   Reader note

   A suspenseful and imaginative story. I've read it for over 16,000 hours. The protagonist is a descendant of Xie Bi'an, the White Impermanence, and has connections to the Underworld. It's a fanfiction of Soul Ferry, with cameos from Under One Person and Animal Management Bureau. The protagonist joins the original trio, but the content doesn't seem to have much to do with the title. So far, it seems the protagonist and Acha aren't a couple. It's quite good and a relatively smooth Soul Ferry fanfiction.

   Reader note

   Recommendation Reasons: *The Strongest Wanted Criminal in History* – Hardcore Escape and Mystery Solving Under Police Pursuit 1. Explosive Setting, High-Energy from the Start: In his previous life, detective Chen Mu opens his eyes to find himself transformed from a law enforcement officer into a fugitive wanted for wiping out his family. The piercing sirens and the heavily guarded encirclement instantly create a tense atmosphere. Even more ingenious is the "Escape Serial" system – requiring readers to publicly update their experiences to survive. This setting, where one's life-or-death struggle is laid bare, is a pinnacle of suspense novel creativity; you'll find yourself clenching your fists after just two chapters. 2. Tight-Pace, Abundant Twists and Turns: As a 590,000-word novel, the plot is padded throughout. Relying on his professional detective skills, Chen Mu plays a "cat and mouse game" within the inescapable net, with interconnected plots involving disguise, misleading tracking, and on-site investigation. One chapter leaves you wondering, "This is illogical," while the next reveals that "the fog is starting to lift." Every foreshadowing hides a twist, no wonder readers are eagerly anticipating the next chapter, exclaiming, "Just thinking about it is thrilling!" 3. Engaging characters and high-tension confrontations: The protagonist isn't a mindless runaway; his meticulous thinking, honed from his past life as a detective, allows him to unravel the mystery even in dire straits. The relentless pursuit by the pursuers and internal suspicions further intensify the "proving innocence" storyline with a sense of strategic maneuvering. Bold plots like "a fake cop entering a real cop's house" lend a hardcore intellectual edge to this "suicidal escape," making the character's psychological strength absurd. 4. Full of suspense, details reveal the truth: Clues to the true culprit in the family annihilation case are hidden in every step of the escape. From the concealed traces at the crime scene to the unusual reactions of various forces, the author uses details that suggest "something is amiss," allowing readers to deduce alongside Chen Mu. It combines the thrill of police chases with the mystery of supernatural elements, making it a must-read for suspense enthusiasts.

    Whether you've played Life and Death Sniper or not doesn't matter; it's a pretty good book. The protagonist is strong from beginning to end, but it's not just about crushing everyone. The supporting characters are also well-written, and there are both gunfights and hand-to-hand combat. I recommend giving it a try.
