Urban supernatural suspense + revenge + redemption for wrongful convictions + strong female lead, no romance
The morgue in the world of the living cannot conceal the deepest hatred, and the waters of the River of Forgetfulness in the underworld cannot wash away the wrongs that cry out for justice.
Tan Fusheng was switched at birth while still in her swaddling clothes.
After fifteen bitter years spent wandering and struggling to survive, she returned home and endured three more years of misery.
To the prestigious Tan family in the capital, she was a shameful stain. To the fake heiress, she was merely a stepping stone to wealth and status.
Her parents' scorn and torment were part of her daily life. Her own brother watched coldly as the fake heiress shoved her off a balcony, bringing her life to a silent end.
Luckily, fate left her a sliver of hope, and Tan Fusheng was taken to an unmarked morgue.
Old Qin, who guarded the unmarked morgue, was a hidden watcher between the two realms. Yet he held the ultimate secret art capable of reversing life and death.
And Tan Fusheng, born with an all-yin fate, was the person he had been waiting for all along.
Before Tan Fusheng's cold corpse, Old Qin performed the ultimate spell, “River Between Two Realms.” It could ferry lost souls and forge the uncanny.
From then on, Tan Fusheng broke free of the Three Realms and escaped the cycle of the Five Elements.
She had died unjustly in life, and in death, she belonged to neither realm.
The sealed-away cold cases, the crimes hidden in the shadows, and the cries of wrongfully dead spirits all became opportunities for her to walk between the two realms.
She was a reader of corpses in the morgue, and a ferrier of the wronged between the worlds of the living and the dead.
The morgue lights burned without end, and the River Between Two Realms flowed without cease.
Fusheng: a fleeting life, a blessing of life.
Talking about the character Fu Sheng is so touching! From the innocent soul who was pushed off the balcony to the innocent man who was in charge of the two rivers, he was crazy and sober. The plot is extremely dense. It begins with a fall from the dead and is reborn, and then transitions to a morgue where the souls are read, and the unsolved cases pierce people's hearts. There is no boredom of love at all, only the exhilarating feeling of soul crying and revenge. In the fog of Yin and Yang, she forced her way out of the world, which can be regarded as a refreshing change in the suspense of female protagonists in recent years.
