Solving cases takes expertise, romance takes bickering, but stopping him from getting himself killed really ought to come with hazard pay...
Qin Xuan is a sharp-tongued forensic pathologist, a Scorpio who’s fond of pressing a scalpel to someone’s throat while explaining why she’s right.
Xing Rui is a drama-queen detective, a crime-solving genius whose favorite pastime is cracking jokes at crime scenes and finding new ways to court disaster.
A serial murder case forces them into a partnership. Qin Xuan soon discovers that solving crimes isn’t enough: she also has to take on the extra KPI of keeping Xing Rui from getting himself into the morgue...
He pretends to be a corpse to scare a suspect, only to get locked in a cold-storage unit;
He disguises himself as a delivery guy to infiltrate a drug den, nearly getting turned into barbecued pork buns;
He even improvises a stand-up routine in front of a killer, just to wait for her to come to the rescue...
After one reckless stunt after another, Qin Xuan tells him, “Keep trying to get yourself killed and I’ll request a new partner!” He grins back at her. “Don’t do that, Your Honor the Forensic Pathologist. If I die, who’ll keep your bed warm?”
▌Hard-hitting suspense × hilarious bickering × grown-up romance
