The Curator for Cultural Relics [Mystery]

Ancient bronze mirrors, rosewood beds, tables, chairs, vases, plates, and other objects are the original inhabitants of this space.

The cat folk, wolf folk, flower spirits, and others travel through this space, choosing it as a waystation.

All these things together make up a museum that opens at midnight and closes at dawn. It becomes the twenty-eighth birthday gift Ran Xi receives from her grandfather.

Mediating arguments, arranging divorces, attending weddings: there is always so much to do.

Thefts, kidnappings, fires, and brawls: all sorts of things are their responsibility.

Ran Xi asked the mysterious spirit Mo Ting, "Isn't my job basically the same as a neighborhood committee auntie's?"

Mo Ting was cooking. "To be precise, you're a neighborhood committee girl. All the spirits here are at least several hundred years old."

Notes:

1. There is a little light suspense, but this isn't a conventional suspense novel. It's something of a mix between a slice-of-life farming story and light suspense.

2. All the historical elements in the story are fictional.

Theme: All things have a spirit
