The Mediator of Strange Tales

Rules are something the living can discuss, but the dead must follow even more. Gu Damin, a neighborhood mediator from Chunfengli Subdistrict and a former A-level prospect of the Spiritual Security Bureau—on the day he was dismissed, he brought back an old booklet filled with "rules." He can see the rules of strange tales: when a sinkhole demands seven people, he exploits the loophole at dusk to save them; when a vengeful ghost demands justice, he makes the ghost sign an agreement with the human. Until the cold-faced female special agent Bai Lan comes knocking. She seals off his street, dismantles his stall, and presses a gun to his forehead, calling him a "charlatan running his own court." He smiles and slaps the agreement in front of her: "Tearing it up means breach of contract. Captain Bai, are you sure you want to tear up my rules in front of thirty-seven stall owners?" Later, she becomes his hardest case to mediate: if he can't control her, he can't control the strange tales of this city; if he controls her, he must first control those unspoken feelings of his own. — Description from novelcodex.org
