It's well-written. Some things don't need to be analyzed too clearly and joked about in the text. Yes! I'm referring to the repeated jokes about the body parts of female colleagues in the story. Men might think this is a normal male perspective and a casual discussion, but as a woman, I just feel disgusted.
A rare gem among Tomato's period novels! The protagonist's upright values and lack of selfishness are particularly commendable. It's far superior to most other novels about courtyard houses. People in the 1960s were extremely polarized; good people were genuinely good, and bad people were genuinely bad. Overall, there were far more good people than bad.
A great book whose title doesn't do it justice. The protagonist has about 80% of Li Laifu's swagger, the book has a strong sense of the era, the use of superpowers is reasonable, the sharing of resources is both logical and satisfying, the plot is engaging and the logic is sound. There's even more to write about in the context of the public security front than about Li Laifu's railway police career. A high-quality period novel.
Wow, another excellent courtyard novel! Although a few characters aren't exactly likable, that's life for you. This is definitely one of my top five courtyard novels. Author, keep up the good work! Don't stop updating, don't abandon the story! Seeing that Du Ye might become the protagonist's brother-in-law makes me a little reluctant to continue watching.
It's a good read. The character interactions are witty and engaging, with plenty of humor, unlike many works that feel stiff when writing about interpersonal relationships. The characters are well-defined, and the cases are interesting, many based on real events. Overall, I really enjoyed it. The protagonist is both mischievous and reliable.
The characters are vivid and lifelike, displaying both patriotism and the warmth of family life, as well as selfless dedication. I love stories like this one, full of positive values and a strong sense of justice. Highly recommended! Author, keep up the good work, I'm looking forward to more updates!
Very good! Borrowing the background of "Full House of Love," it breaks away from the original plot, taking a different approach with a criminal investigation storyline. It portrays a protagonist living like a mischievous, idealistic devil in a turbulent era. The humility of the small characters is gone, replaced by the courage to sail against the tide of history.
Although the plot twists are a bit overpowered (a popular trope in crime-solving these days), I still found it incredibly enjoyable. Besides the author's smooth writing style and evident depth, and the engaging case sequences, what truly thrilled me was the author's portrayal of themes.
Excellent! A rare find among period dramas, this book flows smoothly and makes you want to keep reading. While the plot twists are a bit overpowered, they don't overshadow the main story. Very good, lively and interesting. Great!
Some parts are quite beautiful and interesting. However, some parts are a bit congested. Overall, it's pretty much the same; the courtyard houses are quite nice, considered among the best. The really nice ones, because they're considered sensitive, have all been sealed off long ago, haha. Well, to be honest, this book is quite well-written, but some parts just feel uncomfortable to read.
