The full name of the HM rankings is the “Horrible Master Murder Mystery Author Rankings.” They're unofficial but authoritative, based on votes from real players. The top authors can scare players out of their wits and make their stories so brain-teasing that no one can guess the culprit.
Ye Ying, a screenwriter who had been getting by in the capital, is transferred to a branch in a third-tier city to work on a murder mystery platform.
As it happens, He Mu, CEO of a major investment firm and the platform's big-money client, is planning to acquire the murder mystery platform and adapt its content for film and television.
To win He Mu's project, Ye Ying comes up with a plan to sign the three top authors on the HM rankings.
After earning He Mu's approval and bringing him on board, Ye Ying is delighted, thinking she can finally date on the company's dime. But she discovers that the top authors have a spooky aura even in their everyday lives, enough to scare people out of their wits. The very first author leads Ye Ying's team to a remote, eerie mountain village in Thailand... Why does this feel more and more like an immersive murder mystery scenario?
[Bonus Scene]
Ye Ying: Since we're already here, should we take the chance to date our big-money client?
He Mu: I became a client myself so I wouldn't have to deal with difficult clients. How did I end up with a troublesome vendor who wears me down, only to get worn down myself???
Ye Ying: These authors' real-life situations are even more like murder mysteries than the games... No wonder they're all so mysterious...
He Mu: Shh, hurry up and guess who the culprit is. Cast your vote
The film companies, place names, shows, and celebrities mentioned in the book are all made up. Don't read too much into them.
