impressed!”

Fei Jishi: “Um, are you taking disciples? I’ll buy you one roast chicken every day. No, two!”

Pei Xijun: “Lu Chen, your painting skills are incredible too. Um, could you come to my room tonight and teach me to paint?”

Yingtao: “Good thing Lu Chen is on the straight and narrow. Otherwise, he’d be a real headache.”
