This is my first time starting a novel, so just read it for fun. Song Ming (courtesy name: Leng Yan): A brilliant forensic pathologist who has returned from overseas. He is cold and abstinent in appearance, meticulous, and suffers from severe cleanliness issues and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Qin Hao (nickname: Qin the Tiger / Qin the Unreliable): The police station's “ace” detective. He seems carefree and unserious. In bustling, chaotic Linjiang Wharf, the laid-back, unconventional detective Qin Hao crosses paths with Song Ming, a newly returned forensic pathologist whose exacting standards border on rigidity. From their first clash in the autopsy room, this mismatched duo are destined to stir up trouble amid one farcical incident after another.
In the case of a corpse found floating at the docks, Qin Hao uses his underworld connections to chase down a street vendor, while Song Ming frowns over toxicology reports in the lab. Yet they have to work together to piece the truth together. In the absurd farce of a wealthy family's theft case, one bluffs his way into getting answers while the other uses evidence to face-slap the culprits, until their squabbling turns the police station upside down.
From the glamorous mystery surrounding a nightclub singer's sudden death at the Paramount, to a series of locked-room murders at Yunwu Mountain Villa; from family secrets behind an old mansion's curse, to a mysterious organization implicated in a bank robbery, they learn to work together through their constant bickering and look out for each other in danger. With their utterly unreliable chemistry, they take on the “Netherworld Society” lurking in the city's shadows.
When science meets unconventional methods, and icy reserve collides with roguish charm, this laugh-filled crime-solving adventure has long since become a bond harder to unravel than any case. After all, there's nothing this pair of troublemakers can't handle. And if there is, they'll just have another argument.
The main plot is mainly plot, supplemented by emotion. It can be said that emotion accounts for 10%. The plot is logical and the ending of "To be continued" is good. Although there are some mistakes (for example, there were no mobile phones in the Republic of China, one chapter mentioned the screen of a mobile phone, it may also be a typo, and a flashlight was mentioned earlier), but it does not affect the reading. Overall it's good.
I still like the novels of the Republic of China very much. The storyline is very good and the emotional lines are not long-winded. They are just interspersed in it. The only shortcoming is that there are a lot of modern technologies in it, which is a bit dramatic.
Good looking, worth recommending
