Name: The Yellow River Rises Daily
Author: Lu Jingyi

Synopsis

One afternoon, Zhang Yindui returned home to pick something up and caught his sister-in-law, Li Qiaoyun, having an affair with Gu Chengshan, the village butcher. In a fit of rage, he killed his sister-in-law’s lover, Gu Chengsan. After Gu Chengsan’s murder, his thirteen-year-old daughter, Gu Qiaoqiao, suddenly disappeared. As the police searched for the killer and for Gu Qiaoqiao, they found a red sneaker on the banks of the Yellow River. The New District Public Security Bureau issued Yellow River Salvage Order No. 10. Two boats searched along both banks and pulled a woman’s body from the water at Laomowan. But it wasn’t Gu Qiaoqiao. It was Lou Xiaoxia, director of the Urban Development Bureau, who had been missing for half a month.

After leaving the military, Zhang Jindui became a driver for the county Urban Development Bureau. He knew his wife, Li Qiaoyun, was seeing someone else and decided to divorce her. But because of their child, they kept putting it off. His younger brother, Zhang Yindui, had been making a success of himself away from home. He managed fish ponds, sold building materials, and opened a well-known floating restaurant on the Yellow River: Jiqing Floating Restaurant. Through business, he had made many connections, and both local merchants and government officials were regular customers. The driver fell in love with his boss, the director, a woman as radiant as a flower. Zhang Jindui, who had once been weary of life, suddenly came alive again and found a reason to keep going.

Deng Changming, head of the Yu Bei branch of the New District Public Security Bureau, was a seasoned investigator. He paced along the embankment between the new and old Yellow River bridges, keeping an eye on Jiqing Floating Restaurant. A single red sneaker led him to connect the two cases. Piece by piece, he closed in on the truth. When the police surrounded Jiqing Floating Restaurant, ready to take Zhang Yindui away, his usually timid brother rushed forward without hesitation, shielding him and shouting, “I killed him. He had nothing to do with it.”

The writing is so thrilling and so wow!! A murder case involves the struggles and complex entanglements of human nature, and the plots are intertwined. You can't stop reading it! It's so pretty\(`Δ')/ Just a little suggestion. That paragraph is too long. You can try to make it shorter. Some readers don't like long paragraphs very much. You can tell from my reading time that I have read a lot of books. Many people don't like to read long paragraphs₍˄·͈༝·͈˄*₎◞ ̑̑

The novel begins with a sudden murder case, linking up the love-hate entanglement on the Yellow River beach and the undercurrent of urban and rural changes. The police chief peeled off the cocoon, and the case involved a complex network of workplace, emotions and interests. The story is close to the hometown, the suspense is advanced layer by layer, and the light and darkness of human nature and the echo of the times are illuminated in the sound of the surging Yellow River. It is a realistic masterpiece full of fireworks. Like 👍 👍 👍 👍

The text of "Sunrise on the Yellow River" has the unique roughness and freshness of the Yellow River floodplain area. Under the shell of suspenseful reasoning, there is the world situation and human heart of this land and water. The entanglement of love and the struggle of desire are all written in a solid and touching way in the roar of the Yellow River. The author uses a very pyrotechnic writing style to give the fictional story the weight of reality. When reading, it feels like witnessing the various forms of life on that land. 👍👍👍

The writing is really good. At first glance, it looks like the writing style of masters, such as Zhang Duiyin, Li Yuhong, and various so-called entrepreneurs and leaders. The descriptions are based on a deep understanding of the times and life. The story is full of tension and unforgettable! The murderers and the murdered are just a speck of dust under the torrent of the times. They are at a loss and unable to control their own destiny. Seemingly a winner may not necessarily lead a good life... I hope that I can see the author's works in various places in the future. I will take a look at the next work and send my heart [sending my heart] [sending my heart] [sending my heart] to the author. I wish the author a great new book in the Year of the Horse!
