The plot of this book is really confusing! I felt like the protagonist in the book, being involved in one mysterious incident after another. Moreover, the book also mentioned "Mizuki-sama", which made me more interested in Japanese traditional culture. Just like the "Ichimoku Senbonzakura" mentioned in the book, every story is like a blooming cherry blossom, which is fascinating. I can't wait to see what happens next!
The key evidence is the cover-up set up by the murderer! The successive pseudo-answers in the decryption chapter are all of high quality, and the final twist is even more unexpected.
Although the advancement of the plot in the previous chapter is a bit slow, the overall shortcomings are not outweighed. I personally like it quite a lot.
This book is an award-winning work of the original reasoning award. It has a high degree of completion, a reasonable reasoning process, and a strong folkloric atmosphere. It is considered a rare masterpiece.
