Strange Travel Detective

The younger brother of the protagonist Chu Jing died mysteriously in a studio with locked doors and windows in London, England. The death was in a strange way, with twisted hands and feet and a strange smile on his face. The London police determined that the death was suicide, but Chu Jing believed that his brother would never commit suicide. A recently published novel attracted the attention of the protagonist: he was surprised to find that the murder scene described in this novel was exactly the same as the death scene of his younger brother, but the author of this book was a writer from a small mountain village in Hunan. In order to find out the truth of the case, the protagonist embarked on a thousand-mile investigation journey in London, Hunan mountain villages, Wuhan, Yangzhou, and Shanghai. This novel and its characters are purely fictitious. Any similarity is purely coincidental and should not be imitated.
