GHOST DETECTIVE: Li Xiajun

TW: Bloodshed, Suicide, Trauma (Disclaimer: MC has no super powers other than being able to see ghosts, even if the cover may imply otherwise) ______________________ [Excerpt:] "Come out. I want to talk." It was a full minute before the ghost decided to walk through the wall and came to stand in the middle of the room, right over her death spot. She didn't say anything for the longest of whiles and Xiajun had started to worry that Zhaohui would return, so he decided to initiate conversation. "Your name is," Xiajun remembered from the file he had read, "Miss Zeng Suyin?" The ghost nodded and stared wide-eyed at Xiajun. "Y-you can see me?" Her voice was a hoarse whisper, one that suited the dead. Xiajun tried to hide the shiver that went down his spine. "I can. In fact, I may be the only one to do so. My confrere will be back any moment now, so we must get this done with. There are some questions I'd like to ask you," Xiajun said as he pulled a pad and a pen out of his pant pocket. Miss Suyin remained silent. "First of all," he said as he glanced over the ghost of the woman once, "who killed you?" ___________________________ Top Detective Li Xiajun has a secret.

A Table of Strangers

He awoke to the sound of someone beating down his door.

"Hold on, hold on a moment," he exclaimed as he adjusted his shirt and made his way to the door. Opening it, he snarled, "What are you doing, trying to break down the f*cking door? Haven't you ever heard of polite knocking? For goodness' sake. . ."

He opened the door and saw no one. Then someone pinched his pants and he looked down, realizing it was a short, old woman carrying a walking stick, which she had viciously poised in the air. 

Xiajun frowned, wondering where he had seen her before. Just having woken up, his mind was still a little hazy and he didn't quite remember, frankly, anything.

"Well, a very good morning to you, too," the old woman said icily. "What do you want for breakfast?"

"Breakfast. . .?"

"Yes, you twit, breakfast!" the woman exclaimed. "Hurry on, then. I haven't got all day to spare."
