    In male-oriented novels, aside from a few supporting characters with minor romantic subplots, most have no romantic pairings. Especially the one with the crime records; the protagonists are purely comrades, there's no office romance, and it avoids the common male-oriented forensic pathologist trope of portraying a highly educated, aloof, and arrogant forensic doctor who's obsessed with the male lead. Everything is perfectly normal! The sixth book, about the senior brother, has a few of the common male-oriented novel tropes in the early stages, but don't worry! The male lead has no romantic feelings for her! He remains single until his death!

    Reader note

    Here's a brief list of some of the earlier ones from my summer vacation: 1. Bug-busting masterpiece, pretty good. 2. I started reading this out of boredom, but it got more and more addictive. Even if you're unfamiliar with Resident Evil, it's still very enjoyable to read. It's about mass production and leveling up, plus some regrets from watching Resident Evil. 3. Reborn to seize opportunities and forge your own path, it's still very satisfying to watch the protagonist expand and level up step by step. 4. One of my favorite books in the early stages. It involves bribing a small person, then contacting various characters to achieve the conditions and rise step by step. 5. I won't say much about God of Wealth. I read the book first and then watched the anime. 6. YY DS. 7. It focuses on making subordinates compete. 8. A story about the growth of a lord's vassal. It's quite interesting to read slowly. 9. The boss is super good. 10. I read it a long time ago and have almost forgotten the plot. In summary, they are all without any flaws and are very consistent with the synopsis. You can also check my uncle's house. I've grouped them up.
