I'm looking for books like The Longest Day in Chang'an, the complete two-volume edition. No modern technology: solving cases in ancient times should be genuinely difficult. Stories where the protagonist gets a System for no reason are no fun.

If you want to read ancient stories about solving crimes, you can read this book! A modern male forensic doctor travels back to ancient times to work as a coroner. He does not rely on metaphysics, but conducts real-life autopsies, trace reasoning, bone examinations to identify injuries, and vindicate unjust cases. Systemless. The highlight is the group portrait of multiple female protagonists, not the harem! The female protagonists each have their own abilities, and they follow the male protagonist to investigate cases and pursue careers. There is no female rivalry or bloody romance. The cases are linked one after another, with many twists and turns. The focus is entirely on solving the case. Those who like hard-core criminal investigation can check it out.

Reader note
"The Case of the Sinful Buddha: The Female Jinyi Guard Kills the Buddha When She Encounters a Case, and Kills a Demon When She Encounters a Demon", the story begins with a murder case in the "Jinxiu Pavilion", the top embroidery workshop in the capital. The skilled embroiderer Su Axiu was found murdered in a very strange way in the workshop. Her blood was used to complete an unfinished embroidery called "A Hundred Birds Pay Attention to the Phoenix". Silk threads were intertwined with blood vessels, presenting a terrifying scene of "living threads sewing souls". Shen Qingchuan, a member of the female Jin Yiwei family, was ordered to investigate. With his profound knowledge of medicine and poison, he discovered that the deceased was accurately bled to death while he was conscious. The murderer used special drugs to keep his mind clear so as to feel the extreme pain. The method of committing the crime was both cruel and sophisticated with a sense of ritual. The heroine of the novel, Shen Qingchuan, is a member of hundreds of royal families and is proficient in medicine and poison. The male protagonist Gu Changyuan, Qian Hu, the female protagonist's court supporter. The male protagonist Li Wuhuan is the master of Wangyou Pavilion and the core of the intelligence network. The three team up to solve a series of mysterious cases (mysteries, strange cases, forbidden cases, special cases, trick cases...), And the clues all point to the extremist organization "Sin Buddha" - under the banner of "purifying the world", they use secret techniques to create murderous cases and eliminate the so-called "filth". Sin Buddha targets powerful officials in the court, and the conspiracy to shake the foundation of the country is about to come out. All unit cases in this novel are independent chapters, but they form a closed loop due to the infiltration of "Sinful Buddha". The hidden identities and secrets behind Shen Qingchuan, Gu Changyuan, and Li Wuhuan will be revealed as the cases are continuously solved, and the "Sinful Buddha"'s conspiracy against the government and the opposition has also surfaced one by one.

[Bookshelf plus one] An account book lit up Chang'an Night, changing the ending of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in 72 hours! "Three Days in Luoyang" uses an account book to cut into Wu Zhou's darkest conspiracy heart. [Like] Three must-read highlights: Why it is worth staying up all night. This is not only a historical suspense novel, but also a high-concept work that creates a unique track. Your reading time will be exchanged for three high-density values: 1. The first "account book review" type of suspense, with an unprecedented angle of entry · Core setting: While other protagonists are practicing and upgrading, the protagonist of this book, Li Suan, a ninth-grade household official, is using an abacus and absolute sensitivity to numbers to solve murder cases and corruption networks among piles of account books, and finally prevent a coup that overthrows the dynasty. The audit report has become the most deadly weapon, and the crackling sound of the abacus is more frightening than the sword. · Reading experience: This is not a time-traveler using modern knowledge to reduce dimensionality, but a local little man's PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds using his own expertise to break the situation under extreme pressure. You will follow him, smell the smell of blood from boring numbers, and experience the ultimate sense of wits and wits that "numbers are like knives, capable of killing dynasties". 2. Accurately meet the taste of high-quality readers · The game of human nature: The core of the story is the extreme dealings and psychological games between Li Suan and Wu Zetian, Princess Taiping, Lai Junchen and other forces. In the desperate situation of "unfair accounts and lives at stake", every choice is a gamble of life and death, brain-burning and exciting. · Textual research-based creation: The background of the story is set in Wu Zetian's first year of Zhengsheng, and details such as water transportation, charcoal and ice worship are all based on. The author uses solid details to make the atmosphere and undercurrents of the prosperous Tang Dynasty vividly appear on the page, making reading both a sense of historical immersion and the pleasure of solving puzzles. · Strong rhythm and famous scenes: The whole book closely follows the countdown of "72 hours before the Lantern Festival", and the rhythm is as tight as a drum beat. From discovering the account books to being chased by ruthless officials, to the final showdown at the lantern festival, the whole process is high-energy and has a strong visual sense. It naturally has the potential for readers to spontaneously generate "famous scene" pictures and discussions. 3. The perspective of a small person triggers the strongest resonance. The protagonist Li Suan has no system or powers, only an abacus and survival instinct. His fear, struggle and wisdom in desperate situations can make every ordinary person who faces pressure in reality find a strong sense of empathy. This narrative of "little people leveraging big history" is the most empathetic theme at the moment. [Love] One sentence summary: If you are tired of the same time-travel routines and long for a historical suspense masterpiece with online IQ, novel setting, and explosive rhythm, "Three Days in Luoyang" will be your best choice. Open this "King of Hell's Account" and join the storm of little people's accounts that determine life and death in the city of God. …
