Chapter 222: The Chaos of French Writers

Blois froze in place, and from Garian's unkind tone, he heard another, more unfriendly threat. A fear that spread throughout his body quickly took over his heart.

He has to pay the price for his arrogant words and deeds!

The whole person suddenly seemed like a deflated ball, almost slumped on the chair, Yusman quickly supported his paralyzed friend, and said indignantly, "If this is your revenge, Lord Garion, you have achieved your goal." Look at this poor fellow, he can barely afford to pay the rent. Have you lost your conscience? ”

"Who said I got there?"

Garion held up the blank paper in his hand and replied solemnly, "Listen, Lord Blois, I will not stop accusing you until you are ruined." I don't care how bad your life is, I just know that you annoy me. ”

He bent down slightly, squinted his eyes at the villain of the six gods and no masters, and said with a sneer, "See you in court next week, so you can do it yourself." ”

Once Garian reached Blois's ears with the lawsuit, the mission was complete. As for what the other party will do next, it has nothing to do with him.

Anyway, his purpose is to make an example of the monkeys, and the next time the ants who want to climb up the ladder on their own prestige will see the fate of the sleeping dragon, they will at least weigh their own level.

"Let's go, Barrister Gambi."

Garion turned to go out, and Gambida followed him, walking through the peeling hallway and out of the crumbling building.

Gan Bida couldn't bear it, he approached Garion and whispered, "Wait, Lord Garion, do you really want to complain about him?" Blois did not have a good life, and if the prosecution was successful, he could be saddled with huge debts. And you cost two thousand francs for this mental damage...... It's ......."

It was also the first time he had heard of such an indemnity, which was unreliable from the point of view of imperial law.

But Garion didn't even think about prosecuting him through formal channels.

"So do I deserve to be trampled on by such a villain? Deserving wealth and prestige? Deserving to be a famous writer? ”

The rhetorical question that was eloquent made Gan Bida stunned in place.

Poverty was not a reason for him to do evil. A writer who can write great poems has nothing to do with whether he himself is a scumbag or not. I'm teaching a damn villain, not a writer who makes a living. ”

Gan Bida had nothing to say, he looked at the tall back in front of him, and his understanding of him gradually blurred.

He had compassion for the workers and the poor.

There is also cruelty to nobles and villains.

He has a talented nib.

There is also the common one who laughs and scolds.

A complex, unpredictable person.

"Your Excellency."

He suddenly opened his mouth and brought him back from his contemplation.

Garion didn't look back, but said to Gambita, who was behind him, "As an unreligious Catholic, he should pay the price for what he did." ”

The shutters in the southwest corner of the fifth floor were half opened, and Yusman, who was standing at the window, looked at the two backs in the distance downstairs, and couldn't help but clench his fists.

He trembled with rage.

I have never seen a writer with such an arrogant attitude.

At this time, Blois sat on the chair, and his heart was half cold. Lowered like a defeated warrior, his frustrated gaze focused on the indictment.

Five minutes ago, he was still in high spirits.

And now, like a soldier who has just finished a defeated battle, he can't hold his head up.

It was the first time he had seen a writer like Garion who would put people who had offended him to death. After all, in the literary world, there are not a few incidents of peers falling into each other's hands and falling into the well.

In his advanced years, Chateaubriand, who was always surrounded by praise, also felt the ambition of the young writers in the salon of Abeau-bois. He did not admire Lamartine, and considered writers nourished by Romanticism to be ungrateful.

When BΓ©lange and Lalls were already in their prime, they were still ruthlessly hindering the growth of young writers, and the alcoholic Samuel unfortunately bore the brunt. Condi satirizes Lamartine as the old sun god, Sainte-Beuve mocks Hugo and Balzac as the laggards of the times, and Alexandre Dumas satirizes Neval as a strange madman. Edmont wrote an article mocking Maupassant's venereal disease, destroying his popularity.

Stripped of their dazzling literary aura, these writers are nothing more than ordinary people, and may even be villains with dirty morals.

He just scolded Garion a few times, thinking of taking the opportunity to rub off on the heat. Who knew that the other party bit him fiercely, and he was willing to give up if he didn't die.

"What should I do? Husman, what should I do? ”

Blois grabbed Hussman's hand and said in a panic, "He's going to sue me!" This bastard is going to sue me! ”

Forced to helplessly, Yusman suppressed his crazy friend and comforted, "Calm down, my friend. ”

Husman let go of Blois's hand and sighed. I had reminded him before that Garion was not a character to provoke casually, but I didn't expect retribution to be fulfilled on him so quickly.

"The priority is how to deal with this lawsuit. Although writers have defamed each other before, no one has ever been brought to court for a single criticism or humiliation. At least the judge won't make a decision lightly. ”

Husman calmly comforted his friend, but he didn't expect anything else.

Garion is not going to fight a lawsuit as a writer, he will use all the connections at his disposal to knock Blois into the abyss.

"On the other hand, that's a good thing, my friend."

Husman explained to him, "For writers who have tasted success, the fear of being abandoned by readers has become a lingering worry in their hearts, and in the face of the respect of others, they are arrogant on the surface, but they are cautious on the inside, and they are afraid that what they fear will happen one day, and writers who think they are great are extremely sensitive to the bad intentions of those around them, and always think that others want to drive them out of the palace of literary celebrity." ”

Hussman said seriously, "I think you should go to someone, maybe he can save you." ”

"Who is it?"

Blois asked hurriedly, his eyes that had lost their light rekindled with hope, and he grasped Hussman's hand as if grasping at the last straw.

Ursman's hand was caught, and he pushed Blois's hand away, and said calmly, "Senator who has had a conflict with Garian, Your Excellency MΓ©rimΓ©e. Maybe he can help you. ”
