Synopsis

Let me start with the conclusion: I'm Lin Zheng. After being reborn, all I wanted was to be a decent person who follows the rules. Instead, I became the office's living King of Hell. I really didn't mean to. Scene One: An old colleague asks me to run out and buy popsicles. Me: “According to the regulations, personal errands aren't allowed during work hours.” (smiles) Result: The old colleague freezes on the spot, so furious his CPU practically starts smoking. The whole office: “Yikes... Is this new guy crazy?” Scene Two: The section chief tries to dump the job of writing impossible meeting minutes on me. Me: I work overtime and finish them perfectly, while also flagging three explosive revelations in the minutes. (serious) Result: The section chief turns green and can't sleep that night. The whole department: “...He's not human. Is he some kind of monster?” Scene Three: I go to the archives to look up some documents, and the old administrator throws his weight around. Me: I recite Chapter Three, Articles 11 and 15 of the Archives Management Regulations. (adjusts glasses) Result: The old man obediently makes me copies and even pours me a cup of tea. The whole system: “Have you heard? The General Affairs Section has a new rules god. He doesn't even spare his own family!” I really just want to do things by the book! Why is everyone afraid of me? (innocent)
