Chapter 17: Give it to me

Song Wanqing's answer made Yu Zheng a little surprised. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

He knew that the country was now the golden age of mystery novels, and the novels of Conan Doyle and Agatha Christie were extremely popular in the country, with high sales and a print run of one or two million.

But the book he wrote is, after all, a book of the future, and he is not sure whether readers in this era like this ancient detective style or not.

Although from the point of view of content, the use of forensic science knowledge to infer the facts of the case is novel enough in similar books of this era, the works of the masters of the Golden Age that are now popular do not have detailed works on this topic, and some of the ancient forensic science techniques mentioned from time to time in the book to solve the case can make readers feel unclear at the first reading.

"It turns out that our ancestors were so powerful more than a thousand years ago!" Even twenty years later, after this divine drama is broadcast in China, there will still be many viewers who have made similar exclamations when watching it, and of course, Song Ci deserves such an exclamation.

The most important thing is that there is also Song Ci's gimmick that is easy to hype.

After all, in this era, the country is backward, and the more backward the period, the stronger the national self-esteem of the Chinese people.

They are particularly sensitive to the title of 'number one in the world'.

Also extremely excited.

And Song Ci happened to have the title of the world's No. 1, he is recognized as the originator of forensic science in the world, and the author of the world's first forensic science monograph "Collection of Grievances".

Especially since this character is not yet famous.

Unlike the Bao Gong case, Shi Gong case, and Hai Gong case, there are a large number of stories circulating among the people like the ancient public case novels, because of the lack of records, his deeds are almost unheard, and then use the penmanship of modern speculative novels to write this kind of ancient public case, in this case, let this person, let this person's story, have an extremely strong sense of freshness.

As for whether these stories are true or not, readers don't really care too much.

Is the Bao Gong case real?

Is Sherlock Holmes real?

For a popular book, it is important to look good.

Yu Zheng is confident that the book "The Criminal Officer of the Great Song Dynasty" can succeed in this era, because even after deducting all the gimmicks about Song Ci, this is a good enough and wonderful book.

But the unknown is the unknown after all, and no one dares to say 100% that it will happen until it happens.

Many writers have the habit of showing the chapters they have just finished to other people and asking for their opinions - 'Is my book good?' or 'Am I not very good here?' 'Shouldn't I write that?' And so on. Even George Martin, after writing the first few chapters of "A Song of Ice and Fire" in the 90s, couldn't wait to read it to his friends, and even hesitated to ask his friends if he should add the element of "dragon" to the book.

For Yu Zheng, he also hopes that someone can read the book he wrote, and hopes that someone can give him some advice from the perspective of readers in this era.

His table mates seemed to be the best candidates.

Song Wanqing was a little strange why her table mate would ask such a question.

She didn't understand why Song Ci's story suddenly became related to Sherlock Holmes.

And Yu Zheng thought for a while before he spoke: "I have a reluctant request......" He said while pondering his words, speaking a little slowly, he felt that he should be tactful, after all, it was quite presumptuous to let others read the book he wrote.

After all, there is so much homework in high school, and other people's time is limited.

"Oh, you just say something, why did you suddenly become so spittering, this is not like you!"

Song Wan's crisp voice sounded, and there seemed to be some playful impatience in her tone.

As soon as she finished saying this, Song Wanqing herself was taken aback, because she would only use this tone when talking to her family or very close friends, in front of people she didn't know, she had always maintained a gentle and ladylike image, and she was very reserved in her words and actions.

But when she was talking just now, facing Yu Zheng, she blurted out without thinking too much.

It's like when she talks to her very close friends.

"It's rare to see her speak so directly......"

Such a thought flashed through Yu Zheng's mind, and he didn't think too much about it, since the beauties at the same table said so, no matter how hesitant he was, he was too petty.

So he also said bluntly.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Actually, it's a very simple thing, didn't I write the beginning of a novel? Similar to the Sherlock Holmes type, but I don't know how to write it, so I want to find someone to help me read it, and give some comments by the way. ā€

"What's this?"

Song Wanqing smiled after hearing this.

For her, it was just a trifle.

She stretched out a white palm and shook it in front of Yu Zheng, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, with a smile in the corners of her eyes, and said with a somewhat proud expression: "Give it to me, let Teacher Song give you a review!" ā€

Listening to the beautiful women at the same table, Yu Zheng is also a pleasure, and it is the first time he has seen such a playful side of the other party.

"Then the student is waiting for the teacher's axe!"

When he spoke, Yu Zheng also looked respectful, and handed his notebook to Song Wanqing's hands with both hands, making himself look like a student.

"Well, the children are teachable!"

Song Wanqing smiled and nodded with satisfaction.

"Haha!"

Then the two looked at each other and laughed as if they had a heart.

Song Wanqing felt that she was very happy.

There's no reason, it's just that I'm happy.

Although she felt that the 'story of Song Ci' written by her table mate might not be very good-looking, she was still inexplicably happy when she heard that the other party asked her to help him read the beginning of the novel he wrote. For no reason, I was happy for no reason, and it was as if everything in front of me suddenly became brightly colored.

When Song Wanqing took the notebook handed to her by Yu Zheng, she thought silently that if the writing was too poor, she must be tactful in her tone after a while, and she couldn't make him too discouraged.

"So much!"

When she just opened Yu Zheng's notebook, Song Wanqing was also taken aback.

Originally, what she thought was that the 'beginning of the novel' that her table mate said was only a few pages at most, but from the thickness of more than 20 pages, it seemed that there was a big difference from her original idea.

Turn to the first page.

It reads the familiar poem "Man Jianghong", and there are three lines of space under this poem, and the title of this novel is written.

"The Criminal Officer of the Great Song Dynasty."

Song Wanqing silently read out this name, which was extremely unfamiliar to her.
