Do you recommend short stories with surprise endings?

A novel with an unexpected ending, please! It doesn't have to be too long. Just around 300 words will do. Just like Sniper, but the ending will be a little unexpected. For example, two people fighting, fighting in deep waters. In the end, one of them wins by name. He will go over and see that the person who was killed was actually his younger brother…This is the plot of Sniper. Can everyone help me think of something? An outline is fine too. At least give me an idea… Thank you, brothers and sisters. If it's good, I'll give you additional points!

"Five Extremes of the Origin","Our Love Is Hard to Turn White", and "A Collection of Strange Tales and Inferences in the City" all had unexpected endings. Among them, the former was a fantasy novel with a bizarre protagonist and a story full of surprises; the second was a short story with an unexpected and gentle ending; and the third was a mystery detective novel with an enjoyable ending. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗

Use foreshadowing subtly. Drop small hints throughout the story that can be overlooked at first but make sense when the surprise ending is revealed. For example, if the ending is that a character is a time - traveler, you could have a few strange references to historical events in their speech earlier.
