Story: The story is nothing especial. If you have been watching crime dramas you probably will thought this drama is predictable. This is a slow paced drama. Took me almost 3 weeks to complete this. I almost give up but since i love the first season so much i did not. I have some problems with the pacing and can't understand some scenes but it is my own lacking probably (too sleepy or im just slow lol). This is nowhere near the 1st season but it also has its own charm. The story picks up at the 20 and up episodes so be patient.Acting: Jing Chao as Dr Qin, Im not quite convince with his acting first but he grew on me later on also my fave character probably is Ling Dang. Their slow-burn-romance keep me wondering so i keep playing the next episode. The supporting casts where great too. Of course if your watching a team drama like this its impossible not to love the whole team. ♥ Yay to Criminal Investigation of Long Fan City.
Music: I did not hear any music from this sorry.
Re-watch value: Probably re-watch most of Wang Ling Dang scenes and Qin Ming's niece.
So if you liked a slow-paced crime procedural drama give this a try.

Another thing is this season they stirred up too many conflicts between Dr. Qin & Lin Tao that it became annoying over time. I realized the character, Lin Tao, in this season isn't as quick and smart as the previous two seasons, it seems as if they want to make him the 'comedy' of this drama, so everything he said most of the time doesn't get taken seriously. Aside from this, Lin Tao literally being looked down on by Chen ShiYi when the other two seasons, literally respect for him and work, so I wasn't sure what they're trying to do here.
Lastly, I think to try for a drama to reuse character, names and life, it doesn't make sense to make Dr. Qin having to dead girlfriends for two seasons, and tried to make a relationship out of Lin Tao and Chen ShiYu too.
I would say, if you watch the other two seasons, I recommend you not watch this one. Although all the cases are good, I feel that they're trying really hard to make all the cases 'cruel' but then it got repetitive. I personally think if you watch this one first, then you can go ahead and watch the other two.

Like KimberlyAmor, i also almost give up but because KimberlyAmor say 20ep up will gonna lit up i wait & watch. But in the end i still don't get it's charm. But because i already watch until 20ep why don't i just finished it... Not just KimberlyAmor, me too also have some scene where i don't understand.
The plot actually kinda good, with adding the serial killer in the middle. And the growth relationship between the couple i think not so fast but sure & steady. But i don't know why this drama not really get the intense they supposed to... I don't think it's because the actor too... Just idk...
I have to compare it to the first season with all that charming actor to know the different ^_^

i stayed for the slowburn subplot romance
For someone who likes watching these kind of shows, this one didn't feel like a copycat of others I've seen. While some parts are confusing because of two or more cases being solved simultaneously, it didn't really affect my watching experience so all goods. I was really impressed at some of the sequence of case solving being done, not all but notable ones. Quite a variety of murder mystery too. I think my down point is when Dr Qin talks to the dead and their wrongdoing are being downplayed. I understand how it humanize them but not all of them really did well when they're alive to be pitied being dead but anyways some are also touching, a closure of sorts and connection of a medical examiner to these people he examined.The squad is alright. They could've made the criminal unit leader a bit smarter tho. It sometimes bothered me how they wouldnt be able to solve any without Dr Qin. Hopefully Ke will find his significant other sooonest. Overall, i really like the team.
And mostly the reason I stayed is the slow burn loveline between Dr Qin and Lingli. I loved it so much. The way they look at each other, their team work, their understanding of each other. That's my type of slowburn subplot romance. And it didn't disappoint me until the end. Them not having a lot of scenes is something i weirdly like because i always look forward for them to meet and when they do i squeal and heart flutters. When they talk ughh such mature interaction between them was what i lived for. Theyre made for each other. Lingli would be someone who will never be bothered by how Dr Qin still love his passed gf. I hope they heal each other and live happily with their family in their apartment overlooking the river.
This wasn't perfect in any way or even impressive or impactful but my rating is based on my experience while watching it. I binged this for like 2-3 days. I didn't even fast forwarded that much. Overall, i really enjoyed this show.

Really tried to like it enough to complete cos I admire the ML…
Really tried to like it enough to complete cos I admire the ML… Jing Chao …Imho … storyline/individual cases aren’t engaging/exciting… draggy with moments of comedy… dropped halfway…The Actors/ supporting cast performances were commendable/good, but I couldn’t watch anymore.
(The rest of this review is due to the minimum 500 characters for reviews) I decided to drop it after taking breaks and inevitably watching … finishing Other drama series.. and coming back to continue… After watching 3 Other very good (or better) drama series… I came back a final time and eventually decided to drop it.
