A bunch of plot irrelevant action/adventure sequences led to a deus ex machina + tragedy. The last few paragraphs were a forced undo for a contrived 'happy' (happier than the previous tragedy anyway) ending.
Whatever was inside the main black box was never revealed.
Han Fei became a repeatedly betrayed hero who begged his enemies and doubters to please believe in him so could be more able to sacrifice himself for them.
His ghost family and friends were rarely featured in the last 300 chapters. The "romance" consisted of flirting a couple times, getting married and then apparently forgetting they got married, and sporadic 'what Han Fei likes me?!' between Evil Soul and Xu Qin.[collapse] The worst parts of this novel were Spoiler
Orphan 002, who has super intelligence and repeatedly attempts to kill/harms Han Fei. Han Fei blindly follows 002's lead, sometimes even against his own ideals and morals. Han Fei essentially becomes a near robotic system (002) s*ave that does whatever he's told without ANY reasonable explanation.
[collapse]SpoilerLast chapter quote: Night enveloped the night. The doors at Immortal Pharma closed after Han Fei entered it. Only a limited number of people could enter through special methods.
Han Fei trusted Xin Lu Police a lot, but even Li Xue was told to wait outside the lab door. Li Xue wanted to be there, but her superior told her that handing Han Fei over was part of the 'deal'.
"We've done everything we could. We leave the rest to fate."
This idiotic self sacrificing, no pragmatism at all protagonist 🤦♂️
[collapse] Old review at ch 168: SpoilerA wildly incompetent attempt to mimic My House of Horrors with some original plot points. If you read this expecting either quality or original writing you're going to be disappointed. Additionally, this isn't a horror story it's an action thriller.
