After a lifetime as an overworked corporate drone, I decided my second chance at life in a fantasy world would be spent in peace and comfort.... more>>

Then came my fifteenth birthday.

The skill I received from the gods was... Brainwashing!?

“Alright, let’s brainwash some cute girls and build a harem!”

...Wait, no, no, no! If anyone finds out about this skill, I’m dead, aren’t I!?

And I can only brainwash one person at a time!?

Fine, if that’s the case, I’ve got no choice!

The first person I’ll brainwash... is myself! <<less

London, veiled in mist and secrets, harbors more than just crime—it breathes martial arts, concealed techniques, and masters of the hidden world. After a fatal plunge at Reichenbach Falls, Sherlock Holmes awakens in a London unlike any he has known—one where the very air hums with inner power, and even the Queen has touched immortality. Here, Holmes is not just a detective; he is a warrior, a seeker of truth in a city where fists speak louder than words and the blade is as telling as a clue.... more>>

In a world where Baritsu is more than just self-defense, where even mu*der leaves traces of sword qi and hidden energy, Holmes must navigate a tangled web of Murim clans, deadly assassins, and ancient vendettas—all while trying to unravel the mystery of his own existence.

The game is afoot once more, but this time, the rules have changed. <<less

"Isn't that nice? People are under so much pressure at work these days, but you can get away from it all, play the game, and live the life of your dreams."

"But I'm a famous ghost story game designer, I've conceived one hundred and twenty-six mu*der cases, portrayed dozens of mu*derers with different personalities, and to find material I've watched ninety-five thriller movies, more than four hundred horror comics, and collected more than two thousand urban weird tales. Now they all seem to be true!"

"To do something so terrible to a child… These people are despicable."

"Human experimentation related to psychic powers is an international crime, punishable by at least the death penalty. This is absolutely unacceptable."

"Don't worry anymore. From now on, you've got nothing to fear. We'll take care of everything for you, little sister!"

In 2002, Shen Qingye graduated from university and became a clerical officer at the Pingjiang City Criminal Investigation Division.... more>>

The job was leisurely, with a stable daily routine, making it the perfect choice for a laid-back life.

Until one day, by chance, she was brought to a mu*der scene.

After the on-site investigation, the police identified a suspect and were about to summon him when Shen Qingye suddenly heard a sharp, crying voice in her ear:

[The killer isn’t Lin Xiaofeng! It’s Li Dazhi! That scoundrel upstairs!]

Shen Qingye paused, her gaze slowly shifting to the seemingly honest and kind-looking man outside the door…

From that moment on—

Major cases like the Rainy Night Serial mu*ders, the Bloody Wedding, and the Husband-Killing Case were solved at an unprecedented pace.

Shen Qingye’s peaceful life was gone forever, replaced by the birth of a new legend in the police force.

·

Yue Lingchuan, the leader of the Major Case Unit Three, was known for his godlike investigative skills and held a formidable reputation in the police force. However, he was also known for his cold, unyielding demeanor and lack of warmth.

Until one day, during an assignment, someone saw him being gentle and patient with a young woman, showing her unusual care.

Everyone couldn’t help but wonder: What kind of person could earn his favor?

It wasn’t until the resolution of a major international case, when Shen Qingye stood on the award podium receiving the highest honor in the police force, radiant and heroic, that everyone realized she was no mere pretty face. She was an unparalleled legend in the police world.

·

At first, Yue Lingchuan scoffed at the rumors about their relationship:

“I’m just nurturing talent. What do you all know?”

But later, as the girl’s brilliance grew and more men began to cast admiring glances her way, Yue Lingchuan couldn’t help but darken his expression.

PS: Crime investigation, not horror.

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.

A killer who can create the perfect crime must also be the strongest ace detective.

Su Ming, who had just passed the police academy entrance exam, unexpectedly gained the ability to simulate crimes in his dreams.

Each time he simulated the perfect crime and no one discovered the mu*derer during the statute of limitations, he would gain various skills used in the crime.

After simulating the perfect crime 100,000 times, he acquired countless skills.

Su Ming, who should have become the number one criminal, instead joined the criminal investigation team after graduation.

To him, all cases seemed like child’s play, full of mistakes. Even the smallest detail or loophole could directly point to the criminal!

As he continued to solve what others considered perfect crimes and long-unsolved cases, the whole country began to call Su Ming the true ace detective.

Unable to wear even the first-class merit medal, his police rank soared five levels in a short time.

Become a criminal? Impossible!

It’s far easier to become a criminal investigator, solve cases, and achieve fame and success! <<less

In Meng Zhao’s eyes, his former highschool classmate Lu Shichen was like a skin wrapped in paper. He looked calm from a distance, but looked disgusting up close. Back then, everyone was after Lu Shichen, but Meng Zhao only felt that he was so fake that he aroused his disgust.... more>>

Meng Zhao didn’t expect that one day he would see Lu Shichen once again. What was more expected was that Lu Shichen had gotten himself involved in a mu*der case and became the primary suspect of the case. . . And the person responsible for solving the case happened to be Detective Meng Zhao.

Author: You two, please describe your views on each other.

Meng Zhao: A mad dog who is extremely good at pretending.

Dragged into the world of a tr*sh-tier light novel, I figured my new noble title would let me coast through life and dodge the tragic fate that originally awaited me. ... more>>

But as it turns out I was wrong.

Step by step, I’m being pushed toward a future I never asked for.

This is the tale of an utterly ordinary man who has no choice but to become a hero.

Sweet words from the author before you dive in:

1. The story is written entirely in first person, but the “I” will switch between characters as the plot demands (the author is on the verge of a split personality).

2. When the protagonist gets knocked around, please cut him some slack. He’s just a regular guy and can’t always pick the perfect option. His late-game self will look very different from his early-game self.

3. Early chapters revolve around campus life and character drama. Fights are scarce; this isn’t a grind-for-XP adventure. Think of it as a Japanese school gal-game wearing a Western-fantasy skin.

4. The manuscript has already passed the one-million-word mark. Doesn’t that prove the author is now a properly trained digital author? <<less

You hear the penny-dreadful tales, don't you? Souls whisked off to other worlds, landing in lives of ease and splendor. Reborn as young lords in grand manors, with enchanted baubles at their fingertips or a spectral mentor whispering secrets. ... more>>

But my own 'grand arrival'? No gentle angel to light the path. Instead, a repulsive, foul deity—some forgotten horror from a darker age—claimed me. I was tormented to the very edge of oblivion, then pitched into a twisted, gaslit world of shadows and fear.

I awoke in the frail body of an orphan girl, shivering in some rat-infested rookery, choked by smog and despair. Weak, plagued by illness, with a hunger that gnawed relentlessly. My new story didn't start from scratch; it began deep in the dregs, clawing my way up from less than nothing."

Now, all I fight for is to live, to see another grimy sunrise over these cobbled streets. Not just for my own skin, but for him—the one whose fate is tangled with mine, the one soul I cling to in this godforsaken, fog-drenched city. <<less

"Do you know what a psychopath is?"... more>>

"It’s a form of antisocial personality disorder, but it’s innate—hardwired from birth."

"Genetic anomalies cause lesions in the frontal lobe of the brain."

"The result? They lack the capacity for emotion, for empathy. No guilt, no remorse. Morality is a foreign concept to them."

"They’re masters of deception, skilled liars who can mimic human emotions flawlessly, blending into society without a trace."

"Now, here’s the real question: if such a monster were to suddenly gain a normal brain—if their missing pieces were somehow restored—would they become more dangerous, or would they finally resemble something human?"

In the shadows, a slender figure slowly crouched low, the glint of a silver blade catching the faint light. The edge pressed coldly against a throat.

"So," the voice was calm, almost clinical, "this is why you turned me into a woman?" <<less

Article 2: Famous Power Couple in the Industry Has Been Divorced for Years!

A big shot from a research institute in the apocalypse is reborn as a little village beauty in that era.... more>>

A few years later, the upper echelons of Kyoto's elite circles are shaken. The unruly and arrogant Crown Prince of the Gu family has actually taken a fancy to a village girl.

It is said that this village beauty is also the village bully, lazy, fierce, and uneducated, and her entire family is made up of oddballs!

How can a village girl be compared to the young ladies of the upper class? Everyone mocks Song Chu.

However…

Big shots in animal husbandry and planting; a magnate in the catering industry; the founder of an educational institution; the richest person in the country... one after another, they declare, "I owe all my success today to my Little Sister, Song Chu!"

Everyone is collectively dumbfounded: Really? We don't believe it!

But then, on the same day, the country's top biopharmaceutical research institute officially announces: "Congratulations to Dr. Song Chu for winning the International Pharmaceutical Gold Award, and thank you to Dr. Song for leading us to become the world's most advanced pharmaceutical organization."

This is immediately followed by an article lavishly praising her, along with a photo of her holding the trophy.

Looking at the fair-skinned, beautiful, and exceptionally elegant Dr. Song, everyone's jaws drop. What happened to the rustic and uneducated village girl? This is clearly a beautiful, cool, and talented winner in life…

At the same time, the Crown Prince of the Gu family, who is also a tech giant, approaches Song Chu: "How about taking responsibility for me first..."

✿✿✿

In a world ravaged by the apocalypse, Song Chu, a brilliant but solitary biologist, met an untimely end. However, her story didn't end there. She awakens in 1975, in the body of a notorious village bully in rural China, a woman with the same name but a vastly different reputation. This Song Chu is known for her laziness, fierce temper, and a hopeless infatuation with the handsome educated youth, Gu Yue.

Adding to the bizarre situation, Song Chu discovers that her state-of-the-art laboratory from the apocalypse has inexplicably followed her, split in half, with the other half now residing within Gu Yue's mind. To regain her full laboratory and understand this strange phenomenon, she must cooperate with the very man her host body once harassed.

As Song Chu navigates this new reality, she decides to use her knowledge and skills from the future to improve the lives of her newfound family and the impoverished village. She sets her sights on revolutionizing the village's agricultural practices, starting with an oil pressing workshop and dreaming of larger ventures like a chicken farm and food processing factory. Along the way, she confronts her host body's past misdeeds, reforms her troublemaking brothers, and deals with the jealous schemes of her former best friend.

Amidst her ambitious plans, Song Chu finds herself drawn to the intellectual and enigmatic Gu Yue. Their forced partnership blossoms into a complex relationship as they work together, sharing knowledge and challenging each other's perspectives. As Song Chu strives to uplift her village and secure a brighter future, she must also navigate the delicate balance between her growing connection with Gu Yue and her desire to remain independent. <<less
