Zhuo Yichen does not believe in mercy.
He believes in law.
On the night of the Lunar New Year, a sacred relic vanishes from the vaults of Dì Fǔ.
The thief is judged.
The case is closed.
The relic is marked as unrecovered.
Years pass.
Then irregularities begin.
A mortal life that should be ordinary draws anomalies like gravity.
Each time, Zhuo Yichen is dispatched.
Each time, the same person stands at the center.
Zhao Yuanzhou.
Yichen calls him Unscheduled.
An inconvenience.
A statistical error.
A problem he did not ask to inherit.
He insists it is professional oversight.
After all, a reaper does not guard the living.
A reaper does not linger where there is no scheduled death.
And a reaper certainly won't fall in love with the soul he is meant to claim.
But some protections distort fate.
And some souls were never meant to be hidden from the underworld.
