[Immersive murder-mystery games + working for the underworld + mystery-solving + all-around power fantasy + light comedy]
Top criminal profiler Jiang Li transmigrates into the body of a terminally ill fake heiress and, from the start, owes the underworld ten billion!
To stay alive and pay off her debt, she takes over a bankrupt murder-mystery game shop and binds herself to the Cause and Effect Settlement System.
Other people need money to open a shop. Her shop needs people to die!
No NPCs? She hires vengeful ghosts and wronged geniuses with “around-the-clock underworld labor contracts.”
No good scripts? She recreates bizarre unsolved cases in immersive games!
She only meant to make money, but things get out of hand:
A swaggering serial killer is reduced to sobbing in terror as victim NPCs haunt him in a locked-room game, begging the police to arrest him;
An untouchable young heir from a powerful tycoon family gets stripped down to his underwear in a game and walks away with a shiny pair of handcuffs;
Her fake-heiress family expects to laugh at her, only to discover that big shots from all over the internet now treat her like royalty!
Later, even Bo Jue, the richest man with an immensely auspicious destiny and severe insomnia, becomes the shop’s number-one fan.
Master Bo: “Boss Jiang, can I hold you while I sleep during tonight’s horror game?”
Jiang Li tosses out a stack of contracts for the living and the dead. “Overnight rates cost extra! Also, Lord Yama, want to guest-star as tomorrow’s villain NPC? The pay is 20,000 underworld coins a day.”
