I suspect Hu is the criminal

I think he'd prefer not to.

Who's to say you had no choice? if a pre mortality exists then perhaps you did choose and had all recollection blocked for this 'play through' of life. If the soul exists and experiences eternity I can well imagine it seeking something/anything new or different

Of course it's back as a free to read... I'll try skipping through the chapters so it thinks I've read it. Maybe then it'll stop popping up.

I wasn't able to follow your logic. His body's defenses are strengthened. This would be like the material composition. He's sturdier but not stronger. Consider how he travels. The story makes a point that it's defense and not strength which this scene counteracts. It's inconsistent

It's good. Decent story and decent writing

I'm not really interested. this book has popped up frequently in my free to read. it just doesn't interest me. You might like it or might not. I just want it to stop taking up an opportunity for me to read something I'm actually interested in.

I didn't get past the first chapter. The writing was just too bad for me. Either the writer isn't good with English or the translation is extra sub par. Could be a good story but I'm not willing to read it as it is currently written.

Make sure you don't get robbed.

So it can fall out and get lost during the night?
