    The first novel features a very obsessive female lead who is also the villain's daughter. She's incredibly charming, and her intelligence is on point. The second book is also really great; the female lead has many secrets, and the male lead is also fantastic. The fourth book is one I always pick up when I have nothing else to read. It's a fanfic about Gu Sen and Qin Zisang. The author wrote three novels in total, and this is one of them (the Police Academy Trilogy).

    I can't believe you haven't read this amazing novel, [Sparrow's Masterpiece]! The female lead is a police officer, and she and the male lead become partners later on. (The story focuses on solving crimes, with romance as a secondary element.) The author's writing is exceptional; the cases are fast-paced, and all the foreshadowing from the beginning is resolved. The plot unfolds seamlessly, with each element building upon the last, creating a very complete storyline. [Already hooked][Added to bookshelf] (Crime solving, time travel, system [I've learned something new]) Looking forward to the author's new work! [Heart]

    The book I'm looking for is also a detective story. It starts with the female lead's friend being murdered after taking her home. Later, the female lead's mother is murdered because of perfume. The female lead then becomes a forensic pathologist and solves cases with the male lead. That's all I remember about the book; I don't remember anything else.
