[Imaginative everyday adventures + mystery and exploration + hilarious, no heroine + iron-blooded ensemble cast]
“What kind of top-scoring exam ace goes to a neighborhood office to catch ghosts?”
Chen Sui'an, the top student in the joint entrance exam, resolutely turns down a lucrative offer from headquarters and asks to be assigned to the lowest-level office of all: the Sunset Red Neighborhood Office.
On his first day, he sees the leaking roof, the trembling security guard, and four good-for-nothing rookies. Chen Sui'an takes a deep breath. “Let's get to work!”
But every case he takes on is more absurd than the last: a wish-granting machine that loves money, a mutated stray cat that steals and eats starch sausages, a delivery guy who keeps getting caught in ghostly loops…
Chen Sui'an: If it can be handled with fists, don't waste words! How about a good old-fashioned physical seal?
He doesn't get a System in this run-down place, but he does find a group of “family” members who are so fiercely protective of their own that they've gone completely overboard. The old director, who lost his son, treats him like the apple of his eye. His former legendary mentor tells everyone, “My apprentice is a genius.”
When a mysterious villainous organization tries to destroy the city, it discovers in despair that the toughest obstacle in the whole place is none other than the most unremarkable neighborhood office!
Chen Sui'an wipes the blood from the corner of his mouth and draws his cracked long saber. “The Sunset Red Neighborhood Office is on the job. All unauthorized ghosts and oddities, clear out!”
No System, just brains and brawling: a thrilling, battle-scarred masterpiece wrapped in a light comedy!
