Dangerous venus This book is actually similar in temperament to most of Keigo Higashino's works - they are more tender, have more reversals, and are difficult to predict. It can be regarded as inheriting the consistent style. I personally understand the title of the book - Dangerous Venus. This is probably because the author wants to express the sinister nature of the human heart. Venus is the essence of art. In order to pursue the artistic beauty of mathematics, Kenzo Kenzo did not hesitate to kill Sadako, and even kidnapped and blackmailed Akito, and was eventually detained by the police station. This was crazy and wrong from the start. Kenzo is smart, pitiful, but hateful. His fate deserves no sympathy. Again, conscience is more important than knowledge, and conscience is what should be respected the most, not just knowledge and talent. Let's encourage each other.
Mr. Teshima Kazuki suffered from a brain tumor, and Koji treated him while studying acquired savant syndrome. Later, he sensed God's will and drew "The Net of Forgiveness". Mr. Kenzo (uncle-in-law) wanted to get this painting after his father's death. One day, his mother's old house was discovered by her mother who was just waiting for something to happen. Because her mother said she wanted to destroy the painting and wanted to tell Shunzi, Kenzo and her mother fell down during an argument. Kenzo woke up first, and after thinking about it, he created the illusion that his mother had committed suicide. 'Ulam Spiral', addicted to mathematics, "Research Report on Acquired Scholar Syndrome" Kangji's research results were decisively abandoned after his father's death. One day, my wife "Kaede" who called herself Akito came to me and told me that Akito was missing and left a note asking her to help find him. Someone around him must have kidnapped him. I took Kaede to meet everyone in the Yagami family, and finally solved the case one by one. A photo: Sayo and her mother are high school friends. We went to the old house with Yongmo and the other three to search. Unexpectedly, a report appeared out of thin air in the place where we had searched before. The more I thought about it after leaving, the more wrong it became. When I returned, the house lights were on and unexpected people appeared (after all, I went to Aunt Shunzi's house tonight)... I didn't expect that since Feng is a policeman 👮🏻♀️, the CP of Brown and Feng
The first two-thirds of the entire book are well laid out: a complex and powerful family, a mysterious beauty who falls from the sky, a female assistant who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, the missing genius brother... One mystery after another is layered on top of each other. Plus, people can't wait to turn to the last page to reveal the mystery. But the mystery was not as exciting as expected. There was no shocking story, no unexpected twists, and no twists and turns of human nature. Qu, the male protagonist who is attracted by sex is also puzzling. The book incorporates theoretical knowledge of mathematics and medicine, so I also learned what the Ulam spiral is!
"Venus" represents love and desire, here it can be said to be desire. Once desire expands, unimaginable consequences will occur. In the book, Kenzo is a man blinded by desire. He has been searching for the "Web of Forgiveness", even at the expense of his sister. It can be said that he was full of extreme love for mathematics, but because of his love, he became jealous. He was afraid that Akito would solve the mystery of the Ulam spiral first, so he imprisoned Akito, thinking that what he did was perfect, but he didn't know that there were people outside the world. The dangerous Venus here is not only Kenzo, but also Yagami Koji and the Yagami family. Eager to leave his own footprints in this era, unknowingly, the family gradually declined. At the beginning, I thought it would be the same as "The Thirteen Steps of Disappearance". The protagonist Teshima is the murderer, and Kaede is infiltrating the police and cooperating with him to remember the truth. There are many twists and turns in the story, but I think many of them are written smoothly. Although unexpected, some places are not very reasonable. For example: Kaede said that she was Akito's wife, but she didn't prove anything. Why did the Yagami family accept it like this? Even halfway through the story, I didn't even get a clue, and it was only in the later stages that I went crazy. Sure enough, as "Feng Shen" said, what you see is what others want you to see
As expected of Keigo Higashino, the guiding foreshadowing completely misled me (lying) But it's not a bad feeling to be played around by everyone in suspense, but the emotional line is a bit too straightforward, maybe.
Another masterpiece by the famous Japanese writer Keigo Higashino. Keigo Higashino's suspense novels have always been famous for their very detailed foreshadowing, very hard-core and wonderful reversals, and their meticulous and rigorous reasoning that is watertight. This book is no exception. It can even be said to be a book that combines all the advantages of Keigo Higashino. I recommend it to everyone to read. It will definitely open your eyes and you will never regret it. This book is definitely good news for suspense lovers and can definitely satisfy the appetite of all suspense lovers.
This is a riveting novel that combines elements of suspense, romance, and psychological revelation. Using Venus as a symbol, this book explores the dark side of human nature and the power of desire, triggering readers to think deeply about human nature and emotions. This book attracts readers' attention with its wonderful suspense plot. The story is tight, gripping, and full of unexpected twists and surprises. The protagonists are caught up in a series of dangerous and mysterious events. They must face challenges and solve mysteries to gradually reveal the truth of the events. This suspenseful setting and compact narrative structure keep readers' attention and curiosity high.
Keigo Higashino, Japanese mystery novel writer. "The Devotion of Suspect Keigo Higashino started out with fresh and smooth campus reasoning in his early days. In his later years, Higashino's creations gradually broke through the framework of traditional reasoning. Many works such as "White Night Walk" and "Malevolence" have been sold well in various countries. Keigo Higashino's mystery novels reveal the misery caused by the one-sided promotion of instrumental rationality, as well as the unforgettable death anxiety of contemporary people living under the dominance of this instrumental rationality.
When I watched 50% of the movie, I still felt that the plot was not progressing, and it seemed that all it was talking about were irrelevant things. But gradually it was magical and the story unfolded. But the level of suspense and the overall feeling of the article are not as good as his other books. In short, I don't like Teshima very much, probably because he is too real and a little reckless (although there is no special description, it feels like this to me), and of course he is also smart and calm. It seems that Keigo Higashino is still very good at portraying characters!
The unique style of Keigo Higashino's novels describes a very charming female Kaede. The direction of the story is also reversed and self-justifying.
The unknown is always the most frightening. The description of each character is very specific. The first impression of Yongmo when he appeared was that he would be a villain, but it was just the opposite. Uncle Kensan was a kind old man who couldn't resist his desire and accidentally killed Zhenzi. Brown was a middle-aged man who had no interest in worldly affairs and was lustful. Yinshan was an assistant with high emotional intelligence. Kaede was a smart, capable and sexy police officer. Akito was a caring and smart younger brother.
It is a unique suspense novel that makes people not feel nervous or scared, but the story is told in an orderly manner and is very interesting.
Brown seems to have always been unable to let go of his father's death and his mother's remarriage. He also tried to contact his mother's remarriage partner, but gave up the idea after seeing the cruelty of the experiment. After he left the Yagami family, he had been studying and working abroad, and only his mother went back to mourn her for the first seven years. But this time his brother's wife found him and forced him to get in touch with the Yagami family again. After in-depth understanding and exploration, he discovered that he didn't understand his mother, let alone the Yagami family. The cause of his mother's death has always been a problem that his younger brother has struggled with. When he uncovered everything, he discovered that everything was closely related to the experiment developed by the Yagami family. The title of the book is very intriguing. Venus is the highest state of art, and it is also full of dangers when reaching heights. It seems to imply that Kangji's experiment discovered a part that humans dare not touch or transcend, and unexpected dangers may arise if they try. I always want to read Keigo Higashino's books eagerly. I always feel a sense of loss when the whole text is "finished", but this time it is a sense of relief. Brown's growth experience and nature of work are explained through alternating narratives of the past and present, and the reasons for the decline of the Yagami family and the truth of his mother's death are revealed. The ending of the story also means that their efforts have not been in vain.
The first two-thirds of the entire book are laid out very well: a complex and powerful family, a mysterious beauty who falls from the sky, a female assistant who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, a missing genius brother... Mysteries are layered one after another, making people eager to turn to the last page to reveal the mystery. However, the mystery is not as exciting as expected. There is no shocking story, no unexpected twists, no distortion of human nature, and the male protagonist's lust is also puzzling. The book incorporates theoretical knowledge of mathematics and medicine, so I also learned what the Ulam spiral is!
I particularly like the character of Teshima Hiromu, who grows up as he searches for the truth. This reminds me of a friend of mine who also kept working hard in the face of difficulties and finally found his own direction. Moreover, Keigo Higashino's portrayal of human nature is very delicate, which made me deeply aware of the complexity of human beings. As the book says, "Venus" may be in the heart of each of us. I highly recommend this book!
Different from previous works, as the story progresses, you can guess the identity of the policewoman and Akito's plan. The writing is crisp and clear, without being cryptic. I didn't imagine the complicated and bloody interests of a big family. It's also fascinating to read! The ending of the process is bright and joyful [eating melon]

Not as deep as other famous works hahaha
I still remember the first time I saw this book in a bookstore and I was attracted by its beautiful cover. After borrowing it home, I read it in just one day, in the summer when I just finished my high school entrance exam. Venus symbolizes the goddess of beauty in Roman mythology. This book probably refers to the Internet cafe of forgiveness. As an unexplored area of mankind, it is full of dangers. Keigo Higashino's books are as beautiful as ever, full of the charm of reversals and reasoning.
The plot is rich and the ending of the story is unexpected but reasonable. Add another sentence, Higashino Keigo is an LSP, but he is also a man [laughing evilly]
It's very suspenseful. It makes people want to watch it all in one breath without missing the details. . .
Higashino will not disappoint readers.
Keigo Higashino is still the same as always
Not simple and fast enough, but as attractive as ever, it's still good.
Read it on February 4, 2026. The first few chapters introduce the male protagonist's family background, and then the main plot leads to the case, layer by layer, and you can't guess until the end [Like]
Keigo Higashino's books are as beautiful as ever, with clear logic and a wonderful ending.
It's pretty good and the characters in it are quite reversal.
Rigorous structure, easy to understand, strong logic and fascinating
Everyone there has a unique personality
Not bad, worth a look.
