Narrative trickery, or narrative trickery for short, is a depiction of the genre of fiction.

This type of fiction is not focused on how to devise a ruse, or focus on alibi or something, this kind of mystery novel is a play on words, and a symbol and a word in the book may be the key to solving the case.

It's like reasoning Queen Christie's "The Mystery of Roger", the "I" in the first-person narration of the article, even if it is not the protagonist, is an important supporting role, just like Watson, but in "The Mystery of Roger", Zuihou's murderer is "I", how can the reader guess?

Do you read the novel and guess that the murderer is the "me" in the article? This is obviously negative, due to the limitations of ordinary people's thinking, most people will not guess like this, and this is what Narrative often likes to use.

"Dong Dong Suspension Bridge Falling" can be said to be a masterpiece of narrative fiction, simply put, it is a classic of playing with words, but this way of writing is a bit cheap, well, in fact, there are not some but very cheap.

When the mystery of this kind of text itself is revealed, there is a feeling that the sword is going off the edge, and some preparations can make good use of it, which is convincing, but "Dong Dong Suspension Bridge Falling" is the opposite, obviously the sword is on the side, and he still uses this underbeat tone, so as expected, Su Shichen successfully aroused public indignation......

in residential buildings.

"Be quiet upstairs."

"I'm sorry, I'll pay attention to that."

There was silence for a while, but after a while it sounded again.

"Upstairs ......"

"I'm sorry. I'll definitely pay attention. ”

This time it was quieter for a longer time, but then there was a crackling sound like tearing down a house, and the battle was even bigger.

As the saying goes, you can't do it again. So the family downstairs exploded.

"Upstairs, I said that you are endless, you are noisy at night, if you don't sleep, do you still let people not sleep."

"I don't want to, but this book is so disgusting, I can't help it, disgusting author!"

The book mentioned in the dialogue is undoubtedly "Knock Knock Drawbridge Falling". The resident upstairs felt that he had been teased again and again because of reading the book, and finally couldn't bear to flip the table for the third time.

It's all because of "Knock Knock Suspension Bridge Falling". It's all because of Su Shichen that the neighborhood relationship has deteriorated, so this resident secretly cursed the author named Su Shichen in his heart.

hospital

Except for the senior ward, which is a separate room, the other wards are occupied by several people. There are several patients. However, there was only one TV in the ward, so there were also some books and some comics for the patients to watch.

As a result, one of the patients got the book "Knock Knock Drawbridge Falling" and ......

"Hey, what are you doing, the injury on your hand is not healed yet, weishenme pounded the table with his hand, so that the wound will crack and it will hurt even more." A strange scene appeared. The patient seemed to have a sudden neuropathy, pounding the table with his fists, scolding while pounding.

"What the hell is this mystery fiction. This is also called a mystery novel, and it is completely an Izu dancing girl, ugly and expensive. ”

This scene is a precursor to mad cow disease, and the nurse thinks that the patient is nervous, or that the wound on his hand has metastasized to the head, anyway, whatever the reason, she quickly called the attending doctor.

Zuihou after investigation, it is a book called "Dong Dong Suspension Bridge Falling", this patient just pounded the table fiercely, so that the wound on his hand worsened, originally Jihua could be discharged from the hospital in a week, but now it will be a month, so this patient secretly cursed the author named Su Shichen in his heart.

library

Every place has its own rules, such as hospitals requiring patients to recuperate, residential buildings and neighbors should have harmonious relations, and libraries have rules that read books quietly and do not make loud noises.

Suddenly there was a commotion in the originally quiet library: "What are you doing, classmate, the books in the library can't be damaged." ”

Well, this classmate was also too angry because he read the answer to the reasoning of "Knock Knock Suspension Bridge Falling", and he couldn't help his anger for a while, and wanted to tear the book off.

According to the person who was reading the book near this classmate at the time, when he tore the book, he said something like this: "It's really hateful that the current mystery novels are so good that they don't go down the road, but they want to play clever tricks to deceive readers." ”

Because of "Dongdong Suspension Bridge Falling", this classmate lost a small amount of pocket money, so he secretly cursed the author named Su Shichen in his heart.

Stations, classrooms, waiting rooms, and other places all seem to be playing out the same scene, if the curse can be realized, then Su Shichen would have been stripped of his heart by a thousand knives.

"Knock Knock Suspension Bridge Falling" pits all over the island country......

Noosan Press

"President, are we trying to promote another book?" The editor-in-chief wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"What's wrong? Bad sales? Wang Jiaxuan asked.

"The sales are very good, but the word of mouth is good." The editor-in-chief opened the largest book review network exchange area in the island country, including the mystery novel section.

The crudely shocking evaluations-

"The story of "The Fall of the Knock Knock Bridge" is so murderous that I cited this Chinese author to write it specifically to test the perseverance of readers in our island countries. Those who don't have great perseverance can't finish reading.

Knock knock suspension bridge down, vast sea of trees burning, Ferrari sees it, Yi Yuan's family collapses, unexpected murderer, how many stories do you stick to? What rank of samurai are you (only supporting one story Saigo Takamori, two stories Date Masamune, three stories Hijikata Toshizo, four stories Yagyu Jubei, and five stories Okita Soji)? ”

"My willpower needs to be honed, Date Masamune level, in fact, I want to become Okita General Secretary level, but I really can't stand it, I don't think it's a mystery novel, but a willpower test question."

"Hijikata is three years old, in fact, I saw the third story, and when Ferrari saw it, I just tore the book off. Zuihou's answer is completely funny, is this a novel that people read? How could the first place of the Mephistopheles Award be this, this pit man is not. ”

"Okita General Director-General. After reading it, I don't know what to call at all, is this really a mystery novel? There is no trickery at all, and there is no rigorous alibi. ”

"Actually, it's not bad, it's interesting, but the solution is too unexpected."

"This is a ninety-six-and-a-half mystery novel? I didn't feel anything special at all, and if nausea was a feature, then the book was very distinctive, and I finally understood a little bit about the hearts of the Memphis Award judges. They must have been disgusted by the review as well, and then felt indignant, so they pushed the novel out. ”

"It's definitely a great idea. Well, I also decided, and I decided to recommend this book to my enemies. ”

"It's really a lot of gods, and there are even people who have reached Okita Soji, and poor me is Saigo Takamori."

……

This is on the web. Then there are the letters sent by the readers. The above is all faint, and the words of scolding and scolding within the eight Ga can be said to be the retribution of the pit readers.

"President, look at it, whether it's a letter from a reader or an evaluation on the Internet, this "Dongdong Suspension Bridge Falling" can be said to be bad to a peak, so let's dump the propaganda resources on "Incompletely Crime"." This is the suggestion of the editor-in-chief of Noosan Press.

Wang Jiaxuan thought for a while, and then said very decisively: "Not only should we not tear down "Dongdong Suspension Bridge Falling", but also increase publicity. Get the word out about this novel. ”

The editor-in-chief found it incomprehensible and was scolded like this. We also have to increase our efforts to publicize, isn't this lighting in the toilet and looking for death ()?!

The reason why Wang Jiaxuan is so decisive is, of course, not just out of trust in Su Shichen, as a president, every decision is about the entire publishing house, so it is naturally impossible to be so willful.

The main reason is because she also watched "Dong Dong Suspension Bridge Falling", and then her first reaction was to scold people, but after reading it, she felt quite new in retrospect, and she had seen enough of the complex structure of tricks and complex character relationships to make mystery mystery novels, and then looked at "Dong Dong Suspension Bridge Falling" It really has a refreshing feeling.

It's like being used to eating big fish and meat, and it's good to occasionally have a little fresh wild vegetables, which is the fundamental reason why the Weishenme market is scolded, but the sales have increased by leaps and bounds.

Wang Jiaxuan called and told Su Shichen about it, and Su Shichen on the other end of the phone seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and then tightly passed an announcement about the author.

Wang Jiaxuan smiled after reading the announcement, and without any delay, in the name of the publishing house, released Su Shichen's [Author's Notice].

[Author's Notice]

How to say it, reasoning is originally a broad and profound theme, with many categories, and I call this type of novel "Dong Dong Suspension Bridge Falling" a narrative trick, to put it simply, it is a narrative trick, and the purpose of setting a trick in the article is achieved through words, I hope that readers can accept this way.

Okay, Su Shichen is planning to directly use "Dong Dong Suspension Bridge Falling" to open up the rhythm of the school in the category of mystery novels, although there is a lot of scolding now, but Su Shichen is not worried at all, since the Mephistopheles Award judges dare to give such a high score, it proves that there are still people who know the goods.

The emergence of new things is subject to controversy, just as Copernicus's heliocentrism hundreds of years ago was regarded as heresy at the time, and when Queen Christie's "The Mystery of Roger" came out, it was also questioned by many people, thinking that this novel was unfair to readers.

But all this will turn into floating clouds, heliocentrism will eventually replace geocentrism, and "The Mystery of Roger" will eventually become a classic.

It can be called yujian, "Knock Dong Suspension Bridge Falling" will be called the originator novel of narrative mystery novels.

Now there is a lot of scolding because the readers did not accept it, so Su Shichen issued an announcement, giving an accurate definition and name of this way of writing, so that readers can accept it more quickly.

Sure enough, as Su Shichen expected, after a day of scolding, one by one the reasoning masters stood up and made a very high evaluation of "Dongdong Suspension Bridge Falling".

First of all, the famous reasoning master Takashiro Mori who came out of the Mephistopheles Award -

"To be ...... without the author's bad taste to tease the reader" (to be continued......
