Cang's Ramblings

Chapter 72 71. Review of "The Weird Detective Agency"

Today I would like to recommend to you a work that has been completely rewritten.

"The Bizarre Detective Agency", author: I am the Righteous Way, level 4 author.

Category: Suspense-Wonderful World.

【Introduction】

A door opened before my eyes.

Evil is thriving, and whispers are spilling out from behind the door.

The resentful compound eyes flashed by, blocking the existence that wanted to break out, and the bewitching whispers echoed in the ears.

A slimy pink brain muttered softly. A figure in a yellow cloak observed quietly. A dark green entity, like fishy mud, watched indifferently. A string of strange soap bubbles released a friendly feeling—

In any case, they sincerely invited Lu Li to join this crazy party.

Lu Li stepped in, his steps firm and unwavering.

【Golden Ten Chapters】

Chapter 1: The Exorcist. The protagonist Lu Li travels to a port city during the Western industrial era, where he is responsible for performing exorcisms on people and seeking treatment from a psychiatrist at the same time.

Chapter 2: Staying in the Light. The protagonist stayed in his own detective agency, recalling his life after the time travel, thinking about the so-called suspenseful events that people talked about. When "He" actually appeared, he was not panicked at all.

Chapter 3: The Real Exorcist. The next day, the protagonist is out wandering and meets a groom who takes him to a real exorcist detective agency. The protagonist buys a gun to use for exorcisms.

Chapter 4: Man, Lamp, and Flame. A psychic gun, capable of exorcism. This true exorcist explains to the protagonist the difference between humans and himself, and how to communicate, just as the title suggests.

Chapter 5: The More You Know, the Faster You Die. The protagonist wanted to know more about the hierarchy of "Him" and the various types of exorcists, but was told the title.

Chapter 6: Shipwreck. The protagonist finishes chatting with the man and buys more things. After leaving the detective agency, a description reminiscent of "Lord of Mysteries" begins, and then he buys a newspaper.

Chapter 7, Night Watchmen. A fishing boat enters the harbor, and the protagonist takes a quick look. The boat appears normal, but he does spot two night watchmen. In the fog, the night watchmen are only interested in the pollutants.

Chapter 8: The Slavs' Covetousness. The protagonist calls his informant, who is actually just taking on missions for the protagonist. The informant's landlord seems to have some feelings for the protagonist.

Chapter 9, Oliver No Last Name. When Oliver meets the protagonist offline, he unexpectedly dresses as a woman. The protagonist visits the client's home, takes a look, and then turns to leave.

Chapter 10: Possessed by an Evil Spirit. The protagonist encounters a person possessed by an evil spirit at the client's home and discovers a clue in a radio. When questioned privately, the person admits to faking it in order to break off the engagement. As the protagonist is about to leave, a sneer appears on the person's lips.

【Brief Comment】

I have previously reviewed another book by this author.

The name of the book is "After Sleep", originally named "Gazing into the Abyss".

This book, like that one, has also experienced bans and unbans.

I believe many people will be curious about what kind of content an author wrote that would cause him to keep encountering such things.

After a trial reading, I think this book can be simply summarized as a suspense version of "Lord of Mysteries".

I'm not trying to take advantage of the popularity of "Lord of Mysteries".

You know, before the Mystery, people had written about steam and guns, secrets of the Victorian era, etc., but none of them became popular.

It was the squid's move that completely revitalized the field, and incidentally, brought Cthulhu along with it.

Of course, some people may disagree and think that squids do not have that much energy.

This is not important at all.

What you need to understand is that this book also tells a story of the Victorian era, or rather, a story set in an alternate world during the Industrial Revolution. A time traveler, Lu Li, arrives unexpectedly. He sells his phone, buys a house, and opens a detective agency, posing as an exorcist to uncover the truth about this world.

The area where he lived experienced a major fire a few years ago, and precious information was lost, nothing was left.

In addition to the more fearful residents, and a very cunning professional exorcist.

The protagonist bought weapons and ammunition from him and learned a lot of useful information.

"Stay where there is light", "The more you know, the faster you die!", etc.

After the protagonist succeeded in exorcising the demon by chance, he successfully joined the Night Watch, the official ghost-catching organization.

A bit like the Night's Watch in Game of Thrones.

Many plots and settings in this book are similar to those in "Lord of Mysteries", but the language and details are more suspenseful, and there are relatively more thrillers.

The author has a very creative imagination, and the ghosts often appear in bizarre ways.

A pale face like coffee latte art flowed out from the sticky water.

The girl stuck in the painting fell to the ground and then stood up calmly.

The author uses extremely simple words and disdains to use long descriptions to fill up the word count. He is also not like some game novels that have character attribute panels one moment and detailed explanations of skills the next.

The profession settings in this book are very simple. Ghosts, evil spirits, evil spirits, exorcists and night watchmen are easy to understand.

The weapon used by the exorcist is a gun, which can deliver a fatal blow within the effective range.

As for the connection, entanglement, backlash between the human world and the ghost world, as well as whether they can penetrate each other, I believe they will all be slowly revealed in the following text.

【to sum up】

This book can be said to be using the skin of "Lord of Mysteries" to carry out his infinitely suspenseful "activities"!
Currently there are only 75 words, which is not a large amount, but it quenches your thirst.

Writing is not easy, so cherish every moment!

I’m Cang Yiwei, and I’m here to endorse “The Devil of Collapse”!
【Cang's Ramblings】

Pass the Golden Ten Chapters (I just wrote them, they are fresh),

I believe everyone can read a strong flavor of a simplified version of "Lord of Mysteries".

This is nothing. Many big guys are very good at imitating other people's works.

It’s just that some people don’t have that kind of temperament and keep procrastinating.

My unwillingness to be ordinary forced me to read "Lord of Mysteries" ten times, but I still failed to break through the 100-chapter mark.

This isn’t to say that cryptic isn’t fun to watch.

It’s because the setting is so great, the writing is so elegant, and my personality is so...

However, after simplifying the mystery, "Detective Agency" becomes more down-to-earth to read.

At least you don't have to completely transform into that industrial revolution period, nor do you have to deeply understand the customs and habits of that period, the price trends of bread and potatoes, and how to stew them to make them tender and tasty.

There was no need to gouge out your right eye in the bathroom and stuff a monocular lens in it.

The above sentence is actually a spoof!
What I want to say is that if you are a reader who loves suspense, wants to appear more elegant, and has some connection with the most popular "Lord of Mysteries" on this site.

This book is undoubtedly your excellent choice!
