Xia Yishi was born with yin-yang eyes, making her a natural candidate to become a Taoist exorcist.

Unfortunately, she was a complete coward who was terrified of ghosts.

After being inexplicably bound to the “Ghost-Hunting Tycoon System,” she was forced to start her life over:

[Ding! Host, please send this vengeful spirit on to the afterlife!]

Xia Yishi: No way. Whoever wants to do it can do it! I wouldn’t touch this stupid task with a ten-foot pole!

[System: Reward: one million!]

Xia Yishi: Well, now that you mention it, if even a dog won’t do it, I’ll do it!

Lured by the generous rewards, Xia Yishi nervously stepped into the city criminal investigation brigade. She had planned to drop off a lead and run, but the captain of the major crimes squad stopped her on the spot:

“Miss Xia, you seem to know the crime scene inside out… Why don’t we have a little chat?”

From then on, she became a specially appointed police consultant:

The wronged spirit in the forensic lab named the real killer;

A victim who had been missing for years was found with the help of a bound spirit;

And an evil spirit in an old case file turned out to be connected to a serial murder case…

Everyone at the station, from the captain of the major crimes squad to the trace-evidence tech, went from treating her like a suspect to treating her like the station’s darling…

“Don’t be scared, Shishi. We’re full of yang energy, so sit closer!”

“Xia, here’s the evidence that just came in… Oh, and some freshly burned joss paper.”

“Yishi, how about we write this in the case report: ‘Civic-minded Miss Xia helped solve the case with her keen intuition’? Sound good?”

Clutching her System rewards, Xia Yishi trembled. “Waaah, I’m scared of ghosts… But the System is offering way too much!”
