Well, the author definitely wanted to write a satisfying story, but some parts of his writing made the reader feel particularly frustrated. I have a suggestion for the author: if you can write a satisfying story, don't be afraid of it falling apart. Even if it falls apart, it's better than this frustrating story. The worst thing is when you write something satisfying but it's not satisfying at all, and it's also unpleasant to read. After a long day, who wants to feel bad?
There are so many female characters in Hong Kong films, why choose Salina? Does anyone know where the drug dealer's ledger is or what the password is? Think about it carefully. You, a detective specializing in nighttime crime, didn't kill him and even started a relationship with her. Yue, your image is ruined! There are countless leading ladies in Hong Kong films.
Disguise is for disguise; are you afraid that being a handsome man isn't enough to attract attention?
The character's actions are utterly absurd and idiotic. Before each murder, he'd show off his true form in front of the victim, buy bows and arrows but never use the money he'd borrowed—he just used his own. Why choose a drug dealer's secretary when there are so many Hong Kong variety show heroines available? And this is supposed to be a night-time detective? Her character is completely ruined; she's just a murderer.
These days, novels are all about harems. I really want to ask, can they even handle playing with so many women? Sooner or later, they'll all be cuckolded. Besides, these days books can't be explicit; writing about so many women is pointless. They might as well rely on the plot to tell the story.
Negative review
It's illogical and, while it's a lighthearted read, the nonsensical writing is just unpleasant to read! The protagonist solves cases but doesn't get promoted, and the cash rewards for each case are changed frequently – initially mentioned as one case, then another a few chapters later. Everyone knows the protagonist embezzled money from drug lords and bought arrows on the black market, but why didn't he dare use them? These mindless parts are like being fed garbage.
Even though it's free for a limited time, I can't get into it... In this book, everyone in the world has an IQ that's dropped to kindergarten level, except the protagonist is still in first grade... How am I supposed to understand that?
I was thinking of checking it out for free, but it turns out it's a terrible book, with hundreds of thousands of words of Hong Kong variety shows I've never read before. What a piece of junk!
What does this system have to do with being a police officer? Why insist on becoming a police officer? It's awkward to want to earn merit and promotion while saying you don't want to be too famous. Other professions are actually less dangerous, and there are many more ways to meet beautiful women. Why stay in the police force?
It's over a million words long, and there aren't even 80 comments. I can't even be bothered to criticize you.
