The Immortal Filing Cabinet [Book 2]

The Labour Audit

By: Fly Ylf

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Acting Director Hans Müller has a hearing to run, an investigation to build, and forty-seven complainants who trusted the Ministry to do something with their forms. He intends to do something with their forms. Book 2 of The Immortal Filing Cabinet follows the Ministry of Karmic Compliance through its largest case yet: a celestial labour hearing that expands from one sect to the entire cultivation world, an administrative identity that turns out not to be a person, and a financial architecture that has been quietly accumulating for twelve hundred years. Hans processes applications throughout. He does not consider this unusual. The Labour Audit is a bureaucratic satire about competence, accountability, and what happens when someone actually enforces the rules — told through compliance schedules, correctly filed forms, a ghost cat on the armrest, and one very old cup of tea.
