[Guide of the Living and the Dead] [Urban Supernatural Tales] [Mystery and Deduction] [Ghost Consultant] [Inherited Memories] [The Abyss of Human Nature]
If you could bring the dead back to life for three days, what would you do?
Some goodbyes need three days; some truths take a lifetime to come to terms with.
By a twist of fate, Shi An gains the ability to grant the dead three days in the light of day, so they can settle their lingering regrets. He has witnessed the most moving reunions and soothed the most soul-searing resentment, and considers himself a fixer of regrets in this world. Every time he sends off a departed soul, Shi An permanently inherits all of that person's memories and skills. The experiences of countless others settle into his instincts.
When the police come knocking, this ability becomes the ultimate key to solving cold cases. Testimony from the dead is irrefutable, while the clues Shi An pieces together from fragments of their memories and the specialized skills he inherits make him an irreplaceable trump card behind the scenes. He can see into the deepest darkness and tread along even more dangerous edges.
The corpses are talking.
He becomes the most unique link between life and death. On one hand, he helps the dead find closure, earning a reputation in urban legends as the "Three-Day Ferryman." On the other, he is the police's only "ghost consultant," letting corpses tell the truth and helping solve countless cold cases.
Until he discovers that this is all part of a grand scheme set in motion a thousand years ago...
This is not only a subject that subverts cognition, but also a profound questioning of human conscience.
It has a very interesting design and angle, so I feel like I can write a lot of complex experiences.
The subject matter is novel and the story is touching.
