    Instead of following the familiar post-apocalyptic monster-slaying and leveling-up trope, this book focuses on the "renovation of an abandoned ancient town," creating a striking contrast that directly hits the sweet spot. On one hand, there's a desolate wasteland overrun by zombies and freezing cold; on the other, a bustling town with a market piled high with cucumbers and potatoes, taverns wafting with aromas, and hot springs steaming – the imagery is absolutely stunning! From basic infrastructure to "outlandish blind box shops" and "pet shops with supernatural abilities," to preserving intangible cultural heritage, hosting harvest festivals/sports meets/cosplay parties, the details of daily life are overflowing. Even the scene of old and young people in thick pajamas chatting and eating sunflower seeds under an ancient tree at the town entrance is vividly portrayed, giving the impression of "making the most of life in the apocalypse." The female lead, without a romantic subplot, focuses on her career, the residents are portrayed as vibrant and warm, and there are no melodramatic plot twists, only the leisurely and healing daily life of the town. It's a relaxing and heartwarming read, definitely worth adding to your bookshelf!

I've already finished it, and I thought it was pretty good. It's non-romantic, with a tiny bit of romance, almost negligible. The female lead is very clear-headed and free-spirited, striving for what she wants!! I'm currently reading the second one, also non-romantic, but with a male lead, and it actually has a bit of an ensemble cast feel!! I think it's pretty good too, the plot is very tight, and there are some funny elements, so it doesn't feel like you're constantly on edge solving cases. The descriptions are also quite realistic, giving me the feeling that the author is also a police officer!!

    Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! Don't let the title stop you from enjoying it. It has a complete world-building, a well-developed and compelling male lead who gradually levels up and progresses. There are many exciting scenes, and it's not awkward at all; the story flows smoothly. It's not a harem novel either. The female lead is crazy but intelligent, and the overall focus is on team development. 👍👍👍
