“In Oedipus, who appears in the tragedy, there is the aspect of an old-type king who rules in the dualization of knowledge and power. Moreover, at the final curtain, Oedipus is forced to realize his own ignorance. This tragedy ends by showing that power is connected not to knowledge but to ignorance, that it is nothing but a child of forgetting and ignorance.”

“Is it only the criminal who is cunning and wise? No, no, that is not the case. A detective, who engages in a life-or-death struggle of wits with the criminal, can only achieve the final victory because he is more cunning than the criminal.”

“In a locked room, ‘the dream of a privileged death is sealed’ from the outside. In a deserted island or a mountain lodge in a storm depicted in a detective novel, it is ‘sealed’ from the inside…”

The philosophical aspects are interesting to read, but the mystery plot takes a bit of a backseat, which is a shame, as there are some really cool ideas to be found here. I'm excited to see where Kasai takes his characters from here, especially considering the very final reveal.

非常厚的書 夾了不少哲學的想法 但案件本身很嚴僅 每個線索都解釋的很清楚
