Detective Agency of the Bizarre

A door unfolded before him. Evil thrived, and whispers spilled from within. The resentful compound eyes flickered and vanished, the presence longing to burst out was blocked inside, and the alluring murmurs echoed in the ear. The sticky, pink brain mumbled something.

Well, a key golden rule is fairness. The author has to play fair with the reader. All the necessary clues for solving the mystery should be available in the story. Take the works of Agatha Christie, for instance. She always provides enough information within the narrative. Then, there's the rule of misdirection. The author often creates false leads to keep the reader guessing. This adds to the suspense. And of course, there's the importance of a satisfying conclusion. The solution to the mystery should make sense and tie up all the loose ends.

In golden age detective fiction, a significant rule is the use of red herrings. These are false clues that mislead the detective and the reader alike. They add to the complexity of the mystery. Additionally, the detective is usually an outsider in the community where the crime takes place. This gives them an objective perspective. The stories also tend to follow a certain structure. There's the introduction of the crime, the investigation by the detective, and finally the grand reveal of the solution. The detective's character is often well - developed, with a set of unique quirks and skills that help them in their investigations.

You can analyze the structure of detective stories. Look at how the mystery is introduced, how the clues are laid out, and how the solution is presented. This way, you'll get a better understanding of the rules. For instance, in many detective novels, the first few chapters set up the mystery and introduce the main characters. Then, as the story progresses, more and more clues are revealed in a somewhat systematic way.

Is there really someone who can't be the queen?

Transmigration was the pinnacle. His father was the prime minister of the current dynasty, and his mother came from a family that was as rich as a country. On the day he transmigrated, he became the empress. Although he read novels about palace affairs, he was still on tenterhooks when he really faced them. What kind of harem could this personality of hers create? "Don't think that you can laugh for long. I'll definitely win in the end!" "But when I was the Crown Princess, you were only a Secondary Consort. You had already lost from the start." Su Luoyao's casual words made her so angry that she vomited blood. "The Empress is weak and incompetent. Her virtue is not obvious. She is difficult to take on a great responsibility!" "Then please allow me to reorganize the court and let everyone see if I am worthy or not." After that, it was said that the Empress had tidied up the rear court in an orderly manner and established many new systems. Everyone in the rear court was convinced. At this moment, he was still wondering if he could use this woman who had suddenly changed into a knife in his hand. He did not expect that he would become a jar of old vinegar in the future.
