Also known as: I’m Broke, and I Specialize in Sleeping in Haunted Houses!
Who can relate?! A penniless amnesiac with just 4.87 yuan to her name takes on haunted houses for a 30,000-yuan trial-stay fee, charging into the “Water Ghost Mop-Off,” the “Movie Star’s Body Wash Protection Battle,” and the “Influencer’s Diving Boot Camp”!
Lin Zhi: Being broke is scarier than ghosts, and owing money is more thrilling than running into one!
With the mindset of “I’ll make enough for rent, then get out,” she grabs a mop to take on water ghosts and uses hot pot seasoning to choke out vengeful spirits, turning a haunted house into an “underworld property management office.” Who knew a trial stay came with a permanent job in the Netherworld? She can exchange good karma for hamburger money, gain followers by handling complaints, and work part-time as a haunted-house tester while holding down her main job as an underworld mediator. Her life is even more hectic than the living world’s!
A water ghost complains that the neighbor sings off-key, a movie star sobs that her body wash was stolen, and an influencer insists on practicing dives to make the smallest splash. The ghosts' demands are even more bizarre than delivery notes from the living world! As Lin Zhi argues over the rules governing the realms of the living and the dead, she also milks the Netherworld for hamburger money and unlocks bizarre skills like “Spirit Image Evidence Collection” and “Ghostly Bullet Comments.”
But the more she investigates, the stranger things get: hazy memories of the Qingxi County Reservoir, a mysterious old scar on her back, and a mysterious woman who looks exactly like her... Does her amnesia conceal a mystery spanning time and space?
She has earned the 30,000-yuan trial-stay fee and exceeded the Netherworld's performance targets, but clues to her past point to an unsolved case from seventy years ago. Does the next haunted house hold the memories she lost?
Those who scare easily, stay away! Laugh until you split your sides. This tale of working in both realms won't let you stop reading!
