After the publication of "The Last Case", the whole country in Britain was shocked, and the grieving and indignant people expressed their dissatisfaction in various ways, and the resentment was like a tide, and they came to China across the sea, and the Chinese readers, who were also in great shock, converged into a river, and attacked Liu Jingting in a flood of land.

At this time, the editors of "Craftsman's Record" finally realized the meaning of Liu Jingting's reminder, because of the different conditions, Chinese readers could not hold demonstrations, let alone go to Vientiane School Park to surround Liu Jingting, they still adopted the old method and burned books.

Of course, there are also some readers who have a different view, after all, Sherlock Holmes is a foreigner, and the old grudge is still remembered in the history books, and when British readers point out that Liu Jingting is revenge, these readers are suddenly inexplicably relieved.

More of course, it's pride.

With a literary work, a virtual character, triggering a diplomatic incident, this kind of influence can be described as appalling, try to count the current writers, how many people can?

Liu Jingting sat quietly in his room, calmly browsing the information on the Internet, and after half an hour, he looked away, looking at the world map on the wall, looking for the location of Great Britain.

After all, the reaction over there was still beyond their expectations, and they actually went to the embassy to demonstrate and petition, and the scale of the momentum was breathtaking.

However, it was clear that their parade had played its due role, and Liu Jingting had just received a call from Director Kang, who would arrive at the principal's office before nine o'clock tomorrow morning when an important guest came to the school.

You don't have to think about it to guess about it.

Liu Jingting closed all the web pages and opened the "Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection" document again. The mobile phone on the bed "ding", a text message came, and I took the phone and looked at it. It's Yang Lilu.

"My dad is coming to school tomorrow and is going to invite you and my aunt to dinner. ”

Liu Jingting was stunned, then panicked, and replied with a "okay", and the expression on his face began to change wonderfully.

This psychological state is very strange, he and Yang Lilu are obviously only in the stage where AUO is slightly on the upper side, and the lover is definitely not yet full. Especially after the conversation with Hu Xiaomi, the relationship with the half-immortal once again cooled back to the point where the roommate was on the top and the friend was not full.

But why did I hear that the other party's father wanted to see him? Still on the verge of the enemy?

After the text message, it took nearly three or four more minutes to regain his composure, and then he began typing on the keyboard: [In the spring of 1894, the case of the venerable Adel being murdered under the most unusual and inexplicable circumstances. Get the attention of all of London......]

This is the first sentence of the opening chapter of "The Empty House". And the novel "The Empty House", in the Sherlock Holmes series of stories, has an absolutely extraordinary status and important significance, because Holmes, who fell into the torrent, was successfully resurrected in this novel!

When Conan Doyle talked about this resurrection incident, he also sighed sincerely: "It's a good thing that Watson didn't find Sherlock Holmes in the first place. It can be seen that he still has a deep affection for this gentleman detective in his heart.

Liu Jingting was writing the words of Sherlock Holmes's return. The "Sherlock Holmes fans" on the Internet who don't know whether it is true or false are frantically denouncing his bad behavior, but it is not the same as it was then. Whether it is Gu Yongsheng or Liu Jingting, an iron-clad and stable readership has been formed, and it is impossible to appear on the Internet again.

In addition, the moderator of today's largest martial arts forum "Huashan Lunjian" is Chang Youdao, and the moderators of other forums are also more or less stationed in some of Gu Yongsheng's diehards.

Therefore, whenever there are some vicious remarks on the Internet that have nothing to do with the story itself, they will basically be cleaned up in time.

For the author, whether the card is big or small, or there is no card at all, there is a moderator, which is really a very happy thing.

The competitors of "Craftsman Record" have long seen this clearly, and even the Yellow River Literature and Art have begun to fully and formally accept Gu Yongsheng as a peer, and list him as the number one imaginary enemy, ahead of Lu Yichou.

Therefore, when Mo Zhiyu answered the relevant interview, his tone was no longer as in the past, "I am in control, let him float at any time", but solemnly analyzed: " Obviously, this is a deliberate hype, and I can be 100% sure that Sherlock Holmes is not dead, he is doing this to pull up the topic and form a story discussion cloud, as long as the control is done properly, whether it is for him or for his magazine, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, in our industry, this is an old method, if you don't believe it, we might as well wait and see. ”

The reporter asked again: "Then do you think he can control the situation now?"

"I think it's okay, he just needs to send out the chapter of Sherlock Holmes' resurrection now, and the turmoil will subside, and I can say with certainty that the story of Sherlock Holmes's resurrection, he has finished it, and is waiting for a suitable opportunity to send it out. ”

"It's a pity that this layout of his was broken by you?"

"No, I say that, maybe he'll change his strategy, I mean, Holmes isn't dead. ”

Mo Zhiyu's remarks caused a lot of repercussions on the Internet, and readers who were really worried about the direction of the story were skeptical, as if they saw a glimmer of hope, while grumpy netizens still continued to scold and scold, and began to accuse Liu Jingting of such hype methods, which is really disgusting.

……

The next morning, Liu Jingting knocked on the door of Director Kang's office at 8:50, heard the director say "come in", pushed the door in, and saw that in addition to Director Kang, there was also a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties sitting in the office.

"Hello Principal—Uncle Yang is good. ”

The middle-aged man let out a puzzled "um", and Liu Jingting explained: "In the middle of the ...... Yang Lilu has seen your photos on her phone and on TV a few times. ”

Father Yang smiled and nodded, and asked in a harmonious voice, "You are Liu Jingting who made the whole British upset, right?"

Liu Jingting subconsciously scratched his head and smiled, rarely showing the temperament of a junior.

Director Kang said proudly: "Are they making a big fuss?"

Father Yang shook his head and said: "Absolutely not, you may not have been to the UK recently, I don't know the situation over there, Sherlock Holmes has become a national hero over there, and they believe in their hearts that it is a real living person, the day Liu won the championship of the reasoning competition." The British people sent fruit baskets, thank-you letters, and many food gifts with local characteristics to our embassy, and the atmosphere of pride made the embassy staff talk about it. ”

"And that was their own victory?"

Father Yang nodded. continued: "Not only that, but I have attended many high-profile dinners over there, including the Queen's Dinner, and Sherlock Holmes is an unavoidable topic, and most importantly, because of a Sherlock Holmes, the British people's favorability towards us has greatly increased. ”

"The power and charm of literature and art are endless. ”

"That's right. Our country's emphasis on the development of soft power is also focused on this. ”

Liu Jingting stood there, listening to the two elders chatting happily. It was not easy to interject, until Father Yang finished saying this, and after a slight pause, Liu Jingting answered: "I understand what Uncle Yang means. ”

Director Kang smiled: "Understand to understand." If the story had been arranged. That ending is not completely unacceptable, in the final analysis, literary and artistic things still can't be forced at all, Minister Yang, what do you say?"

Director Kang's meaning is very simple: "If Liu Jingting confirms that the story is over, no one can force him." ”

Father Yang still smiled and continued: "It's true, but in my opinion." That story is still a lot to be done, and it's far from over. Koyanagi, am I right?"

As soon as "Xiaoliu" came out, Director Kang immediately scolded "cunning", and in "Shooting the Condor", Huang Yaoshi called "Jing'er" to confirm the identity of his son-in-law.

Liu Jingting didn't wait for Director Kang to answer, and hurriedly said: "That's true." ”

Father Yang nodded with satisfaction, and Director Kang had the heart to tease, but when he thought of something, he finally held back.

"Then, it is better to send out the article as soon as possible, or make a public explanation, otherwise the situation will become more and more serious, and it may exceed the control. ”

Liu Jingting bowed his head.

After talking about business, start private affairs.

At noon, Yang's father invited Liu Jingting to the banquet as an elder, Xu Qing and Yang Lilu were all present, and at the banquet, Yang's father did not mention Sherlock Holmes for half a word, but kept talking about Yang Lilu's childhood affairs, including her glorious past as a class leader in primary school and a study committee member in middle school, including how she was filial and sensible.

Yang Lilu was embarrassed to hear it, and stopped her father from continuing to talk several times, but Yang's father stopped for a while, and after a while, he picked up the topic again.

The so-called hearts of parents in the world are almost the same, and the pride and pride from their children are incomparable.

Liu Jingting is too good at this kind of chat, and when he heard it with relish, he got to the point several times when he asked questions, completely ignoring Yang Lilu's angry gaze.

Xu Qing watched with a smile, and secretly took a photo and sent it to her sister, with a note: "Isn't it very good-looking?"

……

After lunch, Yang Guozheng and Liu Jingting chatted about international affairs for a while, talking about the current world pattern, Yang Guozheng skillfully used the "East Evil West Poison Southern Emperor and Northern Beggar" as a metaphor to explain in simple terms, Yang Lilu was inevitably unhappy, accusing her father: "Are you coming to see me, or are you here to chat with him?"

Xu Qing also smiled: "That's right, if you want to chat, there will be opportunities in the future." ”

Everyone pretended not to understand this sentence, and Father Yang looked at his daughter with a smile and said, "Of course I came to see you." ”

Yang Lilu's father and daughter connected hearts, immediately understood the meaning of her father's words, and subconsciously glanced at Liu Jingting, Yang's father's eyes that saw through the vicissitudes of the world flashed with a smile of unknown meaning.

Yang Lilu suddenly panicked and didn't know why.

That night, Liu Jingting wrote a sentence on his microblog: "If you can't escape the catastrophe of the falls, is Sherlock Holmes still Sherlock Holmes?"

The endless arguments came to an abrupt end.

After that, Xingyue TV International confirmed the news to the world, and the whole world was in an uproar and was curbed.

The spokesman of the Chinese Embassy in Britain shouted to the British citizens gathered outside the door: "Liu Jingting asked us to spread the word, Sherlock Holmes will always be invincible, and he can't help him, so let's go home and watch the news." ”

Someone took out his mobile phone to log in to the web page, and sure enough, he saw the exact news from the East and shouted: "He didn't lie to us!"

The demonstration turned into cheers, and then the crowd dispersed in joy.

When Yang Guozheng got the news, he immediately reported to the above and got a reply: "The bell must be tied to the bell after all, and Liu Jingting will decide the whole thing!"

The words quickly spread in a small area, some people smiled happily, and some people were shocked and speechless. (To be continued......)
