Another is 'The Tell - Tale Heart'. The narrator's attempt to convince the reader of his sanity while clearly being insane as he is haunted by the old man's vulture - like eye. It's a short but extremely clever horror story that plays with the reader's perception.
One clever horror story is 'The Yellow Wallpaper'. It tells the tale of a woman's descent into madness as she becomes obsessed with the pattern on the wallpaper in her room. The way the author builds the sense of unease and the woman's psychological breakdown is very clever.
One clever ghost story is 'The Canterville Ghost' by Oscar Wilde. It tells the story of an American family who moves into a haunted English castle. The ghost tries to scare them but is constantly outwitted by the family, especially the young daughter. It's a humorous and clever take on the typical ghost story.
Then there's 'The Necklace' by Guy de Maupassant. A woman borrows a diamond necklace to attend a ball, but loses it. She and her husband spend years working hard to pay off the debt for a replacement. In the end, she discovers that the original necklace was a fake. This story cleverly shows the vanity and the consequences of false pride.
Another one is about a dolphin. In an aquarium, a dolphin noticed that the trainers would reward it when it did a new trick. So the dolphin started combining different tricks it already knew in new ways to keep getting rewards. This shows the dolphin's intelligence in understanding the reward system and being creative to get more treats.
Sure. There is a story about a crow. Once, the crow was very thirsty. It found a pitcher with a little water at the bottom. But its beak couldn't reach the water.

It shows how clever the crow can be in solving problems.
There's a fanfic called 'Naruto's Intellectual Ascent'. In this story, Naruto not only grows in his ninja skills but also in his intelligence. It shows how he uses his wits to solve complex problems in the ninja world. The character development is really well - done and it's a very engaging read.
According to the information provided, the following novels can be recommended: - " The Author Who Enters the World of Cultivation ": The ending was a little rushed, but the main character's cultivation path was very difficult and full of adventures. I believe it will resonate with the readers. - " Gift of a Hundred Ghosts ": The ending is a little sad, but the whole novel has a unique atmosphere and twists and turns. It's worth reading. - " Demon Crown Prince ": The ending was perfect. Although the protagonist was a demon, the story was full of justice and courage. - " Taoist Mo returns late ": The ending is relatively cheerful. The female protagonist, Qin Guiwan, constantly overcame difficulties and finally walked towards her own happy life. - " Yun Ran Ji ": The ending was also very good. The protagonist gradually grew up in the constant competition and finally reached his goal. The above novels all have their own characteristics and deep human thoughts. I hope you will like my recommendations.
They also use unique narrative devices. In a regular horror story, it could be a simple linear narrative of something spooky happening. But in clever ones, like 'House of Leaves', the very structure of the book with its footnotes and changing text layout adds to the horror. It's not just about what's being said but how it's being presented.
Sure. One story is about a magician. He was on a cruise ship performing tricks. He had a parrot as his assistant. Every time the magician did a trick, the parrot would yell, 'It's in his sleeve!' The magician was furious but couldn't do anything. One day the ship sank. The magician found himself floating on a piece of wood with the parrot. The parrot looked at him and said, 'Okay, I give up. Where's the ship?'
😋I recommend the following novel to you: 1. The bad news was that the protagonist had transmigrated into a world full of terrifying monsters. The good news was that he had a cheat that could level up his skills by killing monsters. This was a novel that emphasized strategy and intelligence. 2. " No Traitors, No Demons " was a fantasy novel about a dynasty. It focused on the plot and brainpower. It was suitable for readers who were tired of slapping their faces. 3. " Playing the villain: The female protagonist eavesdrops at the beginning "-a novel about urban supernatural powers. The protagonist transmigrated into the novel world and couldn't help but complain about the brainless plot and the female protagonist's setting. However, he didn't expect the female protagonist to be able to hear his thoughts. A novel with a little anti-routine was also very brainpower. I hope you like my recommendation.😗
😋I recommend "Psychic Beauty: Abducting a Godly Doctor to Become a Husband". The protagonist Yi Yi pretended to be a pig to eat a tiger and bullied her old enemy. She was full of tricks and was clever and eccentric. She had been reborn from danger many times, but only in front of that stinky Godly Doctor did she break in a second! If you like smart and witty female protagonists, then don't miss this ancient romance novel! I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
