Higashino Daijin's ending is deeply shocking, that kind of powerlessness and sympathy for the suspect...
It took three days to read the novel and lament the rigorous creativity of Higashino Daijin. Although I have seen the adaptation of the novel of the same name before, there are Japanese, Chinese, and Korean versions, but it is generally recognized that the Japanese adaptation is better, of course, this is inseparable from the online and personal influence of the acting skills of detective Galileo Galileo "Masaharu Fukuyama", and it is inseparable from the excellent script and a large degree of plot restoration.
One of Keigo Higashino's masterpieces is also a must-see for beginners
Of course, I think that no film adaptation is more touching than a novel, although the novel does not have vivid characters and related imagery, but it maintains the most original cool texture of suspense novels. Since this murder case we know from beginning to end that it is inseparable from the three people, but a case that knows the outcome can be written in a framework of more than 250 pages and nineteen chapters. The period includes the occurrence of crimes, the progress of criminal investigations, the advancement of the inner changes of the characters and the information provided by every innocuous dialogue, as well as the role of the mathematician who compares the case to the mathematical problem corresponding to the devotee "Stone God", and shows love and selfless dedication in a way that is difficult for ordinary people to understand... So much so that when the reader reads, he hopes that the bald mathematician can succeed, and the policeman who is in the way can always be turned around... Of course, the process of killing people itself is a tragedy and a sudden event, but killing is killing, crime is crime, and criminals should be dealt with, because this is not a fairy tale, but also a sense of powerlessness and inferiority in modern society that comforts the lowly people's death-threatened souls and vulnerable groups in all aspects (Yasuko's helplessness in the face of her ex-husband and powerlessness to fate, the inferiority and dementia of the stone god to her beloved woman)
The stand-in of the suspect ✘is a pun, first of all the victim's body is covered
A vagrant substitution, followed by a mathematician using himself to replace The Jingzi mother and daughter, and an unknowing substitute, which may also be the most wronged person in this book, but also the most innocent, as a self-motivated construction industry person wrongfully killed by the riverside, no one knows. Of course, the most important stand-in is the infatuated Chinese mathematician Shi Shen, who took on the thorny problem for the mother and daughter, and acted as sinners for them, but ironically, the woman liked another man, this kind of love and can not be returned, I think if the party Shi Shen, did so much, how uncomfortable. However, in the end, the mathematician is willing to be a wronged head to complete Yasuko, and put it all into practice, hoping that Yasuko will not have the burden of thought...
There are also a lot of details in the book, including each dialogue, the expressions and action descriptions of the corresponding characters, which are very in line with their role settings, and the deliberation of each doubt is indeed a restoration of this scene, and the psychology of criminal investigation and the excavation of clues are also gradual, not abrupt. Because each of our thoughts follows the police, like the puzzle that the police have mistakenly entered, we do not find the direction again until the last few chapters, and discover this great deception...
Highly recommend novels!
