[One Female Lead] [Not an Invincible Protagonist] [Urban Supernatural Mysteries] [High-Stakes Action from Start to Finish]
My name is Ye Qing. I'm twenty-two, a corporate drone who graduated three months ago, and the only White-Rank trainee candidate in the history of Jiangcheng's Supernatural Affairs Bureau.
Everyone in the bureau knows I'm the one person who absolutely cannot die.
Not because I'm good in a fight or because I can draw talismans and chant incantations. Shen Zhaoxue can punch through the skull of a third-tier ghost, Lu Huaishan can use a single thunder talisman to blow up half a haunted street, and Qin Buyu can chat with ghosts more easily than with people. As for me, all I can do is hide behind them and use my eyes to see the future.
I can see every scenario in which my teammates and I die.
In the rearview mirror of the last No. 44 bus, there's a faceless version of me, wearing the exact same white shirt, with blood still wet on its fingertips. In a paper effigy shop on Fushou Street, the paper craftsman is burning a stand-in made from my photograph, my birth date and time written in cinnabar on the paper figure's chest. In the ledger of the Yin Debt Hall on Paper Bridge Lane, my death certificate was written three months in advance, signed by the Black Lantern Society.
Other people fight their way through the supernatural with fists and knives. I do it by seeing death.
Then one day, the Black Lantern Society's Pact Master told me, "Every future you've seen was deliberately shown to you by us."
That's when I learned that from the moment the first ghost-car feather landed on me, I had become the most valuable prey in the entire supernatural world.
