Strange Tales from the Great Jing Demon Suppression Bureau

Beneath the outward peace and prosperity of the Great Jing Dynasty, countless strange and treacherous currents run unseen. The Demon Suppression Bureau, a mysterious organization dedicated to handling supernatural incidents, was established to deal with them. The protagonist, Xiao Junhe, is a young guard in the bureau who seems lazy and spends his days slacking off, but is actually sharp-minded and remarkably perceptive. Together with his steady, experienced partner, Old Liu, he gets drawn into one baffling case after another. From a ghost market that appears only at midnight, to an ancient painting that can walk, to a well that devours memories... With his unconventional methods of investigation and uncanny insight into human nature, Xiao Junhe gradually uncovers the truth behind these strange occurrences and begins to uncover a vast conspiracy that could overturn the entire Great Jing Dynasty.
