Chapter 12: The Literary Accomplishment of the Qing Burial (oẅo and Asking for Votes)

Japan's Matsumoto Kiyohari, Britain's Arthur Conan Doyle and Agatha Christie are known as the three grandmasters of the world's mystery novels.

What is embarrassing is that there is no existence of these three people in the Demon Slayer World.

Of course, there may not be any other writers, but Qing Fu didn't care.

Agatha Christie was born on September 15, 1890, and pioneered the "country house school" of detective fiction, in which the murder takes place in a specific enclosed environment, and the murderer is also one of several specific associates.

Qing Fu remembers that in his previous life, many detective works in Europe, America and even Japan also used this model.

Through the investigation of the Bloodstained Society in the United Kingdom, the burial can confirm that Agatha does not exist in the world of demon destruction.

Although Matsumoto Kiyohari only published his debut novel "Saigo Banknotes" in 1950, it is not possible to speculate whether this person existed.

But the burial can go to the hometown of Kiyohari Matsumoto, Hiroshima, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan, and other places. It was confirmed that the person did not exist.

Not to mention Conan Doyle, whose first major work was the detective novel A Study in Scarlet Letters, published in the 1887 Beaton Christmas Yearbook, in which the protagonist of what would become famous Sherlock Holmes.

And now Conan Doyle is also quite famous, but there is still no trace of this person's existence in the Qing burial.

The burial also revealed a non-existent writer.

Howard Philip Lovecraft is an American writer of horror, science fiction and fantasy novels, especially for his weird novels.

Its most famous work was a series of novels that came to be known as the "Cthulhu Mythos".

Although Lovecraft's readership remained small during his lifetime, his fame grew after his death.

In the 21st century, Lovecraft was regarded as one of the most influential horror novelists of the twentieth century.

However, there are many people who continue to write it, and finally forge the Cthulhu Mythos.

For example, the four attributes were added later by Auguste Dresser, and this setting was always controversial in the original party, because he was a Christian, and in the process of systematizing the legend of Cthulhu, he added the dualism of good and evil to the outer gods and the old gods, and the opposition of the four attributes, which were often attacked by the original party

Although Lovecraft was not well-known before his release, he was once a loyal reader. The burial also made a special trip to 194 Ingres Street in Providence to look for it, but apparently the burial was not found.

"So, there are still a lot of novels to choose from." Qing Fu thought about it, "The Cthulhu Mythos system will definitely not adapt to the current era, so let's rule this out for now." ”

After all, it has already happened once in history, and the burial is not stupid.

"If it is released in Japan......" Kiyoki pondered for a while.

"Well, let's start with "A Study in Scarlet Letters" to create the character of Sherlock Holmes." Plans have been made for the burial.

The Sherlock Holmes series is an absolute timeless classic.

The burial remembers that in "The Last Case", Doyle had Sherlock Holmes buried at Reichenbach Falls with his sworn enemy, Professor Moriarty. The ending of the novel surprises the reader, who does not want to believe that the detective died like this, and many people in London at that time wore black armbands to commemorate Sherlock Holmes, and even women scolded Conan Doyle for being a brute.

After that, Doyle really had no choice but to finally let Holmes "resurrect" again

To be honest, Qing Fu still likes this fictional detective very much.

Aloof, withdrawn, and opinionated, but also has a sense of humor, and admits to being fond of pranks.

Although he is reluctant to reveal his great achievements, sometimes he will be proud when he hears people talk about it.

The burial can still completely remember the memories of the previous life, after all, it is a reformed person.

And if you create a character well, you can also make a guest appearance in other novels.

The point is that it is now the time for Dongying to worship Western culture, and a foreign protagonist is still very eye-catching.

In fact, there were already fountain pens in the Taisho era, but compared to the previous life, it was really not good.

Therefore, some people still prefer to write with a brush.

Qing Fu must have been a novel written in English and intended to be published in the Beijing Weekly.

"Let the group translate." The burial was suddenly put on a shelf.

Writing with a fountain pen is naturally not as fast as typing in the previous life.

It took two days to restore the novel perfectly, after all, the novella is not too long, unlike some online articles in later generations that are tens of millions of words incomplete.

Although "A Study of the Scarlet Letter" is Doyle's debut novel.

But this has a complex narrative technique, and the narrative technique is perfect.

In terms of narrative layout, this novella is divided into two parts, with seven chapters in each part. The narrative sequence of the first part is: Watson gets to know Sherlock Holmes - Sherlock Holmes's reasoning method - the murder occurs - the patrol police statement - the suspected murderer appears - the policeman's investigation statement - the murderer is arrested. The second part is: Tracing the Motive for the Murder - Watson's Supplement - Sherlock Holmes explains the reasoning process.

The occurrence of the murder can be used as a boundary to divide the entire narrative into three parts.

These burials are very clear, and he has seen the Sherlock Holmes series many times.

"It's just a pen name." Qing Fu thought for a while.

"Let's call it Qingming Festival", the name of the burial is still very arbitrary.

"Dark fasting." The funeral calls for the villa doorman, and he is also the strongest person at present.

Dark Issai was originally the successor of the Tokyo Prefecture Piercing One Blade genre. The physical fitness and will are really terrifying, and they are even non-human.

Only used a knife to hack to death a few S-class meows, which made the burial a little incredible.

Sure enough, it was finally put into the origin of the Dragon War virus, absorbing the most RC cells.

Therefore, Qing Fu also handed over the Soul Slayer and the Ghost Mask to Dark Ishaisai.

The name of Dark Ichizai's Soul Slashing Knife is Heavenly Arbitrary Order, and the ability to solve the problem is to summon the body of a giant ghost-faced warrior to attack. And for a period of time, it exaggerates his movement speed and vitality.

* After the liberation, the ghost-faced samurai has eight gold-patterned arms, and his armor is also engraved with gold-patterned, and there is a huge roulette wheel behind him, and he holds a giant sword that controls the eight genera of wood, fire, water, earth, metal, wind, ice, and thunder.

Yes, Dark Zhai can be completely solved in such a short period of time, but unfortunately he is not proficient in the operation of the knife now.

Moreover, there is a fatal drawback of the * solution, that is, the cooling is long and the use time is short.

"The subordinates are here." Wearing a ghost mask, Dark Ichizai emerges from the shadow of the table.

"Now." Qing Fu packed the manuscript, handed it to Dark Yizhai and said, "Send this to the Beijing Weekly." ”

Dark, put away the manuscript and went into the shadows.

"Hmm." Qing Fu stretched.

"I haven't slept for two days to finish writing a novel.

Although the burial does not require rest.

"Now, let's make a cup of coffee."
