Bridge Tower 27-28
  • The counselor saying that Mihuhu's plan only makes sense if she's buying time for MURDER... I mean, we know that Chen Xi is in the suitcase, but still... Oh no...

  • I'm glad we have an explicit answer to water ghost lore things (ie. which part was added for the sake of the novel) but there's no way I would have known! But man, total goosebumps between the current plot and the very first chapter of this entire book. 鬼杀掉人→ 人变成鬼 → 鬼变成人 ;_____;

  • 紙片人 shamelessly [profile] _ing Miao Miao's account and demanding answers... and clocking Miao Xiaowa as not being the real deal... lol

  • Miao Xiaowa coming to her own deductions based on her own PoV and more personal relationship with the text + author. :')

  • I love the way we get the omniscient PoV of WHY this very serious cop is disclosing case-related info and personal conjecture to internet randos 😂 Crime dramas SHOULD have an anxious little sister character who takes over the officer’s phone as an explanation for unprofessional conduct. 😂

  • "對一切都無能爲力的厲鬼走投無路，只剩下吹滅燭火的力氣。" DDDD:

  • Okay, was LXS waiting for the dad to show up? Not sure what the plan is here (we’d only just uncovered motive in ch27, which was crushing), but interesting if so!

  • Hiring the moving company so the dad would know where they are! Smart!

  • The part where LXS is compared to a piece of gum. :(

  • Wait Dragon Girl knew LXS??? Ohh?

  • Is the last user (Daguanren) gonna be the only truly random passerby or is that character also plot relevant ???

  • One thing that has been confusing me because of the swapped storylines is Zhang Ting... When they "revealed" Uncle Z to be a Zhang, I was convinced all of this was related to her suicide... But we've established that Uncle Z is actually Chen Xi's stepdad who doesn't seem involved in any of Chen dad's crimes...

  • V. curious to see how LXS's plan will play out, especially since it doesn't feel like Chen dad actually cares about his bio-daughter in an emotional way. Is he coming because he also knows that her death will bring attention to him? I guess we'll find out!

    I love reading your reactions to this story. I love no clue what's it like. It's like piecing a puzzle too xD

    I'm glad you're able to come out of it relatively unspoiled because even I don't know what's happening. XD

    Your spoiler text are always so wild. When you're done, I'm gonna try to write a summary of what I THINK this story is about, and then you can laugh at it xD

    xD We can compare notes! I've been vicariously osmosing through A's spoilers and can't even make a decent guess at what's going on 🤣

    The suitcase ;________;

    "只剩下吹滅燭火的力氣" ;________;

    I really liked the moment when Miao Miao realized how Miao Xiaowa instinctively shrunk back from her unhappiness/anger :(, and chose to rub her little sister's head instead :')

    大官人 and 小龙女... XD XD;

    I wanna say more but gahhh it's all spoilers, so I'll just wait for you to get to 29 8)

    I'm still hoping there's a chance that no one is in the suitcase because we haven't actually seen what's inside it haha.

    I love all of Miao Miao's little head rubs!!! They're heartbreaking but it's nice to see something mend in the midst of everything ;_;

    Crime dramas SHOULD have an anxious little sister character who takes over the officer’s phone as an explanation for unprofessional conduct.

    This would improve the logic of the average crime drama considerably!
