Synopsis

This is the story of a temp worker getting promoted and earning a raise in a supernatural age. Everyday life + wild ideas + bizarre rules + lighthearted comedy

His daily routine was stamping forms and issuing certificates, with a little gossip on the side. As Xiang Fei, earning just 3,800 yuan a month, why should he risk his life?

Then one day, he discovered that the whole world had been loaded with the Will of Domination. One bizarre event after another began happening, and no two were alike.

Xiang Fei later found out that people who picked up a pen would forget to turn off the gas. People who looked back would lose a yuan. People who opened a door would be turned into roast duck.

Director Li: Xiang Fei, go figure out these bizarre rules. Xiang Fei: I haven't even made them up yet. Do I really have to do that much as a temp?

Director Li: Then handle ten cases a day. Xiang Fei: ...

After the Bureau of Bizarre Affairs was founded, Xiang Fei's life got a little easier. He went from being a temp to an assistant investigator, earning 12,000 yuan a month. It was enough for the girl at home to buy ready-made meals.

Director Li: What? Xiang Fei became an assistant investigator? I've worked diligently for ten years and only just made assistant investigator, and you're telling me a temp got promoted to assistant investigator? How is that fair?

P.S. Dogs really can climb trees.

Don't recommend anything where the protagonist's surname is Ye or Ling, where the protagonist has a cute little sister, or where the protagonist is a bleeding-heart do-gooder. In short, no stupid novels. The darker and more ruthless, the better! Kill, kill, kill!!!

Proper Rule-Based Horror Stories, No Bait-and-Switch

I'm looking for rule-based horror stories like The Zoo Mystery. At least most of the rules should be correct, and violating them should result in contamination rather than instantly kicking the bucket. An ordinary person who stays alert should have a chance of making it through, instead of it being completely dependent on an overpowered cheat that nobody can survive without.
