Qi Du is a temporary night-shift worker at a funeral service center. His base pay is 2,800 yuan. His own mother thinks he brings bad luck, his landlord charges him a disinfection fee, and his blind date blocks him as soon as she hears what he does for a living.
Then, one early morning, a line of text appears on the wrist of a corpse whose cremation papers have already been signed: "The USB drive is in the second drawer of the bedside table. Give it to my granddaughter."
He discovers he can see the unfinished checklist from the deceased's final 48 hours.
Complete it, and the deceased's skills in life become his forever.
Fail, and the deceased comes back to settle the score in person.
On his first job, he inherits thirty years of mechanical repair experience.
On his second, he gains shorthand and information encryption skills.
On his third, the head of the filing division at the city's Paranormal Control Bureau personally delivers a corpse and smiles. "You won't be able to complete this person's checklist."
The deceased is the former head of the filing division.
There is only one line on the checklist: Publish the city's real data on paranormal deaths.
The filing division says the city's paranormal death rate is zero.
But the checklist in Qi Du's hands keeps getting longer.
"I'm just a temp. What exactly are you all afraid of?"
