It's a doomsday setting, and disorder and chaos seem to be natural. It's a doomsday setting, but I haven't given up on humanity yet... It's really idealistic
The mystery is very high, and the foreshadowing is well recycled, but the answer is very ordinary.
Personally, I feel that although this book is an award-winning work, it is still far behind the top mystery novels.
Hope in despair, the final appearance of human beings is still terrible.
It's a pretty delicate story
But for murderers, I think one should give one's life for one's life
