A similar period crime procedural, Eighties-Era Forensic Doctor, Bringing Her Whole Family to Prosperity, is currently updating.

Synopsis:

[A fortune-telling detective in the criminal investigation world, a master sleuth in the world of feng shui.]

Chen Wenya, the foremost Taoist master of the 21st century, sacrificed herself in a spell formation to protect all living beings. When she opened her eyes again, she was a rookie police officer in 1990s Hong Kong.

Despite graduating with top marks, she was sent to the legendary "that police station," where she would never be assigned a murder case and had no chance of promotion. Being posted there after graduation was practically like being exiled to the frontier.

As the whole station sank into an inescapable retirement-home mood, Chen Wenya pulled out her compass and decided to step up.

"If murder cases won't come to us, we'll go looking for them ourselves."

Her colleagues watched her holding a compass and playing fortune-teller in uniform, and laughed that she'd lost her mind.

Then a neighborhood dispute led them to a headless female corpse in a tenement building.

A wealthy family's quarrel exposed a series of murders.

A feng shui puzzle in a village house in Baisha'ao uncovered a major case involving trafficking and mass killings.

A great-grandmother who paid a fortune to have a child was conned, exposing a criminal network that raised ghost children.

Everyone's jaws dropped. "No way, Master! You're actually serious?"

From then on, "that police station" became Hong Kong's top station for solving cases, and promotions and pay raises came easy.

[A little bonus scene]

Yuan Jialang saw Chen Wenya surrounded by reporters and wealthy people, and strode over in front of the cameras. "Master Chen, why not tell my fortune in love first?"

Chen Wenya gave him a knowing smile. "Inspector Yuan's destined love? It's right in front of you, though you can't see it."

One message sent shockwaves through both circles.

The next day, the Eastern Daily News ran a sensational headline:

"The two occult CID stars turn their act into the real thing?! The spell-casting master and sharpshooting officer reveal a shocking romance!"

[Reader's Guide]

1. A satisfying power fantasy. The golden finger serves the plot. This isn't a realistic feng shui story, and some fortune-telling and feng shui terminology is made up.

2. Both leads are each other's first and only; happy ending; sweet romance by my definition.

3. The feng shui mysteries reveal the unfathomable nature of humanity. There are no supernatural murder cases.

4. Remember to put Guagua somewhere sunny in your favorites and let it grow in peace. I'll bloom all on my own!

Currently updating: Eighties-Era Forensic Doctor, Bringing Her Whole Family to Prosperity

Yan Yuzhen had worked as a forensic doctor for five years. One day, she woke up and found herself back in 1985.

The good news: She was still a forensic doctor.

The bad news: In this era, forensic medicine was even more neglected than a cold bench.

The autopsy room was in the basement, the scalpel was a secondhand reject from surgery, and while outsiders trusted the criminal police, they thought forensic doctors were "bad luck."

Meanwhile, her poor relatives were so eager to leech off her that they might as well have been sucking her dry.

It was a nightmarish start. She was broke and trapped on all sides, with every hardship urging her to quit and go into business, as the times encouraged.

Then she touched her first corpse.

The mangled remains before her eyes automatically reassembled into the deceased's whole body, like a hologram, replaying the cause of death before her.

At that moment, she knew she could never walk away.

From then on, her scalpel flashed coldly as she gave a voice to the silent dead.

A case of two bodies burned together: She dug the hidden culprit out of the charred remains.

A corpse cooked in a restaurant: One finger bone turned the whole case around.

A body dumped from a train: She pieced together hundreds of remains and found the dead a place to rest.

One difficult case after another was laid bare beneath her scalpel. The police station's case-solving rate soared, and the once-overlooked forensic department became indispensable overnight.

She led her family out of hardship, step by step, while advancing forensic science in China by leaps and bounds.

Under the glare of the media, a reporter held out a microphone and asked, "Doctor Yan, how do you find the crucial evidence in a corpse so precisely?"

Yan Yuzhen simply closed her eyes. "Listen! The corpse is speaking."

Theme: The truth will never be buried!
