Q: What should you do if your house is haunted?
A: Don’t call a Taoist priest. Call the Supernatural Incident Hotline first. A haunting can get you compensation.
Lu Li graduated with a degree in actuarial science. On his first day at the Claims Department of the Supernatural Affairs Bureau, he discovered that the vengeful spirit was the victim, while the living landlord was the one in debt.
His supervisor was speechless. Even the ghost was moved.
He specializes in bizarre claims: when ghosts come to plead their case, he takes it; when people commit insurance fraud, he fines them; he can even take a killer’s abilities to settle their debt. And no matter how unlucky you are, he can calculate it down to a percentage.
The base salary is rock bottom, but the commission has no ceiling. He spends his days at the office doing grunt work and his nights balancing the books with a fourth-rank debt-collecting ghost.
Others cultivate immortality by meditating. He levels up by closing cases.
