Hei Xiao, who was a famous assassin, could never have imagined that one day, he would be shot in the head. This was retribution.

But he didn’t die.

When he opened his eyes, two men and a woman were gathered around the bed and kindly told him that he had ‘amnesia’: “You are our good, beloved coworker.”

Hei Xiao asked, “What’s our job?”

They replied, “The police~”

Hei Xiao was speechless.

Looking at the strangely pale and thin face in the mirror in front of him, Hei Xiao wished he could die again: God, although I’ve sinned a lot, you don’t have to play me like this!

Hmmm, I don't know how to describe it. I liked the novel but some parts of it were a little off. There seemed to be too many parallels with the characters. All the gongs in the novel fell for the shous first and chased them shamelessly... even to the extent of throwing away all their pride. All gongs were rich and influential. All shous were of lower social status than their gongs and all were a little mean to their gongs. Almost all female side characters were into BL. All... more>> victims of s*x crimes were male. These improbables made the story more 2D.

However, I still enjoyed seeing MC, He Xiao aka Guan Jin, adjust to his new identity and become more human. His new life was happier than his last life.

Spoiler

MC claimed to have amnesia when he transmigrated. His personality was much different than the original body's owner. So ML, Lu Yunyang (a psychologist) was asked by MC's boss to take a look at MC.

MC had considered going back to his old life but he was wary about how he died. He decided to stay on with the police to uncover the truth and kill the person who assassinated him. Turns out the person who put a hit on him was Hermes, MC's next potential target.

Hermes is the leader of an underground intelligence organization. He had MC killed to send a warning to others that he was not someone to mess with.

BIG SPOILER...

...

Hermes true identity turned out to be ML. When ML discovered that he had killed MC's "most important person" and that MC wanted revenge, he arranged for MC to shoot him. ML almost died but survived and vowed to MC that he would spend the rest of his life serving MC. So they did have their happy ending.

Its not as bad as some of the review think it is. Its just a bit infuriating how this revenge the main motivator is resolved. In a almost wishy washy way. I kinda wish they took it seriously, and kinda explored it more. As it feels kinda glossed over a bit. As a reader it kinda pissed me off reading it. And I think the issues I have with the MC and ML stems from here. Other than that its a great book and enjoyed it, it was a laugh... more>> to read. I just wished they took advantage to dive deeper into more emotionally impactful moments. Cuz there was a lot of opportunity, but it felt more like missed opputunities. <<less

Its a good read, I am gonna missed all the characters here. Thank you

I loved this book. I've always been fond of investigative/crime stories and this was really well written.

The crime aspect wasn't too heavy, the romance between the MC and ML had a normal progression and their banter was kinda comedic.

There's just one thing I didn't like, the ML's overbearing attitude, not considering what the MC wanted especially in the aspect of who tops. I find this is a recurring theme in asian BLs where the gong just overwhelms the shou and has his way.

... more>> Still it was well written.

Kudos to the translators. I've been camped at exiled rebels for at least five books now and they do a really great job. <<less

The humour is humouring in this novel, the banter flirting is top notch between the Main Couple, the cases are interesting and not overly convoluted, so you can follow them and solve them as well, the team is cute and easy to love but my god the romance / coupling has huge problems.

Bar one m/m relationship, every single one has huge ongoing consent issues with the ML’s regarding their partners as possessions, actively forcing them to be with them, manipulating them and using their power against them.

Huge warning for the... more>> second couple WJH x Duke in the spoiler and seriously his section at the end should be skipped because you’ll be left breathless with rage and helplessness at how he’s in the relationship and the author trying to make it seems cute, filled love and romance is a total sham.

Spoiler

WJH is given to the Duke who insists on having him from a guy who already keeps / monitors WJH. Duke regards WJH as used goods but still “falls” for him and r*pes him. Author tries to frame it as it isn’t r*pe but WJH made it clear he did NOT want to sleep with him, both verbally and physically but because he’s helpless right now, he stops saying anything. Later when he gets away from the situation he had put himself in, Duke turns up at WJH’s house says he will take him whether his dad agrees or not and acts like he and WJH are harmonious. It’s seriously f*cked up and he f*cks WJH whenever he asks questions and he dresses him up like a doll, giving him no choice. Also earlier a character points out that the Duke is more into WJH than WJH is into the Duke and it’s clear that he’s absolutely correct. WJH doesn’t love the Duke, he doesn’t care about him but he’s been in a sustained relationship with him because he literally has no choice and because he has a hero complex that led him into being someone’s plaything in the first place. The messed up thing is, that the first person he was played with, is clearly the person WJH still has feelings with but for some reason the author chose to keep the racist rapist Duke as partner instead of his actual first love Ou Chen, who btw is also a ducking rapist.

So to reiterate, WJH is in a relationship he realistically can’t ever leave. This is with his second, mildly racist rapist who he has no feelings of love for and who is just as bad if not worse than his first rapist / love, as he is an arms dealer and does shady sh*t in the underworld across the world. I seriously can’t believe at the audacity of the author trying to show this as a happy or romantic relationship, when it’s terribly sad and bleak.

[collapse]

Big brother Lu.

Spoiler

This dude used his influence to get an 18 yr old into a relationship, who would not have a choice to say no because big bro Lu has all the power to ruin him and his career but more than that, he will never stop trying to have him. His relationship with Yan Qing even years later is him semi-treating Yan Qing like a helpless pet and not a partner and again he won’t ever be letting him leave, so Yan Qing resigned himself to the relationship.

[collapse]

ML, oh boy this is a can of worms and Major spoilers.

Spoiler

ML spends the whole novel using his psychology degree to his duke advantage & picking at the vulnerable parts of MC to become a trusted person to him. A red flag already but you kind of let it go because MC needs a friend at the time and it seems to help him out a bit to settle into his new body. But when ML finds out MC is after his persona who leads a shady organisation, he immediately brings his family into it and they all play MC like a fool. Then to placate MC’s rightful need to avenge himself, he makes a whole scenario where he will get shot by MC (who atp has feelings for ML), but not die due to his different physiology & because he has full rescue set up for himself. This is his way of once again manipulating MC, as he knew MC would not want to kill him but would also leave him because he couldn’t get his vengeance done. It’s so scummy and manipulative, especially when we know it’s him who was the reason for MC dying. Author treats this all as a joke, there is no proper time for MC to distance himself from ML and sort himself out, there is also no proper penance from ML. Further on, once MC knows it was MC’s own death and not that of a former lover that he was trying to avenge, ML proceeds to sleep with MC and not actually take time to reflect on the loss MC directly suffered at his hands. It’s quite disconcerting and frankly gives you emotional whiplash on behalf of the MC, who is forced by the author to one setting only, which will acquiesce with anything the ML wants.

[collapse]

All ML’s are obsessed and view their partners as possessions and have entrapped their partners in one way or another into a relationship, which is why I can only give this novel 3 stars. If you are tempted to read it, do yourself a favour and skip the WJH arc at the end. <<less

Better than I thought!

MC and ML are such a mood. Hahahaha...

ML is overbearing, but you can definitely tell he loves the MC very very much and the MC is a tsundere, but you can also definitely tell he loves the ML very very much with how soft he is towards the ML.

Case-solving is fun, and the side characters are just the best.

Recommended. Better than many out there.

There were inconsistencies in the story, where the author forgot what they had written, but nonetheless the story was exciting and mysterious.

Spoiler

get back with the ML as soon as possible. If it were me I still don't know whether I would have disappeared completely or at least tried to.

[collapse]

***I reread it after a year, and I mostly did because I couldn't remember why I was glad about the *spoiler* above, and also I couldn't remember the story completely (or who the ML was). I think because I was somewhat dissatisfied with the ending or how they got together it didn't leave me with an impression, although the story is indeed exciting and mysterious.

Spoiler

Honestly, the deception of the ML wasn't so simple, and everything was calculated by him so yeah I still like that they didnt get back together immediately, and I would have made the ML work a little bit harder.

  • I really think the MC should have disappeared for a couple of years or a few more months at least after he had revealed the truth to the ML at the hospital
  • Then have the ML find him, as he was the top dog of an international intelligent agency
  • Again say all these mushy things, and return to the life they had previously.
  • It would have been easy for the boss to arrange for a cover and reinstate him.

In any case, it still is a great story, worth the time reading it. <<less

hmmm feeling conflicted. honestly a 4.5 ⭐

the overall story and plot is good. though there were definitely some parts that I hoped would be better.

... more>>
Spoiler

to be very honest... I dont think the author made LYY suffer enough for 'killing' HX/Ethan/GJ. like.... he really forgave LYY way too easily...

although I have to agree that tbh it wasn't really LYY that killed him and technically he's not dead yet... but still :// I really did hope that LYY suffered more (the author didnt really write that LYY felt guilt or anything which kinda did make me a little annoyed). but wellll he does treat GJ really well and pampers him alot. plus I do agree that being a police is a good change for GJ and im glad that he can now enjoy life more instead of being part of the group and living a bland life trying to assassinate people. it is basically like a second chance.

also... I do agree that after some time, GJ needed to let the things in the past be in the past. afterall hes alive and has a brand new chance in living a normal life. that itself didnt and wont come easily so instead of dwelling in the past its better to look forward and enjoy his new life.

[collapse]

also... I really liked the second pairing
Spoiler

Seth and WJH! tbh theyre kinda cute. and the back story of the two of them is kinda woohoo! like I kinda didnt expect it but then with them being like that and having such an impressive background, I cant possibly expect them to meet and date normally sooo... im just glad that WJH found his happiness and future in Seth :) afterall I kinda liked WJH's character alot!

[collapse]

Overall... don't look at the bad reviews... they are kinda bad and may easily dissuade you from reading. but in actual fact the story is really not that bad. quite interesting. and the bad parts aren't bad enough to make me stop reading so im telling you to give this a chance! <<less

Didn't expect that this was gonna be a good one, but it was! Spoilers ahead!!

I don't have much to say cause the cases are pretty understandable and it was done very nice. The characters are also pretty good. It was just a bit weird how Wen Jinghan and Duke kept on appearing 😅. I like them but I like main CPs more, anw, there were only short scenes and I'd probably come back to read the special arc of WJH and seth. maybe...

ANw, This was really good, I love our... more>> MC Guan Jin and ML Lu Yunyang. To be completely honest, I expected more from LYY since his background is so OP and all but there wasn't much from him in that aspect but more on his psychology skills, and the fact that the duke is there and also Lu Yunsheng who are both overbearing.,.. I have to say, , he might not be my favorite ML in this story which really tells a lot about my type 🙈. That;s why I still wanna read their story but I wanna move on first with the main CP so I can see their CP as not just a side CP.

The cases are fun, it was a pity, GJ's skills as an assassin weren't shown much, cause he was also OP. there really is a very good potential for them, sad that it was quite short.

Reread? Hmm, I would like to but like I said, ML is not my favorite. SOoo we'll see. BUT. Def recommended <<less

It's a okay read. Not my jam, the flow isn't quite right, the MC isn't likable and his motivation seems weak. The main plot is very forced and I don't think this story is dark at all, but I was still curious to read about the cases.

Just a note, the story could have ended after the cruise case.

I totally recommend this novel if you like reading some mystery. the story is absolutely interesting and emotional.

Although I have a few questions I don't know answers to, I really enjoyed reading it!

Spoiler

what I actually didn't like was the fact that actually HX didn't really intend to find out anything about life of the original owner of his body. I mean, sure, maybe he didn't want to but he didn't have any family or other friends??

ALSO, I don't know whether I'm too s*upid or I've missed something but in the end, has Yan Qing's case was explained?? What I mean is, who was the mu*derer of Zhao Qi and Zhang Xin?

[collapse]

Another thing is YunYang. I actually like his character, especially his development but his forcing himself on GJ... I really didn't like that. <<less

A wonderful funny deep story with some amazingly intricate plotting. I love mystery plots that are all circles within circles. I can't write them myself but I can appreciate them when they are well done! Plus this author has some awesome snappy patter that goes on between the characters that livens up the whole thing.

Besides a lovely intricate story, there are also a large group of interesting, well developed characters with lots of different personalities. (Though it seems the author has a liking for tsunderes) I like that they... more>> are smart and witty and do even more dueling with words than with physical force.

It's just a great bonus that in the extras is a side couple story that is a whole novella in itself that is fully developed while it continues to keep the original couple in the loop.

This is definitely a story that I will enjoy coming back and reading more than once. Enjoy! <<less

This novel was such an excellent read! All the characters were just amazing! I love their dynamics! They kept me so invested in the novel! There were parts that were hilarious! The MC was so refreshing although with a complicated past. The ML dotting on the MC and understanding the MC's train of thought, was quite intriguing. The MC was able to live a life that didn't have, and it did make him realize that his past life was empty. I loved how everything came together! The cases that were... more>> being investigated were so intriguing and the way they were solved you would never think the culprit was who they were! There was definitely that plot twist with the MC finding out who killed him!!

The translation was super awesome by the ExR group! I thoroughly enjoyed it as well as the extras, it was a fantastic read!! Would definitely recommend! Thank you for another awesome translation! <<less

Well written, and did not skimp on character build up. I will reread in the future when I miss Guan Jin and YunYang, and the whole special case gang. 🥰 Props to the author for including Jinghan and Seth's backstory. I wish there were more. 🥺😊 Thank you to Vivian of ExR who did a very good job on the translation. Much love! ❤

Tired of seeing the main characters being the only smart ones out of the whole cast? Incompetent subordinates/side characters? And authors who can't even bother to do some basic research!? Look no further, novel is definitely for you!
