No Romance Talk at the Crime Scene 1.0

The blurb for the upcoming novel "The Crime-Solving Lover" is below.

A cool, reserved criminal investigation captain x a crime expert with dissociative identity disorder

● A criminal investigator who seems cold but is warm inside x a sweet, soft-spoken actress queen with a flair for drama

● Standalone and serial cases, with sound, self-consistent deduction

"Don't try to challenge the rules of justice. In the abyss of darkness, the law grants me light to extinguish evil, and I sing a song of hope for those who died unjustly."

The decisive criminal investigation captain Jiang Cha admitted at a press conference that she had mishandled a case. She was ostensibly promoted but actually demoted to Yuzhou City to investigate a notorious serial rape and dismemberment case.

The day she arrived in Yuzhou was also the grand awards ceremony of the Wanchuan Film Festival. The stars vied to outshine one another on the red carpet, and the hugely popular A-list actress Ji Huangxi stole the show and took home the Best Actress award.

A murder took place at the hotel where Jiang Cha was staying, and the two met by chance amid the chaos.

The policewoman leaped across rooftops to chase the killer and investigate the case, while the sweet actress went all in on her performance, her acting skills on full display. Their fates began to intertwine wildly, until they were bound together without end.

Under Ji Huangxi's elaborate schemes and over-the-top acting, Jiang Cha wound up moving into her home by a twist of fate, beginning a secret life together.

Every day, the little love-struck lesbian's heart pounds and spins without a break.

A scene from the story, Date Number 101:

Jiang Cha takes her girlfriend to queue outside the courthouse.

Ji Huangxi is fully disguised, darting furtive glances around, afraid the paparazzi will follow her and snap photos.

Ji Huangxi: "You had to bring me to the courthouse first thing in the morning for a date. Could you be any less romantic?"

Jiang Cha: "This place is perfect for keeping the paparazzi away. Civil disputes, criminal trials, every kind of hearing is covered. We can learn about the law and see all kinds of people. What a great date spot!"

Ji Huangxi: "Other people get the whole package: flowers, surprises, and candlelit dinners. With you, it's a live broadcast of a massive dispute at the courts. Can't you be a little more reliable?"

Jiang Cha: "I wanted to take you to an amusement park, too~ But you're a high-profile little troublemaker!"

Reader's guide:

1. The cover shows Jiang Cha's character design. Her short hair is required for her job. No stereotypes, please.

2. No attacks on the way the police are portrayed.

3. More plot than romance. It's a modern alternate universe with plenty of original worldbuilding. Don't start fights. Happy ending.

The blurb for "The Crime-Solving Lover"

Ji Nanxing is the youngest criminal investigation captain in Zhouhai City. She's beautiful, intelligent, and strong, a monster with no weaknesses and an obsessive need for cleanliness and order.

During an undercover mission, the police and criminals engaged in a fierce shootout. She nearly died in a hail of bullets while saving a teammate, but a mysterious woman suddenly appeared and rescued her.

In a private room at a bar, the woman flirted with her and acted frivolously, then boldly claimed her first kiss under the pretext of saving her life.

That dazzling kiss through their fingers became a nightmare Ji Nanxing couldn't escape. She thought they would never cross paths again, but they met at a crime scene.

The woman was cool and distant, as if they had never met. "Hello, Captain Ji. I'm Gu Shinian, the third-party forensic science director."

Ji Nanxing gritted her teeth. "What are you pretending for? That you've forgotten someone important?"

Gu Shinian is the sole heir to the Gu family. She could have run the family conglomerate, but instead she parachuted into the criminal investigation team as a criminal psychology expert.

An apparently ordinary suicide leads to a string of mysterious murders. The gruesome crime scenes cause an uproar throughout the city, and under pressure from their superiors, the two are forced to become partners on the case.

Gu Shinian finds Ji Nanxing's obsession with cleanliness and pickiness unbearable, while Ji Nanxing is fed up with Gu Shinian's unpredictable ways. The two can't agree on anything and are always arguing, but the whole team ships them because they're so sweet together.

Though their compatibility is in the negative, the two piece together the clues. Seven murder cases, seven deadly sins, and a horrific unsolved case from twenty years ago, all lead to the painful childhoods they would rather not face.

While working together on murder cases, Gu Shinian frequently puts on a whole show of changing personalities. One moment she's solving crimes and catching killers, the next she's coquettish and alluring. Sometimes she's cold and haughty, sometimes violent and unruly.

Ji Nanxing's criminal investigation instincts are razor-sharp, but she still can't figure out what game Gu Shinian is playing.

Until one drunken night of unrestrained pleasure, when the refined Miss Gu falls into the hands of the romantically clueless Captain Ji and reveals a secret she has kept hidden: she has dissociative identity disorder.

Afterward, Gu Shinian bites the bedsheet and regrets everything: How did I end up playing the rocking game with this jerk all night? Could I actually like her? Ha, what a joke! (Face-slapping.jpg)

Gu Shinian: "Aren't you afraid to date different versions of me?"

Ji Nanxing: "Sounds pretty exciting, actually."

Come on, of course she's afraid! By day, she solves cases like an exhausted workhorse; by night, she draws a random personality from a blind box.

Captain Ji says: The dating experience is far too varied, painful yet pleasurable.

Theme: Justice is the sword, the law is the shield, and sin will ultimately be reduced to ashes beneath the blazing sun.
