This drama can be seen as a litmus test for reviewers on this site. It has a very popular and trendy enough actor with one of his best performances yet, but the rating isn't that different from other dramas in the related genre on this site.
You could say even someone like Wang Hedi isn't enough to give a high 8 rating to a drama like this.
I’m Didi big fan. So sad to see this drama not that popular 😩
At least in China people are watching it heavily to where even Universities are screening it. But people on this site only like pretty man-woman dramas or costume dramas.
as a thriller and detective fan, this feels more like slice of life (of a police) ft. some thrillers. First ep…
Honestly if you only look at a mystery drama for the 'plot' that's more of a problem with your personal problem.
As someone who just started episode 14, I would say that besides the overarching mystery; some of the best parts of this story are the downtimes and the character building moments, especially the scenes with Ran Fangxu and He Yuanhang.
And yes, Wang Hedi's acting has been great, same with Pan Yueming, but those are just a few reasons and nowhere near the only ones.

and i love whd, i've watched almost everything he's in, but him in this is very... irritating? his voice/delivery…
His voice perfectly fits the character. In the 90s, Ran Fangxu is supposed to be an introverted, nerdy yet righteous and brave young man. Nothing is ever as simple as 'serious' or 'funny' (it's kind of disrespectful to reduce a character to either of those things anyways).
Because Guardians of Dafeng season 1 is my best chinese drama
