Chapter 158: Before School Starts and After School (Part II)
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"After School" is Keigo Higashino's famous work, which won the most important newcomer award of the Japanese Mystery Aishang Novel Network - Edogawa Ranbu Award in one fell swoop.
In addition to the delicate and meticulous structural design and excellent puzzle arrangement, this novel has many other places worth exploring, such as the excavation of the subtlety and darkness of human nature, such as the reversal of the ending that first appeared, such as the delicate presentation of the laughter and sorrow of the youth campus, so that the deep core of the story is finally revealed: "When the beautiful, pure, and real things are destroyed, and the memories and dreams that are valued are destroyed, hatred begins to germinate and spread wantonly." ”
When Liu Jingting first read this book, he was deeply impressed by a cool female classmate named Yoko Takahara in the story, the girl who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and can't hide her true love, is almost one of the most sunny characters in Keigo Higashino's novels, which shows that the author also has a certain skill in character building.
Of course, the most controversial and creative of this book, and the most discussed by readers and critics is the setting of the "motive for killing".
There are two lines in this novel, the main line is a traditional murder in a closed room, and the side line is the story of the narrator and his wife, the two lines go hand in hand, echoing each other, when the truth of the main story is revealed, the jaw-dropping motive for the murder is absolutely beyond everyone's expectations, and the end of the side story, that is, the end of the whole story, is an unexpected twist in the story.
In short, this is a work that "has all the conditions for a masterpiece of reasoning".
……
After Tokuda Jiro's interview was broadcast, a wave of great crusade was set off on the Internet, and everyone almost overwhelmingly attacked Tokuda Jiro, a devil writer, and even those sailors who usually worked full-time to Kuroku Yongsheng rarely remained silent, and no one would be stupid enough to stand aside with Tokuda.
"A few years ago, I took a sleeper train from Yucheng to Jianghai. There was an old man in his sixties on the first floor of the sleeper opposite, and he was reluctant to sleep in the bed all the way, so I was curious, so I asked him why he didn't sleep, and he told me that his upper bunk was a Japanese, and he didn't want to sleep under the Japanese. ”
Lu Yichou spoke slowly, but he also roughly said the root cause of this cyber incident - although everyone is saying now that they are looking forward, however. Where can the old grudge disappear so easily?
"So it's a good thing, you don't have to worry too much. Lu Yichou finally said the main purpose of this call.
"Mr. Lu, I'm fine," Liu Jingting said lightly, "although that guy's judgment of "Chu Liuxiang" was completely wrong. But the reasoning novel argument he mentioned is justified after all. I'm sure it won't be long after. Public opinion on the Internet will turn to encourage me to come forward and fight it. ”
Lu Yichou was suddenly stunned, and then said: "I forgot about this stubble, why did I say that those high water were suddenly silent," after thinking about it, he continued: "Why don't we come forward to explain it in advance to prevent future troubles?"
"Don't rush yet. I'm preparing a mystery novel in the style of an island country.,I'll be able to finish it in about twenty days.,I'll send it to you when the time comes.。 ”
"Ah, good. ”
Then. The two had an in-depth exchange on domestic mystery novels, and Lu Yichou made a merciless comment on several of the more famous mystery novels that are now popular, intentionally or unintentionally: "It's obviously logical confusion, but it's pretending to be montage, obviously it's ignorant of what to do, so it's mysterious, but it claims to be a mystery, don't blame outsiders for criticizing us so much, and it's also a work that we really haven't mastered." ”
Liu Jingting laughed silently, knowing that this was Mr. Lu teaching himself, reminding himself to avoid these settings and techniques that looked very powerful but were actually scum, and said after a sigh: "Take its strengths and avoid its shortcomings." ”
"Hmm. ”
……
The reaction on the Internet really did not meet Liu Jingting's expectations, and after Gao Shuishui was silent for a few days, they finally began to move again, they first defended Gu Yongsheng with the same hatred, and then scolded Tokuda Jiro with righteous indignation, and finally shouted the slogan "Fight back".
"The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" has a precise layout, perfect rhythm, and the process of finding the truth is stripped of the cocoon, advancing layer by layer, which makes people scream, even if the elements of martial arts are removed, it is also a rare reasoning masterpiece, which also proves that Gu Yongsheng is a great expert in writing reasoning, so we implore Gu Dada to write a pure reasoning novel to fight back against Tokuda Zhailang!"
This call quickly won the support and approval of the majority of netizens, people always like the plot of heroes reversing the situation and big people changing history, and netizens are good at watching the excitement and not thinking it is a big deal.
Qianhong Culture did not give a clear reply, but only focused on the two themes of martial arts and reasoning, which instead fueled the arrogance of Gao Shuishui, and their voices became even higher, and finally shouted out "No war is not Chinese", "No war is not a man", "We are not a turtle" and other strong voices of the times.
At the end of July, Qianhong Dai Gu Yongsheng issued a statement: "Seeing so many netizens with sincere hearts, the company and Gu University are very moved, and it is decided that if those shouting netizens want to do their best for the country and fight back against Tokuda Jiro, please contact the editor, if your work can make Tokuda ashamed, we will not only provide the opportunity to publish and sign a contract but also reward an additional 100,000 yuan." ”
This passage is naturally a ridicule of Gao Shuishui, followed by a statement that reads: "Then it is a unified response to everyone's call during this time, at the request of everyone, the husband of Gu Yongsheng, a model worker and best-selling upstart, will launch a long mystery novel, which will be released simultaneously in China and Japan, and you can look forward to it." ”
As soon as this news was released, it immediately attracted widespread attention from everyone, and the readers of Gu Yongsheng, who had been silent before, finally couldn't help but speak: "Gu Yongsheng should not be affected by public opinion, he should insist on himself and write his own works." ”
"Whether it is out of self-esteem or to please the public, giving up the most familiar way of writing and devoting himself to an unfamiliar field is not a smart approach after all, I hope Gu Yongsheng will think twice. ”
"Seeing Qianhong Guanwei said, the heart of sincerity, what I want to say is that it should be the heart of eating support, responding to Tokuda Jiro shouldn't be a matter of our speculative novel writers, why should a person who writes martial arts join in this fun?"
Of course, as with all topics, there will always be two voices of discussion, and in addition to the growing opposition, some people have also expressed support.
"It's not all bad, for Gu Yongsheng, at least he can broaden his writing field, in case of success, it is a good thing for the author himself and the reader, if the transformation fails, just go back to the original path, the situation is not so strict. ”
……
On August 9, Lu Yichou, the president of Qianhong, shouted to Tokuda Jiro from the air, hoping that he could give advice on the novel he had released.
On August 10th, "After School" will be released in China and Japan at the same time!
