Song Zhaoyuan died, then came back to life.
The Judge of the Underworld told her that her allotted lifespan wasn’t over, but her soul had entered the underworld.
Want to go back?
Sure. Work as a ghost officer for three years and meet your KPIs, and you’ll get your life back.
Song Zhaoyuan stares at the “Dead Yet?” app that installed itself on her phone and falls silent for three seconds.
…You’re a wage slave when you’re alive, and you still have to be one when you’re dead?
Back among the living, Song Zhaoyuan is worrying about how to meet her KPIs when a case lands right in her lap.
A female ghost kneels beside her hospital bed, holding a baby. “Please help me, Your Honor.”
Before Song Zhaoyuan can answer, her phone goes ding.
【A new Dead Yet? order has been automatically accepted. Please handle it promptly.】
Song Zhaoyuan: ??? I can’t refuse an order?
Just as she’s tearing her hair out over the countdown, her newly reunited adopted younger sister comes over.
Xia Xinran blinks. “Sis, are you looking for the Zhao family? I know the way.”
Song Zhaoyuan stares. “How did you know?”
Xia Xinran only smiles.
How could she possibly say…
That in her previous life, when your family was destroyed, I memorized every one of your enemies?
…
Later, Song Zhaoyuan realizes that her little sister is practically a walking mission guide.
She points, Song Zhaoyuan acts, and her performance keeps soaring. She never has to worry about her KPIs again.
Looking at her steadily growing merit tally, Song Zhaoyuan asks sincerely, “Were you an outstanding employee of the Underworld in your last life?”
Xia Xinran smiles. “No. I was your number-one fan.”
And what about that man who always shows up at critical moments to help wrap things up, then disappears without a trace?
One day, Xia Xinran finally can’t resist asking, “Sis, what’s your relationship with Professor Xi?”
Song Zhaoyuan doesn’t even look up. “We’re colleagues.”
Xia Xinran: …What kind of colleague keeps staring at you all the time?
