Chapter 353
In August, during the summer break, a historical drama exploded in popularity, along with another historical drama and a modern one that also gained traction.
Many believed that the historical drama would be the top show of the summer, but on the night of its premiere, Lockwood’s Detective Diary broke viewing records that had stood for the previous eight months.
Everyone was eager to see what level of performance Luna would deliver in her first drama since her return to the mortal realm.
Additionally, this was Zayn’s first leading role in a broadcast production, which drew significant attention as well.
With all the hype, Lockwood’s Detective Diary” topped the ratings as soon as it aired, leaving all other programs in its time slot far behind.
The Donovan family was, of course, glued to their screens early on.
Even all the electronic displays at Donovan’s Restaurant were playing the show.
When Luna, with half her hair tied back, dressed in a lace white shirt, denim shorts, and white sneakers, wheeled her suitcase onto the university campus, the audience gasped. [Oh my God, is that Luna? She looks so youthful. You would never guess she’s thirty this year!]
[The key is that the filter looks very natural. You can tell at a glance how well her skin is cared for, and whether she’s wearing makeup. Her complexion holds up beautifully under high–definition cameras.]
[Good skincare isn’t everything. We need to see if her gaze has the clarity and vitality of a nineteen–year–old girl. I think it does.]
[Just compare her current look with photos from when she was nineteen. She hasn’t changed at all. How does she maintain such a youthful appearance?]
[Just based on her eyes and her face, I could binge–watch fifty episodes in one go.]
Initially, viewers marveled at Luna’s beauty and vitality.
Soon after, Lockwood, a sophomore, encountered a theft incident involving a freshman. Luna immediately launched an investigation and found the thief in just ten minutes.
As the thief fled, she swiftly chased him down, leaving a group of boys behind, and managed to pin him to the ground all on
her own.
This intense chase scene was filmed in one continuous shot lasting two minutes.
Viewers were amazed as they watched Luna run for a full two minutes, darting around and displaying impressive speed and agility.
They exclaimed: [I heard Luna doesn’t like filming action scènes, but she nailed this chase! It could easily make it to the big screen. Maybe she should consider doing action films with Zayn in the future.]
[She runs incredibly fast! If she participated in a collegiate athletic event, she would definitely place in the top three.]
[She looks great in stills and in motion. She’s versatile and clearly a well–rounded actress.]
Next, Lockwood received a call from a high school teacher.
The teacher mentioned that a former female student, who had long since graduated, was falsely accused of poisoning a

wealthy heir. However, the teacher vouched for the student’s kind heart, saying she would never commit such a terrible act, and hoped Lockwood could help this financially struggling senior.
Lockwood decided to investigate the case and encountered detective Zayn.
As Zayn emerged in his police uniform, all the female viewers gasped, their eyes sparkling.
[Oh my God, he’s so handsome! He looks so reliable and safe.]
- 6.
[He has the rugged charm of a leading man from the golden age of Hollywood. Such charisma is too rare in this country. No wonder he’s popular. It would be unjust if he weren’t.]
[When he stands next to Lockwood, they look perfect together, but their chemistry isn’t romantic. They complement each other as an ideal partnership.]
In short, both the audience and netizens were singing praises for the two leads.
This enthusiastic response also attracted even more viewers to the drama.
In a remote mountain village over a thousand miles from Kitmore City, an old man sat with a bottle of liquor in one hand and peanuts in the other, staring at the TV. His eyes widened as he looked at Zayn, and he kept shouting, “Hey, come here! This guy on TV looks just like Wesley.”
