   The male protagonist is an artist with a crime-solving system. He's always either solving a case or on his way to solve one. He has a very close friend who's a policeman. This friend used to have a girlfriend, but because he's so busy, even having a proper meal together was a problem, so they broke up. So you can think of them both as single. Their daily lives are such that the moment they think about eating, they have to start solving a case; the moment they think about eating, they have to start solving a case again. The fact that they haven't starved to death is a testament to their resilience.

    No female lead (according to the author), the male lead is incredibly honest and not brainless, it's a satisfying read... I guess. The brotherhood is very pure, the male lead is capable, has strong morals, and gains power through his personal charm. It's just very angsty [almost crying][almost crying]. I finished it in 4 hours.

    One of the brothers is a boy from an ordinary family, but he strives to catch up with the protagonist and walks alongside him. He's incredibly hardworking and trusts the protagonist deeply (Xiao Han's character is so well-developed, and Sanfeng is amazing; I really like him). The other is a young master from a wealthy business family, possessing both strength and financial resources, as well as a keen business sense. The protagonist's group also includes a girl who is very strong. Although her personality is cold, her character development is not one-dimensional; she's arguably the second strongest fighter in the group after the protagonist. She's quite interesting and funny, a ruthless bandit but principled, and very satisfying. There's an unconventional system, so there's always a power-up. The protagonist's group is very likable, and their interactions with the protagonist are hilarious. The brothers are also very useful; they're not just background characters. They are all strong and funny, not ordinary clowns; each one is a prodigy with considerable strength.
