   What good does this book, Laugh Me to Death, do to you? I recently read a magical book. If it weren't for the suspense elements, I would have thought I was watching a comedy! At the beginning, the protagonist is confused and involved in an extremely absurd "mysterious incident". Others are busy solving the case and looking for clues, but he is better. His mind is filled with "Why is this so outrageous, why am I so unlucky", and all kinds of inner complaints make people beat the bed with laughter. The author's brain circuit is simply twists and turns, the clues are hidden so deep, and he makes sharp turns from time to time. One second I was following the protagonist's train of thought to analyze the case, and the next second I was led astray by a sudden and funny plot. When I came back to my senses, I realized that I had been confused by the clues. The supporting characters are all living treasures. They seem harmless to humans and animals, but in fact they have hidden secrets. Everyone has their own "little plan". Together they are like a farce, and it is difficult to tell whether they are investigating a case or acting in a sketch. The dialogue in the book is even more outstanding. It only lasts three seconds. It is obviously an exciting questioning session, but suddenly it turns into a meeting of mutual complaints. The suspect is making serious excuses, and the protagonist is tearing things apart mercilessly. This kind of cute contrast directly messes up the suspenseful atmosphere, but it makes people unable to stop watching. When the truth was revealed, I lamented the author's imagination and laughed at how I had been deceived by these funny baggage. I can only say that this book is poisonous, with a perfect blend of comedy and suspense. It made me both happy and brain-burning. I highly recommend it to friends who want to have fun and love to burn their brains!
