    The first book, already finished. It's a fake system story. The protagonist goes undercover and returns to join the police force, solving cases and finding love. The pacing is tight, with foreshadowing. He completes his final undercover mission in the later stages. I feel this novel would be a hit if adapted into a TV series. It has everything: undercover work, romance, human nature, and real-life retribution. The protagonist is also very well-developed. The second book, currently reading, is about a forensic doctor with a criminal gene who pursues justice, light, and truth. The cases are tightly linked, one after another. The characters, their hearts, and human nature are portrayed very realistically. I feel it could be adapted into a TV series. The third book features frequent cases, a tight pace, and a protagonist with a system (not invincible). It's very good, similar to a detective story, but the cases are bizarre yet have a beginning and an end. There's no supernatural element; everything revolves around human nature and the human heart. It's excellent and exciting. The fourth book, highly recommended, is great. It has no system. The protagonist's cheat ability is experiencing 100,000 perfect crimes before joining the police force. He solves cases from the criminal's psychological perspective, showing us that there is no perfect crime.

    🌟This book is hilarious! All the cases are solved in bizarre ways by the male lead. For example: 🉑He goes to buy lottery tickets, encounters a pickpocket, and, not winning, yells, causing the pickpocket to stay and watch, only to be caught. 🉑He plans to buy rock candy to make candied hawthorns and sets up a stall, buys online, and the first thing he asks is, "Is it pure?", Which leads to the raid on a drug den. 🉑He goes to the city's criminal investigation team to collect money, wears a mask, gets on the wrong bus, and ends up robbing a bank, handling AKs and bombs like crazy, becoming incredibly experienced. In short, the male lead is a veritable magnet for crime.🌟🌟This crime-solving novel without a romantic pairing is pure fantasy! The male lead simulates the perfect crime ten thousand times, learning countless skills. Instead, he turned to law enforcement, solving case after case, his reputation growing ever stronger. He worked on a criminal organization whose members were all leaders of a black market supply chain, each a murderer, using letters or names like "Butcher" as code names. He and several other capable individuals formed a special task force to combat the criminals. Tragically, one of his teammates was killed in the process. The protagonist then transformed himself into the criminal, single-handedly and ruthlessly cracking down on the criminals, shocking everyone. A foreign president commented: "It's like seeing a top-tier criminal; he is 'the most perfect criminal and the most outstanding detective.'"

    This is the most unique mystery novel I've ever read on Tomato. It's a battle of wits between high-IQ individuals, written in a clean and concise style without any unnecessary embellishment.
