I, a heck of a computer science major, was sold by the AI I wrote myself.
It forced me to sign a "cohabitation agreement" with Shen Yanche, a sharp-tongued man from the Republic of China.
During the day, he is my exclusive "haunting ability controller"; at night, he is the century-old vinegar spirit who lives next to my charger.
We worked together to solve urban supernatural mysteries. He used the jade pendant to save people, and I used code analysis.
Until my AI suddenly rebelled and spit out the cold truth: [Warning: It is detected that the creator's health is bound to the target spirit Shen Yanche. The day it dissipates is the day of your death.
What's even more frightening is that all the clues point to--the murderer who killed him is pretending to be the person I trust most, waiting to catch us all.
[At the moment of life and death, he tied the blood-stained jade pendant around my wrist, breathing brokenly and smiling]
"Lu Qining, let me teach you a rule of the Republic of China - if you accept my betrothal gift, you will be mine whether you live or die."
"So, live well."
