Ring of Country Lanes [Crime Investigation]

Blurb Yue Qian, the most handsome and image-conscious deputy captain of the Major Crimes Unit, came home after solving a murder case and fell straight into bed. When he woke, he was no longer in his own luxury apartment. Instead, he found himself in a shabby village house with newspaper pasted over the walls. He had transmigrated into the body of a rookie recruit with the same name. The original owner had been injured while trying to stop villagers from fighting and was recuperating at home. Yue Qian decided to make the best of things. He had planned to spend the New Year in peace, then head off to explore the beginner village afterward. But a popular online personality who had come to the village to film went missing. The suspicious "old witch" who had held him as a child was acting strangely. Then a group of children broke into a "haunted house" at night and left a corpse behind. In a neighboring village, there was an even stranger murder involving a wealthy man, and the entire town's funeral troupe had been hired to sing... Everyone Yue Qian looked at seemed suspicious, but the most suspicious was Yin Mo, the funeral business owner. The man was handsome, but he flirted with Yue Qian the moment they met, seduced him in women's clothes, and even made him incur a debt. What kind of decent person spent all day playing at ghosts and spirits? At a glance, this guy was a gloomy, ghostly sort! Yue Qian finally solved this string of cases, only to transmigrate back. So transmigration came with a return ticket? While secretly investigating the truth behind his transmigration, Yue Qian suddenly discovered that this world had a Yin Mo, too! Yin Mo had even made a paper effigy of him! Was this how people secretly loved someone? He was going to scare this handsome man to death! Yue Qian is the shou. Yin Mo is the gong. This is not a traditional police procedural. It contains fantasy and other non-realistic elements, but the cases themselves are solved using police work alone, without any supernatural assistance. I also have two full-length crime novels in my "Heart" series, Heart Casket and Heart Struggle. Feel free to check them out if you're interested. Theme: Justice is always within reach.
