Counselor, Please, Help Me Out

Xu Jinhuan was just playing an escape room when she transmigrated. She happened to stumble upon a murder scene and was arrested as the culprit.

Xu Jinhuan: “I can explain! I’m innocent!”

Constable: “You were caught red-handed, and you still dare to argue? Look at your bizarre clothes. You’re obviously a bad person!”

Xu Jinhuan thought her time was up. But when she arrived at the county yamen, she saw that the magistrate seated above had a familiar young face, like that of her college counselor.

Seeing a way out, Xu Jinhuan ran over in tears and clung to his leg. “Counselor... I mean, honorable magistrate, I’m innocent!”

Please save me, please save me, Counselor, help!

You Yan: ...

He looked down at his student, who had turned into a walking sieve, and felt a long-familiar headache coming on. It was just like every time in the modern world he had to deal with her leave requests, absences, failing grades, and all the trouble she got into, big and small.

A miserable modern-day counselor who always had to clean up after her students now had to fish one of them out of trouble in ancient times, too.

It was unlucky to get thrown in jail the moment she transmigrated, but having one of her own in charge of the jail made it no big deal. Xu Jinhuan took it in stride, happily using the back door her counselor had opened for her to set up a food stall and start a business in the past.

The next day, she was accused of selling snacks that had killed someone.

Xu Jinhuan: ...

You Yan: ...

Once again, her counselor got her acquitted. Xu Jinhuan refused to give up, asked him for a stall, and set up shop. The next day, she stumbled onto a corpse-dumping case...

Ever since transmigrating, Xu Jinhuan had been spectacularly unlucky. But as she got involved in more and more cases, she gradually discovered a hidden ability.

When she was once again brought to court as a suspect, Xu Jinhuan gave a haughty snort and pointed to the person with the greatest malice toward her among the other suspects. “There’s only one truth. You’re the real culprit!”

Before he could defend himself, the constables who had been waiting nearby swarmed him and bound his hands.

The true culprit stared in shock at the magistrate, who tacitly approved from his seat, and at Xu Jinhuan, who had accused him without a shred of evidence. “You... you people... You’re framing me and covering it up! The officials are in cahoots...”

Xu Jinhuan sneered. “You know whether you did it or not.”

This mysterious buff that makes real culprits hate her with one hundred percent certainty couldn’t possibly be wrong!
