The plot and storyline is interesting. The update is okay I guess. The length of the chapter is something that is need to be improved. It is kinda slow pace which works for novels that has a mystery genre. Writing style and quality is great. All in all a great novel to read.

If you found someone you were familiar with, it would just be a coincidence. Or rather, there was another person in the parallel world, but their life trajectories were different. Of course, if they were exactly the same, it would be a coincidence. From this point of view, they were not the same person.
