※SUMMARY※
Childhood, upbringing, family background, social connections, traumas...
We ceaselessly seek and explore the motives of criminals, pursue every faint trace of emotion among them, not to sympathize with them and even forgive them, not to find a reason to exonerate them of their crimes, not to bow before the so-called complexities of human nature, not to reflect on social conflicts, and certainly not to become monsters ourselves-
It is only to find a just account for ourselves and for those who still have hope for the world.
Summary translation by E.Danglars
.
⁕the review is a personal subjective take.
※RELATIONSHIP DYNAMIC※
The relationship development between Luo Wenzhou and Fei Du is chock full of flirting, banter, avoidance by flirting (from Fei Du), uncovering secrets and overcoming trauma through solving cases together.
It's rivals to lovers dynamic with added accidental flirting (which becomes not so accidental later on) and banter between two intelligent men who know their stuff and know what they want.
CONTENT WARNINGS:※
Being a psychological thriller/mystery crime novel, it does need a lot of warnings. This is a mature novel, and it deals with mature content. And no, I do not mean explicit sexual scenes between the main pair.
These warnings are all related to the cases and some are related to Fei Du's childhood trauma, highlight them to see what they are as they may be spoilery for those who prefer to find out on their own.
Warnings! Drugs (not heavily depicted), child prostitution (paedophilia), child abuse (physical and mental), suicide.
