After graduation, Ling Chen caught the spring breeze of civil service exams and successfully secured a government position—working as an honorable… mortuary makeup artist at the XX Funeral Home.

One night during his shift, he was called in for an urgent job. A certain “VIP” needed a rushed funeral service, and the generous family handed over a five-figure red envelope.

This VIP is not ordinary person—bodyguards stood watch outside the memorial hall, a thorough body search was required at the entrance, all electronic devices had to be handed over, and a confidentiality agreement had to be signed.
Ling Chen thought, even in death, this guy sure knows how to make an entrance.

Just as his patience was wearing thin, he finally saw the person lying in the ice coffin.
It was none other than film emperor He Jinchao!

Ling Chen, a huge fan of He Jinchao, never imagined he’d one day personally “send off” his idol.

With a lip brush, he gently swept over the lifeless lips of the man in the coffin and murmured quietly,
“Is this what they mean by chasing your idol all the way to the crematorium?”

As soon as the words left his mouth, a haunting male voice suddenly spoke from behind him—
“Dear fan, this is my first time holding a fan meet at a funeral home too.”

    First of all, please fix the lump of text meshed together in some chapters that make the story really hard to read. Other than this formatting issue, the translation is top quality. FYI, don't get scared away by the formatting mess in the first chapter. I actually almost dropped the novel because of that. Persist and you'll be rewarded. I have been looking for a horror novel with good story telling, like My House of Horrors and Dreadful Radio Game. (Plague Doctor is just too confusing for me.) Midnight Bookstore definitely fits the bills. It's made up of many exceptionally good ghost stories. Pros:- A smart MC- A funny side kick friend- An interesting walking female corpse- A creepy Envoy of Hell kid- No homophobic undertone- So many curve balls and plot twists that you don't see coming (it really makes you doubt every character that appears)- Many of the ghost tales are in the gray area (there's no black and white, it's hard to tell who's right or wrong)Cons:- Will this novel ever get picked up from the trial read?!- How long do I have to wait?!- And oh yeah, please fix the formatting issue. Other thoughts:- MC's store is not a Midnight bookstore, more like a late night bookstore since it doesn't only open at midnight (in fact, it even opens during daytime)- MC is always thinking about sleeping with his wife (but not in a perverted way-ish?). But thanks to his side kick friend though, now he has a psychological issue he got to overcome before he can do that 🤣🤣🤣- The bone-chilling terrifying element isn't that prominent here. But that is offset by good-story telling. So, not a con per se. Overall: Definitely worth my time.

    Interesting system novel. The author gives plenty of information about the character’s stats so that you never need to feel lost or guess. The MC is likable and, as may be expected, wants to be the best. It’s a fun, easy read. Give it a try!

    This is an opinion based off of a small part of the story, so be sure to at least attempt reading before developing your own opinions;Honestly, I couldn’t bother with reading more than the first couple chapters, as I lost interest rather quickly. Everything, from characters to plot, seem incredibly bland. It feels flat, and rather lifeless. Maybe it’s just lack of experience writing, or maybe things are lost in translation, regardless this just wasn’t engaging enough to bother reading.The formatting being a mess was just icing on top of the cake.

    Despite all other unfavorable comments, I still love this book. To me, it's by far very interesting.Translation is fine and consistent. Expecting for more chapters.
