[Transmigrate into a book + Great Song detective cases + rule-based horror + funny office worker + undercover agent with a powerful dad + no saintly heroine]
Shen Yan transmigrates into the daughter of a disgraced official in Great Song, facing the miserable fate of exile and conscription.
Desperate for a way to make a living, she grits her teeth and joins the Imperial City Bureau’s Night Patrol, a job with a 99% mortality rate.
The Night Patrol is said to deal with supernatural horrors every day, while its higher-ups treat junior agents as disposable. They rarely last three days.
Her colleagues ostracize her, her superiors look on coldly, and everyone is waiting for the vengeful ghost on her first field assignment to tear her apart.
Then she steps into her first assignment, the supposedly fatal “City God Temple Eats People” tale.
Just as the evil spirit is about to snap her neck, Shen Yan calmly pulls a sinister-looking handbook from her robes and points to a regulation. “Article Three of the Great Song Underworld Labor Protection Act: No beating temporary workers while on the job. Go ahead, try laying a finger on me.”
The evil spirit sneers. “Who do you think you are?”
Shen Yan sighs and lights a sheet of yellow paper. “Dad, someone’s bullying your daughter.”
The next moment, the horror tale collapses. The underworld’s highest-ranking judge tears through the void with a hundred thousand ghost soldiers and pins the evil spirit to the ground, beating it senseless. “You dare touch my daughter? You’re out of business!”
From then on, Great Song has a workaholic official who makes every ghost wail and every court official tremble.
Faced with pressure from the powerful and vicious supernatural horrors, Shen Yan uses the ultimate logic of an overworked office drone and astonishing ingenuity to break through every impasse.
The supernatural world wails as one: “Don’t mess with her! It’s bad enough that she’s a workaholic powerhouse. She’s got powerful people backing her up, too!”
