On Christmas Eve, if you receive an invitation card for the Christmas Ball, it must be full of excitement; but if you receive a crazy "killing trailer"... That's really shocking!
Today, Little K is going to recommend a book that is particularly suitable for you- the novel "The Devil's Christmas" by the Japanese mystery novel master writer Masashi Yokomichi.
It is worth mentioning that Yokomizu Masashi's works have been out of print for many years, and now this edition is exclusively authorized Chinese, faithful to the original work of Kadokawa Shoten in Japan, without any deletion! In addition to this, I have summarized the following must-see reasons:
1
The author of this book, Masashi Yokomizu, is a master figure who, along with Edogawa, has pioneered a new field of Japanese speculative fiction. His works are an excellent example of Benge's reasoning, with a strong Japanese flavor, which takes the level of Japanese speculative fiction to a whole new level.
2
In his creation, Yokomizu Masashi abandons the popular unrealistic plot and condenses the various typical elements of speculative fiction in a purely realistic way. The story has ups and downs, the reasoning process is intricate, it is difficult to distinguish between true and false, but there are clues hidden in it, and the feeling of vaguely guessing who the murderer is and not being sure pushes you to keep looking at it.

This is a short story, the story structure is compact, the plot is one link after another, it is particularly easy to read, and it can be read in an hour or two. Perfect for reading the last article when you are relaxing
As the name suggests, this is a murder that took place at Christmas. In this story, detective Kazunosuke Kaneda meets with the female agent of a jazz singer in his residence, but when it is time for the meeting, When Kaneda Kazusuke returns, he finds that the female agent has died in his residence. Who would dare to kill someone in the great detective's house?
And the calendar of December 20 was also torn to December 25, as if to preview the date of the next murder, openly challenging the book to the famous detective!
Since the date has been announced, something must have happened, and in the Christmas party, the devil did appear again...
1. Reader evaluation:
@Amazon Buyer
The book of Yokogou Masashi is good and worth collecting!
@Be**9
The story is well conceived and reasoned.
@Anne*
Following the untrimmed detective Kaneda, Kaneda saw many incredible cases and peeked into many unfathomable hearts. Gradually addicted, each Kaneda detective collection must be collected in the pocket and seen.
Although this book is already a late work of Henggou, the master's creative level has not decreased. "The Devil's Christmas" is a room of secrets killing, and "Female Monster" is a poison needle killing. And my favorite "Misty Mountain" is a serial case of "praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches in the back". The master's reasoning is meticulous, making the reader nervous and guessing together, and sighing together after the truth is revealed.
@Rose*
Even now, Kaneda's series of portrayals of people's hearts are really not outdated or conventional.
@Ei**ing
Starting from junior high school, I began to read the first Kaneda Kazunosuke series and began to become a lover of detective novels, so watching this series again for many years, I still feel that this set is my favorite.
2. Author Profile
Masashi Yokomizu (1902-1981)
Japan's most important speculative novelist, the masterpiece "Kaneda Ichi Detective Collection" is the only model of speculative fiction that can compete with "Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection". Won the 1st Japan Mystery Writers Association Award for "Honjin Murder Incident".
The work is based on traditional intrinsic reasoning, the surface atmosphere is strange, but it completely abandons the popular unrealistic plot, condenses the various typical elements of speculative fiction in the creation with pure realism, and integrates the unique human customs of Japanese society, which raises the level of Japanese speculative fiction to a new height.
Representative works include "Eight Tombs Village", "Prison Gate Island", "The Devil Blows the Flute", "Inuyasha Family", "Devil's Colorful Ball Song", etc., and the "Yokogou Boom" set off in Japan has not receded for decades and continues to this day.
