Well, the first few cases are indeed amazing, but the later ones are really too watery. The difficulty of short stories is probably that they require a lot of novel techniques, but the techniques are not that easy to come up with.
Finished reading
The memories of the kidnapping are pretty good, a bit tender, and the adoptive parents are pretty good.
Among the Japanese mystery novels I have read, this work is considered relatively sound. The tricks in the Museum of Tricks are only reflected in the crime and narrative techniques. There are no disgusting gimmicks and no pornographic jokes. I think it would be better if the story of the two protagonists is enriched. Now it feels like they are two tools (laughs)
Yuki Onna is really smart, and every story is well-conceived. She is worthy of Seiichiro Oyama.
I can only say that the second part is very average, average in all aspects. I like the first part very much, but the second part is far inferior to the first part in terms of plot, reshaping of the two protagonists, and writing style. The most important reasoning is not new because I have read many short stories by the author. The third part seems to be coming soon, I hope it won't disappoint me.
