Features: This book is one of the "Cyber Detectives" series and was originally an English version, hence its authentic and idiomatic English. The protagonists in the book are all young and immature, but they solve cases that even adults find impossible to handle, thanks to their knowledge of the Internet. Although the stories are fictional, all the descriptions of the Internet are entirely factual—they are not fairy tales or science fiction, but real-world technological records of the present world. Therefore, readers can get a first-hand look at the practical uses of the Internet and its various impacts on people's lives. The book blends English knowledge, microcomputer knowledge, and Internet knowledge into lively and interesting stories, centered around a mysterious case closely related to the Internet. It is enjoyable to read, educational, and makes learning effortless. The dialogues take up a significant portion of the book, though they are mostly about the Internet, they also touch on various aspects of daily life. It can also serve as an English speaking textbook for learning.
