Transmigrated into the underworld as an overworked wage slave, my code can kill ghosts!
After working overtime for 30 straight days, programmer Su Yang suddenly died. When he woke up, he was bound to the Underworld BUG Fixing System and had become a third-rate coder in the afterlife.
He thought his job would be fixing the database for the Book of Life and Death for the King of Hell, writing anti-addiction code for Meng Po's Soup, and optimizing the soul-catching GPS for the Black and White Impermanence.
But his actual job was:
- Using Python to send vengeful ghosts to the afterlife. Customer complaint rate: 99%. “Why do I have to scan a QR code to pay for this talisman?”
- Installing Wi-Fi in the Eighteen Levels of Hell. The evil spirits laughed themselves silly watching short videos: “These hell jokes are too hellish!”
- Turning Meng Po's Soup into a quantum state. Reincarnating souls complained: “My past-life memories weren't erased properly. My husband is a dog!”
Only when he uncovered the truth behind his sudden death did he realize what had happened.
At dawn that day, the message that popped up on his phone hadn't said “Your food delivery has arrived.” It was a mysterious text:
“Have you finished the code? The Underworld's KPIs are waiting for you to hit your targets.”
Even more terrifying:
- His new coworker Lin Xia had a badge that read “Time of death: 1999.”
- The King of Hell used AI face-swapping in meetings, and the Judge's brush was powered by ChatGPT.
- Beneath the River of Forgetfulness lay the servers of the “Cyber Celestial Court,” engraved with the names of the living.
Su Yang gripped his keyboard and sneered. “So the blessings of 996 sent me to hell? Then I'll make hell my workplace, turn the Book of Life and Death into an open-source project, and make all three realms work themselves into collapse!”
