[Criminal investigation + suspense + episodic cases + System + transmigration + female lead solves cases] Each case takes about ten chapters.
Wei Shuyan, a modern-day female forensic examiner, accidentally transmigrates to ancient times and binds herself to a case-solving System. She can exchange points for modern supplies.
A beautiful bride is found with her heart torn out in a wedding sedan abandoned in the suburbs in the dead of night. A former imperial palace mysteriously turns into an inn, where tales circulate of a ghost that eats babies. Terrifying ghost soldiers appear at midnight in Wanye Village, concealing a dreadful secret. On every full moon, monsters roam the bustling imperial capital, hunting at will. A shrine is haunted at midnight, where eerie opera songs ring out alongside warnings of a string of murders...
To return to the modern world, Wei Shuyan sets out to solve these cases. Along the way, she meets the original owner's childhood sweetheart Wei Lingyu, a highly skilled martial artist who likes to play the pig to eat the tiger; Fang Yujing, a wealthy, obedient, and utterly loyal companion; and the ruthless Ninth Young Master.
Wei Shuyan is so busy solving cases every day that she can barely keep up.
Yet the three men following her keep looking at her longingly, each vying for a place by her side. Even her mentor at the Dali Temple treats her rather strangely.
Wei Shuyan: I'm solving a case. Don't bother me.
As one bizarre case after another is solved, a vast conspiracy slowly comes to light. Faced with an impossible choice in love, a fate she cannot resist, an unexpected identity, and her impending return home, what path will Wei Shuyan choose...?
