Song Dynasty Coroner: Every Powerful Official at Court Is a Modified Human

On his first day as a coroner in the Song Dynasty, Lin Huaizhen is dragged to the execution ground and ordered to examine the body of an official who supposedly “committed suicide.” > He cuts open the chest and freezes. There’s no heart inside, only a mechanical heart installed backward. > That’s when he realizes that half the court officials aren’t human. > No matter. He has two modern master’s degrees, one in forensic medicine and one in mechanical engineering. They may look convincing, but in the end, they’re all machines. > Starting today, anyone with a backward-installed heart can come to him to have it removed.
