Lin Xiaoman, the most miserable "soul-reaping assistant" in the Underworld, works 996 daily—reaping souls and writing 800-word "reincarnation applications" for ghosts. Even Meng Po (the lady who serves the soup of forgetfulness) complains her "spirit smells bitterer than the soup." Desperate to escape hellish overtime, she secretly searches for the "Underworld Resignation Manual" and accidentally binds with Chen Mo, a corporate slave who died from overwork in the mortal world. Chen’s last wish is rebellious: "Make my pie-selling boss experience 72 hours of non-stop overtime!" To qualify for resignation, Lin teams up with Chen to pull pranks: adding a "never-tired charm" to the boss’s coffee, hacking the attendance system to double his overtime, even exchanging his "merit points" for "overtime buffs"… But just as they’re about to succeed, the Underworld "Labor Inspection Team" arrives—tampering with mortal causality means exile to the "18th Layer Overtime Hell!" Lin must choose between "keeping her job" and "fighting for Chen’s justice," unaware that Chen’s wish hides the ultimate secret behind the Underworld’s "mandatory overtime" system…
