This is a rare masterpiece of Chinese suspense. The story uses illusion as a guide to connect the rules of the world, human calculations and old cases. The writing style is calm and restrained, and the plot progresses layer by layer. It not only involves the competition between hand speed and eyesight, but also the thinking about human nature and rules. The rhythm is comfortable and it is very interesting to watch.
The folk illusion + suspense investigation is written very solidly, without being suspended or exaggerated. The story opens with the 1998 "Longmen Fantasy Opera" fire in Jiangcheng. The protagonist, Lu Yuan, witnessed the tragic death of his parents when he was young. He followed Wang Hai to hide in the city, practicing the illusion skills while tracing the truth of the year. The story integrates the settings of the Eight Outer Gates (theft gate, Gu gate, agency gate, etc.) Into real cases. Illusion is not a superpower, but a combination of techniques, mechanisms and psychological manipulation. The logic is online, the details are eye-catching, and the pace is relaxed and moderate. It is suitable for readers who like slow-burn suspense and a sense of the world.
It's okay. I've finished reading it. Come on, author [Chigua]
Emmm, the writing is good, I have the desire to follow it, come on author 👍
