The background fades into a hazy urban skyline with subtle hints of glowing red and gold lights, suggesting intrigue amidst the beauty.

Subtle shadowing is added to give a sense of depth and heat., The title is centrally placed at the top of the cover, balanced symmetrically with the firework explosions above, while the silhouette and lantern occupy the lower third, creating a sense of depth and drawing the eye downward. The urban skyline's hazy texture fills the remaining space without overwhelming the focal points. The area where the author's name typically appears should be left completely blank, with no text or placeholder.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition captures the essence of Eastern identity and the mystery genre with its juxtaposition of beauty and shadow—fireworks representing fleeting joy while the lone figure introduces intrigue.

The high-gloss finish adds a vivid visual pop, and the textured lamination creates a tangible sense of richness, aligning with the "hot" emotion key to this design.
