These chapters were a lot of fun to read, and I'm loving all the bits and pieces that made their way into the drama either directly or in modified form.
Yes, me too! I enjoyed these chapters so much. :-)
But I'm definitely glad that he's noticing things about Shen Wei, even if I'm still wondering why he's so apparently complacent about his own conclusion that Shen Wei probably isn't human, since he has zero idea what Shen Wei's agenda is ...
Maybe it's because he concluded that in conjunction with Shen Wei seeming to be deeply in love with him. And also, like, Shen Wei hasn't done anything bad or threatening. ZYL must have a sense of him as a good, decent person. So why worry? Especially given there isn't, like in the drama, all the suspicious activity around multiple crime scenes.
The little conversation between him and Shen Wei, where he sort of confronts him but also patiently waits him out, is so good! I really enjoyed that.
Yeah, I really like that he's not pushing too hard.
Because I immediately realised I'd seen that name on the map Chu Shuzhi has in the drama:
Oh, that's so cool. And yes, agreed about ZYL having done the research in the novel, vs the drama. Maybe in the drama they just wanted to give CSZ more to do?
And seriously, I really enjoyed him getting Zhao Yunlan with it. (In the drama, of course, he hits Chu Shuzhi, but then in the novel, those two have barely interacted so far.)
In the drama, doesn't he get ZYL as well? I thought that was where CSZ's thumbs up comes from. *checks* Yep, ep 10, 16:57. And Chu Shuzhi says, "I really haven't thought that the first one to have the guts to hit the Master of the Guardians would be you!" 我真没想到 咱们特调处里第一个混蛋领导动手的 竟然是你 :-)
