Dragon Nation: The Buried Truth

[Mystery + deduction + mind-bending + fictional + one heroine + no System + no transmigration] Amid the neon lights and shadows of Longguo’s Magic City stands an unremarkable detective agency. Its owner, Wu Feng, is only twenty-three, yet he has already become an “urban legend” feared throughout eastern China. He wears his signature black long gown and a dark fedora. His eyes are as sharp as a scalpel, able to cut through the most convincing lies and disguises. With five times the learning ability and insight of an ordinary person, and senses so keen he can “smell” a lie, “hear” a heartbeat, and “taste” poison, Wu Feng is a devout believer in logic and truth. He solves cold cases that leave the police stumped, meticulously planned locked-room murders, and the sinister affairs wealthy and powerful people keep buried. From spotless luxury apartments to bustling alleys, from cold autopsy tables to music rooms filled with jazz, he navigates the dazzling, bizarre jungle of the modern city, using his extraordinary intellect to part the mists. Yet the detective hailed as the “modern Sherlock Holmes” carries a vast emptiness within him, one rooted in childhood: the truth about his parents’ divorce, and the father he has almost forgotten. As a series of seemingly unrelated but intricately connected, high-IQ crimes unfolds, an invisible hand seems to be testing his abilities and stirring the memories buried deep within him. The clues carefully “buried” in each case point not only to the truth behind the crimes, but also to the hidden past of his own family.
