   Reader note

   Personally, I feel that the score of 7.6 Is a bit low. The protagonist in this book, Killing and Decisive, has a completely dark style. He kills millions of people without blinking an eye, which is completely in line with my understanding of Killing and Decisive. However, one thing I really dissatisfied with is why it is written as a cousin, and he has an unclear relationship with the cousin. Forget it, this does not affect my 5-star praise at all. As long as the author writes well and continues to maintain this style, it is indeed possible.
