My Partner is Actually an NPC?

He Tiantian was riding an electric scooter at high speed when she collided with a vehicle driving in the wrong direction. She thought she was dead, but instead, she was transmigrated into a detecti...

Chapter 1 Yongping Hotel

He Tiantian struggled to sit up. She felt like she was about to fall apart. She should have known better than to speed on her electric scooter. Why did she have to show off?

It was pitch black all around, where were the police officers?

Am I already dead?!

Suddenly, a mechanical female voice came from beside me, "Congratulations! Welcome to the detective game."

Before the mechanical female voice could finish speaking, He Tiantian interrupted, "I refuse the game, I choose death, and I'll still be a hero 18 years from now!"

The mechanical female voice was visibly taken aback, but only for a moment, "There's no option to refuse the game. The game is about to begin, please prepare yourself~"

[Game Name: Yongping Hotel]

[Game Partner: Shen Yizhou]

[Friendly Reminder: Since your IQ is below 130, your assigned partner has an extremely high IQ. Please follow your partner's lead and ensure your safety!]

Players, get ready, the game is about to start!

As a beam of white light appeared, He Tiantian's surroundings transformed into the atmosphere of the Republican era.

"I'm so angry! How can they insult my intelligence like that? This is a personal attack!" He Tiantian was furious and helpless! It's just solving a case! Who's afraid of who! Bring it on!

Shen Yizhou looked at his partner beside him, who was waving his arms as if he was about to take off, and sighed helplessly.

"Let's go, don't act crazy in the middle of the street." After saying that, Shen Yizhou walked into the restaurant on his own.

He Tiantian then noticed a man standing next to her, who was quite handsome, with a fair and smooth face, dark and deep eyes, a high nose, and exquisitely shaped lips. He was practically her next boyfriend.

Shen Yizhou went to the front desk, booked two rooms, and gave He Tiantian a key.

He Tiantian then began to observe the surrounding facilities, which were undeniably retro and extremely opulent.

The two went up to the second floor, where two rooms were next to each other, 201 and 202. He Tiantian was very satisfied! This way, if she were in any danger, her partner could come to her aid at any time. No problem!

"Go back and rest for a bit. We'll go to the restaurant for dinner later. I'll come and call you." After saying that, Shen Yizhou opened his door and went inside.

Before He Tiantian could reply, Shen Yizhou had already closed the door and disappeared in a flash. She stood there stunned. How could this man be so rude?

But! It doesn't matter, I, He Tiantian, don't care anyway!

She quickly opened the room door, eagerly went inside, put down her luggage, and jumped onto the big bed.

Unfortunately, she didn't have a cell phone. He Tiantian was still immersed in the pain of not having a cell phone when there was a knock on the door.

Upon opening the door, they saw Shen Yizhou. "This is our mission. Other players will be arriving later. Take a look first," Shen Yizhou said before leaving.

He Tiantian was a little confused. How could this man appear and disappear without a trace?

She closed the door, opened the object in her hand, and found a newspaper.

The headline in the newspaper was about Zhang Liwen, a famous singer at Yongping Hotel, who was killed when a headlamp fell on her while she was singing on stage. The owner deliberately covered it up and brought in Liang Lili, a singer from a rival hotel, to replace Zhang Liwen. However, Liang Lili ran away after only two days.

He Tiantian immediately understood: their mission was to find out the cause of Zhang Liwen's death!

But shouldn't the falling headlight be a safety hazard? And why is Liang Lili running away?

He Tiantian got a general idea and didn't want to look any further. She was afraid that if she looked closely, she wouldn't be able to sleep at night, and she was already a bit timid!

Knock, knock, knock. The sound of knocking on the door rang out.

He Tiantian thought it must be Shen Yizhou calling her for dinner, so she quickly rolled off the bed and opened the door. When she opened the door, she saw a strange man.

"Um, may I ask who you are looking for?" He Tiantian looked at the man in front of her. He was wearing a simple long robe, the light silk fluttering in the wind, and the hem was embroidered with elegant bamboo leaf patterns. He looked exactly like a scholar from a family of scholars.

Tan Ziyang was stunned by the woman in front of him. She had a delicate and petite face, cherry lips and a fine nose, but her clothes were a bit peculiar.

"I'm sorry to have disturbed you. I was looking for my friend. I didn't realize I knocked on the wrong door. I'm really sorry." Tan Ziyang apologized and left.

He Tiantian didn't take it seriously, went out and closed the door, then knocked on Shen Yizhou's door, which he opened quickly.

"What's wrong?" Shen Yizhou frowned as he looked at He Tiantian.

"Um... I'm a little hungry, shall we go eat?" He Tiantian said somewhat shyly.

Shen Yizhou was silent for a moment, then nodded and left the room. "Is there anything you want to eat?" Shen Yizhou asked politely.

He Tiantian didn't know what people ate during this period, and she found it difficult to name the dishes. "There aren't any for now, but maybe there will be some later."

Shen Yizhou was speechless. Truly, hearing your words was like hearing a profound truth...

The two walked side by side into the restaurant, which was surprisingly lively. He Tiantian sat down at a table by the window and curiously looked around at everything. The people and things here gave her a great feeling.

"Here's the menu, gentlemen." The waiter came over, put down the menu, and left.

Shen Yizhou picked up the menu and handed it to He Tiantian, who took it and opened it eagerly.

I never thought I'd live to see food from the Republican era! I'm so incredibly lucky!! This shovel was totally worth it.

"How do I order food, Brother Zhou?" He Tiantian naturally wanted to humbly ask this older brother for advice on these things!

Shen Yizhou simply raised his hand, and a waiter came over.

"Gentlemen, what would you like to order?" the waiter asked respectfully.

"I'd like a serving of Shaoxing wine chicken! And candied yam! Stir-fried pork with chives! Brother Zhou, what do you want to eat? Hehe." He Tiantian smiled and handed the card to Shen Yizhou.

Shen Yizhou took the menu but didn't open it. "Add another serving of mixed eggs and two servings of rice."

"Okay, please wait a moment." The waiter refilled their tea and left.

While waiting for the food to be served, He Tiantian glanced at the couple next to her; they seemed to be arguing!

She quietly moved over there and heard the woman questioning the man.

[Woman: Where did you go last night?]

[Man: I didn't go anywhere, I was just chatting with friends at a restaurant.]

[Woman: You're lying! I heard Ah Yu and the others say you were hanging out with a singer.]

[Man: You just like listening to them, so don't listen to me. You won't believe anything I say.]

After the man finished speaking, the woman fell silent. He Tiantian looked at the man with disdain. So what if he's keeping a mistress?

Before long, the waiter started serving the dishes, and He Tiantian's eyes lit up when she saw them!

She picked up a piece of Shaoxing chicken, and the moment she took the first bite, she felt like she was on top of the world!

"It's so damn delicious, Brother Zhou, have a bite!" He Tiantian said, picking up a piece of meat and putting it in Shen Yizhou's bowl.

Shen Yizhou was somewhat at a loss; he was a bit of a germaphobe...

Seeing He Tiantian's mouth covered in oil from eating, he felt extremely uncomfortable and wanted to grab a tissue and smear it on her face.

Seeing He Tiantian's expectant look, he forced himself to eat the chicken despite his discomfort.
