Reader comments
This is a very beautiful light mystery novel that can be read in half an afternoon. The length fits the story very well. If you use the metaphor of eating, you will be 70% full just right. When watching it for the first time, you can close the comment bubble and just enjoy it, because it is always difficult to avoid spoilers when everyone is excitedly discussing it.
The plots are closely connected and interlocking, and the foreshadowing is very good. In the large framework, the three stories are relatively independent, but at the same time there are connections in certain aspects such as location, time, and characters. This plays an important role in at least two aspects. One is to obtain clues from the previous story from the subsequent story, thereby inferring the ending of the story; the other is to use three stories with very similar endings to jointly construct the ending of the peaceful town, or the overall world view. The whole story is integrated, and readers can follow the clues leaked from the author's writing to discover the truth of the world step by step. In each short story, repeated textual clues and extremely important picture clues secretly connect the fragments of facts. However, under the deliberate concealment of the author, if some inconsistencies are automatically rationalized along the inertia of thinking, they will be teased by the narrative. However, the kind-hearted author finally puts all the conditions in front of the readers and waits to see if the readers can discover it. This moment starts from reading the chapter names of the book. The highly realistic pictures are really a highlight. The pictures at the end of each story already illustrate the ending or the truth.
The characters are rich and profound. The author describes the characters with ease, and a small action description can express the character's complex mood or personality traits while leaving foreshadowing. The behavioral logic of each character is very smooth. Behind their performance, it is easy to associate a type of people with similar backgrounds and experiences with the same personality traits.
The narrative is exquisite, the story slowly unfolds on several lines, the main case and the branch lines of personal experience are intertwined, and the right interjections deepen the completeness of the story and complete the transition of clues. The author is very good at writing about feelings, conveying the characters' feelings of being in a car accident, being hit hard, and being frightened in a very concrete way, which impressed me very much.
The two people who scare me the most are actually Yamauchi and Xiaoke in the second story. Regarding Xiaoke, after reading his experiences and thoughts, there are many children who explain themselves, and many people have had such experiences more or less, but even from the perspective of a bystander, they still can't help but feel very sorry for this child. Their gray faces in the second chapter took on a new look in the last chapter, and their joyful childish words did not bring relief to me, but only increased my fear and worry. In the tomorrow when they seemed to finally have hope, everything remained unchanged after all. If they had their own descendants, would it be a new cycle? The moment the spirit disappeared, did Ke hold its sleeve, or was it held by it?
I really like the design of the last mini-chapter, which is full of happiness in small town life, but behind it is a sad fate. One of my little thoughts is that if you put the narrative of this happy park corner like a group photo at the beginning of the whole book, and use the introduction of this place as an introduction, then when everything is gradually revealed, how will your heart be shocked. People always have unrealistic illusions about beautiful things. Maybe I am pessimistic. I feel that the complicated human nature and the brilliance of complex human nature in the book are not fundamentally different from reality. Maybe there is no such coincidental peaceful town in reality, but our escape, hypocrisy, resentment, regret, innocence and the simple and long-term happiness we expect are so similar to everyone in the book. There is actually a lot more to say, but for a book review, I think any more would be too redundant. Then again, just like books, no matter how complicated life is, it is also wonderful because of it.
After watching the ending, I found that this is really a very exciting story with many twists and turns. The author narrates the story in a fragmented manner, allowing us to figure out the cause-and-effect relationships in the plot. However, due to the lack of information from inconsistent perspectives, we can easily be misled.
It wasn't until we read all the connected stories that we understood the true hidden truth. The author's plot twists are very attractive, making people want to read it in one breath. And as the plot deepens, readers will have a sudden realization of "it turns out to be like this".
In the development of the plot, the author has also laid a lot of foreshadowings, and the titles of each chapter are also very meaningful. Overall, it is a wonderful short suspense novel with a twist on super high energy.
It's very exciting, the twists are really unexpected, and clues are given for readers to sort out their own logic. This is the first time I've read such a highly interactive mystery novel. But just like when I saw the ending of "Scream", I couldn't give it full stars. After watching it, I felt so depressed that I couldn't get my breath out. What about Kumajima and Mizumoto? The police officers who were truly righteous and worked hard to seek the truth were killed. The truth cannot be revealed, but the murderers live "peacefully" in this world. Cults kill people! ! ! Resist firmly! ! !
I read the whole book in one sitting, it was really exciting. But there is still one puzzling point. How did a child in Yamauchi kill the old woman and her nephew? And I don't even understand what's going on with the hole in Yamauchi's hand [what]
It is unspeakable and incomprehensible. The ominous atmosphere and hidden murderous intent permeate the entire book, making people always fearful for the protagonist in the book. This is a brain-burning mystery and suspense novel. The plot is extremely well-conceived and advanced layer by layer. The identity of the killer is always so unexpected. Three young men, MASA, NAO and HIRO, were involved in a hit-and-run accident. NAO beat Kunio Yasumi to the point of blindness and failed to save him, resulting in the death of the youngest son of Kunio Yasumi and his wife Yumiko. The cult of Ten Kings will try to develop Gongzi who has experienced the pain of losing his son. There are no absolutes in life, there is no absolute between good and evil, only love can resolve hatred.
So in the end, Takeri's letter was torn up by Kunio by mistake, and the last evidence of the town was gone. The peace here is actually based on the fact that the "murderers" Kunio, Yamauchi, and Takeri in the first three chapters have not been brought to justice. It is really sad. Summary: Cults kill people.
Not all the sins were brought to justice in the end. The white paper that appeared at the end shocked me. Too many innocent people died, mostly due to the selfishness of others. There was a lot of blank space, leaving a lot of room for readers to use their imagination. Most of them were to clear up the timeline of the previous story through the next story, and explain the endings of most people in the previous story.
Why isn't it a perfect ending in the end?
Maybe Shuiyuan's guess is right. The story actually tells us at the end that sin will be punished. Some people have a righteous heart but do illegal things. Some people wear righteous clothes but do evil things against their will.
He will be punished.
In order to let people who don't usually read experience the joy of reading, he wrote an interesting and unusual collection of mystery novels. The author Shusuke Michio put aside the writing ideas and techniques of traditional mystery novels and broke the rules. He not only gave readers some spoilers, but also implicitly hid the truth of the case. He expected readers to become detectives and solve the case on their own, driven by strong curiosity. The author reveals the truth in the photos at the end of the article, which really provides a very immersive and interesting reading experience. After reading this book, I believe you will experience the pleasure of reading.
A very short and concise book. Several short stories are related and relatively complete. The first article is the most amazing, the turning moment makes your heart beat wildly, the author is really a genius writer! The second part is more general, you can basically guess every stage, but the psychologically depressing atmosphere is well described. The third article is very well written. The moment when the little police officer's guess is close to the truth, it makes people feel as nervous as if they were suddenly caught. It is like throwing the truth directly to the readers from the side, but the readers can't do anything.
If I have any thoughts, that's not all. I just saw the ending, which is about to reveal everything but ends at the end. Maybe it is very good, just think that everything stops at this moment.
Even if this is a living person deceiving himself, it can't prevent the birth of doubts. What role does Zhuli play in these things? I am not smart, I can only see his identity as a bystander.
Water element...
It was Zhuli who killed him, how could such a coincidence happen?
But before the coffin is finalized, I will still choose to let this matter be like Schrödinger's cat in my mind, in a superimposed state of whether Zhuli is the murderer or not. I refuse to admit it and cannot be sure.
Just like I still don't know the whereabouts of Kumajima, but he did disappear, and since the car accident, he seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. No one explained his whereabouts, as if he had never appeared.
But here's the problem, there are still people who remember what happened before he disappeared, but no one mentions what happened afterward.
But the facts seem to be obvious... One of the three people returned to the police station, and it could no longer be someone else who had the accident, and since An Jian was still alive, it couldn't be him.
And what is the relationship between Zhuli and Zhiwei? I don't know.
All my doubts are buried in the ending, and I can't even express it in the book review. I don't know if it's because I'm tired or because I have too many doubts. It's probably both.
For a book that I once opened and then discarded, this score, this evaluation, is undoubtedly very good. How long ago did it go back? It was probably after February 15th when I saw the sunflowers.
However, the state of reading that book was very unstable at the time, and now I can barely stabilize my mood. However, as always, Sunflower left behind the emotion of condemning myself, and this book brought me the depression buried in my heart.
End——
Let me say a few more words that have nothing to do with the book.
It's really annoying that reading books and watching movies can squeeze out the interest in writing. The months are passing by so fast, and the number of works I read is also increasing, but my own works are stuck at a certain moment.
Even though they are still performing in my mind, they have never shown their style on the keyboard. I obviously feel the change, but facing them it is the same as before. The decayed pen tip cannot describe the scene in my mind.
It's a pity.
I hope that the immature pen still needs to be tempered.
Very sad story. In the story, Anmi's wife Yumiko finally put a blank piece of paper in when helping to write a letter, hoping that her husband could live a good life after atonement. The characters in the story are very vivid, and they will also make wrong decisions against their will for various reasons. The process is very tangled and painful. Even through words, I can feel that painful feeling. The only comfort is that Ma Ke, the little boy who was bullied in the story, finally made his own friends, felt the beauty of the world, and was full of hope for the future.
It's not so much a mystery novel as it is a social ghost story novel. There is always an imminent sense of ominousness permeating the book, and various coincidental arrangements, as well as the one-shot kill at the end, also push this sense of weirdness to a climax step by step. If the essence of ghost stories lies in the sudden stop before the unknown tide, the unsolved and unsolvable stories, then this book is undoubtedly qualified. In fact, reasoning by looking at pictures is not particularly new, and readers may not have the patience to guess, but a certain trick in the first chapter is just right, the spiritual atmosphere in the second chapter is like dreaming back to sunflowers, the third chapter is small and exquisite, and the fourth chapter throws a rather nasty and disgusting answer to the reader like a boomerang. Of course, behind this so-called solvability, there are still more incomprehensible things.
The language is fluent, and the plot and psychological description are very good. In particular, there are several Chinese characters among them, and their portrayal does not feel inconsistent. It's worth learning.
However, in order to reverse the situation, the author withheld a lot of key information. When I watched it, it felt a little deliberate.
When I finally saw the blank letter, my head exploded.
Under the peaceful town is the end where all the sins have not been cleared up.
It's worth watching even for the ending (T ^ T) The beginning seems really boring, and the reasoning part is also boring with plain water language, but the twist + suspense at the end is still very good, making people feel that no matter how boring the foreshadowing is, it's worth it : D
A short story worth reading. The four stories are related. The ending of each story has an aftertaste that requires you to think more. It still has an ending that is a little dark and a little warm, and Japanese writers are good at this. When I have time, I should re-read The Summer When the Sunflowers Don't Bloom
There are many foreshadowings, the plot has twists and turns, and every line of words seems to be creating a fog.
At the end, use the illustration to eliminate it. Carefully search for the illustration and think about it for a while.
There will be a feeling of enlightenment, clear eyes and ears. It's so wonderful.
I plan to buy a physical book and read it over and over again, looking forward to reading more "wonders"
"Different" can "self-appear"
It's true nb, you fooled me
"No, he didn't abandon it, but protected him. Protected the world he wanted to believe in. No, he tried to bring the world he hoped for closer to the real world."
As one of his rare independent series of works, this reasoning article still continues Michio's consistent intertwined writing style. A traffic accident involved everyone; the witness left a painting and mysteriously committed suicide, and the murderer was anonymously brought to justice. Just how many secrets this cliff, known as a suicide resort, has yet to be revealed. The world is what you believe it to be - that bow-thrown cliff where so many people died. But these are just facts that have long been obvious, waiting for readers to discover for themselves.
The characters' personalities and experiences are unique, and their behavior is very thought-provoking. Shusuke Michio is truly a talented writer. His writing style is unique and made me completely immersed in the story. I highly recommend this book, you will definitely not be able to put it down!
Generally speaking, some sentences may be translated because you have to read them several times before you can barely understand them.
It's worth watching. It's full of details. Every story has details.
It is still a good book. The logical reasoning is very good. The foreshadowing at the end can make readers have more imagination.
The logic is pretty good
Various reversals are great
It's pretty and interesting.
Very nice book
Blind guess who is behind the scenes: Kumajima or the Ten Kings Return of Life Society
Good people can die unjustly, and criminals can get away with their crimes. Nothing is off limits.
