I Follow the Rules of the Ghost Stories, but They Never Said I Could Not Exorcise Ghosts

The System dangled money as bait, and Jin Zhao took it without hesitation.

One was smug about her own con artistry; the other was set on winning the prize money.

When Jin Zhao entered a survival game for the first time, she discovered that everyone around her was a ghost. As an exorcist, she immediately realized this was right up her alley. Just as she was itching to get started, the System shattered her dream.

Jin Zhao: ...

But as soon as she entered the game, she ran into her biggest problem: she couldn't remember the rules!

On her second trip into the game, she discovered that the boss of the new level knew an NPC from the previous one! Before Jin Zhao could get any answers, she was kicked out of the game, and the level collapsed because the boss had deliberately broken the rules.

Back in the real world, she was horrified to discover that the game levels had appeared in her world, plunging the entire planet into panic. At first, all she wanted was the prize money to save her senior sister. Now she also had the responsibility of saving the world.

“We need someone talented like you,” said the official in charge, earnestly.

“Does it come with a government position? Six kinds of insurance and a housing fund? A thirteenth-month salary?” Those were what Jin Zhao cared about most.

Armed with promises from the higher-ups, she entered level after level. As long as she cleared them, she could stop them from appearing in the real world.

But one mysterious phone call brought everything to a halt. Just as Jin Zhao was at a loss, her master, who had already passed away, appeared in the game, and the truth about her origins began to emerge.
