[Urban High Martial Arts + Bureau 749 + No System + Physical Exorcism + School Beauty + Decisive and Ruthless]
The school beauty's shadow stood up from the wall.
A metal lamp stand passed right through it, yet a ghostly hand still clamped around Wen Zhaoning's throat.
"Run! Iron can't touch it!"
Chen Xiaochuan tightened his grip on the iron rod and charged at the evil spirit, closing to within three steps.
The rod came down. The shadow solidified, and the ghost's head and half its body shattered on the spot. Even the half-meter-thick brick wall behind it was smashed through.
Wen Zhaoning stared, stunned, at the ordinary iron rod.
[Touch and Make Real].
Within three steps, a blunt weapon touching the target forces even an intangible ghost to become a solid body that can be smashed to pieces.
After the Bureau 749 response team arrived and investigated the scene, they immediately offered him a special recruitment card.
A permanent position, generous allowances, and case bonuses were all his for the taking, if only he would agree.
But Chen Xiaochuan wasn't ready to join just yet.
From an old wooden post inside the shattered wall, he had also recovered half of an early-Republic-era domino tile engraved with the words "Borrow Lifespan."
An antique clothing shop, a wealthy family's old mansion, an underground life-swapping ring: one strange case followed another.
Xiao Yu, a Daoist heir, wielded his sword to break evil curses, while Chen Xiaochuan showed up with his iron rod, tracking down those who traded in human lives.
The cases kept coming, and the Bureau 749's offers grew more serious each time.
They could talk about joining later.
For now, he would smash every last thing that harmed people.
Maybe I don't understand the logic
Well, it's hard to put it into words, it's quite beautiful.
