Synopsis: Longtuge was built during the Northern Song Dynasty and housed various books, artworks, and scrolls, resembling a modern-day library. The most renowned "curator" of Longtuge was Bao Zheng, the Direct Scholar of Longtuge and the magistrate of Kaifeng. This story, obviously fictional, revolves around a large family of mice and cats who unravel ancient unsolved cases within the collection of Longtuge, as well as unsolved cases brought in from various jurisdictions. While this ancient detective story retains most of the characters from the "Guxing" series, it is completely separate from the original storyline and has no connection whatsoever.
