   All three books have ratings of 9 or higher. The first one feels very realistic, with cases solved quickly. The characters have a lot of emotions, unlike some protagonists whose emotions are overly strong; they experience confusion, realization, and feel real. The second book has a tight plot, full of suspense, and completely draws you in! Each character is described in great detail, making them feel real and relatable. The protagonist is frighteningly meticulous... And the cases are chilling, with twists and turns throughout the story. However, the protagonist's plot armor is a bit too strong, making the police officers' intelligence seem somewhat unbelievable in comparison. But it's still understandable; after all, a twisted mind and a paragon of justice are incomprehensible. The third book, although it features a cheat-like protagonist, doesn't have any obvious logical or common-sense problems in the process of using the cheat to solve cases and find clues. In addition, this novel has many interesting characters, and the police officers work together without much melodramatic nonsense. Have you heard the fourth book about an art teacher solving crimes? Jian Wenxing, a contracted art teacher, unexpectedly acquires a crime-solving system, and from then on, a new star rises! He becomes a crime-fighting nemesis, striking fear into the hearts of wanted criminals! Hunting for the truth! He can paint skin, bones, people, and even the heart—all crimes will eventually be exposed! No criminal can escape Jian Wenxing's eyes! A Class A wanted criminal who happened to pass by a private high school and even had plastic surgery? Arrest him! A fraudster who kidnapped a female anchor in the city center? Arrest him! A criminal with ulterior motives who plotted to expose important business information? Arrest him! The police themselves go to great lengths to win over Jian Wenxing! The fifth book features a murder case that is simultaneously linked to a god-level choice system! Every choice he makes earns him a reward! With the system's help, his life trajectory gradually veers off course: "Hello, I need to call the police. Mingjia Community, Building 1, Unit 2, Apartment 603, someone's been murdered... Yes, I'm safe now... Two people are dead... The murderer? Hmm, I locked him out... I have no connection to the victims, I'm a food delivery guy..." Officer Wen: "Why do you, a food delivery guy, always end up at crime scenes?"... Su He smiled and said, "Would you believe me if I said it was a coincidence?" The others are also good, recommended.

    A new case has emerged! Who would have thought! A half-open door, unnoticed by anyone, has directly unearthed a long-forgotten, eerie mystery! A routine call to the police by the property management, and the unlocked side door of the clinic's backyard—seemingly just a minor burglary. The lock was intact, with no signs of forced entry, and the burglar entered and exited normally with the key. Yet, the storage room was empty, and nothing was missing. Only a strange, mixed odor lingered in the air, dark yellow water stains remained on the freezer, and the floor in the corner had an unusual color. A repairman sneaked in late at night to steal medicine, hastily leaving without locking the door—a seemingly insignificant petty theft. But no one expected that the flaw he carelessly left would lead the police to uncover the most chilling hidden evidence! Inside a transparent resin amber ornament, there was a strangely thin piece of bone—a truly terrifying thought! Even more unusual was the clinic owner, who, upon hearing of the anomaly in the yard, refused to appear, coldly handing the matter over to the police. Beneath the calm surface of the clinic, undercurrents surge; behind the ordinary clutter lies a deadly truth. This case is far from simple!
