It's so drawn out. Even the question of whether or not to prove oneself takes several chapters to explain. Crime stories are all about tight plots, suspense, and constant twists... This rambling is unbearable to read.

I was looking forward to a case-solving episode, but it was so drawn-out and padded out, and the female lead acted like an idiot, constantly jumping around. Her relationship with the male lead was also inexplicable; it was as if she were some kind of fairy. From her very first appearance, she had suitors like a young scholar, Tan Wusu, a man surnamed Nie, and of course, the male lead.

At the beginning, Granny Wu, who was begging for a living, used her own coat and the only half of a pancake to save the female protagonist who was on the verge of death. Such a person, who was almost freezing and starving to death, was willing to do so much for a complete stranger like the female protagonist.

The story is quite good, but the pacing is too slow and not tight enough.

I can't bear to watch anymore. No, it should be said this way. I really have been watching patiently the whole time. The plot is actually quite good. The author still needs to work very hard to improve their writing skills. To write about characters in plain language. The female and male leads are the ideal couple in this book. The supporting characters all seem like simpletons.

I've had it for over a week without checking, and there's been no progress. I'm waiting for the county magistrate's public trial.

Ugh, the plot lacks concrete details, the case is vaguely described, and the characters are a mess. Granny Wu is kind and saves the female lead, giving her her only coat and only biscuit, but later she becomes stingy, nagging and miserly at home, acting like a wicked mother-in-law. Her words don't align with her character, and her personality is completely inconsistent.

I'm interested in the novel's title and synopsis, but the reviews are discouraging. I'd appreciate recommendations from serious readers who can advise against reading it.

The novel's opening is quite abrupt and nonsensical. A coroner? A family reunion?
