   Reader note

   Please appreciate this! There is no justice on earth, but the divine court judges good and evil. When the law is silent, schools cover up wrongdoing, and the world is indifferent, he, in the name of God, judges all sins. He may lose his emotions, but he upholds the bottom line; he holds the courtroom, but his heart is with humanity. This time, justice, though delayed, will not be absent.

   This is a different kind of fantasy novel, featuring fatalism and time travel, allowing readers to witness future events. Even knowing the prophetic outcome, one is powerless to change it. It's like someone predicting you'll have a romantic encounter tomorrow, but you refuse to believe it.

It turns out your neighbor's toilet is broken and they need to use your place. If you hadn't refused to believe it, you wouldn't have been waiting at home for this unexpected event. This is the mysterious and wondrous aspect of the story. This fantasy novel is written with this kind of plot in mind. Feel free to read and comment.

   The first book, which I'm currently reading, is safe and harmless, based on my own experience. The protagonist transmigrates into a book as the villain (to be honest, Lin Fan is more like the villain), changing identities every day. He annihilates Lin Fan! The second book is an urban mecha story; the protagonist starts by being framed by villains, but later relies on a system for revenge. (The synopsis is insufficient, please read the main text.) The third book features a protagonist who, along with a naval admiral, transmigrates to a parallel world (post-apocalyptic) to build the strongest agency!
