    29Staying up late to read "New Cool Articles" will definitely quench your thirst! "Batch of Joy" used to be an invincible and cool book on martial arts, but this book is a cool book on partial literature. Especially people who don't understand programming feel more comfortable reading it, because they don't understand but the protagonist feels very cool. The main thing is to create a kind of invincibility, one that is imaginable, one that makes me feel the same, and this kind of invincibility in literature is invincibility in knowledge.

    This is a gray debate about "order, fairness, sacrifice and redemption." . There are no perfect heroes here, only complex and real people who fight for their beliefs, selfish desires, and loved ones. If you are tired of black-and-white novels, if you like group portraits and human dilemmas, if you can accept that good people will do bad things, bad people have their own reasons, and the protagonist's path is full of confusion and cost, then this book may give you some different thoughts. Welcome to a world where there are no standard answers.
