"She investigates corpses, solves cases, and flirts with the commander. She's gone wild in a death loop!"
Song Xinci transmigrates and becomes the only daughter of a chief of the Imperial Guard. Before she can enjoy her newfound wealth, she stumbles into a string of murders:
A paper groom comes to collect his bride at midnight. A headless little girl sits motionless in a bridal sedan. The entire Cui family is slaughtered. A blood-written message reads, "The fox swapped the baby"...
One baffling case after another unfolds, and she is bound to a "Puzzle System," trapping her in a death loop:
Fail to solve a case? Die!
Accuse the wrong culprit? Die!
Fail to charm the cold, aloof commander? ...That won't kill her, but it might drive her to her grave!
Scene 1:
One day in the autopsy room, Song Xinci holds a fresh heart and grins as she leans toward Ying Huai, the commander of the Imperial City Bureau.
"Dudu, look, it's still beating!"
Ying Huai turns deathly pale, forcing himself to stay calm. "...Put it away."
"Nope~"
He closes his eyes and takes a deep breath. When he opens them again, he sees her beaming at him, and the heart... is actually a pig's heart!
"Song. Xin. Ci!"
Scene 2:
Ying Huai discovers that when she investigates cases, this girl is sharp and composed, but in private, she loves teasing him for fun.
Until one night, he finds her standing alone in a pool of blood, the tattoo on her back gradually aligning with the puzzle pieces...
It turns out she's the most dangerous "prey" in this conspiracy.

"Bold, flirtatious female coroner x cold, chaste commander"
"She risks her life to solve cases, and he risks his life to protect her"
Blurb for Records of Redress:
"The birthday gift he gave her buried her entire family."
When Shen Zhinian was ten, she received a birthday present from her childhood sweetheart, Gu Xici, unaware that it concealed a death warrant. The Duke of Shen's household was accused of treason, and the evidence was hidden in her birthday box.
The imperial decree arrived, and her entire family was destroyed. The men were beheaded, and the women were exiled.
On the day the long street ran red with blood, she watched helplessly as her father's and brothers' heads rolled into the mud. During the exile, the women were abused and died one after another. Her mother died of illness in her arms. She was abandoned in the wilderness, barely alive...
Eight years later, she returned, remade from the bones up and bathed in blood.
A wandering hero gave her a new life, teaching her martial arts, medicine, and the art of examining corpses and solving cases.
From then on, Chang'an had a cold-faced female coroner: Shen Qingchen.
In the Cat-Faced Groom case, she extracted a poisoned needle from the groom's throat.
In the Yong'an Canal dismemberment case, she pieced together the victim's final words.
In the serial poison mushroom case, she saw through the killer's plot to murder in the name of love...
One strange case after another propelled her to the position of Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, making her the first woman in history to oversee criminal justice.
But no one knew that she searched through mountains of corpses and seas of blood only to uncover the truth behind what happened all those years ago...
"Gu Xici, why did you give my family a debt of blood?"
The young man who had once been as gentle as jade was now the powerful head of the Court of Judicial Review. He held his sword to his chest and let her drive it in, a smile blooming in his eyes. "If my life can satisfy your hatred, then take it."
She sneered, withdrew her sword, and turned to leave.
But she did not know...
Most people have their hearts on the left, but his was on the right.
What she stabbed that day was never his life, but the thing he'd hidden for eight years...
"His true heart."
--
"Only after examining every wronged corpse under heaven did she realize that the heart she most needed to examine was his."
[Gentle, cold-blooded female official x ruthless, devoted powerbroker | Childhood sweethearts turned enemies x mutual salvation]
"I'll make a chessboard of wrongful convictions, wait for you to enter the game, and sentence you to a lifetime with me."
