The Pinnacle of Power: A Life in Officialdom, Starting at the Criminal Investigation Bureau

(Reborn + crime-solving + fast-paced + officialdom)

“You got a government job and dumped me? Fine. You may have made it into the system, but I can make sure you fall right back out!”

Chen Ye takes his last breath beneath the wheels of a dump truck. When he opens his eyes, he’s back twenty years in the past, at the moment his ex-girlfriend Su Hong publicly humiliates him and breaks up with him after passing the civil service exam.

“You’re just a lowly auxiliary police officer. How could you ever measure up to someone like me, with a government job in sight?”

“Mr. Wang is pursuing me too. Don’t ruin my future!”

In his previous life, the blow shattered his confidence. He missed his chance to become a full-fledged officer, struggled for half his life, and still died beneath a truck.

This time?

He smiles.

Turbulence in the civil service? Battles over power and money? A horrific family massacre that has the whole city talking, still unsolved?

Sorry, with the script of his rebirth in hand, all he sees is a path to the very top of officialdom!
