Explosion Case
Ok, I get it. The most challenging part of criminal investigation is when you have no clue to pursue. Qin Chuan's original inference was actually correct: the explosion was a form of armed robbery -- but how do you find the culprits when there are no witnesses and no surveillance footage? If it weren't for the remote control that was likely dropped when the culprit ran away in fear, this case might have remained unsolved.
I still enjoy the interrogation/confession scenes. It's interesting to see the different reactions of the different culprits. How some have seemingly lost their humanness, while others awaken to a gruesome reality when it's too late.
Romance Break!
The best romance are often times in dramas that are not romance centered, and throughout the show I have greatly enjoyed the snippets of interaction between our poor Chief Commander Qin and his wife. Qin always looks so happy and bright when he's speaking to her, and their exchanges are so matter-of-fact and sweet without effort 🥰
By the way, Qin's wife is so pretty!!
And how he watches her quietly...
A rare moment of relaxation for Chief Commander Qin with a \"fish tank filter\" 😂
Psych Testing
Didn't expect to get a small lesson in psych testing (lie detection) and found it quite interesting actually. Once again this drama manages to expand on and present to its audience in the most grounded and plain way what other crime dramas might either gross over or exaggerate on. And it's surprisingly working -- perhaps because I appreciate it's honesty?
And lastly -- we are almost at Ep 30 so 10 episodes left... and I am wondering if the 2nd ML is actually wrongly labelled as the 2nd ML because he's still not showed up 😅
If you are currently watching this, I am looking forward to hear your thoughts and impressions!
