This is an anti-gangster, anti-corruption novel similar to The Knockout. Through depicting the lives of people in many cities, it seeks to reflect the complexity and gravity of life. For ordinary people like us, there are dark sides to some cities that need to be restrained by the power of justice and exposed by clear-sighted eyes. The injustices and inequities of this world must be eliminated, so that the world may have clarity, fairness, order, and peace. That is why we need to crack down on crime and corruption, and why everyone must work together. This is not only the responsibility of those in power, but also the responsibility and hope of every ordinary citizen.
The novel is not long, and is still being written, but it will probably be no more than around 200,000 Chinese characters. Compared with online novels that often run to millions of characters, it is very short indeed. Still, the author hopes to do their best to write this little novel well, filling it with rich content, vivid characters, and profound ideas. The hope is that it will inspire readers to reflect, while also letting them feel the cold, harsh reality of this urban world, so they can face their own lives with a positive and constructive attitude.
I originally wanted to title the book The Abyss, but since it has some similarities to the TV series The Knockout, I changed the title a little, hoping to take advantage of the buzz. Please forgive the author for wanting to share this work with everyone as widely as possible. Thank you.
