The Edo Prize and the Tree Planting Award, together with the previous Yokono Masashi Award, are known as the three most famous reasoning awards in the island nation. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

This time all the prizes are drawn, and the rest of the prizes are a little irrelevant!

The Edo Prize and the Tree Planting Award are both very demanding awards. In particular, the authors who were eliminated at the end of the Edo Award are among the best in the island country. Naturally, the famous artist has countless readers and fans, and these fans are naturally dissatisfied.

The Tree Planting Award is a newcomer award, and "After School" naturally deserves it, but why did "The Dedication of Suspect X" not win the newcomer award, but instead won a Jianghu award that is not considered a newcomer award?

You know, there is a rule that the Edo Prize is generally not awarded to newcomers.

At this time, among many inquiries, the judges of the tree planting award gave an explanation.

Because of the difference in the timing of the Tree Planting Award and the Edo Award, when the Tree Planting Award reached the deadline, "The Devotion of Suspect X" had not yet been serialized, so it did not meet the requirements for the Tree Planting Award, and "The Devotion of Suspect X" did not participate in the campaign for the Tree Planting Award.

The judge gave an answer to why "The Devotion of Suspect X" was not shortlisted for the Tree Planting Award. But why did this work win the Edo Prize? He did not answer, and it was not his responsibility, nor could he answer.

However, this is when a witty fan found the answer to the question.

Since the Edo Award can't be given to newcomers, it can only prove that Mr. Hatano, who wrote "The Devotion of Suspect X", is not a newcomer!

As soon as this statement came out, many people immediately felt empowered!

That's right, this writing, this plot, is definitely not something that a newcomer can write!

During this period of time, there have been too many excellent newcomer writers such as Aoi-sensei, Ozawa-sensei, and Hatano sensei, so that everyone didn't react for a while.

So who is this teacher?

Everyone immediately thought it was a mystery novelist, Satomi Kojima.

Tomoshi Kojima is the most popular writer in the island country to change his pen name, and the first pen name he chose for himself was Yamatori Twenty-three.

It is to break apart the islands of the island and divide them into two words, mountain and bird, and twenty-three is his age.

Then, as he got older, Kojima's pen name became, Mountain Bird Twenty-Four, Mountain Bird Twenty-Five, all the way to the current Mountain Bird Forty-One.

But in the face of everyone's inquiries, Kojima resolutely denied that he was Hatano. At the same time, he announced that his pen name would only be a combination of mountain bird and age. Because of everyone's doubts about his pen name, he was very angry, and at the same time he announced that he would no longer change his pen name, and would continue to use Mountain Bird Forty-One until the last day of his life.

Talented people have quirks or odd tempers. Kojima's announcement of his pen name also caused a small storm.

But since Kojima-sensei denied it, who is this mysterious Hatano-sensei?

Similarly, there are Aoi and Ozawa, who are these three?

Mr. Aoi got off to a bad start, he didn't go to receive the Yokono Masashi Award, but only paid online and took his prize money.

In this way, the method of one genius is imitated by many geniuses.

Mr. Ozawa did not go to receive the trophy of the tree planting award, but also took the prize money.

Mr. Hatano didn't go to receive the Edo Prize trophy, but also took the prize money!

But Mr. Hatano can't be the same as others, because the important thing about the Edo Prize is not the trophy, but the statue of the world-renowned mystery novelist David. It is said that this statue has magical powers, and it is because of this statue that every mystery novelist who has won the Edo Prize can become a world-class mystery novelist.

Of course, this is all nonsense, but no writer would want to live without this statue. Sure enough, Mr. Hatano left an address and asked for a courier!

Many reporters have been dispatched in a vain attempt to find out the true identity of Mr. Hatano!

Many reporters, including some fans who got the news, rushed to the address.

I saw that this address was a temporary storage place for parcels, and a small shop that could also help people send parcels out, called Big Bird Parcel. Could it be that Mr. Hatano lives nearby, and he may appear at any time to pick up the package?!

In the expectation of everyone, the shopkeeper of the big bird package, after posing a few times in front of the camera, turned out an address from the suitcase. said that he had just sent it according to the address on the note as soon as he got the box. So quickly because the customer left him a big tip.

Many people saw the address on the note and rushed out quickly, taking a taxi and driving a car. They went to the address written on the note to arrest people.

Only two reporters remained, one of whom held up the camera to record the video, and the other put the microphone in front of the shopkeeper and asked, "Mr. shopkeeper, how did you find this address?" ”

"Oh, here's the thing, yesterday, a kid eating candy delivered it." The owner explained.

"Didn't you ask this kid who called him?" The female reporter's eyes lit up and asked.

"I have asked," said the shopkeeper with a helpless expression, "and the boy said that it was a great bird that gave him a lollipop, and told him to give me an envelope with the postage and a note, and only to send me another thing that was sent to me today." ”

"Giant big bird?" The female reporter was confused when she heard it.

"Hey!" The shopkeeper pointed to the door and said, "That's it, that's what our store used for publicity, and that person put it on, bought candy for the child, and then asked the child to bring it." ”

"I see!" Although the female reporter has a bit of a headache, she still wants to say.

No wonder Mr. Hatano is a detective novelist, so he can really toss!
