   One day, a national raid team detected highly dangerous energy in a residential area and glimpsed a refined and gentle writer. The writer stood quietly before the "Cleaner," his scholarly air reminiscent of a schoolteacher. He nodded slightly to the drone and said gently, "Good night, everyone." The writer greeted the high-ranking officials with composure and gentleness, but was met with warnings from them that he was something indescribable. Originally, he was a wealthy young master from the Republican era, exceptionally intelligent. He could read at two, compose poetry at five, and write essays at seven. Everyone who met him praised him highly, deeming him a true prodigy. Despite receiving praise from a young age, he did not suffer the fate of a prodigy like Zhong Yong; he remained humble and polite, treating everyone with gentleness. He studied under numerous literary masters and even went abroad to learn, striving for excellence in writing without seeking empty fame. A refined gentleman, gentle and gentle, unparalleled in his field. Returning home, I felt a pang of sorrow for my homeland at a time of crisis; with lofty national aspirations in my heart, I resolutely bowed and left home.

    Although not a Konami-type, his strange and powerful nature, coupled with his unawareness and dull, clueless personality, perhaps fits the bill? The protagonist is transported to a world of miniature blocks (actually, a one-sided view of blocks), and his unwillingness to accept reality creates a strangely calm atmosphere. Oh, and there's the opening highlight, "putting on a good show." Literally. From the perspective of the miniature blocks, war, pain, and bloodshed are invisible. Therefore, the protagonist sees this world as a sunny, righteous, passionate, and innocent children's play by miniature blocks. He has no memories, perhaps due to cognitive impairment caused by his superpower (?). His world is made of blocks; there is no pain, no bloodshed, everything is just a performance by childish blocks. But from the perspective of others, he's a sickly, beautiful boy with empty eyes, extremely poor socialization, and indifferent to everything. Furthermore, the other three protagonists of this shonen shonen manga are also incredibly charming.

    Judging by the reading time I've spent, you can tell how good these books are. I'm extremely picky; I won't read or recommend a book I don't enjoy. Except for the second book with two male leads, the others don't have a romantic pairing. The first book is a card-drawing system where the protagonist is an actor, randomly selected as a clown, assassin, captain, or cannibal—a dangerous character, a frequent visitor to the police station, making officers exclaim, "We want to arrest him, but we have no evidence!" The second book is about multiple personalities, where the protagonist is also an actor, switching between a refined yet ruthless assassin. I highly recommend the author's other books; they're definitely worth reading. The third book feels like a substitute; the protagonist thinks he's very obedient, but is actually a cold-faced demon king (a point I really like—the protagonist is playing a game, but others see the real world; to the protagonist, everyone else is an NPC, hence the protagonist is very human-machine, which is adorable). The fourth book is an infinite flow novel with a novel setting, a fast-paced and interesting plot, and a two-minute speedrun after death that went viral globally. The protagonist, considered a big shot, sees himself as a small fry. The only downside is that the author often misses updates due to inspiration issues, but that's alright.
