Chapter Forty-Nine: It's an Assist!

After Ye Chen finished talking to Wang Jing on the phone, he was still a little excited, his "Da Vinci Code" was about to go on the market naked, and it was on the same stage with the new book of the suspenseful little prince in Qingyang City, to be honest, Ye Chen was also a little worried.

Although in the eyes of others, Cheng Ji is just a loser who tries to make a comeback after writing a book and hitting the street, Ye Chen knows that the reason why Cheng Ji's last book failed was because he challenged different fields, and now he has returned to his hometown Qingyang City, which is the suspense subject he is best at, and after the lessons of the last failure, presumably Cheng Ji's new book will definitely go all out this time, coupled with the overwhelming publicity in Qingyang City, it should not be underestimated.

What did the Earth Ancestor say in his previous life?

Strategically we must despise the enemy, and tactically we must attach importance to the enemy, although Ye Chen has confidence in "The Da Vinci Code", Ye Chen will not underestimate the enemy, not to mention that he is in a disadvantageous situation.

Fortunately, the news brought by Wang Jing this time can be called a send-off, there is still a week before publication, and the magazine can be published twice, counting the number of words, and it can almost be serialized.

After thinking about it for a while, Ye Chen turned on the computer, logged in to the official forum of Chaoyang Magazine, and found the section about the serialized novels in the magazine, and Ye Chen clicked on it.

With just a glance, Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, regardless of the quality of the comments, just from the number of posts about "The Devotion of Suspect X", the novels he serialized should have a certain popularity, and it is a good thing to have popularity.

The mood relaxed, Ye Chen's whole person was also a lot more relaxed, and when he read these posts again, he couldn't help but have a little more bad taste in his heart, remembering that when he was just obsessed with reasoning novels, he always thought that he was a very smart person, and when he first read it, he also thought that he could think of how to solve the case, but the result was not to mention racking his brains, even if he racked his milk, he couldn't find out the truth from the author's disorganized, a hammer in the east and a mallet in the west, not to mention this "The Dedication of Suspect X" When Keigo Higashino, the author of this book, was written, it is said that in order to make the logic flawless, all the walls in the room where he lived were painted, which led to this classic mystery novel, there must be smart people among the readers, but Ye Chen still didn't believe that anyone could find out the truth, not that the readers were not strong, but that the author was too cunning.

It is no exaggeration to say that this case is a case in which it is difficult to overturn the original verdict even if the truth is known, and it can be called unsolvable, unless it is like the ending in the novel - surrender!

"I read this novel on the recommendation of a friend.,Just finished reading the serialized part.,It's so exciting.,But then there's a question I didn't understand.。 Ishigami designed so many plans or let the spearhead of the case point at the mother and daughter, the case is not closed, the police will naturally track down, and in the end they will implicate themselves, why did Ishigami do this? Although I haven't read much, I really like this novel, I feel that this is the real novel, strict logic, the duel of smart people, so far, Ishigami can be called an IQ crushing to the police, but why still let the police track down the mother and daughter, and ask the great god to answer! I really can't stand this kind of torment!" -- the roadside knows

"Tongqiu, it's too painful, I've read it several times, and even listed all the clues that I have, I look at it with joy, but it's useless, I feel that the author is so hateful, and so smart, I see how round he is!"

"Don't worry, the two upstairs, I'm like this too, but that's the charm of this novel, I hope that the gods who can see it don't debunk, otherwise I can't help but read it, and I won't be able to continue reading the novel at that time, but it's okay to spoil a little bit, for example, I think this Yukawa must be a hidden detective, otherwise the police will be too incompetent, fellow book friends, have you found anything?" - call me a camel

"Regarding the issue of the first floor, I think so, the reason why Ishigami did this must be justified, there will always be some clues when people die, once they start to investigate, the mother and daughter will definitely not be able to escape, it is better to completely block the possibility of convicting them. - Hidden boss

Ye Chen was happy to see it, this is the charm of mystery novels, this is a contest between smart people, the murderer and the detective in the book are a contest, and the reader and the author are also a contest, after all, no one will admit that they are not as smart as others, but at present, it seems that they are completely victorious!

Ye Chen continued to browse, but this time seeing a post made Ye Chen gasp.

"I just finished reading the latest serial, I feel like I have found something, I don't know if it's right, I've been substituting myself into the author when I'm reading the book, and then look at the stone god and the police as a bystander, the charm of this book lies in the IQ wrestling between the reader and the author, if you stand in the author's point of view, you must be racking your brains to prevent the reader from solving the case, therefore, if I am the author, I will try to hide the clues, but from the book, it can be seen that the author did not completely hide the clues, but in front of the reader, since the evidence is in front of us, but we have not found it, it means that the author has mixed the evidence in some places that we rarely noticeTo give a very simple example, normal people don't care how many times a day they drink water, so with this point of view, I read it several times in a row, but I am ashamed that I only saw one thing, that is, there was another murder mentioned in the novel, but it was very small, just a brush, is it possible that these two cases are related?" - Mysterious

"I have to say that the landlord is careful enough, but I don't think it's possible, it's just an ordinary news broadcast on TV, if you don't think that this news will not be broadcast for no reason in the novel, then I can also tell you, have you watched it so many times and not found that the two murders are not the same day at all?" - hot summer

"Upstairs is right, it's unlikely that the two murders are related. - Soy Sauce Party

"The spirit of the landlord is worth learning, but I don't think it's likely. "Long live the bear child

Ye Chen looked at it in a cold sweat, the folk god really should not be underestimated, although it was unintentional, but he really guessed part of it, and since there were still people who noticed the time.

But fortunately, I'm not afraid of god-like opponents, I'm afraid of pig-like teammates, and this group of cute book fans is another god assist.

Ye Chen flipped through a few more posts, and what made Ye Chen a little relieved was that there were not many truth emperors who had stumbled by mistake just now, and most of them were clueless "detective" help-seeking posts.

After browsing for a while, Ye Chen withdrew from the forum and continued his code word business

For a few days, Ye Chen stayed at home and never even went out, even eating was solved with takeout, the only gain was to code enough manuscripts, according to Ye Chen's plan, after being put on the shelves, he could only occasionally explode updates, otherwise it would be better to update them stably, otherwise it would be really difficult, in case the reader's taste was raised, Ye Chen would upload tens of thousands of words every day, Ye Chen couldn't stand it.

Today, Ye Chen gave himself a day off, and he didn't have to worry about breaking the update if he saved enough manuscripts, so he had a good rest

Marking Group of the National Youth Literary Creation Competition.

Due to the Empire's emphasis on culture and education in recent years, the younger generation of students in the Empire is also very concerned, in addition to the policy tilt, there are also a variety of culture-related awards, and the National Youth Literary Creation Contest is the highest status competition among the younger generation, and even the imperial family will send representatives to the finals.

You must know that the imperial family has a very high status in the hearts of the people of the empire, and China can have today's status and become the hegemon of the world, and no one can erase the merits of the imperial family.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the Empire, if someone speaks ill of the royal family for no reason, no one around will give him a good look. Fortunately, the empire has always been very close to the people, and even from time to time there will be royal princesses who marry imperial civilians, which is also something that the people of the empire talk about, and there are a lot of things to talk about after dinner, although the royal family also has a few more strange royal family members, but most of them just have strange interests and hobbies, and will not do anything to oppress civilians.

However, despite the decentralization of power to the Cabinet, the Imperial Family still has a power ministry that has always been firmly in the grip of the Ministry of Culture.

It is not only to deal with the competition in cultural competitiveness led by the United States, but also to maintain the status of the royal family in people's minds.

However, in recent years, it seems that the empire's cultural achievements are not very good-looking, and there are obviously the most authoritative cultural awards in the world, but in recent years, none of the literary award winners are from the empire.

It's just a matter of losing to the Western countries led by the United States, after all, the two are barely opponents of the same level, but what makes the royal family lose their face is that the last imperial cultural exchange seminar that kept up with the previous session actually lost to their own vassal countries!

Because the empire has determined its status as the world hegemon early, even the Western countries led by the United States have given up military competition with the empire and started cultural competition, which has made the people who have long had a sense of great power lose their faces, and even in ordinary small talk, they are ashamed to speak, and they are holding their breath in the hope that this year's cultural exchange seminar can suppress these vassal countries.

Even some people who are more anxious jointly wrote the Book of the People, you must know that the Book of the People is a rule set by the Holy Emperor Yang Guang of the Empire, just to fear what will happen when the people's grievances boil and cannot be vented, and also to prevent some unscrupulous monarchs in the royal family in later generations, regardless of the life or death of the people of the empire.

Fortunately, after the Holy Emperor, although there were some strange things in the royal family in the past dynasties, they were generally good, so since the establishment of this rule, this kind of thing has never happened, but I didn't expect this to happen last year, and it has a wide impact all over the world.

This is the influence of the terror of a world hegemonic state, and the whole world is watching every move.

The country is strong and strong, this is the pride in the hearts of the people of this world empire, with the pride of not inferior to the Tang style and Han bones on the earth, or even better!

They can't tolerate losing to others in anything, and can even spontaneously write a book of nations for this kind of thing!

And the effect is very significant, the current emperor of the empire Yang Ling is furious about this, maybe the book of the people is a manifestation of democracy and freedom in the eyes of outsiders, but Yang Ling doesn't think so, the petition of the people that has not happened during the reign of the emperors to himself happened because of the loss of the cultural exchange seminar, although Yang Ling is not happy to lose to his own little brother, but this can't be helped.

As an emperor of a huge empire, there are too many things to deal with every day, and although power has been delegated to the cabinet, the emperor is still the supreme head of the empire.

I can't just stare at the development of the empire's cultural and educational undertakings all day long, right? Besides, ten years of trees and a hundred years of people, education is never something that can be achieved overnight.

After all, the previous emperors were all single-mindedly fighting for hegemony, and it was inevitable that education was neglected, but fortunately, the previous emperor had already begun to realize this problem and set out to reform.

That being said, Yang Ling also attaches great importance to the people's "petition" and strictly orders the Ministry of Culture to pay attention to it this time.

Even the head of the empire has spoken, of course, the leaders attach great importance to it, and now most of the participants in the National Youth Literary Creation Contest are high school students, more are senior high school students, and they are freshmen after the college entrance examination for a summer vacation, just right, the imperial cultural exchange seminar is at this time, therefore, the leader's vision is naturally focused on here, which is also part of the provincial performance competition, for officials, if any student in their province performs well in the cultural exchange seminar, then they will naturally enter the leader's sight。
