"Sherlock Holmes of the Edo Period" Hanqi Detective Case Book; Edo Novel Version "Tang Dynasty Strange Stories"! Japanese version of "Song Ci's Notes on Rectification of Injustice"! Banchichi was a policeman in the Edo period who had handled countless bizarre cases in his life. Kitō Okamoto got to know Banchichi after being famous for a long time, and recorded the process of Hanchichi solving the case in detail, and compiled it into a novel for publication. Since the yamen of the Edo period would often prepare an incident book to record the beginning and end of the cases that the arresters were responsible for, people called this incident book the arrest account, so Kitou named the novel "Hanchichi arrest account". This book not only tells the story of various weird and bizarre cases handled by Hanchichi, but also portrays a detective who is very insightful and resourceful. It also vividly reproduces the world style of Japan's Edo period in a variety of expression techniques, which is deeply loved by future generations.
Reader comments
A very interesting novel, each short story forms a snapshot of an era. It is very useful to understand the history and customs of Japan. The cases handled by the Banqi police chief are very similar to our local criminal police in the 1980s. The strange cases that are not very exaggerated are all ordinary and simple.
It's very beautiful. I thought it would be impatient if it was too long, but I slowly started to watch it.
Behind the fantasy of the story is the combination of knowledge, history, culture, man-made and human nature
By the way, I learned about the ancient history and culture of Japan🇯🇵
