The Spirit Mortician

The realms of yin and yang are separate, and life and death have their boundaries. Ye Fan inherits the Guining Hall from his ancestors, taking charge of funeral rites, and possesses the extraordinary ability to touch spirits. He can see the obsessions of the dead, hear the last words of the departed, and uncover all the deliberately concealed truths behind deaths. The most ruthless things in this world are not ghosts and spirits, but the unfathomable depths of human hearts. Broken family bonds, murders for fame and fortune, deaths by public opinion, silenced by capital... Countless cases are classified as accidents, natural causes, or coincidences, hastily filed away and sealed forever. Only the cold corpses retain the final truth. Adhering to the ancestral precept of not disturbing the karma of the living for five years, until a wronged female ghost clings to him and old cases are reopened. When the powerful manipulate right and wrong, when evil hides among humanity, when the dead can never speak again, Ye Fan abandons the rules and holds a solitary lantern. Using the lingering thoughts of the dead as clues and the laws of the human world as a blade, he pierces through layers of fog, breaks through the dark schemes of the powerful, speaks for the voiceless, clears the names of the wronged, and guards the last inch of justice in this world. — Description from novelcodex.org
