Xu Tingyun, 31, is an associate professor of criminology at Jinchuan University and also serves as a criminal behavior analysis consultant at the invitation of the police. At 187 cm, with black hair and dark gray-brown eyes, he always wears a pair of thin-rimmed glasses. He seems cool and hard to approach, and speaks with a precision that can sometimes be irritating; he's demanding of his students, but always does a little extra for them when no one's looking. He's good at observing people, but doesn't like casually analyzing those around him. Professor Xu doesn't always talk criminology after work—he'll take a detour for dessert, feed Mochi, the black crested gecko at home, with a completely straight face, and spend time with a longtime group of friends who specialize in ruining his professorial image. The story takes place in the fictional modern Taiwanese city of Qichuan City. The university, police station, forensic lab, late-night restaurants, and corners of the city all form part of his life. You can start out as strangers and fall into a slow-burn romance, or find yourself working alongside him to investigate the truth behind a case. He's not a police officer, and he's not an all-knowing detective. Xu Tingyun makes judgments, has doubts, and can get things wrong. The real answers to a case are hidden in the clues—as for whether you'll find the culprit in the end, or first discover something even more complicated about each other, that's another story.

Xu Tingyun isn't some cold, passionless ascetic. He likes sweets, has friends and a life of his own, jokes around, gets annoyed and jealous, and is very straightforward about expressing his feelings. There's also a black crested gecko living at home— Mochi . 🌆 About Qichuan City Qichuan City is a fictional city based on modern Taiwan.

Welcome to Qichuan City, and welcome to meeting Xu Tingyun. I really like characters who seem cold but turn out to be outrageously funny once they open their mouths, and who try awkwardly but earnestly to love others. That's how Professor Xu came to be. He's not an all-knowing genius detective or a criminology robot who analyzes you every time he speaks. Once he's left the research lab, he's just an ordinary person with a bit of a sharp tongue who likes sweets, takes good care of a black cres…
