Gu Heng was a senior auditor of an accounting firm during his lifetime, and became the seventh auditor of the underworld after his death.
She originally thought she was just going to work somewhere else - to settle her accounts and reincarnate as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, the accounts in the underworld are more messy than those in the upper world.
Po Meng used the recipe book as an account book, and three hundred years of Wangchuanlu disappeared without a trace;
Hei Wuchang opened a "last words collection service", and even offered money if the KPI failed to meet the standards for three consecutive months;
There is an old ghost at Qiaotou who has been running a stall for sixty-two years without a license. He sells something called "memory candy", the raw material of which is his own memories;
The dead Internet celebrity is still selling goods live, just because there is a fan in the world who leaves messages every day: "I want to die today, but you are still here, so I will wait one more day"...
Gu Heng used her Excel and professional suspicion to check them one by one.
She checks other people's accounts, calculates other people's numbers, and helps others sort out their confusing accounts.
But one day, inside the paper package, I found a letter from the underworld——
The postmark was the third day after her death. The letter read: "Son, work hard and remember to eat."
It turns out her family didn't know she was dead.
What's even stranger is that in the memory jar that Meng Po has collected for three hundred years, there is a face that looks exactly like hers.
The Book of Life and Death was never wrong - until Gu Heng discovered that it had been wrong for three hundred years.
This is a novel about "account".
Some people spend three hundred years looking for a forgotten face, some people spend 62 years waiting for a promise that never comes, and some people record tens of thousands of last words just to make up for one unspoken word.
Gu Heng said that the accounts must be balanced. But she slowly discovered——
Some accounts cannot be settled. Some people can't forget.
Behind some numbers, there is something more important than numbers.
Purpose: Every soul has obsessions that cannot be let go. What is audited is not the accounts, but the human heart.
