Office of Unnatural Deaths

When Chen Li was choosing a major, he came across one called Investigations into Unnatural Deaths, with a special note:

"Guaranteed employment, only open to those destined for it~"

Considering his embarrassing exam scores and the passion he'd had since childhood, he applied, thinking it was a criminal investigation major.

Then it turned out he was the only student in the entire program. His teacher was also his master. The curriculum was all over the place: drawing talismans, catching ghosts, banishing evil, performing rites for the dead, and relocating graves.

Chen Li: I must have enrolled in some kind of bogus degree.

But in his sophomore year, his master went out to exorcise evil and never returned, leaving him a house and a mountain in his care.

From then on, Chen Li caught ghosts, banished evil, and relocated graves. He became an officially recognized, half-baked celestial master, and professional agencies often contacted him to handle cases of unnatural death.

It was Chen Li's third time relocating a grave. An ancient tomb had been discovered at a construction site, though it was strange to call it a tomb when there was only one coffin, sealed with seven soul nails.

After the construction crew dug up the black coffin, strange things kept happening at the site. So many workers were frightened that they refused to come in. With the subway construction behind schedule, the authorities contacted Chen Li.

The resting place of an ancestor had been disturbed, and the local spiritual energy had been disrupted. The site was no longer suitable for burial, so the coffin had to be moved and reinterred at once.

Only those who had been dead for a long time, or who had died unnatural deaths, could be buried on Mount Santong, which his master had left to him. On the night Chen Li buried the coffin, an old ghost climbed into his bed...

The old ghost was incredibly clingy and a total green tea, and no amount of funeral rites could get rid of him.

Yin Zheng smiled, his eyes curving: "If you're buried at your place, that makes me your boyfriend."

Chen Li was stunned. How did this old ghost even know what a boyfriend was? Hadn't he been dead for years?!
