On his way home late in the evening, Xiao Li found a letter asking for help and inexplicably came to an unknown place. He had to finish the task given before he could succeed in returning to reality. In the legendary haunted school, Xiao Li looked at his companions’ task of ‘survive until dawn’ and then looked at the tasks displayed in his book:
Tell me your name.
Tell me what you like.
Kiss me.
Xiao Li: ????
He was very confused and then refused.

- Theres... like zero tension in any of the instances. The MC just walks around and does whatever he wants with no consequence because he's being protected by ML. The mysteries of the instances and the ghosts will just eventually be solved because the MC will conveniently get hand-held as he takes merry strolls. Then he just deduces everything. The end. I think it's supposed to be funny when people react to him doing supposedly dangerous things and coming out unscathed, but the way the author writes it makes it really matter-of-fact. It doesn't have the comedic punch it should like it does in other novels. It should be suspenseful or it should be funny. But it's neither.
Honestly, the first two ghosts that the MC meets and befriends are more interesting characters than ML or MC. And they don't even do that much. <<less- The story follows Xiao Li, who suddenly receives a note asking for help and finds himself not in school, but in a ghost instance with people around, yellow book in his hand and a ghost case to solve. Thus he becomes a reincarnator, who enters ghost worlds to solve mysteries to turn back home. The little yellow book he got acts different from others, because it acts perverted and wants to become his boyfriend.
- The instances are quite quick-paced. There is no beating around the bush, it doesn't aim to scare you with 'wooh, it's spooky, because I said so', they are quick stories that are easily cracked by our clear-headed and bold MC. There is more emphasis on his interations with ghosts, how people react to his words and actions mixed in short yet full descriptions of different cases. Instances don't give unreasonable rules for clearance, either crack the case or survive till the end and they don't hinder reincarnators (most reincarnators will do it themselves :)), so it's pretty easy and simple read.
- MC. Outwardly he lacks in compassion or any interest, it feels that he's indifferent due to neglect in his life, so he thinks of himself and his own comfort first in any situation. But in his actions you realize that he's blunt, straightforward and doesn't lack kindness. But due to limited emotional range Xiao Li was more than welcoming the thrill of becoming a reincarnator. That's why he doesn't treat it like any other reincarnator. He doesn't follow the stereotype of being scared (e.g. Screaming team from "Game, live stream"), on the contrary it feels as if he's silently asking a question - well, why can't we do this instead? And he doesn't treat ghosts as others do, he terats them like he would treat anyone else. Which makes the whole thing quite funny. Small things make you realize that he actually cares about the ghosts he collects, from small rub on the dolls head for a job well done to downloading games and apps for the kid ghost in his phone. I honestly think that they're like awkward friends. Xiao Li and Co.
- ML. Many will say that he's a creep, I mean I won't be surprised seeing people doing so, he comes as overbearing and some of his monologues are nothing but dirty talk (sure thing it comes as strange, because they're not dating and he already acts as if they're married for 15 years and tried everything) though same people who claim him as weird rate same type of ML in other novels as ok, which I find hypocritical. But through MC pov you realize that MC doesn't condone or accept this type of behavior and ignores ML. Author changes his attitude later, which I think is logical, because it started at some point that ML realized that what he's doing does nothing and it's wrong, which allies with initial point.
Anyway, it's a light ghost humorous read (well, for ppl who find such stuff funny) and I'm excited for how it'll go. Especially who is ML, because that guy is definitely not simple (though with him being cold, with ghosts being scared of him and him being able to enter the yelow book it's pretty obvious who he is).
