In the Instance, I Brushed Past the Boss

[Bonus chapters for this novel are currently being updated!]

Breaking news! Pei Qingyi falls through an unknown rift and arrives on Blue Star, where she gets swept into a mysterious and dangerous role-playing game.

The good and bad news: she has no memories, but she's thriving~

But after barely making it through one instance, Pei Qingyi raises an eyebrow with ease.

Wait, I thought my combat ability was average. Am I actually the strongest of them all?

Her admirers: Sob, we're so weak, boss! Please carry us!

The head of the National Security Special Department: I'm presentable in public, good in the kitchen, and a jack of all trades. How about considering me?

Pei Qingyi: ...

(Her admirers: No way!)

The head of the National Security Special Department, a sunny puppy-like computer genius, a beautiful social menace, a younger man with a complicated background who has supposedly "turned over a new leaf"...

And the beings who followed her out of the instances.

At the National Security Special Department:

At first

*

"Would you be willing to join us?"

"I'm used to being on my own."

Later

*

"Keep moving. Don't look back, "

"I said I'd take you out with me, and I won't let go."

Campus Trial:

"If no one will save me, I'll pick up a knife myself."

I stood at the very center of the crime, watching it unfold.

Holding a character card with muddled memories, I was forced to relive the story again and again.

I will break the stance of the cold, indifferent observer.

What gift will a "person" who feels love for the first time give to their savior?

Urban Cultivation Horror:

"This city is full of secrets and blood."

A village filled with ghosts and monsters, cultivation manuals sweeping across the city.

I escaped the trap I'd set for myself, only to discover I was already caught in a much larger one

The soul can leave the body to cultivate, but one of the three souls and seven spirits is missing.

Paper effigies returning to life, sacrifices to the gods, the reason a city was wiped out a century ago...

What blessing will be bestowed upon those who rescue a imprisoned god?

Zombie Siege at the End of the World:

"What a show. Are you watching, or taking part?"

Zombies rain from the sky, threatening the survival of humanity.

Will you turn your knife on yourself, or draw it against the zombies?

If every choice you make is being watched,

unknown spectators decide your fate.

Can you seize a sliver of hope and claim the right to make the rules?

Blizzard Detective Night:

"Can someone who lies through their teeth be a detective?"

A lavish, pleasure-filled banquet.

A prince about to inherit the throne, a lonely noblewoman longing to become his princess consort,

the well-mannered butler's son, a mysterious countess, and a renowned detective...

A sudden blizzard traps them all here.

"Distinguished guests, I apologize for the situation, but we invited only one detective."

Then how is it that two people present have stepped forward, both claiming to be detectives?

If they fulfill the banquet host's wish, will they gain ownership of this manor, which represents the entire instance?

Mysterious Apartment Tenants:

"Can you still remember who you are?"

An eerie apartment building.

The landlady in the red dress who likes to knock on doors in the dead of night; the apartment upstairs, where a plumber lives, though the sound of water dripping can be heard there at midnight;

and a justice-minded profiler who retired after developing PTSD from a special case,

as well as you, a famous psychologist who chose to move into this strange apartment building after finishing treatment for your previous patient.

If you know that only one person can leave and whoever stays behind will be erased, what choice will you make?

After surviving every instance, recovering her memories, and becoming an anchor for this world, she will no longer be bound by the instances.

A meticulous, all-around top-tier female lead X a suspicious and rational male lead at first, then an old flame rekindled and hopelessly in love

[Please Note]

1. The heroine was not human before. In Chapter One, she learns quickly through study and imitation and basically figures out how to fit into human society. Emotionally, you can think of her at first as an AI learning to act human, but please note that she is not an AI (emphasis).

2. The heroine is impressive in every way, but her amnesia from the start affects her abilities. This is most noticeable in the first instance, so readers who mind can skim it.

The heroine is very intelligent and learns quickly. If that doesn't come across, it's because the author has limited intelligence.

3. Some foreshadowing only comes into play much later. It's not a plot hole~

4. No shipping male-male couples. Slow-burning plot, fictional setting.

Theme: Love is the true meaning of the world.
