Chapter 349: Darkness or Flame
October 20, 2022.
Liucheng, Liucheng Publishing House.
As a full-time dad, Bao Shiyi took his daughter to take revenge on the society, although on the road of revenge against the society, he is now one of the ones who has been retaliated.
Xu Qi liked Bao Shiyi very much for bringing his daughter to the publishing house, so he grabbed Bao Shiyi from Bao Shiyi with a smile on his face and smiled, saying, "You look so good, very much like you." ”
"Of course my daughter looks like me!"
Bao Shiyi replied as a matter of course, and then asked about the manuscript sent to Xu Qi before, and asked, "How is it, when will the new book be published?"
Xu Qi has long known the rhythm of Bao Shiyi's prolific author, which has been more than a month since Bao Shiyi's last book "Lovely Bones", and the most important thing is that the previous "Lovely Bones" and "Su Yuan" were not published by publishing houses at the beginning, but Bao Shiyi was directly published on Weibo on the Internet.
This made Xu Qi tell Bao Shiyi a long time ago that the new book would be published in the future and handed over to the publishing house.
However, because paper publishing obviously does not have a wider influence than online communication, Bao Shiyi directly discussed with the publishing house, and the new books in the future will also be published on the Internet, although this has a certain impact on sales, but it is obvious that more people will read Bao Shiyi's new books, which means that there will be more possibilities for negative energy.
"Don't be in a hurry to publish it on the Internet, really don't worry, it's all said before. ”
The publisher has discussed with Bao Shiyi before, and Bao Shiyi can wait for the publication before publishing it on the Internet, and it is better to leave a part of it, not all of it on the Internet.
Bao Eleven also agreed.
……
"What about the new book, how do you say it?"
When Xu Qi heard Bao Shiyi's words, he couldn't help but smile, amused the waking smile, and said: "Naturally, there is no problem, but I'm really scared of you again, and the suspense you wrote this time is really scary." ”
"So I said that I could add a sentence to the introduction: out of a kind reminder, don't look at the faint of heart, don't look at the underage, don't look at the heart disease - this is by no means alarmist!"
Hearing Xu Qi's words, the smile on Bao Shiyi's face deepened, he looked at his daughter and smiled, blinked, squeezed his eyebrows, hoping that Xiaoxiao could smile happily, and said, "I wrote this before." ”
Xu Qi pursed his lips and said helplessly: "You are a father, and I thought that the writing style would change, but I didn't expect it to be more gloomy and darker." ”
"Look, who are you writing about in this story?rape murderers, disfigurers, fetishists, transvestites, non-mainstream teenagers, corpse killers, homeless people, kidney sellers, perverts, murderers, and psychopaths......"
Xu Qi himself felt cautious when he said it, and in Bao Shiyi's new book, these people all appeared, shook their heads and said: "It's really dark to the extreme, and human nature has also gone to the extreme." ”
Xu Qi thought of the latest story written by Bao Shiyi, and really felt a strong dark wind, and the human nature in the story really made Xu Qi feel creepy again.
"Eleven, are these cases real?"
This question is not only what Xu Qi wants to know, it should be said that everyone in Liucheng Publishing House wants to know.
The banners played in it are adapted from real cases, and the names of the people involved in the case are pseudonyms, but whether they are true or false, the people of Liucheng Publishing House do not know.
Perhaps, when the truth is false, it is also true, as the new book says, ten terrorist murder cases really happened around us, but each of them was a strange case that was tightly sealed by the media and kept secrets by the authorities.
Limb snowmen, ghosts on a rainy night, cellar slaves, human fur men, perverted perverts, and the horrific corpse mutilation that has caused a sensation on the Internet......
The more he thought about it, the more scared Xu Qi felt, he was really more perverted than the other.
……
Hearing Xu Qi ask this question, Bao Shiyi smiled and said, "Do you think it's true or fiction?"
Xu Qi's words were stagnant, she couldn't figure out what she was thinking in her heart, it was really hard to imagine the bizarre cases inside, the perversion of human nature would be so deep, although she didn't want to admit it, but Xu Qi knew very well that those cases, those darkness didn't exist if she didn't want to admit it.
The case of sexual assault for three years really happened, and the case of sexual assault on a six-month-old baby broke out so cruelly, what else won't happen, it's not real?
Xu Qi sighed and said, "I know that those cases are true or not, and they may be even more cruel and bloody. ”
"Eleven, I think you really want to expose all the darkness to the world. ”
……
The last sentence made Bao Shiyi smile, looking at his daughter and smiling, looking at Xiaoxiao's bright and clear little eyes, the black eyes revealed the light of innocence and innocence.
It's a little funny no matter how you look at it, now he and Xu Qi are talking about dark and cruel things, but in front of their daughter who doesn't know anything.
Bao Shiyi stretched out his hand and gently adjusted the smiling swaddling clothes, and said: "Aunt Xu, you are wrong, the darkness does not need me to show it, the darkness is there, but few people will face the darkness." ”
Xu Qi didn't speak.
The whole person fell silent, and she remembered the words at the beginning of Bao Eleven's new book, "What's so great about tasting apples in heaven, I want to taste apples in hell." There is a black flame in the darkness that only the sharp-eyed can catch. Sometimes our eyes can see the universe, but they can't see the most miserable world at the bottom of society. ”
The more he thought about it, the more Xu Qi was able to cover why Eleven would say such a thing.
Perhaps, Eleven has been using blood-stained language and rusty writing, drawing nourishment from under the forgotten paving stones that he steps on every day, to complete this book that will hover between hell and heaven.
Xu Qi sighed, shook his head and said with a helpless smile: "Eleven, you really haven't given up on the exploration of the darkness at all, even if there is no sun overhead, you have to sit in the dark and ignite yourself." Through that humble light, go into the depths of hell. ”
Darkness, hell, humanity, blood, despair......
These words came out like this, Xu Qi glanced at Bao Xiaoxiao, who didn't understand anything in his arms, and couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Forget it, don't say this anymore, it's not good to say these things in front of the child." ”
"Eleven, a word of caution, when your daughter grows up, don't show her what you wrote. ”
Bao Shiyi looked at his daughter and smiled, then nodded and smiled.
However, it is obvious that Bao Shiyi and Xu Qi don't know that behind this laugh, there is a person who is also smiling, as if waiting for the next crime and punishment......
