First and foremost I'm a super mystery genre fan, so of course my opinion will be biased 😀 This book is highly addictive and the main characters are superb. There are very few good detective novels out there, that's why, all the more reason to rave about this book. I simply enjoy the whole premise and what the characters bring to the table. The story arcs are the main highlights. And of course I'm shipping the main characters, but thats obvious 😂

Haaa. Finished reading to the latest chapter and I'm stuck on a cliff again. Amazing. This is only the second time I've binged an original like this. This is a hidden gem and I'm surprised and pissed at how underpopular it is. What are you waiting for? Go start reading. In case you weren't convinced here's the review: Writing- 5/5 Reads like a published novel. Nothing to say here. It is a bit fast paced at parts and less detailed than your usual case-solving style novel. Written very well nonetheless. Very easy to imagine and everything is described well even with fewer details. Plot- 5/5 Amazing so far. I usually end up predicting a lot of the plot and planting my flags, but here I had a clue in the middle of a few arcs maybe at most. Unpredictable plots but not annoyingly convoluted. Characters- 6/5 THIS IS WHAT DID IT FOR ME. Among the best characterisation I've seen on this site. Not just the main characters, but all of them. The three things I loved the most in this novel were 1. Levi 2. Sam 3. The interactions between Levi and Sam Levi's monologues, dialogues, behaviour are all very fun to read. The romance(?) is really well done. Exactly the kind of romance I like. If I had to give a comparision, it's somewhat similar to Hachiman and Yukino in Oregairu or Jo Minjoon and Kaya Lotus in God of Cooking. If you are sick of those CEO romance novels then give this unique take a read. Overall, must read. I've read 100s of originals on this sight and this is in my top 2 favourites. Suggestions for the author: There's nothing much I can say here. 1. In the starting few chapters there are some spelling/ grammar errors.(Very few of them hardly noticeable) Some places have comma instead of period. One place had slick blood instead of slick blonde. Couple places have wrong tense, wrong gender. I think you can fix it if you read it once :) 2. For time skips within a chapter, you can leave a gap of few more lines or draw a line with stars ******************************************************** like this. It helps keep the imagination steady. Like seriously...there's no major flaws in the novels and I can only pick on things like this :p Please keep up the good work.

Honestly whenever I review a original on this site/app I usually start with stating how rare it is for me to read a original and let alone leave a review on one, and then go on a long rant about how most originals here are not good etc. Today I'll skip that to say that is truly one of the few great original novels on this site. I was recently craving some detective novels after I watched The Mentalist for the 4th time (only till the red john) So instead of buying a popular printed book I decided to find one on Novelupdateș. Com. There were few Crazy Detective Netherworld investigator Genius detective Super detective on a fictional world But I didn't like the protagonist's of the first two. I wanted someone more like Sherlock Holmes or Patrick Jane from The Mentalist. The Genius detective is actually not bad And then there's Super Detective. This I actually read all the available chapters on machine translation. Definitely not a detective story, well atleast not how you'd expect but a good Marvel fanfiction. Although first few chapters are pretty bad. Anyway during that time I came across "100 Ways to Solve a Murder" Honestly if it was any other time I would not have clicked on it at all. Because of how rarely I read originals. But it came to me just at the right time. Like it was fate. I had very low expectations and Although the reviews here did give me some hope. And I have to say those reviews are not wrong. It is a very good story. the author does take some inspiration from Sherlock Holmes for his character but really almost all detective shows or books are in some aspects. Just keep reading it. At first it might seem slow Or just some romance novel (even tho romance isn't bad either) I'm not a professional critique so I don't think I'll be able to give detail reviews why I like it. But I'll just say what I know First the Grammar, which is very good, at least to me. I have a hard time immersing myself in originals here because of how many I find awkward sentences or wrong grammars. Here I had no problem at all. Second the characters. honestly if I hadn't read the story at all and someone described the male protagonists to me I'd probably wouldn't read the story at all. But here it fits and it works. I like the main characters. I rarely or even never read romance stories. But when I read only first chapters of the books which comes off more as a romance than a detective book I still read on. Mostly because of the characters. If I have too say, it is both a detective novel and a romance novel. Writing Style and Storytelling : I don't how to distinguish between bad and good But from what I have read I realy liked the style and I like the storytelling and that's all that matters. Anyway I would recommend giving this a try to everyone. It is definitely worth reading. I recommend reading the first volume (about 70 chapters? Before a review)

The Legendary Actor

After getting the final relief from his past sufferings, Chu Jiashu was given a second chance when he found himself in the body of an infant from an aristocratic family of Hall. Now, nothing is going to stop him from achieving his long-cherished dream of acting. Enter Renly Hall, a Hollywood miracle of 21st century. Note from the translator - from me, that is. "Honestly, I get frustrated too much when I look at countless subpar novels being translated day after day. So much human resources wasted. I kinda get what Qidian International is doing, but it is just, I can't bear the notion of having so many wonderful novels that belong to the Chinese platform to be left in the dust. English-speaking community should know of the existence of such brilliant works, and more so, they should enjoy them. The novel is by a Chinese dude "Qiqi Jia D Mao Mao", whatever that might mean, who wrote several showbiz novels (he is probably the best at what he is doing). It is not my work, I'm just a dude who, with the help of two free machine translators (DeepL and good ol' Google), can show you a hidden gem. Wait, you said machine translators? Sadly, yes. I can't speak Chinese at all, but fortunately, this novel is structured in a machine-translation-friendly way, like really so. Most of the time context is saved. I'm just polishing the edges with my superb (not really) editing skills, so you all chaps have a splendid experience with this good staff indeed. Actually, you can go and read machine translation or just wait for my updates. Up to you dudes and dudies. And then I go away...blewb, blewb, blewb, blewb, blewb....." P.S. "I am a knife for a hire. So the managers of the site can employ me for this novel, but please don't remove it. Oh, please, I'm begging you on my knees. You guys won't even think of translating this novel, and here I am "translating" it for free,.... well for the time being, that is mwahahaha!" P.S. for P.S. This novel does not contain the following: Harem, definitely not NTR, stupid characters, NTR again (God, I hate NTR (secretly beating the meat for a one in hentai)) But this novel contains: Great storyline, relatable characters, realistic situations, very fun moments as well as tear jerking ones (so much so, you will find your throat hella sore from crying all the time), surprise after surprise for the decisions that author went with. You will have a good time indeed WARNING! READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION!
