    Before reading this book, I never imagined that the word "seriousness" could be so moving. In one case, Li Wei, preoccupied with chicken droppings for half an hour, finding weasel teeth marks. In another, he let the ox plow the field himself, squatting on the edge of the field watching for a whole morning. In a third, he smelled tung oil against a charred wall, turning to the head constable and saying, "This wasn't an accident." There were no cheat codes, no superhuman detective system. He simply squatted down to observe, lay down to smell, and proceeded step by step. Some say this writing style is too slow and unsatisfying. But I think that the most satisfying thing is for someone to earnestly do a small thing well, to the extreme. The people of Yunyang lined up to submit their petitions, and the judgments on the notice board changed again and again—that scene was more reassuring than any slap in the face or boasting. If you also believe that seriousness is useful, this book will make you feel understood.
