I recommend this, a suspenseful crime novel, with more than ten chapters per case. It's super interesting, and the logic is very reasonable. It's not the kind of mindless novel. It's impossible to guess the identity of the murderer until the end. You need to be patient to read it, you will definitely not be able to put it down until the second chapter.

High-quality criminal investigation and strict logic in solving the case. The first three chapters of Dayong are recommended. Most of the cases in the three books can be prototyped in reality.
