    At first, I thought the female lead in the first book was a bit dull, but she became incredibly cute later on. She has autism but is super intelligent. She can mimic the emotions and feelings of normal people, even if she doesn't understand them herself. She gets into the police force through her own abilities. The male lead is somewhat like someone with a self-deceptive personality. He's super cool and intelligent on the outside, knows how to guide women, and can even brainwash himself. Hahaha! The second book has a very tight plot and fast pace. At first, I found it magical and interesting. Later, like me, someone a little timid, I was too afraid to read it at night. Plus, I love listening to audiobooks, which made it even more exciting. I highly recommend it!
