Lesson Response ::
Locked Room Murder Mystery I’ve read a few before, I didn’t have as much novelty as he did but the book was quite enjoyable. I hooked up to the book to find out what the motive for the first murder was. So the book is good from the beginning. Secondly, I like the Japanese background of that time more than the murder or mystery in this story. The Japanese houses, their room annexes, katna, their kimono, and their food etc. are floating in front of our eyes. I have enjoyed these things more in this book. And the biggest thing is that the thing that had the most impact throughout the book was Koto. Repeatedly it felt like I was hearing Koto’s captivating melody inside the book. Koto’s tune after the murder. The funny thing is that while reading the book, I have heard some cover music of Koto from YouTube. Not to mention Detective Kosuke Kindaichi. His intelligence is truly admirable. He has turned the whole story around. Over All is quite an enjoyable and good book.
The biggest problem with Japanese stories is the relationship between the characters and the characters, the translators have had the advantage of separating the characters in the first place, and have been able to put unnecessary names into the characters.
