Reasoning works are divided into many genres, and you have seen a lot of suspense reasoning works, and I have always thought that a good story is the core of a good suspense reasoning work.
Some people say that reading speculative works feels like a contest with the author, to see whether he has found the decisive evidence first or whether the author has hidden the answer to the end!

A truly subversion of the detective novel; an Agatha Christie-esque murder feast;
A mysterious nursery rhyme, transformed into a life-threatening symphony;
Two parallel worlds mirroring each other, deriving double evil;
Are the chaotic characters in the book leaping into reality? Or is reality already written a fatalistic script?
When I first came to know this work, I found that this work accounted for a large part of the bookstore's bestsellers, and it was also a stunning speculative work discovered last year.
It must be mentioned that the author of this book, Anthony Horowitz, who is a Sherlock Holmes expert, is the only writer in the history of the Conan Doyle Property Society to authorize the continuation of the Story of Sherlock Holmes. His imitation ability is outstanding, and he can also control grandma's style, and this work also carries a strong grandma style.
The model of the case within the case, which can also be called the Russian matryoshka model, makes people immersed in it and feels more shocked after watching it.

A young man preparing to get married went to a house on Grusvino Street to meet his future father-in-law. He drank a glass of wine handed to him by his father-in-law, and as a result he immediately fainted and was unconscious. When he woke up, he saw that his father-in-law had a feather arrow in his chest!
There was only his fingerprint on the feather arrow, and the doors and windows of the room were all locked from the inside.
From the time the young man fainted to the time he woke up, it was only fifteen minutes. If he is indeed innocent, the case is undoubtedly an "impossible" crime in the secret room.
It is a classic courtlike mystery novel, and the author of the book, John Dixon Carr, has been called the "King of Chamber of Secret Reasoning", along with Agatha Christie and Ellery Quinn, has been called the "Golden Age Big Three".
This is also a chamber of secrets work, but the war of words above the courtroom in this work is far more exciting than the mystery of the chamber, and the elements of the lost and court are well unified in this work.
The depictions of lawyers, jurors, and prosecutors can reflect the glue of the confrontation in the courtroom, the prosecution and the prosecution are a pair of sworn enemies, and this courtroom duel is also a duel in pursuit of justice.

A massacre woven with lies, a "Truman world" that disguises the interests of all parties, this is a contest of justice and life.
Scott Douro, a former president of the American Writers Association, is a lawyer novelist who has worked as a prosecutor, and is known as one of the three masters of speculative fiction in contemporary American courts along with Chad North Patterson and John Grisham. While reading his work, I can deepen my understanding of the American judicial system, and his other work, "The Innocent Sinner", is also a classic of court-style reasoning that I like.
The story is led by "a massacre", and the final answer needs to be revealed by ourselves.
The truth is not as simple as others tell themselves, and they often need to think more and think again. The truth is often in the fog.

On a snowy Christmas Eve, there were one after another murders in the secret room! However, all of them have perfect alibi, and the only one suspected is the doll walking around in the snow and wind!
The evil killing intent lurks in the unbalanced leaning house, and it is gradually spreading...
The murderer did not kill for the sake of killing, but had a deep motive.
Maybe Shimada wants us to choose to forgive.
In real life, we must also be kind to the people around us and do not easily hurt others.

Hidden in the silent mountain forest is another mysterious building designed by Aoji Nakamura--- Clock Museum.
There are hundreds of different clocks in the museum, pointing to the same moment in incredible ways and moving at equal speed; outside the museum stands a clock tower without hands, and its bells have never sounded.

However, they did not expect that the three-day isolated psychic meeting would turn into a crazy killing moment. As time flew by, they fell one by one, and death's hands finally cut through the grim dial...

A masterpiece that can be read in one sitting, it is a deep shock after reading it!

Aoyagi is forced to flee, and gradually discovers that someone has already laid a trap with great care:
Two years ago, when he was a courier, he became extremely popular for saving female celebrities, which became the reason for being framed; half a year ago, threatening phone calls continued to harass the courier company, and he was forced to resign; two months ago, he was framed as a sex wolf while riding a car; on the day of the crime, tv surveillance video showed that people who resembled him bought a remote control plane; the next day, the police announced that he had called to admit that he was the murderer.
Aoyagi was speechless and fell under siege.
One publisher commented on the work as "very clever and impressive, whether it is foreshadowing, dialogue, or the control of the timeline." ”
This work reminds me of the movie "Enemy of the Nation", but it can better highlight the strength of an ordinary person in a desperate situation, the bond of friendship, with innocence, trust, and survival as the core, filling the gap in people's hearts.
The film adaptation of this work is also not to be missed, and the wonderful performance of Sakai Masato makes people fall in love with this role!

Kaga did not want to hastily close the case and visited a large number of people. The truth that was gradually revealed made him feel a cold chill.
This is the least well-known of Keigo Higashino's classic works, and I think it is the best of Higashino Tenno's reasoning works!

Eighteen years ago, a bizarre bombing case caused the death of the girlfriend of criminal police officer Luo Fei and his friend Yuan Zhibang at the same time; eighteen years later, the bomber appeared on the Internet again, issued a death penalty solicitation post in the name of Eumenides (the goddess of revenge), and netizens voted out the object he wanted to kill.
Anyone who receives a "death notice" will be brutally murdered by a mysterious killer according to the predicted date. Even if the victim calls the police, the police lay a tight net and closely protect the victim, and the mysterious killer can still effortlessly blade the other party under the heavy ambush.

Is there any clue to crack the seemingly flawless modus operandi? This contest of IQ will end with whose victory it will be...
The strongest masterpiece of the "Criminal Police Luo Fei" series!
The image of criminal police officer Luo Fei is enriched step by step through Zhou Haohui's previous works "Murder Painting", "Ghost Hope Slope" and "Uncanny Valley". In "Darkman", Luo Fei's image is more three-dimensional! But to fully feel the story and understand the real appearance of the criminal police officer Luo Fei, please pick up the book in your hand and feel the power of the original text.
In the Darkman Trilogy, Zhou Haohui's discussion of human nature, the interpretation of criminal investigation and solving cases, and the thinking of the motives of crimes are all meticulous and three points.
As a web drama, "The Dark One" is all the rage on the Internet, and it has also set off a wave of suspense and reasoning dramas, and has also led to many excellent dramas such as "Yu Sin", "Forensic Qin Ming", "Undocumented Crime", "White Night Pursuit" and so on.
Someone said of his work this way: "This book is like a mirror-covered hall, tempting you to explore its winding passages. It's filled with doors to literary traps, deeply hidden staircases, and unexpected turns. You'll be immersed in it, having trouble breathing, but eager to read more. ”

Isn't truth important to reasoning? For the sake of justice, we should seek the truth even more!
I hate the sentence "Justice may be late, but justice will come back", justice should not be late. The phrase "Justice delayed is justice denied", I prefer the literal translation, "Justice that is late, justice has not yet come".

An arbitration case, a traffic accident case, around two formulas that can bring great benefits, the scene is being staged.

A very good domestic social mystery novel. There are not many works with lawyers as the protagonists in China, and Haiyan's "What Salvation, You and My Love" is also a very good work.
Seeing the ending, it makes people chill, and they feel that everything is so regrettable.

The author Chen Haoji, an insider in the network, can be said to be a superior work of modern social reasoning. Some crimes are no longer just superficial.
Remembering a Japanese drama I had seen before, "Three Year A Class", the teacher said to his students:
Your casual few words will make people get a false stigma. He himself, his family, his friends, could all be hurt by it. What you have to do is something that you can't get back in the future.
Before making certain moves that affect others, ask everyone to think about it before making a judgment.

He lived old enough, the cancer was terminal, and the insurance after death was more important than his life;
He, who was dumb when he was born, never uttered a word in his life, but regarded his stepson as the last goodwill of the world;
She had been beautiful and valuable, married to someone who could not speak in old age, and she finally did not have to obey anymore;
She committed suicide, with the children in her belly, who together did not combine enough to understand the malice around her;
There are many things she can give up, such as money, the future, kindness, freedom, and even dignity, except for one person;
She was supposed to live a happy and conventional life, but she kept running away because of his murder...
These stories revolve around Xu Jiaming's short life, or rather, Xu Jiaming's story revolves around these people.
These six stories before the age of thirty have spelled together Xu Jiaming's life.
Put your favorite one at the end and recommend it to everyone.
This book is the first work I have seen Jiang Feng. After that, I also watched "A Murder For Him", and the plot let me experience the peak circuit.
"A Piece of White Flow" is the first book I strongly recommended in the reading group I joined five years ago.
At the beginning, I am reminded of "The Life of the Rejected Pine Nut", when the story begins, the protagonist is no longer alive.
The narrative is restrained and stoic, and bitterness and hope coexist. Sometimes I feel like I'm watching around, and sometimes I feel like I'm about to become Xu Jiaming. The time in the book has passed paragraph after paragraph, but I can't guess what is going to happen in the next paragraph. Although it seems to be a complete story from which section, several stories spell out a relatively complete Xu Jiaming.
After watching a section, I want to stop, think about it, change it to my own words, how will I do it, whether I will have that kind of life, or a similar life, meet similar people, or meet such people, as friends, lovers, or just meet people in the bar who talk for a moment and feel familiar.
I especially like a sentence in the book, "I want to paint happiness, draw sadness, paint forgetfulness, and paint never forget.".
One book, six stories, pieced together Xu Jiaming's life.
May your heart hurt Xu Jiaming as much as your heart hurts you.
Jiang Feng wrote in the afterword to the book, "I don't know others, just myself, in the past ten years, there are always a few stories echoing in my head, as a writer, all I can do is to pick out the right one at the right time, knock on the computer line by line, try to hope that this is better than what I have always conceived, and try to hope that you will like it." ”
I always feel that the core of a good work is to tell a good story. Through it, you can learn something about yourself, whether it is learning to reconcile with yourself, learning to reconcile with the world, or giving people the courage to face the near and distant future.
Although there are more and more things in film and television now, I still love the works formed by those words, and I have always believed that literature will never die.
