Three Years of Metaphysics, Five Years of Case Solving (2)

I’m grateful to everyone who enjoyed this book. I’m sorry I rushed the ending. I’ll post the rest of the story here for free. I’m sorry, everyone.

Xu Shuyan is a genius metaphysician who accidentally transmigrates into a detective novel. To carry on the dream of the detective grandfather who took her in, she decides to become a detective.

But her methods are nothing like anyone else’s. While other people follow clues to catch the real culprit, she takes one look and names them, then finds the decisive piece of evidence and gets them to confess.

In a little girl’s disappearance case:

At the beginning:

Xu Shuyan: Grandpa, that guy’s the culprit!

Her detective grandfather: ??? You took one look and already know who did it!? Don’t mess around. We haven’t even started investigating.

Then he takes her along as they pursue the culprit, while Xu Shuyan watches the culprit disappear into the distance and silently screams in frustration: Grandpa, believe me! That guy is practically surrounded by a bloody aura!

Later:

Because of the culprit’s sophisticated methods, the police can’t convict him.

The culprit laughs arrogantly: Is that all you’ve got?

Xu Shuyan smiles too, then pulls out a rope.

The laughter abruptly stops.

Xu Shuyan: All right, I have the murder weapon. Confess.

The culprit drops his hands helplessly and lowers his head in admission of guilt.

Thanks to her lightning-fast case-solving, Xu Shuyan quickly rises to prominence as the next generation’s great detective. Her career is going swimmingly, except whenever she runs into a certain great detective.

Xu Shuyan is on the verge of tears: Buddy, stop following me.

Someone grits his teeth, unconvinced: Damn it! Why did you find the culprit a second before me? You’re really something. No, let’s have another contest!

Xu Shuyan shrieks like a chicken: I’m cheating with a cheat code! Stop coming after me! We’re going to run out of criminals to catch!
