This is a true story about strong women, although the gender of the protagonist has been blurred in the story! We just want to see the county magistrate solve the case and redress the injustice, and no longer worry about whether it is a male county magistrate or a female county magistrate. But precisely because of this, we can say that this is a true story of a strong woman! The protagonist is tenacious and intelligent, independent and self-reliant, upright and brave. He is completely free of gender stigma. He is not a tomboy, nor is he standing on the shoulders of men. Instead, he walks through the world as an upright person and contributes his share to that world! If you don't fall in love, you won't get tired of it. If you have a career, it deserves high marks. A hundred chapters, I hope it will continue in the future!
The story of True Case Solving does not waste a lot of time describing the appearance of the heroine or various men, nor does it have endless ambiguous scenes. It is all about solving cases, the cases are dense, and the quality is quite high, making it very enjoyable to watch.
I like the heroine and focus on her career. I like this book. Although the heroine is not of high status, she is very smart and powerful. She solves crimes with her friends and is not afraid of power. It is very refreshing to see the heroine constantly resisting the decadent family, saving the people, and restoring the integrity of the place. Praise
First of all, the three views are very positive, which makes people feel comfortable to watch. Secondly, the reversal of the case is quite interesting. The logic of the story is also online. Every character is very vivid. Some of the stories are very touching. Highly recommended!
It's so beautiful. It's the first time I've seen this type of movie. It's so exciting that it could be made into a TV series! The first novel I could read without finishing a chapter. Coming from the Cheng Dian case, the heroine has incorrect views and decides the case based on emotion, which is too ideal. We all know that the law is merciless and the victim's bad character is not the reason for being killed. The murderer has done good deeds and became a good official, so the heroine does not have to pay for his life. Victims do not need to be perfect. Judging cases based on this standard will extend to other places and there will be many hidden dangers. Everyone keeps focusing on the victim's fault, and there are many in real life. Isn't it true that when a girl is raped, she is not called QJ? I'm really speechless, and I really like reading this novel, but this case is so confusing and uncomfortable. My values cannot accept it. When a prince breaks the law, he is as guilty as the common people. He who kills must pay with his life. And if the judgment is made in public, it will serve as an example, and will it make the people think that good people will not have to pay for their lives in the future? Or just kill someone and do your best to make up for it? What use is the law then? The world is no longer in chaos.
There is no romance, but it is harmful to both friends and each other. There is a main plot that unfolds slowly through the chapters. There are a few chapters and a short story, not to mention the investigation techniques. Although it is not emphasized, it is full of humanity. Kind, beautiful, evil, twisted, jealous, perverted, well... There are perverted plots that I can't imagine. But the text is not very depressing. On the contrary, the author inadvertently adds lightness to it. This is an interesting book and worth reading.
It's wonderful. It's the first time I've seen a novel in which the heroine disguises herself as a man and becomes an official but it's not written around gender. It's a book full of human touch and joy. However, I personally feel that the last few dozen chapters where the puzzle is about to be solved are a little too fast. Many plots are mentioned in one stroke, which seems a bit out of the ordinary. Also, the role of the biggest gangster is too little (but the foreshadowing is in place), which made me a little unable to grasp the psychology of this person at the beginning. When I saw the ending, I felt a little disconnected, but there is no denying the excitement of this book! Whenever I thought there was someone behind the scenes, the progress of the plot began to overturn my idea. When the person behind the scenes was determined, the motivations of the people described by the author surprised me but were also reasonable. It was really amazing. I read more than a dozen books a day on my bookshelf to catch up on, and this is a novel that I can keep up with the plot even after reading it for a long time, because it leaves a deep impression on me. I wish the author to make a lot of money and continue to write wonderful novels. I will continue to support [got it]
The new book is here, looking forward to reading it! (No male protagonist, no CP!) Everyone's discussion on Cheng Dian's case, to put it simply, is whether the law is greater than emotion, or emotion is greater than law. The author was troubled when writing, because if Xu Wangshui was really killed, this remote small county would not be able to survive in this troubled world. But if he didn't kill him, Cheng Dian would have lost his life innocently, which would be unfair to Cheng Dian. The author describes Xu Wangshui, saying that he is only forty, and his temples are already gray. This indicates that he is mentally and physically exhausted and is undergoing inner torture all the time. He injured his foot when he went to the ground, probably due to dizziness, so Xu Wangshui's body could no longer hold on for much longer. Let Cheng Dian judge the case, first, let him seek justice for himself, second, let go of his obsession, and third, the county magistrate has selfish motives, just like Cheng Dianniang and Sister Song Yu, who are afraid of the suffering of the people. The last thing the county magistrate left was a prescription for external application to the sprained foot, and he left without checking for pulse diagnosis and treatment. The final ending will mention the circumstances of his early death, which is also the author's arrangement. I hope readers will not let this affect their mood of reading the book. (Actually, the author is very grateful to the readers for being more truthful, because in the readers' imagination, this world exists and the characters also exist. Therefore, they will be angry, entangled, sad, and resentful.) Finally, I love you~
No cp, strong female characters, crime solving, fetal transmigration + transmigration of books, growth, slightly supernatural, partial to group portraits. Focus on career, without any ambiguity or emotional lines, the plot is smooth and compact, the writing style is humorous and relaxed, the plot is interesting, ups and downs, the logic is good, the three views are good, the IQ of all the members is online, integrity and kindness are not holy, the characters are vivid and vivid, and the foreshadowing and reversal are handled naturally. There are flaws, but they don't affect the whole, and the ending is happy. Chu Ling successively met the ghost master, Bai Su and other ghosts, the kind-hearted and rich but cute master Wan Sanjin, the straight man Su He with a paralyzed face, the talented chef Xiaohua and the honest coachman Zhang Dong, part-time government thugs, and the horse chasing the wind. The like-minded monkeys began to solve the case in an eclectic way. As the plot continues to advance, they are also growing and becoming stronger. Chu Ling is kind and upright, smart and alert, bold and careful, cherishes life, has self-awareness, is tenacious and brave, independent and self-reliant, and cares about the people of the world. Her behavior in the world can make people ignore her gender. She does not stand on the shoulders of giants and has a sense of superiority as a modern person; nor does she rely on knowing the plot to be complacent, but she has an independent self.
It's so well written... It's obviously a lot of different cases, but they are connected very well. The main plot is slowly unfolding, and the solving of the case is step-by-step and well-founded. It's not like other books where nothing is mentioned. The protagonist suddenly knows everything with a sneer. This book is very interesting. People have the ability to think according to the plot, and the stories are also very touching. Several stories made me cry... And there are so many things I want to praise... Why is it so well written, and then I read the author carefully and found that I have also finished reading another book [laughing evilly] Hahahahaha, it's quite magical.
