After Running Away From Home, I Became an Unofficial Constable

[Bonus extras will be updated gradually. Chapters posted after 25.6 have already been carefully revised one by one. I'm currently updating a new Comprehensive Martial Arts novel, The Demonic Path Young Master's Simulator. Interested readers, come check it out. Muah!]

Ling You, who lived in seclusion with her parents deep in the mountains, dreamed of becoming a great hero.

But her elders were so overprotective that they wouldn't let her set foot in the martial world.

After failing to run away from home eighty-one times, she finally succeeded!

Roaming freely through the martial world, solving one strange case after another:

Three murders in one night in a mountain town.

The Saint of Thieves comes out of retirement, stealing with a deft hand and vanishing without a trace.

A killer's code, and a maze of clues governed by the Five Elements.

An uninhabited island conceals deadly danger, with no chance of survival.

Wait, am I a great hero, or some kind of freelance constable?

Mysteries abound, with one case hidden inside another.

With a powerful enemy before her, a threat laced with menace: "It's your own fault for insisting on investigating a case that shouldn't be investigated."

Ling You sneered. "In all the vast world, what case can't I investigate?"

[Content Warnings]

1. No CP, female-led story. The main plot follows the heroine solving cases. The male supporting characters are friends who help the heroine and bring out the story.

2. An ancient-style mystery novel. Some cases are adapted from historical mysteries or real-life cases, so they may seem familiar.

3. The heroine is both strong and clever, with a character-growth arc. The three cases in Volume One move at a fast pace. Volume Two has a stronger suspenseful atmosphere, Volume Three emphasizes the martial-world setting and wuxia style, and Volume Four features a semi-ensemble cast.

Theme: Be independent and self-reliant, and do what you can to uphold social fairness and justice
