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.

An Accomplice

Alexander's features froze at the mention of the Black Phantoms.

"H-How do you know that?" he asked cautiously, trying to act calm.

Xiajun widened his eyes in surprise. "Wait, so you already knew?"

Alexander shrugged, avoiding eye contact. "Yes. . . No. . . Well, it's complicated."

"I have time."

Alexander inhaled deeply on his cigarette, as if preparing himself. The room stank of smoke and expensive cologne. The clock on the wall ticked ominously in the background as Alexander found himself hesitating.

"I named my son Leonard because I thought he would grow up to be a reliable young man with a strong sense of righteousness. We had such high hopes. . ." He paused, inhaling on his cigarette. ". . .An expensive private school, a good nanny, a sports instructor. . . I did everything I could so he could fulfill mine and my wife's dreams, but none of us were ready for how things really turned out."
