[Metaphysics + One Male Lead + No Couple in the Main Story]
Chen Yi is a young man who has just finished the miserable grind of university. While his peers work themselves to the bone preparing for civil service exams and graduate school, he turns down a secure government job and chooses instead to become a proud public school teacher. Not for any lofty reason, but because he wants no overtime, no all-nighters, and the freedom to sleep early and wake up late.
Then someone dies at the school on the very first day of classes.
As the least busy PE teacher in the school, he should have had the standard life of “always being sick, having his classes reassigned, getting thanked, and going right back to taking it easy.” Instead, Chen Yi's life takes a different turn: eerie noises wandering through the school at night; a sudden hubbub of voices in an abandoned orphanage; a bridge plagued by a string of accidents; a female corpse that vanishes without explanation...
A semester later, Student A points at a handsome man walking in the distance. “Who's that? I've never seen him before.” Student B thinks it over. “I think I saw him once at the start of term... Oh, he's that PE teacher who's always sick.”
Everyone thinks Chen Yi is slacking off. Only he knows what lurks beneath the surface of this seemingly peaceful daily life.
In a nutshell: A Taoist priest starts a new career, but should've quit that government job sooner.
