I'm honestly not sure if I liked this show or not. As probably everyone else, I came here for Kuanghan and stuck till the end for him, so in a way, it wasn't a waste of my time. He was as great as always, and seeing his charming Wu Minghan again was very fun to watch too. Though I don't know if this is my bias talking, but I feel like he didn't have that much screen time considering he is listed as the ML.

But anyway, the story was okay. It was interesting enough to keep me watching till the end, but there's still something I'm not sure what it is that didn't let me enjoy it fully. There aren't many comments and no other reviews to help me put into words what I felt watching it, so I will have to try to figure it out later.

The FL's rushed background did its job to show the viewer why she acts the way she does, so I guess it was also not unwelcome. Her bickering with Minghan was also fun to watch, especially because of the tiny hint that they could like each other. But I still didn't fully like her.

The other leads and extended cast were also okay, but I think the reason why I didn't exactly like this show and the characters was its grotesque nature. And no, I don't mean the gore scenes of the murders and corpses. I'm actually fine watching those. Funnily enough, the junkie cop clipping his nails at the precinct made me more uncomfortable than all the killings and corpse shots. I guess that's the purpose of this kind of shows, but maybe that's why this one didn't work for me.

Plot-wise it was also just okay. Someone said that you enjoy it more if you speak Chinese (I suppose to understand the idioms and mistakes better). But since my Chinese is very limited, I can't really form an opinion about this. But I liked the fact that the story was cohesive and it was well resolved. I mean, there wasn't much more to resolve, but it at least made sense till the end.

Anyway, I think overall it's not the worse show you'll ever watch, but it's also nothing remarkable. It's just an okay show. If you're coming for Kuanghan, you'll definitely have some of your time's worth back. But if you're looking for something random to watch, I'd say just skip it because there are many other better things to spend your time watching.
