Crime is society's rot; motive is human nature laid bare.
Xianxu Shanfang is full of archives and mystery novels. Those words from Raymond were first told to me by the owner here. By then, I had been working at Xianxu Shanfang for a long time. I was crouched on the floor, feeding a fat orange cat named Hulu, carrying out one of my job duties, while the owner lounged comfortably in a beanbag chair and leafed through a Ming dynasty book with a broken binding. As usual, he spoke in a lazy drawl.
Tourists streamed through the old street. Sunlight came through the floor-to-ceiling windows of this private studio near the Lion Grove Garden, illuminating an ancient painting of a Ming official hanging on the wall.
I looked up at the elderly man in the painting, whose somewhat abstract features bore a faint resemblance to the owner's. Hulu rolled over beneath my hand and stretched out his hefty limbs. Fine hairs caught the warm light.
A social mystery: two murders, one during the Hongzhi era and one in 2025, told along parallel timelines that weave between past and present.
First person, no CP (feel free to ship anyone you like; romance won't appear in the story).
Theme: Motive is human nature laid bare.
Finished spreading flowers! I really want to see the teacher write a fantasy book, it's very touching (｡ì _ í｡)
Thousand layer cakes interlocking with each other!!!
The plaster is trying to cover something [dissolved], so I just bite the bullet and read the reasoning (｡ ́ ̀｡)
Is it Xu Yuan's good deeds? But she can't act.
Who will help her "liberate" [question mark]
Oh~it turns out there is no Changqing
Could it be that Changqing is a woman?
Wow, Xiao Lu is so powerful.
After searching, I found out that the title page of "The Fox Married Man" was hand-rubbed by a teacher. His basic Chinese skills are so good that he can cut through the earth 🙏
