Reader comments
The only question is—when will you marry Little White Rabbit?
The storyline of this book is very exciting, and each case is full of suspense and surprises. The author Seiichiro Oyama is really amazing. His writing is concise and clear, but he made me completely immersed in the story. I particularly like the protagonist Miguchi Tokino, she is smart and calm, and can always find clues at critical moments. This book gave me a new understanding of mystery novels, and I recommend it to all my friends who like mystery!
Not bad [sending heart]
It's an absolute alibi 2, so to speak. The protagonists are the rookie policeman who we have never been able to figure out the truth and the watch shop owner who reveals the truth in one second. The case itself is quite good, but there are some far-fetched aspects, but it is not a flaw, and it is still recommended to read. [Thinking]
And the author also insists on repeatedly emphasizing the cuteness of the detective. After savoring it for a long time, I finally found out what made me impatient. It was not that the character was not likeable, but that the author's description of temperament was too rigid. He wanted to show that the detective was as cute and smart as a rabbit, but he could not let the readers feel it spontaneously, so every time he mentioned that the protagonist thought she was like a rabbit, it was too blunt, and it was not embarrassing to mention it too much. This is also reflected in other works of Sitting (if it doesn't work, let's give up, good reasoning is enough). [Grievance]
And in order to bring out the detective and his extraordinary intelligence, our NPC protagonist has never been able to figure out the truth. Every time he wants to reason alone, he can only ask for help and gain prestige that does not belong to him because of the help of others.
Also, some of the plots designed by the author are really easy to create stereotypes. These plots may be fine when placed in a TV series, but in a novel, they seem superfluous and too secondary. After all, this is not a hot-blooded comic, but a suspenseful mystery novel. Fortunately, this aspect will not be too prominent in other works. [Thinking]
Overall, I recommend reading it as a mystery novel. As long as you ignore some minor flaws, it can be considered a good detective story. [Think]
Even though the personality is a bit like a middle one, the reasoning is rigorous and the reversal is surprising!
The reasoning is perfect and getting better.
This book is beautiful (I am not good at writing, I can only say this)
Oyama Joichiro is indeed the god of mystery short stories
This is the first time I read this author's work. I'm not used to this kind of suspense technique and description. It always feels very relaxed and sometimes I can guess the technique. It's not bad.
I just finished the first book and now I'm reading the second one. It's still as good.
Oh, I finally watched the second part. The case is as exciting as ever, but the emotional line is so tender and slow. It is expected that the male and female protagonists will not be able to hold hands until the tenth part.
I just happened to watch the TV series adapted from the story in it, so I thought it would be okay to give it a good review~
