Those called crows, who find and assemble corpses.

Among those crows, Kang Dong-jae, the foremost crow, meets and receives teachings from the ghost of Jo Yang-seung, the former best martial artist under heaven.

Right from the beginning, he awakens a system and activates a beginner’s mission: Confess to a female within an hour?

The stronger and higher-ranking the woman he confesses to, the more insane the reward he’ll receive as a beginner bonus?!

Ling Tian: “Oh, nice! Not bad at all!” <<less

"Everything about my married life makes me sick. Whether it's the sticky feeling of the drug I put in my husband's milk every morning, the jammed crossbow I set on the upstairs stairs, the revolver under my pillow that turns out to be empty when I try to shoot the monster next to me, or the sudden malfunctioning gas igniter that explodes when I'm out grocery shopping while my husband is still asleep early in the morning..." Bai Wei sat quietly across from the counselor, picking at his fingers.... more>>

Counselor: "Wait, are you sure you're talking about your married life??"

Bai Wei: "Actually, my marriage was very normal. Everything started going wrong after my husband crawled back from the grave. He died a perfectly normal death once, just like everyone does."

Counselor: "... Did you cause your husband's death?"

Bai Wei (changing the subject): "I want to continue this marriage until life returns to normal. Otherwise, I won't be able to claim his death compensation as a spouse. Please provide me with psychological counseling so I can calmly face my married life."

Counselor: "..."

"Men change after marriage," a friend cried to Bai Wei. "He comes home from work, lies in bed scrolling through TikTok, doesn't play the piano, doesn't clean the backyard, he's like a moldy potato, a useless blob, an invader, an unrecyclable biological waste."

Bai Wei: "Yes. My marriage is the same. Before we got married, if he cut his finger, he would bleed. If he got hit by a car, he'd end up in the hospital. Drinking half a moldy coconut would send him to the ICU. Being pushed down the stairs would break half his leg. After our honeymoon, everything changed."

Friend: "?"

Bai Wei: "Yes, everything changed. Men before and after marriage are like two different species."

-----

I love my wife. After turning over a new leaf, I fell in love with him at first sight. He's gentle, caring, polite. When I was pushed down the stairs, when I crawled out of an explosion, when I got run over by a car in front of our garage, he was always there in the hospital, watching over my oxygen tube. So, whether in life or death, I will always be with him.

Managing a marriage is a learning process. I will not leave my wife. If he wants to go back to his parents' home, I'll cling to the car chassis and go with him. If he wants to be alone, I'll turn invisible and coil up in the sewer.

I'll hide my tent**les, curb my habit of attacking people, tuck away my five extra eyes, and be a regular car mechanic, a good husband, and build a perfect marriage, giving him enough sense of security.

This is the only thing I want to do in my peaceful remaining life. I think he knows he's my wife since he has never denied it.

Persistent Ghost Monster, Undead, Non-Human Top and (Kidnapped) Neurotic Born Anti-Social Ex-Villain Bottom

Upcoming: "He Said He Would Never Smile at Me Again!"

Chi Lanyi received a mysterious message. The message said that his boyfriend of four years, Gao Rong, was taking revenge on him. The two's careers were intertwined, inseparable. Gao Rong pampered Chi Lanyi so much that he didn't even know how to start his car without him, couldn't read maps, and didn't know which laundromat his clothes were at. Chi Lanyi knew how Gao Rong cruelly took revenge on his business rivals.

Chi Lanyi was very puzzled, probing day by day: how exactly was Gao Rong taking revenge on him?

---------

In a previous life, Chi Lanyi was extremely free-spirited, with nothing weighing him down. Gao Rong understood this better than anyone. With his genius, neurosis, fatal beauty, and tragic background, Chi Lanyi crashed into what should have been a normal trajectory of Gao Rong's life. Gao Rong was supposed to become a great entrepreneur or a successful politician, not what he is now. Fortunately, he was reborn. Gao Rong looked at Chi Lanyi, thinking he would ruin Chi Lanyi this lifetime, turning him into someone who couldn't live without him. Making himself the reins of Chi Lanyi. Chi Lanyi could no longer just tell him to get lost after an argument. After their fights, sitting on the ground, crying in self-pity, he'd remember that without Gao Rong, he wouldn't even know how to buy things online. The next day, when he went out for a banquet, he couldn't find his clothes.

Gao Rong watched him through the surveillance, waiting for Chi Lanyi to call him up, unable to bear it any longer. He climbed the stairs, smirking coldly.

Gao Rong knew he would definitely take revenge on Chi Lanyi. He would manage his company, take care of his daily needs, so that Chi Lanyi would never have to do anything besides art. He wouldn't even have to swipe his card for meals or book a table because Gao Rong would do it. He wouldn't have to wash clothes because Gao Rong would hire a professional team of maids and housekeepers. Without Gao Rong, he wouldn't even know what to wear or eat the next day, or what he was allergic to.

And Gao Rong, he would never smile at him again while balancing the books, writing checks, or sending clothes to the dry cleaner! <<less

10 billion people in the world traveled through the apocalypse to survive, but the protagonist directly turned into a zombie after crossing…... more>>

And with the passage of time, the body is gradually decaying.

For zombies: Rotten clean = dead.

So, Jiang Si’s time is running out…

In order to survive, he opened the novice gift bag and got the tr*sh skill, Ghoul: After eating alien creatures, you can get additional experience points. If the ingredients are fresh enough, there is a chance to get the biological skill.”

Um.

Really useless.

Alien creatures are full of poison, and the taste… is extremely unpalatable!

Then, the journey to eat the world began:

“Ding, you ate the Poison Horned Rabbit and gained 400 experience points, and your skills are fast.”

“Ding, you ate the Lion of Ice and Fire, gained 5800 experience points, and the skill Flame Body.”

When I woke up, the world had plunged into a zombie apocalypse. Normally, I’d be on track to become the strongest boss-level Zombie Overlord.... more>>

But something unexpected happened—a survival game called Doomsday Game descended on the world, bringing a group of survivors with it.

One reborn survivor, using their foreknowledge, plotted to steal my SSS-grade talent, Devour and Evolve, thinking it would make them unstoppable.

Their plan made sense, except they came too early and encountered me before I became a zombie.

As a result, I killed the reborn survivor instead. However, just as I was one step away from becoming the Zombie Overlord, the Doomsday Game labeled me a rulebreaker and kicked me back to square one.

Di Tian transmigrated into the body of the Holy Son of the Di family in the Divine Realm!... more>>

With a powerful background and noble lineage, everything in the world seemed within his grasp.

He thought he was starting with a golden hand, but to his shock, he discovered that he was a major villain!

On the day of his coming-of-age ceremony, he was confronted by the daughter of destiny whom he had once annulled an engagement with—and even worse, he had stolen her Supreme Bone. She had returned against all odds to challenge him!

To make matters worse, standing beside her was another son of destiny, acting like an obedient sycophant!

Di Tian felt a bit panicked. Right at the beginning, he was already facing two children of destiny!

Could it be that he had just transmigrated only to meet his end right away?

His research was easily deprived of him. In the end, he was expelled from the university because “he” stole it from his “professor”. Abandoned by his parents, he found a silly thread when he was in dire need of food for tomorrow.

In the winter of three years ago, the first locked room mu*der in Japanese history was committed.... more>>

All of the evidence pointed to the defendant. It was certain they were guilty. And yet, they were found innocent and released. Why? Because the crime scene was a perfect locked room no one from the police or the prosecutor's office could solve.

"Since the room was locked, it was impossible for the defendant to have committed the mu*der. It's no different than if they had a perfect alibi." That was the argument of the defense, and that was the argument the judge sided with.

The ruling sent a ripple throughout Japanese society. No matter how suspicious you were or how much evidence you left behind, as long as you managed to create a locked room that no one could solve, you were immune from prosecution. With the common anti-mystery fiction talking point "there's no reason anyone would ever actually commit a locked room mu*der" completely overturned, the rate of locked room mu*ders in Japan skyrocketed.

When the police proved unable to deal with the surge of locked room crime, the Ministry of Justice published an official categorization of all known locked room tricks as an investigative aid. When that proved insufficient, Division Zero of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, a police division dedicated solely to solving locked rooms, was created. When that still proved insufficient, locked room detectives, private investigators specializing in locked rooms, were officially licensed by the state and authorized to participate in police investigations. Calling a locked room appraiser, someone specializing in searching buildings for secret passages, is now a common first step in criminal investigations.

On the other side of the spectrum, locked room agents, assassins and crime planners specializing in locked room mu*ders, have become some of the most notorious criminals in Japanese history, and even a cult worshiping the scenes of locked rooms as a way to purify the souls of the deceased has made rapid inroads into Japan.

The protagonist, Kasumi Kuzushiro, is an introverted, somewhat cynical high school student who loves mysteries. Kasumi often finds himself dragged along on bizarre journeys by his flighty childhood friend, Yozuki Asahina. Due to their staggeringly bad luck, these trips often leave them in the wrong place at the wrong time to be caught up in locked room mysteries. Fortunately, another of Kasumi's childhood friends, Shitsuri Mitsumura, is the greatest locked room expert in the world, and can always discover the truth.

Hm? How did a high school girl become the greatest locked room expert in the world?

It's simple.

Yao Yao was born as a little glutton, her appetite rivaling half a mountain.... more>>

One day, the old Taoist who adopted her passed away in meditation. At just three and a half years old, Yao Yao had no choice but to pack her small bag and head down the mountain to find her senior master.

By chance, she ended up saving a wealthy tycoon from a car accident and became the adopted daughter of the prestigious Gu family.

At first, everyone in the Gu family opposed the idea.

The Gu family matriarch tapped her cane and said, “Raising someone else’s child? Careful not to end up with an ingrate!”

The Gu family head, Gu Xuesong, said indifferently, “Picked up halfway? Who knows what kind of trouble she might bring.”

From the eldest to the seventh brother, their response was unanimous: “We don’t want a sister!”

But this little girl, rejected by the entire family, proved herself after joining the Gu household.

She resolved the business partner issues that even Gu Xuesong couldn’t handle, bringing in so many contracts that they couldn’t sign them all.

She cured the Gu matriarch’s chronic leg pain, to the point where the old lady was now striding around effortlessly…

Even the seven Gu brothers, one after another, benefited greatly from her presence.

It was only then that the Gu family realized they had brought home a treasure.

From then on, the Gu family’s attitude completely changed.

The Gu matriarch: “Yao Yao, do you want some cream puffs? Grandma will buy them for you.”

Gu Xuesong: “Yao Yao, do you want a private jet? Daddy will have one sent over to take you for a ride.”

The Gu brothers: “Yao Yao, do you want…”

And so, Yao Yao secured herself a meal ticket—one of the highest quality! <<less

The newly crowned First Emperor of Qin, Ying Zheng, finds his ambitious plans for an eternal empire challenged by the appearance of the One That Escaped and its lists. As swordsmen and strategists alike scramble to claim a spot on the "Divine Sword List," the world is introduced to the enigmatic Martial God, a figure seemingly capable of wielding all the power the lists offer. However, while the world is focused on the Martial God, Zhao Wu, a seemingly lazy and hedonistic young man, is revealed to be at the heart of the changes, not only possessing several of the highest-ranked swords, but also a hidden connection to the Martial God.

As the lists continue to appear, revealing not only swords, but also military units, and even the potential for immortality, the world descends into a frenzy of ambition and conflict. Zhao Wu, surrounded by powerful allies and peerless beauties, finds himself unwillingly thrust into the center of this maelstrom. While others scheme for power and immortality, Zhao Wu is content with a life of leisure, but the world insists on changing around him.

From the halls of the Qin Imperial Court to the secret lairs of the Hundred Schools of Thought, the appearance of the lists ignites a firestorm of ambition, revealing hidden agendas and long-forgotten grudges. The world is forced to grapple with new realities and face the possibility that the old order is about to be completely overturned. Can Ying Zheng maintain his hold on power? Can Zhao Wu avoid the responsibility that the lists have thrust upon him? And what is the true nature of the One That Escaped, this force that can seemingly rewrite fate itself? <<less
