My Partner Is a Metaphysics Expert

[A divine con artist has joined the National Special Cases Investigation Unit, and everyone is waiting to see her make a fool of herself.]

That is, until an influencer vanishes into thin air during a livestream, an entire wealthy family sees ghosts every night, and a spirit-writing board returns to haunt a school...

Captain Gong, the unit's so-called "walking nuclear weapon," actually holds up a compass for her.

My name is Yun Chu, the last inheritor of the mystic arts.

On the day I was specially recruited into the National Case Investigation Unit, I sensed the overwhelming aura of a doomed general on the cold-faced captain, Gong Moyuan.

I handed him a protective talisman. "You're fated to face a deadly calamity. That'll cost extra."

He tore it up in front of everyone. "This is the age of science. I don't believe in superstition."

Later, I stained the dragon eye with my blood to extend his life by force.

Kneeling outside the ICU, he called me by my real name for the first time. "Yun Chu, take my life, but you have to live."

We worked together to solve supernatural cases, inching closer to the truth with each step.

Until one day, he stood in front of me, his whole body shining with golden light like the sun.

Thousands of miles away, his cousin, who wielded the Book of Punishments, passed judgment from afar:

"What the Gong family protects has never been a delusion. It's the warmth of everyday life."

And at last, I understood that my partner was something far more terrifying than the mystic arts.
