This was one of the most fun shows that I have seen this year. The story is quite a basic episodic murder mystery show nothing really new is added to the genre but what it does do it does very well. I like to describe it as Sherlock meets Murder She Wrote meets Scooby Doo. What the story does really well is that while it is basic it has very little fuller (unlike many Chinese drama) and transitions well from case to case and the cases themselves are well paced and don't drag. The downside of this show for me was that the romance was a little forced and out of nowhere for me, I would have preferred if they kept this show focused more on the friendship of these characters. Also the female lead was a but annoying in my opinion but her character got better as the show went on. The acting was get Hu Ti Tian is a delight in this role and he really come alive as this character, he really is the highlight. Leon Zhang also does and amazing job. Honestly, if you enjoy mysteries this is a show I highly recommend
