Chapter 436: Great Detective Sherlock Holmes (1)
The newsstand usually opens around 6:50, and then you take the newspaper, about 7:20, and you are about to start business.
After all, there are really a lot of working dogs who get up at 7 or 6 o'clock in the morning to go to work.
Amp· Ryle, translated into Chinese, is Ampryer, is such an office worker, as a foreigner who came to the Magic Capital in the United Kingdom to work hard, Amp is a little worried in his heart, but fortunately, Amp is very obsessed with Chinese culture, staying in China for three or four years not only normal communication is no problem, now he can read Chinese without the help of reference books.
Anpu just gets up at half past five in the morning, why should he use one to describe it? Because of such hard work and hard work, how can the word "one" be used.
His company is an accounting firm, and he actually doesn't work early every morning, at eight o'clock, but the problem is that Amp lives far away.
Is it absolutely impossible to live in the second and third ring roads of the magic capital, so Anpu lives in the suburbs, gets up at half past five to pack up and eat, and then has to get on the car at 6:20, to the city at seven o'clock, and finally to change trains to the company.
For two or three years, Anpu has come over like this, and even other Chinese young people who can be said to be working hard in the magic capital are like this, there are no exceptions.
The only difference is that Amp is a literary and artistic young man buried by work, just look at his name, there is an English poet called Amp Ryle, the poetry collection has not gone out of the UK, and even the reputation in the UK is not high, let alone in China, so basically no information can be found, and the poetry collection is even more Chinese.
But a few friends who like modern British poetry still know the most famous sentence of Amp Ryle: I think I'm dead, I think you picked the snowflakes you planted for you.
To get back to the point, Amp doesn't have the name of uncle, he will go to the café on weekends, sit quietly and write something, and he will buy a newspaper every morning to learn about information, and in general he is a very different foreigner.
At about seven o'clock, Amp came to the place of transfer, there is a newsstand next to the station, which is actually very unusual, Amp first bought a bun not far away as breakfast, and then, as usual, the anchor bought a copy of the Magic City Daily, but when he paid for it, he glanced at it and suddenly saw something different.
"The Strongest Detective, Sherlock Holmes Strikes!"
"After a lapse of three years, Han Gongzi is working on a short story again, revealing for you the unimaginable ability of Sherlock Holmes to solve crimes!"
It was these two lines that caught Amp's attention.
Without it, the super brain Amp also saw it before, and he naturally supported the British team, after all, there was still his former idol, the king of numbers, Fontaine, but the entire British team was lost by Han Shi in seconds.
Anpu's impression of Han Shi, a child, is that he is a high-IQ genius.
It was because of this that Anpu took a closer look at Han Shi.
I don't know, I was shocked by a search, this boy not only has a ridiculously high IQ, but also writes, if it weren't for Amp's lack of interest in fairy tales, he would have looked at it.
Later, there was the introduction of Sherlock Holmes in "Dear Sherlock Holmes", which instantly attracted Amp's attention, and it turned out to be his home country Britain as the background, of course, the place in which Amp also called his British friend to ask if there was indeed Baker Street. It was designed by the industrial speculator Edward at the end of the 18th century and named after his friend Baker.
But Baker Street, which is No. 1-42 on the east side from south to north, and No. 44-85 on the west side from north to south, does not exist at No. 221B, the residence of the great detective Sherlock Holmes and his assistant Watson, as mentioned in the book.
Later, Amp thought about it, this must have been made up casually by the young author, in fact, what Amp didn't expect was that in a few years, 221B Baker Street would become a British business card.
Getting back to the point, since Amp knew that Han Shi was going to write a reasoning book with a British background, the protagonist was still a British, so he paid more attention to it, but he didn't expect the text to come out today.
"Give me another copy of this weekly. Amp was intrigued.
"Hanfeng magazine, this is the hottest magazine today, and it has already sold ten copies this morning. The boss handed it to Amp.
Amp paid, and then just as the buns were finished, he got on the bus with the magazine.
The cover of the magazine is very interesting, there are two silhouettes on the left and right, on the left is the silhouette of Han Shi looking straight ahead, and on the right is the silhouette of Holmes holding a pipe, and in the middle is two vertical rows of large characters "Han Feng", the overall cover design can be seen to be designed by professional people, giving people a feeling of confrontation between Han Shi and Sherlock Holmes.
Most of the colors on the cover are black, but this cover doesn't make people feel dark, the edges of Guy Magazine are inlaid with yellow edges, and the words Korean style, as well as the word introduction, are also used in yellow.
So not only will it not give people a dark and gloomy feeling, but it will be positive.
The cover is very important, after all, people are visual animals, think about the coconut tree brand coconut water, it is this kind of old brand, because the appearance of the whole box is designed by the boss himself, it feels really not good, if it is not an old brand, it is estimated that no one will buy it.
"Korean Style" magazine is quite thick, and the main layout is a short story by Sherlock Holmes.
Generally, this kind of main content is the focus or the final position of the magazine, but the layout designed by Qin Banyuan is quite different, the main content is placed at the front, counting the table of contents, and the fourth page is the content of the text.
Anyway, it will take thirty or forty minutes to get to the company, so it is better to read the magazine in the car.
Since the station that Amp arrives at is the starting station, it is said that the location is there.
"What a strange name, but don't write it too badly, after all, it's from our English background. Ampryle muttered to herself.
[ One day last fall, I went to visit my friend Sherlock Holmes. ] When I met him, he was having a deep conversation with a short, stocky, ruddy-faced, red-haired old gentleman. I apologize for being abrupt. Just as I was about to withdraw, Holmes grabbed me, pulled me into the room, and closed the door with his hand.
He said kindly, "My dear Watson, it is wonderful that you are here at this time. ”
"I'm afraid you're busy. ”
"yes, I'm very busy. ”
"Then, I'll wait for you in the next room. ”
"No, no, Mr. Wilson, this gentleman is my partner and assistant, and he has assisted me in many cases with great effect. I have no doubt that he will be of the same great help to me in dealing with your case. ”
The stocky gentleman half-stood up from the chair he was sitting in and bowed to me in greeting, a quick glance of suspicion passing from the small eyes under his thick eyelids.

PS : Ampryor is a reader and wonders if this reader likes the poet too? The verses were translated by myself, and I don't speak English very well, so I don't translate very well .... Don't mind
