I like the style of this novel very much. The case is a bit simple and has a sense of life. The criminal investigation team has a particularly tacit understanding and love. The ending is a bit rushed. It would be better if more was written...
It's pretty good. It's a detective novel. I like it. It's not wordy at all.
It's okay, you can read it in Shuhuang
It's worth watching. It has twists and turns and warmth. The protagonist and supporting characters are very vivid. There is a sense of human fireworks in the story. I personally think it is very interesting.
