As an undercover agent, Xie Li is sent to Fish Island Prison with the mission to get intel on Chang Guanshan, the leader of the biggest illegal organization in the coastal city, Hong Fang(Harbor city), through his son, Chang Xiaojia. It is rumored that Chang Xiaojia was imprisoned for an alleged involvement in the r*pe/mu*der of a female police officer. He has a strange and stubborn personality and is not as easy to approach as Xie Li initially imagined. However, at this moment, Chang Xiaojia starts showing an unusual interest in Xie Li’s body.... more>>

The main couple is Xie Li x Chang Xiaojia, with a plot that may potentially involve drama and intense scenes. There might be some plot twists and misunderstandings, with the background setting being fictional.

The inspiration for this story comes from “Line Walker 4,” borrowing some character concepts but not entirely derived from it. The characters’ personalities are different. Please refrain from associating real actors with the characters since the author does not have specific visual images while writing; they are simply drawn to the background setup.

The story is expected to be relatively short and it will have a happy ending. <<less

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the gaming industry has seen an explosion in popularity. One of the most popular games ever released is Mystery Maker, a VR RPG where players can create baffling puzzles in a virtual space and challenge other players to solve them.... more>>

As a promotional stunt for the game's upcoming sequel, eight real life great detectives have been hand chosen by Kurata Chikage, executive director of MegalodonSoft, to challenge each other to a match in a demo of Mystery Maker 2. Among them are Kamo Touma, a magazine contributor well known for his investigative work overturning false convictions, and his wife's cousin Ryuuzen Yuki, a recently debuted mystery novelist.

However, on the day of the demo event, the detectives are all drugged. When they awaken, they find their smartwatches are locked to their wrists and they are shown videos of their families and loved ones being held hostage. They are contacted by a Gamemaster, who tells them that if they wish to save themselves and their families, they must play a death game called "Delicious Death for Detectives".

As scheduled, the eight of them will play Mystery Maker 2's demo, and the Detectives will challenge the mu*der puzzles created by the mu*derer. If the Detectives are not able to reveal the mu*derer and their tricks before the time limit, all players will be killed. However, if the mu*derer is exposed, both they and their hostages will be killed. And if a Detective makes an accusation but gets even the tiniest detail wrong, they will be mu*dered by the Gamemaster's secret accomplice, the Executioner.

Now the only way for the eight detectives to survive is to expose the mu*derer and Executioner lurking among them, even if they must risk their lives and those of their compatriots to do so.

Which is an especially big problem for Kamo, because he's the one who's been chosen as the mu*derer! <<less

The investigation of a severed limbs case was stalled. Lu Junchi, captain of the Major Crimes Unit, went to the Chinese police academy to ask for advice. Captain Lu originally thought he would get the advice of a respected old professor. Unexpectedly, he met the sick and weak beauty, Su Hui, who gave him some advice.... more>>

Before the reasoning, Lu Junchi belatedly wondered if this Beauty Su was just a pretty face. After the actual evidence, Lu Junchi belatedly thought that this Beauty Su wasn’t a pretty face, he was the one who was silly and foolish.

Lu Junchi was grateful for Su Hui’s help in this case. He appreciated Su Hui’s talent but was afraid that the weak and sick Su Hui wouldn’t be able to live a convenient life. Therefore, he became a Daddy Long Legs uncle and sent warmth to Su Hui day and night. He sent and sent…

Later, he took the big beauty home.

Captain Lu didn’t know that this crippled beauty Su Hui, who had extremely poor eyesight, was deaf in one ear and could run 200 meters in three minutes, would turn out to be a criminal psychology profiling expert who scared criminals. He didn’t know that Su Hui had multiple identities or that he was an old acquaintance…

Su Hui was proficient in criminal psychology portraits and had extremely meticulous reasoning ability. He went deep into the hearts of the criminals to reveal their secrets. He had the courage to go into extreme danger and walked through a hail of bullets with no fear. His heart was like a rock as he fought against evil, like a reed that couldn’t be defeated. He looked so weak while actually being so tough.

No one knew that his world was actually a foggy mess on the verge of collapse. The surrounding liveliness was like a silent movie to him. This was until he met the person who helped him put everything together, retrieving his lost memories and finding the truth of everything to put him back on the road of life.

Su Hui: Do you know what ‘hope’ is in my dictionary?

Lu Junchi: ?

Su Hui: It is you. <<less

"Adel, as of today, I strip you of your position as the Seventh Prince! Never show your face in front of me again!"... more>>

This world, I thought, is filled with "unreasonableness."

The leader of an adventurer party who treats comrades like disposable pawns.
A corrupt lord who imposes tyranny on the people while indulging in steak himself.
A guild master who dismisses loyal comrades with a single word of salary theft.
A noble brat who discards his fiancée just because he found a new woman.

And... a shitty parent who banishes their own son just because he didn't inherit the desired ability.

The protagonist, Adel Vandale, wanted to eradicate such unfairness from this world.
Having been labeled as having an inferior job ability and expelled from the royal family, he himself had bitter experiences of having his position as the Seventh Prince stripped away.

Two years after being banished from the royal family, Adel operated a "Revenge Agency" to eliminate the unfairness rampant in the world.
He believed it would be a way to utilize the job ability bestowed upon him by the gods.

"Adel-sama, today's client has arrived."

Meya, a maid, announced, and yet another "client" visited Adel's revenge agency today.

"Executioner-sama! Please, please avenge me...!"

Upon hearing those words, Adel activated the job ability bestowed upon him by the gods, and a jet-black scythe appeared in his hand.

"Magic Scythe: Igarima."

Adel's ability that was once scorned as inferior.
It was an ability to grow stronger based on the opponent's misdeeds and harvest their job abilities.

"The execution coefficient is 7023 points... This guy is quite the bastard again."

Adel muttered, wielding the jet-black scythe in hand.

To execute one more unjust person who had spawned unfairness in this world today... <<less

The werewolf Sixx, born and raised in the wandering monster circus, receives an order from the ringmaster to meet a guest one night. The guest turns out to be Malone Cage, the underworld boss of the mafia organization that controls Portland. Sixx trembles in fear, but Malone, claiming he has no such hobby, rests himself against the transformed Sixx, who has turned into a wolf, and falls asleep.... more>>

Similar visits follow several times, and Sixx gradually begins to like Malone, who treats him as an equal. Meanwhile, within the circus, there’s talk of killing the ringmaster, who abuses and exploits the members, and escaping the circus. Sixx agrees with the plan, but conflicts arise at the thought of never seeing Malone again once they leave the city. However, fate ultimately comes knocking for Sixx, regardless of his desires. <<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?

It's simple.

She's...

I fell into the ultimate noir* BL novel.... more>>

I was also the obsessive maniac and villainess who fell in love with the boss of The Hundred Thousand and brutally died during the main characters’ first meeting!

I thought I’d change the love between the two, which originally ended with the death of my bias due to schemes, into a happy ending,

“Join me. To hell.”

What? I’ve been kidnapped by my favorite character.

‘You’re my bias.’

‘But this is too much.’

To survive a life-turning event that is similar to the novel, I tried to seduce my bias a little. Just to the point where he would be sad to kill me.

“Why do you like me so much?”

Yet something wasn’t right.

“Try running away Princess, if you can.”

“I’m blind about you right now, and I’m going crazy.”

The male lead’s boyfriend began to cling to me.

“Please, Yeonbyeol…”

“Don’t leave me alone…”

Too dangerous and dizzying, there’s no way to escape.

One day, gates opened, and the world descended into chaos. At the same time, Sa-yoon found himself face-to-face with a bizarre system window.... more>>

"You have been selected as humanity's 'evil.' (b ᵔ▽ᵔ)b"

Forced into the role of a villain and driven to the brink of insanity, Sa-yoon kidnaps Han Geon-joo, the key to escaping the damned system.

"...What's your objective?"

"Recruiting talent?"

"By kidnapping someone? What are you, some kind of gangster guild?"

The trait that could help him break free from the system: 'The Resister.' To activate it, Sa-yoon aims to raise Geon-joo to S-rank while maintaining a close relationship with him...

After lavishing Geon-joo with praise and nurturing him, just as he was on the cusp of reaching S-rank, he vanished without a trace. Eventually, he reappears before Sa-yoon as an S-rank hunter.

"F*ck, what the hell are you doing?"

"You think it's okay to discard people like old shoes?"

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
