“How dare they use their own kin to set a trap right beneath the imperial carriage, and plant a gang of loyalists to ensnare the nation...” This is what Wu Meng of the Song dynasty recounted from what he knew. In the real world, many greedy people lay all kinds of traps to pursue their own interests. They cover up crimes or frame others, even killing people and undermining social stability. Naturally, there are also people of principle who devise clever schemes and set bait, luring criminals into their traps to expose their crimes, punish them, and restore justice to society. This is the premise of “Setting the Trap”: a gripping account of the struggle between good and evil, inviting readers to savor the contest of wit and cunning as the traps are set and sprung.
The mystery novel Setting the Trap is 240,000 words long, with 60 chapters. The story is entirely fictional, and any resemblance to actual events is purely coincidental.
This book revolves around an ancient painting and a series of murder cases. The reasoning is meticulous and the characters' greed for financial gain is profoundly analyzed. However, the situation of the daughters of the manor owner Qian Gui and his wife has not been revealed. According to my thinking, their daughter should be the final protagonist behind the scenes. She will join hands with Gao Gao and others to carry out a series of investigations. In the end, the great revenge will be avenged.
Unexpected results, although a bit wordy 😜 Five stars
The plot is tight and dangerous, the logic is clear, and it is worth reading.
