This animated feature is so underrated, back in the 80s. This style of animation kicked butt, beautifully drawn.
If you can find it, be sure to watch it. One of the best sci fi features GOLD from the 80s - 90s. This style of animation.. I can think of the following that has this. Monster City, Wicked City (uncut version), Cyber City Odeo. Feeling like I'm missing a couple more, the ones listed are the ones I can think of now.

Hmmmmm I can’t really say there is a deceptive adaption really as that is a more niche genre. Usually, anything that is solely detective-based it a unique creation or is based on an already popular detective IP. There are cases of there BEING like kinda sleuthing in xiyouji shows, some cases making it like trying to find clues how to defeat the monster, but I wouldn't called that a detective story really. More like media with dedetive moments. The best I can say is more there like learning mystery/thriller.
The BEST case I can think is this one movie called Journey to the West: Wild Village Inn (2016) 囧西游之荒村客栈. Basically is an alternative universe version of the Xiyouji gang but Sanzang wakes up from a coma and finds himself being accused of murder by three other people in the inn he was staying at. It is kinda like a who-done-it but I've never see it so I can't say how much time was spent on the detective work.
Another one is that is kinda of sleuthing could be like Goku Midnight Eye (1989) MIDNIGHT EYE ゴクウ which is more of a sci-fi version of Wukong as he is the only Xiyouji character in the story. Wukong in this verse is a private detective who fights crime with two weapons bequeathed by a mysterious benefactor: a mechanical quarterstaff, and a bionic eye that can hack any computer system. Again, not sure how much of the time he is actually deducing clues versus fighting but this can still be technically a xiyouji version.
This is where the pool of sleuthing version kinda dries out as now these are considered to be more "thrillers" so to speak. I know that is not really sleuthing in itself but there is an element of suspense that might still help.
Journey to the West (2016) is a short movie but is considered to be a thriller of some kind. The protag who is our Wukong wakes up after 500 years and going through several escapades as he tries to figure out who is after him and his own desires. Li Shimin's Visit to the Land (1978) 李世民游地府 could almost be considered a horror as it just follows the king of the Tang Empire in his goes to Hell and tries to escape the underworld. Doesn't even mention our main gang but it IS from the book so it counts! Last of the thrillers are Princess Iron Fan (1927) 鐵扇公主 which for the life of me I cannot imagine why they would classy it as a thriller but they have at least on Douban. This could just an error and they mean like Drama but just the idea of there being a Princess Iron Fan with the directing lense of a thriller would be AMAZING.
