He is worthy of being a master of his generation. It focuses on the psychological aspect to show the game between the detective and the prisoner as well as the prisoner's self-game. The angle is new and worth reading.

The psychological test was quite powerful. I guessed the real murderer based on my reaction and association. It's a pity that it's not perfect. There are no witnesses or physical evidence. It's just that the suspect's psychological defense has been broken.
