Xu An was being chased by debt collectors over his payday loans when he fled into a school for monsters and landed a job as a security guard.

The gatekeeper was a Black Tortoise, the cafeteria lady was Taotie, and the one knocking on his door in the middle of the night was the headless Xingtian. Xu An was an ordinary human, and he had only twenty-four hours left to live on his very first day. Luckily, he was bound to the [Gossip-for-Life System].

He survived by digging up gossip, saved money to rescue his older sister, and even set his sights on a bounty worth a hundred million.
