fault lines and ghosts in the archives

This text has no male lead, no romance. The female lead is slightly timid in the first volume, a bit infatuated in the second, and from the third volume onwards... life seems like a Siberian Husky. Below is the sequence of volumes, if there are chapters missing, they're probably blocked. 1 Who's best at murder and dismemberment? Look in the suitcase for jackals and wolves. 2 I can handle tutoring, even rocks can be turned to gold. 3 Freshman military training brings tears, Changan loves to eat smoked sausage. 4 A thousand miles of predestined marriage hangs by a thread, whether it's good or bad all depends on fate. 5 My idol is the absolute best, the idol chose me to be their partner. 6 The boss behind the scenes is here, doing whatever they want without logic. 7 Ghost Festival inspiration comes late, helplessly put here. 8 Official advancement and wealth cost a child's life, a good son leaps like a carp over the dragon gate. 9 A trip to the plastic surgery clinic, all the fat is shaken off. 11 Who in the Human World can resist a beauty? Run out of roman numerals, use numbers instead. 11 Turtles may live long, but still dread the end, the characters fear a 404. 12 The local zombie looks handsome, cries out adorably when opening its mouth. 13 One dance captures the city, the beauty of the past fades away. There's a lot more, too tired to write the summary...

A single betrayal hurled Ethan Veil into death. What he thought was the end instead became the beginning—an unexpected step into the realm of Reapers, where he was forced to join a secretive organization known as the Nightmare Investigation Bureau.

Yet as the investigations deepen, he begins to uncover a terrifying truth: his greatest enemy is none other than the person closest to him.

Wu Yifan was once an ordinary security guard at a KTV in Beitian City, living a comfortable and laid-back life. Everything took a bizarre turn after a strange dream, though—when he woke, he made a 不可思议 discovery: an "Intelligent Enhancer" from the year 229 of the New Era had fused with his body. This device, developed by his descendant Wu Liang, a brilliant scientist, could enhance his attributes—agility, muscle strength, technical skill, and more—by consuming "enhancement points." These points, however, weren’t freely available; they had to be earned by completing random tasks assigned by the device. The core of these tasks was straightforward: "pursue outstanding partners and ensure healthy reproduction," all to prevent the Wu bloodline from dying out in the future. At first, Wu Yifan found this incredible experience hard to believe. The idea of a future device merging with his body and assigning such tasks seemed too fantastical. His doubt vanished, though, when he used the Enhancer for the first time. A young woman’s briefcase was stolen by motorcycle thieves, and in a rush of anger, he activated the device. He spent his enhancement points to triple his agility, chasing down the speeding motorcycle with inhuman speed. It was then that he finally accepted the device’s magic. Later, he grew used to living with it, having it transformed into a watch for easy carrying. As he tackled each task, Wu Yifan’s life changed dramatically. He was forced to make a bold confession to Ye Xiwen, the KTV’s owner. Teased though he was, he earned enhancement points. When dealing with unruly customers or gang retaliation, he boosted his muscle strength, showing off a "steel-like defense" that left enemies helpless. To help Ye Xiwen resolve a rent dispute, he negotiated with Wang Xuefei, president of Yingjie Group, and unexpectedly fended off extorting gangsters, winning her approval. Even a video of him chasing the thieves went viral, earning him the mysterious title "Running Emperor"—a secret he kept carefully. In the process, Wu Yifan got tangled in several emotional ties. Mu Xiaoyao, a 16-year-old, insisted on following him, admiring his "kung fu." Fu Junyao, a hot-tempered policewoman, clashed with him often but softened as she saw his abilities. Ye Xiwen, initially looking down on him, gradually trusted him and felt a subtle affection for this miracle-working security guard. With the Enhancer’s superpowers and his own shrewdness, Wu Yifan handled crises like fake alcohol poisoning frames and gang revenge. Quietly, he went from a laid-back guard to a hidden expert who could control situations. Amid the city’s bustle, his story continues. The future of his relationships with Ye Xiwen and others, and the untold secrets of the Enhancer, remain to unfold.

My grandfather was a tattoo artist, but he specialized in tattooing sinister designs. Tattooing, an ancient art, has flowed silently through the ages. In ancient times it was called "mo" (墨, ink), referred to in classical texts as "ni" (涅) - the process of embedding ink beneath the skin's surface with needles to create permanent patterns. For over 2,000 years in China, people have adorned their bodies with auspicious floral tattoos for blessings and spiritual protection. But there exists another kind of tattoo - one intertwined with the occult and dark arts. These are said to possess mysterious powers: warding off evil, changing fortunes, attracting wealth, enhancing romance, and ensuring safety. The world knows them as the Tattoos of Gods and Ghosts. Around these enigmatic yin-yang tattoos begins a thrilling tale brimming with vivid stories. What hidden secrets and forbidden knowledge lie concealed within? Where will these dark designs lead their bearers...
