A pure mystery and crime-solving novel

On the Edge of Truth: Huangfu Cheng's Mystery Cases...

Huangfu Cheng is both a detective consultant and the moderator, under the name “Withered Leaf,” of the popular video account “Unsolved Case Club.”

He has attracted a large following by sharing analyses of unsolved cases and criminal psychology, while also using the power of the internet to gather case leads. But his life is thrown into turmoil when his older brother disappears.

He suspects his brother's disappearance is connected to a mysterious criminal think tank made up of high-IQ criminals who specialize in planning perfect crimes.

As he searches for his brother, Huangfu Cheng repeatedly pits his wits against the criminal think tank.

He investigates deeply as a detective while also rallying netizens through “Unsolved Case Club” to uncover the truth behind each case. Every encounter is a battle of intelligence and courage.

Huangfu Cheng's dual identity allows him to move between the light and the shadows. He is both a guardian of justice and a seeker of light in the fog.
