The True Believer Is Raising Dogs the Scientific Way Again Today

Whatever, I'm done trying.

One day, Yue Jian woke up in a world of detective fiction. The System told him it was a manga world connected to a forum in the real world, and that gaining enough popularity would grant him any wish.

Yue Jian smiled faintly and started stacking buffs:

[Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Buff] [Sickly Buff] [High-IQ Buff] [Master Dog Trainer Buff]...

After Yue Jian stacked one buff after another, the System could only exclaim, "Well, I'll be!"

And now, for the melodramatic blurb:

At sunset, the sickly novelist smiled faintly. His pure-white hair turned blood-red in the fading light, and his eyes gleamed like precious rubies, even more brilliant than the setting sun.

The novelist lowered his head. "Little detective, how can you be sure that what you see is real?"

Under the sunlight, a police officer with amber eyes trembled as he cut the final wire. Over the phone, the young detective screamed at him to run.

But the officer hung up. The sunlight outside was lovely, just as it had been on the day he met the novelist.

With a deafening boom, the explosion sent debris flying. The undercover agent assigned to the police headquarters ultimately died in the line of duty, giving his life for the people.

The golden-haired public security officer's childhood friend mysteriously "came back to life." The officer was overjoyed, but his childhood friend tugged at the collar around his neck. His blue catlike eyes wavered. "I'm sorry, Bourbon. I'm Lord Brandy's hunting dog."

The officer shattered on the spot.

The manga forum was left crawling on the floor, wrecked by Yue Jian's angst-inducing twists. Every day, readers searched for sweetness amid the angst.

The white-haired novelist smiled. "What does any of that have to do with me?"

*Quite short, updates are irregular. Read at your own risk.

*No CP. I may not save many people. The protagonist is a chaotic troublemaker who enjoys the show, and probably can't be redeemed.
