In the dark world of an R-rated, depraved romantic fantasy.... more>>

I tried to flee the revolution and seek asylum, only to be betrayed by my fiancé who cheated on me with my cousin, landing in the worst prison.

“Newbie, aren’t you going to say hello?”

I ended up sharing a cell with two villainous male leads, of all places. How badly did they neglect human rights, to disregard gender separation in cells?

“Seems like you won’t last long anyway. Should I make it easy and end you now?”

They were unbearable lunatics. Please, just change my cell!

***

I was the weakest in the prison, frail and not yet awakened.

Human rights are a joke, 12 hours of forced labor, terrible meals, and the target of bullying by other prisoners… Add to that brutal survival games and death matches under the guise of training.

I merely used the male leads to survive, and now they cling annoyingly.

“Don’t touch other guys. Unless you want to die too.”

The foul-mouthed lunatic, Prisoner No. 1.

“I bet you look pretty when you cry.”

The deceptively innocent lunatic, Prisoner No. 2.

“Don’t forget that I own your body.”

A demon claiming I’m his only believer.

“I’ll treat you well, just like you want. Insanely well.”

A god whose kindness seems utterly mad.

Obsession… What’s That? I Just Wish Someone Would Help Me Escape.

Police officer, would you believe me if I say this is an Iyashikei game?

Translator's Summary:... more>>

Han Fei is a comedy actor who is down on luck.

Things seemed to be turning for the better when he was given an expensive gaming helmet to a virtual reality game called Perfect Life, a soothing iyashikei (slice-of-life) game that heals one's soul.

Little did he know what he thought was heaven was actually a hell filled with terrifying ghosts and vengeful spirits. <<less

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?

When Song Caitang woke up, she found herself in a coffin home surrounded by dead bodies.... more>>

A young maid squatted next to her, crying so hard that she was hiccupping. She complained that the local undertaker, the Wu family, was shameless for kidnapping Song Caitang for the sake of their idiot son, and even used their good relationship with the coffin home to trap both Song Caitang and her maid inside. If Song Caitang didn’t agree to the marriage, she would not be allowed to leave!

Out of habit from her occupation in her previous life, Song Caitang began to inspect the dead bodies.

“What a pity.”

“Exactly! Young Mistress is still young and the doctor said you’d definitely recover, so it’s not like you can’t get married in the future to someone better. Why should you suffer for the rest of your life from marrying an idiot!”

“I’m referring to the dead bodies here.”

Now they all seem to be true!"

"So ...... do I look familiar to you?" <<less

Many years later, facing the cover reporter of Time magazine, Yi Jiayi would recall the distant afternoon when the head of the serious crime unit took her to see the body...... more>>

At that moment, she heard the wails of the deceased, saw the face of the mu*derer, and gained the ability to mentally revisit the crime scene.

From then on, Hong Kong had one less civilian policewoman who spent her time gossiping over tea and dating after work, and gained a shining star in the police force who solved every case she encountered.

Head of Serious Crime Unit: How did you know he was the mu*derer!?

Yi Jiayi: Because it was a rainy night (omitting the reasoning process, 800 words), so there is only one truth...

The mu*derer trembled, his face turned pale, speechless, surrendered, and resigned himself to his fate.

Yi Jiayi thought: I'm sorry, all of the above was made up.

As the saying goes, explanation is just a cover-up, and a cover-up is just storytelling!

Solving a case is like solving a math problem; others derive conclusions based on known conditions.

She just knows the answer directly, and the process of solving the problem relies entirely on fabrication...

Acting, pretending to be a detective, deceiving the mu*derer... resorting to all sorts of extremes, it's really difficult!

...

Ming Pao Reporter: The police force in Hong Kong calls you "Female Zhuge", saying you are both intelligent and close to supernatural. What do you think, Officer Yi?

Yi Jiayi: Haha, I'm just an (extraordinary) ordinary person.

Reporter: It's said that your home was vandalized by two thugs, and even the Flying Tigers were mobilized.

Yi Jiayi: Haha, that's just the daily routine of righteous officers protecting ordinary citizens.

Hong Kong Daily Reporter: It's rumored that the sons of Hong Kong's wealthiest, the rising young stars, and... are all pursuing you? Which one do you prefer?

Yi Jiayi shivered at the thought of the wrath of the Jealous King, not daring to be careless. She sat up straight, facing the camera, and said firmly:

"It's all rumors! As a detective dedicated to the cause of justice, my only concern is to uncover the real culprit and ensure the safety of the citizens. I have no time for romantic affairs." <<less

[Blind (fake), flirtatious shou x restrained (real), criminal investigator gong].... more>>

Ying Wan was a blind person nobody wanted. He was picked up from an alley by Yu Baiqing, who was eight years older than him.

Adult Ying Wan became a blind bartender, while Yu Baiqing smoothly graduated from the police academy and joined Fan City’s criminal investigation team.

Seven years later, there was a major transnational case in Fan City.

With their backs to the wall, the criminal group seized Ying Wan as a hostage and demanded for the captain of the criminal investigation team, Yu Baiqing, to give up on capturing them.

Ying Wan could not see, so all he could hear was the sound of a bullet being loaded.

On that day, in front of Yu Baiqing, the bandit pointed the gun at Ying Wan and pressed the trigger.

–

When Ying Wan came to, he realized he was no longer blind.

He’d returned to the day he was held hostage.

Having regained his sight, Ying Wan recognized the handsome, tall criminal investigator amongst the mass of people in an instant.

That was his ge Yu Baiqing, who had raised him for more than ten years.

Yu Baiqing’s bloodshot eyes were locked unwaveringly on Ying Wan, who was in the hands of the bandit. Sweat and tears intermixed as they slid down his cheeks.

“Captain Yu, shoot me if you can!”

The criminal yelled arrogantly at Yu Baiqing in the distance. “Do you dare to use the lives of a few thousand people in exchange for your brother?”

The reborn Ying Wan watched with his own eyes as Yu Baiqing raised the gun in his hands and aimed it accurately at the bandit’s heart once more.

“…I’m sorry, Little Wan.”

He saw Yu Baiqing mouth ‘I. Love. You.’

–

Yu Baiqing always thought that the little blind person would never know, even till the day he died, that he’d liked him for many years.

‘We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.’

– Plato

Author’s Notes:

– This is a suspense, mystery novel with a Hong Kong-style of criminal investigation, but as a whole, it is impractical.

– Both are bigshots. Two sockpuppet spirits putting on a show about their birth (lit cigarette.jpg)

– There’s both the gong and shou’s POV, but more from the shou. Gong and shou are not related by blood, they call each other ge and di only because there is an age gap.

– 1V1, HE. Plot is complex but romance is sweet!! Please read with peace of mind~

– One last nagging statement – this is my own creative work, there is no relation to reality. Please don’t self-insert without any research. It’s a difficult environment, may readers please leave me with a way out, many thanks. <<less

Ian, who was a hitman, finishes his last mission and drives the knife across his neck.... more>>

[I’ve never seen the place where I woke up after I stopped breathing.]
Somewhere with strange people and endless dark forest.

One could occasionally hear crying at dawn.

As soon as he realized that he was in someone else’s body named ‘Ian’, the high gates were opened, and he met the owner of the mansion, who had blue blood on him; the color of the serpent.

“I’ve been worried a lot since you got back covered in blood.

It’s good to see you breathing fine.”

His hair disheveled and as dark as the night. Tall, dark skinned with slender eyes, the aura around him felt slightly dominant.

[Ah, he’s the man I had already killed.]

Ian realizes the moment he looks at his face,

He can’t think of his name or the reason why I killed him.

Chi Ning was a low-level Omega who was despised throughout the Federation, with pheromones so weak they were almost non-existent.... more>>

In the Chi family, the person is delicate, weak, worthless, and a small existence in their eyes.

Just when Chi Ning thought that he would be single for the rest of his life, the youngest general of the Federation proposed marriage to Chi’s family.

On the first night of their marriage, this pheromone top Alpha didn’t come home.

Chi Ning: Sure enough, I was disliked.

Chi Ning was depressed, thinking about how to maintain the relationship between husband and wife.

But when he woke up, he discovered that the top Alpha was being carried in. His handsome face was as pale as paper. When he looked at him, his fingertips trembled in fear, and he threw himself on him and cried.

Chu Shaochen: “…Don’t cry.”

Chi Ning’s beautiful eyes were watery: “Don’t die, I don’t want to be a widow.”

The beautiful Omega personally cared for the injured Alpha, even blowing on the medicine before it reached his mouth, and his eyes were as red as a rabbit’s every day.

The deputy general came to report to work every two days and was forced to stuff a mouthful of dog food.

“When I was injured, he was so worried that he couldn’t sleep well all night.”

“He’s still young, so I have to spend more time with him.”

Deputy General: Whoever wants to switch with me to do this reporting job, I would really appreciate it.

Chi Ning hid under the quilt, turned on the little rabbit light, and eagerly flipped through the novel. He’s been reading this series for a week. This series is extremely powerful. The low-level Omega changed his life against the odds. But then the quilt suddenly lifted. Chi Ning was startled, and the book flew out into Chu Shaochen’s hands.

Chu Shaochen raised his eyebrows: “How to conquer an abstinent Alpha?”

Chi Ning: “…”

Chi Ning pulled down the collar of his pajamas, “Hu, husband, my neck is itching. Could you look at it for me?” <<less

The criminal policeman Song Zhou, who was in charge of investigating the case, worked day and night, but he still couldn't hold back the great sleepiness and laid down at his desk to rest.

While half asleep and half awake, he received a call. The caller claimed to be Jiang Xiyan and was being hunted down. He hoped that the police would rescue him.

Song Zhou thought that someone had the same name, but he didn't expect that the place names mentioned by the other party were all the locations that had been demolished, and the time Jiang Xiyan mentioned was exactly three days before he was confirmed missing.

Regardless of whether it was a prank or a real occurrence, out of responsibility, Song Zhou still helped him out of trouble, but he was surprised to find that the evidence in his hand was also changing.

In other words, the other party might really be Jiang Xiyan, who died ten years ago.

—Yes, trust me, and trust yourself too.
