Crime Investigation Stories with a Romance and Detailed Case Solving
I want to read books like *Veil the Clouds [Criminal Investigation]*. Are there any stories where both leads are criminal police officers, with a strong female lead and a strong male lead? The female lead shouldn’t be a doctor, forensic pathologist, or lawyer, and I don’t want fantasy or folk-supernatural elements with monsters and ghosts.
Suspense Novels
Looking for books similar to Carefree Supernatural Detective. Nothing tugs at the heart like mysteries. Please recommend mystery novels 📖

I think the female lead is reborn. In her previous life, she married the male lead, who was cold toward her, while she kept throwing herself at him and getting nowhere. She’s reborn in high school and decides to stay away from him. At the start, she sees him playing basketball and thinks she’s dreaming, so she runs right up and hugs him.

After finishing it, I suddenly realized that the female lead, Qianyu, really has bad luck in making friends; the two friends she made ended up wanting to kill her. 🌚
I absolutely love these kinds of books!!! While reading, I even had my own candidate for the murderer in mind, the immersion was so strong, and when I guessed correctly, there was a strange sense of accomplishment, it was amazing!!!
From a superstitious perspective, the female lead is a jinx, and everyone connected to her dies.
I finally finished watching it. The plot was quite good, but I have to say the male and female leads' professional ethics were questionable. Both of them committed major police taboos. The female lead actually told Ye Jiaojiao about the case earlier, and later the male lead told the female lead's uncle. Also, some plot points were illogical.
It looks great! The female lead only has two friends, and both of them want her dead. Unbelievable! 🤦
The case is very interesting and the mystery is intriguing. However, the character Ye Jiaojiao always makes me feel unsafe.
It's alright... The female lead's best friends are all deadly. Are they friends? The kind who'll kill you! Relatives and family? The kind who'll die tragically! And the murders keep happening... It just won't stop.
The plot is logically sound and tightly woven, making it a great read for someone like me who loves suspense novels.
I want to ask when the male and female leads get together 😂
The female lead is a good person, but her friends only care about themselves.
