The Dark-Night Swordsman: My Superpower Solves Crimes

When criminal investigation consultant Lin Qiye touches a remnant left at a crime scene, he unexpectedly awakens the supernatural ability of "causal retrospection": he can witness every frame of a crime as it happened. But this also draws him into the shocking conspiracy of "Dark Cicada," a transnational organization of ability users.

In the surface world, he is the police force's star consultant, solving baffling cases like "the memory black market's sale of death retrospections" and "human cicada-shell parasitism," his fame soaring. In the hidden world, however, he is an undercover agent in Dark Cicada. His younger sister is held hostage, forcing him to use a "divide-and-conquer" strategy to stir up infighting within the organization as he dances on the edge of a blade.

When his close friend Chen Mo becomes a Cicada Shell Host and transforms into a calamity capable of destroying a city, Lin Qiye faces the ultimate choice: kill one to save the many, or risk his life to overturn the whole game?
