[A timid, survival-minded zombie heroine x a cold, austere police exorcist]
Jiang Yue had been living just fine, scraping by on the money she made selling old family heirlooms and keeping as low a profile as possible.
Was it really such a big deal that she lived longer than most, had eyes that changed color, could run faster than a high-speed train, and occasionally hear what people were thinking?
All she wanted was to live quietly as a wealthy, reclusive city girl. But crime scenes kept dragging her into trouble!
After a case of mistaken identity at a murder scene, she caught the attention of a man so cold he could freeze a zombie to death.
Qin Hao, special criminal investigation consultant and a big shot in the world of exorcists, had eyes sharp enough to see through her fake ID.
Worst of all, she couldn't hear his thoughts! Facing her natural enemy for the first time, Jiang Yue wanted nothing more than to run for it.
“Miss, the way you dodged that bullet just now wasn’t exactly normal.”
“P-Police officer, would you believe me if I said I was a nationally ranked sprinter?”
(Inner monologue: Help! The stack of talismans at his waist is glowing! Is he going to exorcise me?)
To prove her innocence (and, more importantly, stay alive), she was forced to sign a “contract of servitude” and became his unofficial assistant police officer.
Use superhuman speed to chase down criminals? Use mind-reading to interrogate suspects? Use an immortal body to take a knife for someone?
Fine, fine! For the sake of earning merit and upgrading her powers, she’d do it!
She thought a little work would keep trouble at bay, but the cases only grew more bizarre, and the enemies more twisted.
A bar-hopping playboy who recklessly turns newcomers into monsters, an assassin who can control shadows, a brute who can punch through walls…
The mastermind behind it all turns out to be a man who shares her origins, the very man who once begged her to kill him, but now wants to drag the whole world down with him
