Carol continued to look down.

The manuscript sent by Mr. A this time is about 100,000 words.

At present, Carol has only seen the beginning.

When she first got the manuscript, Carol was extremely excited and excited.

At this time, as she began to read, Carol was already immersed in the storyline,

As the plot develops, the emotions fluctuate, sometimes tense, and things are a little creepy.

This is probably a work with some horror elements and a weird style.

If she just saw the beginning, Carol would have thought that it might just be a story of a change in the protagonist's body.

The shadow disappears, and sometimes the shadow replaces the protagonist Chang Mo.

But when I saw Chang Mo go to the psychiatric hospital, the doctor's shadow also disappeared.

And then the story has changed.

This kind of change turned out to not only happen to Chang Mo, but also spread to many people at the same time.

What will the world become in the book?

Carol couldn't help but think outside of her mind,

Then I continued to immerse myself in the story and read on.

The further down you read,

The plot becomes more and more bizarre and creepy, with a strong sense of absurdity and a strong magical realism style.

Carol just watched from the office all the time,

The expression on his face changes from time to time, from time to time he is nervous, and from time to time he is startled.

Sometimes Tong Kong contracted, and sometimes he reached out to touch the cup next to the desk, but before his hand touched the cup, he paused again.

And the whole time, Carroll's eyes were never taken away from the computer screen.

I don't want to pull away from the "Shadow Empire" manuscript displayed on the screen.

finally

It's to see that the sky outside the office window has darkened,

Carol read it carefully.

After a pause, Carol wanted to re-read it from the beginning,

I really can't get enough of it, and I don't want to withdraw from the world in the book.

"Dongdong ......"

It's just that at this time, there was a knock on the office door,

Carol, who had been immersed in the plot of "Shadow Empire" before, was shocked,

After a pause, he raised his head.

"Editor-in-chief Carroll, have you read the manuscript sent by Mr. A?"

It was Lina who came into the office.

Lena cautiously pushed the offices away a little and whispered to Carol.

At the same time, there was some curiosity and expectation in his eyes looking at the computer screen in front of Carol.

As a loyal reader of ABC, she is also a little itchy at this time and wants to read Mr. A's new book.

It's just that at this moment, she stood in front of Carol, and naturally saw the computer screen in front of Carol,

And Carol doesn't seem to have the idea to let her read Mr. A's new book together.

"I took a cursory look at it, but I still missed a lot of details. I'll revisit it later. ”

Carol nodded, then looked out of the office,

"Everyone else is off work?"

"Yes, I'm also going to leave work, so I'm going to talk to Editor-in-Chief Carroll."

Lina nodded in reply, her gaze still falling on the computer where she couldn't see the screen.

“…… Well, then you'll get off work. I'm going to stay here for a while. ”

“…… I can't show you this manuscript yet, although you are also the editor of the publishing house, but the book has not officially signed a publishing contract with Mr. A, Mr. A just sent it to me, which is a trust in me.

So I'm sorry, but for the time being, I'll have to keep it a secret from anyone else. ”

Carol noticed Linna's gaze and said to Lina with a smile.

Lina nodded, expressing understanding, and then couldn't help but ask with some expectation,

"Editor-in-chief Carroll, how do you feel after reading Mr. A's book?"

"Of course it's good, this is Mr. A's new work, what's the doubt?"

"I have a hunch that this is a great book by Mr. A, like the Imperial Epic, no, maybe even better than the Imperial Epic. Even though Mr. A's work is already so good, it seems that Mr. A is still improving every time, which is really amazing! ”

Carol first smiled in response, then exclaimed with some exaggeration.

But he didn't think he was exaggerating at all, he was just ashamed of his expensive vocabulary, and he couldn't praise Mr. A's excellent new work.

But it's right to think about it, such an excellent work, Mr. A also spent so many words on writing,

Why did you simply summarize its excellence and greatness in a few words?

“…… That's really exciting. ”

Lina's eyes showed some longing and more expectation,

Carol's words made her even more itchy, and she wanted to see Mr. A's work as soon as possible.

It's just obvious that Carol is more insistent on this convenience, and it is impossible to give her the manuscript of the work at this time

Somewhat regrettably,

Lina can only hope that the editor-in-chief Carroll and Mr. A will negotiate the publication of this new book as soon as possible.

Then the new book will be published as soon as possible, so that she can also read the work.

"Then I'll go first, Mr. Carroll."

"Go ahead."

Lina turned and walked out of the office.

Carol looked at it, turned his head back again, and looked at the manuscript of "Shadow Empire" on the computer screen that had been redrawn by him to the beginning,

I was going to watch it again,

But if I look at the time in the lower right corner of the screen, it's a little late,

He thought it would be better to reply to Mr. A first.

Can't keep Mr. A too waiting.

……

“…… Auntie, it's a little itchy for you to pinch me like this. ”

Magic City.

After finishing the code, the hungry Ji Zhuo had already finished dinner.

At this time, he and Yun Qingmu were already going to the traditional Chinese medicine massage bone.

didn't pinch the shoulders, the two aunts were giving Ji Zhuo and Yun Qingmu foot massages.

Yun Qingmu still inhaled in pain, and from time to time he was a little itchy and shrunk his feet,

Ji Zhuo is different...... He's okay, at most it's grinning at some acupuncture points.

"Ding Dong ......"

Ji Zhuo's mobile phone message prompt rang.

Yun Qingmu raised his head and glanced at Ji Zhuo, Ji Zhuo touched his mobile phone and looked at it himself.

It was a message from Carol, and then she noticed Yun Qingmu's gaze,

Well, Ji Zhuo put down the phone again,

Too close, to avoid Yun Qingmu Yu Guang's glimpse, Ji Zhuo chose not to return for the time being.

"Ji Zhuo? What's wrong? ”

"It's alright, editor's message."

"Ding Dong ......"

"Ding Dong ......"

Carol sent several messages in a row,

Yun Qingmu threw his gaze at Ji Zhuo again, and tried to say with some caution,

"Ji Zhuo, do you want to go back."

"If you urge the draft, you don't need to reply."

Hearing Ji Zhuo's words, Yun Qingmu fell into deep thought,

After being silent for a while, I held back a sentence,

"So, Ji Zhuo, your new book ......"

"Hmm...... In writing. ”

Yun Qingmu fell into deep thought again.

……

"Carol: Mr. A, I've read the manuscript you sent me roughly.

Carol: Absolly, it's a great, excellent work!

carol: So Mr. A is still willing to hand over this excellent book to our publishing house for publication?

Carol: As always, Burt Press will do everything in its power to help you get your work published.

Clumsy and extraordinary: Absolutely. ”

When he had finished pressing his feet, he returned to his house,

Sitting on the couch in the room, Ji Zhuo sent a message back to Carol.

He sent the manuscript to Bert Press, so naturally he handed the book to Bert Press for publication.

"Carol: Thank you, Mr. A, for your trust, this is an honor for our publishing house.

Carol: We will do our best to make this excellent book return to its throne as soon as possible, so that more readers can read it!

carol：…… By the way, Mr. A, do you have any remaining manuscripts over there...... Well, just a private inquiry, as your reader, really looking forward to the story behind Shadow Empire.

Clumsy and Extraordinary: ......"
