Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Devotion of Suspect X
Lao Zhang is a small clerk in an ordinary company in Qingyang City, like most ordinary people, Lao Zhang is in his Chinese New Year's Eve this year, the first half of his life was like a diary plain, after graduating from college, he worked for a few years and married a local woman, formed his own family, and changed from the beginning of Xiao Zhang to Lao Zhang.
Qingyang City is not a big city in the empire, and the people living in Qingyang City are not very stressed, at least relatively speaking, so although the burden of supporting his family falls on Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang can read magazines and other pastimes in his spare time.
Because Qingyang City is not big, although there are many magazines, the scale is very small, and the relative content is not rich, so Lao Zhang subscribes to Chaoyang Magazine, the largest magazine in Qingyang City, which is also the common choice of people in Qingyang City.
Reading fashion magazines is!
After getting off work as usual, Lao Zhang made a cup of tea, sat comfortably on the sofa at home, holding the latest issue of Chaoyang Magazine ready to browse, the first thing that caught his eye was the iconic cover of Chaoyang Magazine, a pair of illustrations of the rising sun, and some text about the content of this issue of the magazine was printed on the cover.
The Devotion of Suspect X
"An alternative duel between two geniuses, a perfect murder layout that can't be debunked even if you know the truth, created by a seventeen-year-old genius boy to challenge your logic and thinking"
Lao Zhang was noncommittal, as a middle-aged man, he had long passed the age of being curious about everything, and as always, he read from the first page according to his usual habits, but what made Lao Zhang helpless was that the first page was "The Dedication of Suspect X", and Lao Zhang had to continue reading.
Thirty years old is a very important stage for a man, who is in the prime of life, has a wealth of life experience and experience, and of course, patience.
Therefore, although the early stage was a little boring, Lao Zhang still watched patiently, until Shishen's first reasoning in front of Yasuko, Lao Zhang was a little interested, after all, for an adult man, more and more rational, for this kind of reasoning based on reason and logic is also very appreciative.
Immediately after seeing the police intervene in the investigation, a murder case that was obvious to Lao Zhang turned out to be because of Shi Shen's arrangement, so that the police could not get any progress, so that Lao Zhang couldn't help but wonder what Shi Shen had arranged, and seeing the fascinated place, Lao Zhang even involuntarily substituted himself into the police, considering how to use the existing clues to deduce.
It's a pity that because it's a serial, this issue has already been read, and Lao Zhang is a little unsatisfied.
The next day, when Lao Zhang went out to work, he sent the magazine to the company, after all, most of the clues have appeared here, Lao Zhang still wants to deduce it, therefore, Lao Zhang is also in a trance when he goes to work, just when Lao Zhang is thinking hard about what the stone god has done, Lao Xie on the side asked: "What's the matter, Lao Zhang, I can't give up all day today, is it uncomfortable, if you are uncomfortable, please take leave to go home, I will help you do it first." β
Lao Zhang came back to his senses and said embarrassedly: "I'm fine, Lao Xie, I'm just thinking about things." β
"What can you think about for a day, could it be that your wife found out that you were eating outside?" Lao Xie joked.
"I went to go, I was thinking about a book in Chaoyang magazine yesterday. Lao Zhang said.
"What book, I was a little tired yesterday, I didn't read the latest issue, what is the name of the book, I'll go back and take a look. β
"If you want to read it, I'll bring the book here, anyway, it's nothing today, you can also take a look and see what you can come up with." β
"Hey, you brought the company here, okay, then I'll see what kind of books make you lose the city like this. β
Lao Xie took the magazine, turned to the first page, and after reading it for a while, he frowned and said, "Lao Zhang, this book is nothing to look at." β
Lao Zhang had expected it, chuckled, and said, "You can continue to watch." β
"Cheng, then I'll take a look. β
After a while, Lao Xie said lightly: "Don't say it, this book is a bit interesting." β
Lao Zhang took a sip of water, nodded and said, "You continue to watch." β
After a while, Lao Xie finally finished reading it, his brows were furrowed tightly, and after a while, Lao Xie couldn't help but raise his head and ask, "Lao Zhang, what did you say this stone god did?"
Lao Zhang shook his head and said, "I just can't figure out what Shi Shen did to make the police go around." β
The two fell into silence, and then there was a period of hard contemplation, and it was foreseeable that in the next few days, Lao Zhang and Lao Xie would have a hard time.
Lao Zhang and Lao Xie are just ordinary two people in Qingyang City, and there are many people who are as entangled as Lao Zhang and Lao Xie today, and even many people have never read the content behind Chaoyang Magazine after reading "The Dedication of Suspect X", but are thinking hard about what Shishen has done.
Ye Chen didn't know all this, Ye Chen had been concentrating on coding words at home for the past two days, and the discussion about the stone god had just begun to ferment
Ye Chen uploaded another 100,000 words today, feeling the soreness coming from his waist, Ye Chen pondered whether he should buy a better computer chair to make himself more comfortable, just at this moment, Ye Chen's mobile phone rang, Ye Chen took out his mobile phone and saw that it was Wang Kong.
"Hey, teacher, what's the matter?"
"Ye Chen, I have good news for you. Wang Kong's voice came from the other side of the phone.
"What's the good news?" Ye Chen said curiously.
"The "Necklace" written by your kid in the preliminary round of the National Youth Literature Creation Contest successfully won the first place in the city! Dong Yuqi also won the sixth place, Liu Yu didn't play well this time, and he finished eighteenth, how about it, aren't you happy?"
"Oh, got it. Ye Chen said lightly.
"Hey, you kid, could it be that you already knew that you won the first place? No, the results came to me first. On the other side of the phone, Wang Kong looked suspicious.
"Teacher, what's so surprising about this, didn't I tell you that I would give you a first place, it's just expected. Ye Chen said calmly, but he remembered Dong Yuqi in his heart, he hadn't seen her for a few days, and he didn't know how she was.
"Okay, the news has already told you, in addition, three days later, you and Dong Yuqi are going to participate in the provincial semi-finals, remember, you must be at school before seven o'clock in the morning, don't be late." β
"Okay, I remember. Ye Chen said
"Okay, that's it. β
"Di", the sound of hanging up the phone came from the mobile phone, Ye Chen was thoughtful, it was not surprising to get the first place in the city Ye Chen, after all, Qingshui High School is the best high school in Qingyang City, which means the highest level in a sense, but now it is different in the province, you have to be cautious, after all, this is related to your own task, but it is too early to think about this, and then we will talk about it
Qingyang City had a heavy rain last night that had not been seen for a long time.
When I woke up in the morning, the leaves on the side of the road were still hanging with crystal clear raindrops, and after the baptism of this heavy rain, the whole city became much clearer.
was dragged up by Zhao Qingwei in the morning, Ye Chen looked at Zhao Qingwei with an excited face, and felt very helpless, if it goes on like this, don't want to sleep well in the future.
Zhao Qingwei didn't care about this, and when she saw Ye Chen get up, Zhao Qingwei said excitedly: "Ye Chen, do you guess how many downloads of the songs I recorded and uploaded today?"
Ye Chen was still immersed in his "getting up qi", and when he heard the words, he said weakly: "One or two thousand." β
When Zhao Qingwei heard this, she was immediately unhappy, and pouted and said, "Why are you so unconfident in me, guess again." β
"Then one or two thousand. Ye Chen casually said a number, he just wanted to deal with it quickly and see if he could get some sleep.
"You guessed it right this time! I got up today and saw that the number of downloads had reached 23,000, and it was only three days! I didn't dare to think about it at first!" Zhao Qingwei's face was excited, and a charming smile bloomed on her delicate pretty face at this time.
Ye Chen was taken aback, and he didn't care about returning to the cage.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, don't believe it. Zhao Qingwei still looked happy.
Wait for Ye Chen to log in to Brilliance Music Network, click on Zhao Qingwei's personal homepage and take a look, sure enough, the number of downloads is already 24,000, you must know that although the entertainment industry in Huaxia is not developing well, there are quite a lot of people engaged in related industries, take Brilliance Music Network as an example, there are hundreds of thousands of registered singers, of course, many are just nameless kinds, but relatively speaking, Zhao Qingwei is just a second-tier star, and an Internet celebrity, the new song has been released for less than three days, and the number of downloads can be so high and even surpass those first-line singers, of course, it is still not comparable with traditional singersγ
"Congratulations, it looks like you're going to be an A-lister soon. Ye Chen looked at Zhao Qingwei and said with a smile.
Hearing this, Zhao Qingwei was a little embarrassed and said: "I should thank you, without the song you wrote for me, I wouldn't have this achievement." β
Ye Chen shook his head and said, "You have the ability, I just help you, even if you don't have me, you can get this far sooner or later." β
Zhao Qingwei didn't speak, but Zhao Qingwei knew in her heart that although Ye Chen was telling the truth, this step let Zhao Qingwei go by herself, maybe it would take three years, five years or even ten years, Zhao Qingwei was no longer polite, because Zhao Qingwei didn't like this feeling of making Ye Chen very angry with herself, Zhao Qingwei just remembered it in her heart and remembered it firmly!
However, now I have to separate from Ye Chen for the time being.
"Ye Chen, it's been a while since I came out this time, and today I'm going to say goodbye to you. Zhao Qingwei looked at Ye Chen and said softly.
Ye Chen was stunned, looking at Zhao Qingwei's pretty face, he was a little reluctant for no reason, but he said:
"Oh, it's been out for so long, it's time to go back, not to mention that you've just released a new song, so you definitely have something to deal with. β
Zhao Qingwei nodded and said, "Well, the website contacted me and asked me to go back and discuss some things." β
"Then when are you leaving?" Ye Chen looked at Zhao Qingwei.
"Two o'clock in the afternoon plane. β
"Okay, then I'll send you in the afternoon. β
"Good. β
