    I. Shen Huai, a forensic doctor, transmigrates into the world of "The Grave Robbers' Chronicles." Because his original body is too weak, the system, fearing he would die immediately, creates an alias for him called Shen Hezhao. Hezhao then embarks on a journey with a coffin containing his original body. This includes a series of events (such as traveling back in time to save Xiao Zhang and others, and confessing his love to his brother, saying "I'll laugh at you for life"), while also acting aloof and a riddle-solving expert (with various interpretations). However, he actually has a lot of inner monologues: planning big things with the system, teasing others, and complaining about the current situation. His alias is also quite pitiful, evoking much sympathy. The alias and the original body are also very compatible; nausea is great! I cried when I saw the founding of the People's Republic of China. [No romance, suitable for outsiders (I am an outsider)] II. The second part of the first book, although not described in detail, shows how miserable Huai's life was during this time; he even became a male ghost. Fortunately, the system returned. III. Mr. 39'S greatness needs no further explanation; you can skip directly to Chapter 2, as some people may not be able to accept the protagonist's appearance before the transformation. The protagonist is a character who grows through challenges, but his initial aura of superiority remains intact as he follows Xiao Wei through dungeons. It's the kind of story where you treat them like carry, but they treat you like bosses? Later, people imagine him as a powerful figure who survives for a long time and accomplishes tasks in dungeons.

    I happen to have a book on my bookshelf that fits the bill. The protagonist is the expressionless second senior brother, who is seen as an unattainable beauty by the other disciples in the sect. However, one day, those loyal to the sect can hear his inner thoughts and discover that he not only has a crush on the eldest senior brother (it's fake, he's just an idol), but also enjoys playing matchmaker for the disciples and shipping couples. Note: The entire book is currently being revised, but the latest chapters are all complete, so you can read it without worry. Warnings: The protagonist only awakens his past life memories after entering the sect and discovers that he is a transmigrator. He knows the original plot by heart, but due to the influence of the Heavenly Dao, he only remembers to buy the romance novel at crucial moments. The protagonist's romantic partner is still undecided. The author once commented that whoever is both the female and male protagonist is the protagonist's 0.5, Because that makes shipping couples easier.
