Chapter 1: The Mysterious Murder

Detective Claire Hamilton sat at her desk, sipping her coffee as she stared at the case file in front of her. It had been a long day in the bustling City of Horington, and she was ready to dive into a new investigation. The murder of a prominent businessman had shaken the city, and Claire was determined to find the truth.

As she flipped through the pages of the file, she couldn't help but notice the name of her partner, Detective Lily Smith. Lily was known for her sharp instincts and attention to detail, and Claire was grateful to have her by her side. They made a formidable team, and together, they had solved some of the city's most perplexing cases.

Joseph Vaxson, a seasoned detective with a knack for uncovering hidden clues, joined Claire and Lily at their desks. He had a reputation for his unconventional methods, but his results spoke for themselves. Daisy Gomes, a forensic expert, entered the room with a bag of evidence. Her expertise in analyzing crime scenes and gathering crucial information would prove invaluable in this investigation.

Jonathan Jones, a tech-savvy detective, walked in with his laptop in hand. He was known for his ability to dig up information from the darkest corners of the internet. With his skills, he could uncover secrets that no one else could.

The team gathered around a whiteboard, where they mapped out the details of the case. The victim, a wealthy businessman named Robert Anderson, had been found dead in his luxurious penthouse. The cause of death was a single gunshot wound to the chest. The murder weapon was missing, and there were no witnesses to the crime.

As they brainstormed, a name caught Claire's attention: Mr. Harry Canahan, also known as Mr. X. He was rumored to be the head of a powerful mafia organization that operated in the city. Claire knew that if anyone had a motive to kill Robert Anderson, it would be Mr. Canahan.

The team divided their tasks, with Claire and Lily focusing on interviewing the victim's family and associates, while Joseph and Daisy examined the crime scene for any overlooked evidence. Jonathan delved into the dark web, searching for any connections between Mr. Canahan and the murder.

Days turned into weeks as the investigation unfolded. Each chapter of their investigation revealed new leads, unexpected twists, and dangerous encounters. The team faced threats from Mr. Canahan's henchmen, who would stop at nothing to protect their boss.

Chapter by chapter, the pieces of the puzzle started to come together. The team discovered a hidden network of corruption and deceit that reached far beyond the murder of Robert Anderson. They realized that Mr. Canahan's influence extended to the highest levels of the city's government and law enforcement.

As the tension mounted, Claire and her team found themselves in a race against time to expose the truth and bring Mr. Canahan to justice.

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!
