I died three years ago, then transmigrated into the family of a wealthy merchant in the Great Sheng dynasty. I thought I'd live a life of utter luxury, but it turns out I can see ghosts, and everyone I come into contact with is doomed to bad luck.
For my family and friends, I disguise myself as a man and open a tavern. My main motto is “Keep your distance,” and I'm here to clear the names of ghosts.
He's the famous magistrate of the capital, young and brilliant at solving cases, the ideal husband in the eyes of the city's noblewomen. Too bad he's completely devoted to his work.
During a case involving a young woman, he mistakes me for a suspect and holds a knife to my neck. With my life on the line... I never expected it would kick off our journey solving cases together.
I find corpses for the dead. He clears their names.
No one knows that the dignified magistrate is afraid of ghosts! But I somehow pass on my ability to see them to him. From then on, we're together everywhere, and outsiders mistake us for a couple. He declares righteously: “That is absolutely impossible!”
Until one day, he climbs into my room in the middle of the night and pins me down in bed while I'm asleep. Giving up all pretense, he says, “Being a couple... isn't entirely out of the question.”
Theme: Love is the only way to break the deadlock.
