"The Chair"?

After seeing the title of this mediocre novel, a group of Weibo netizens who were full of joy and waited patiently were very puzzled.

That's a common name, isn't it?

Don't they all say that the name is very important, and even many novelists are title parties, and in order to attract the audience, there are not a few who are not right.

Could it be that the tree man is doing the opposite, deliberately?

"What the hell is 'The Chair'?"

"I'm going to lose in momentum."

"Originally, I wasn't optimistic about the tree man, but now when I look at the title, I hehe."

"Horror literature still has to read Siam, we really can't do it in China."

"The tree man is already big, he is a newcomer, he dares to take on the challenge, and he will not fool people with something casually written."

"It is estimated that the line with Sha Chu is also to rub the heat, after all, he is a newcomer, it doesn't matter if he loses, he will be embarrassed if he doesn't dare to make a move."

"Sha Chufa" is here, because people have the ability, what does Shuren hair "just this" mean, this kid is crazy! ”

"It's crazy, I just don't know if it's justified to be crazy."

Just when many people thought that Shuren was very "arrogant", Zheng Yi immediately posted another Weibo.

"You said you wanted me to teach, so look at it, I'll only teach once."

Confused!

The guy who thought the treants were arrogant just now was stunned.

Because if it was crazy just now, then what is this Weibo?

Is this going to be turned upside down?

The tree man really plans to teach Sha Chu to write a book!

People can only come to this conclusion, this kid really didn't take Sha Chu seriously.

Where did he get his confidence?

Of course, others don't know, because this self-confidence comes from the work.

The short story he released was called "The Chair".

In fact, the original name of this work was "Human Chair", which is a bit Japanese, so Zheng Yi changed it slightly and made it more concise.

And the author of "The Human Chair" is the famous Edogawa Ranbu!

That's right, the reason why the Grim Reaper elementary school students named themselves Edogawa Conan was in honor of the two masters of reasoning.

Conan Doyle and Edogawa Ranbu.

This is a figure who is known as the three masters of island reasoning together with Matsumoto Kiyohari and Yokozo Masashi.

He is also known as the father of reasoning in the island nation.

Keigo Higashino, who was later known as the king of reasoning by readers, would have to shout if he could meet this grandfather, and the starting point of Keigo Higashino's road to fame was to win the first place in the 31st "Ranbu Award".

It can be seen that this person's strength and status in the literary world.

And this short story called "The Human Chair" was first included in the "Fifteen Declension Reasoning".

But among these fifteen short stories, the popularity of "The Human Chair" is unparalleled.

Not only has it been remade many times, but even Junji Ito, a famous "underworld" manga artist in the island country, has drawn a short manga specifically for it.

The reason why this "Human Chair" is famous is that in addition to the common suspense core of mystery novels, more people who will read it feel restless!

Fear is the final impression of this book on the reader.

Zheng Yi took out this novel just to crush Sha Chu!

In the office of the Black Hole Literature Platform, Zheng Yuan was uneasy at this time.

He was really flustered.

Although he signed several powerful authors after becoming a regular, the trump card in his hand is still only one treeman.

But now this ace uncle is openly playing against overseas masters, and the outcome is unpredictable.

I kept refreshing Weibo with my heart, just waiting for the short story of the two to be released.

As soon as "Back 2" appeared, Zheng Yuan finished reading the full text, and then his heart was cold.

Trouble!

He has read the short stories written by the tree man, whether it is the short stories in "The Law of the Zoo" or "The Strange Tales of China", take them out individually, and the quality is definitely a first-class masterpiece.

But before Sha Chu's article, there was a line missing.

"It's over, it's over, the tree man teacher is going to overturn!"

And at this moment, he saw the Weibo posted by Shuren.

"Look, I'll only teach once."

This momentum, this confidence...... It was indeed like the words of the Treant.

But he is so confident, can he really defeat Sha Chu?

Zheng Yuan hurriedly checked Weibo.

The Chair......

One minute.

Two minutes.

Three-minute ...... Zheng Yuan's face changed, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily lifted up.

"This, this is ......"

Then he got up and ran to the editor-in-chief's office, stumbling, and almost fell.

"Editor-in-chief, Mr. Shuren's new work is here!"

The editor-in-chief is applying watermelon cream to his tongue, and the hot bubbles when he learned that the tree man was going to line up with Sha Chu a few days ago have not been good.

"Coming out?"

"How's that, is it of high quality?"

The editor-in-chief is also panicking, after all, the ancient tomb of the big guy on this site has already lost, and if the tree man loses again, the reputation loss will be too great.

"See for yourself...... But it's best to stand and watch, not sit on the couch. ”

The editor-in-chief looked at Zheng Yuan suspiciously, do you still have to stand and read this article?

What's wrong!

"Just believe me, you'll know after reading it."

With a stomach full of incomprehension, the editor-in-chief Wu Chengcheng opened this short horror novel called "The Chair".

Every morning at ten o'clock, I saw my husband go to work at the government office, and after that, I finally had time for myself, so Yoshiko locked herself in the study she shared with her husband. She is currently working on a feature story for the summer special issue of K Magazine. ”

"Yoshiko is a beautiful female writer who has become famous for a while, and her edge even overshadows her husband as a secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. She receives several letters from strange admirers almost every day. ”

The editor-in-chief nodded slightly, the beginning of this article was concise and clear, and the heroine's profession and what she was doing were poured out for the first time.

And this writing seems to be much better than the previous two.

The Treants have progressed!

"She started with a simple process, and after reading two letters and a postcard, all she had left was a heavy envelope that looked like a manuscript."

Yoshiko received a heavy letter that resembled a manuscript.

When I opened it, I found that the letter was not signed or lettered, but began with the title of "Madame".

Obviously, this is a letter addressed to Yoshiko.

At the beginning of this manuscript, it is stated that the content of the letter is that the person who calls himself "me" confesses to Yoshiko about the bizarre crimes he has committed so far.

"I" claimed that he was ugly, and the text revealed a full inferiority complex.

But at the same time, he also showed himself to be a very good chairmaker, hand-customizing high-end chairs for wealthy guests.

He makes chairs that will delight even the most discerning guests and are an art.

And after making each chair, he will experience it for the first time and reap the supreme happiness.

Gradually, however, he would imagine what it would be like to deliver the chair to the guest.

Imagine a noble son, a beautiful woman sitting on it.

Every time he thinks about this, he feels extremely inferior to his ugliness, and the emptiness of the work is about to leave him, which makes him feel tormented.

So, when it came to creating a set of large leather armchairs, which are similar to today's high-end chairs, the craftsman came up with a bold idea!

He hollowed out the wide chairs, fitted the interior with partitions and brackets, and designed slots for ventilation and rubber bags for excretion.

That's right, the craftsman intends to hide himself in the chair!

Food and water were ready, the back partition was opened, which only he knew was free to enter and exit, and the craftsman hid in his chair.

He became part of the chair!

The chair was transported to a well-known hotel and placed in the lounge.

From then on, the craftsman began to "experience" the various men and women who sat on it.

Every time someone sits down, he will use his body to feel the other person's weight, body temperature, body curve, and slight movements.

Listen to other people's voices and conversations.

Even joys and sorrows, as well as various emotions.

Politician, businessman, well-known writer, well-known dancer......

The craftsman experienced the temperature brought by others at zero distance, which made him feel very satisfied.

"That's too perverted, isn't it?" The editor-in-chief couldn't help but exclaim!

Hide in a chair and spy on others.

This mentality and behavior is simply twisted to the extreme.

But the craftsman in the text knows this, but he still can't extricate himself.

Soon after, the restaurant was sold and the seats were auctioned off due to the different positioning of the new owners.

After a difficult time, the chair was finally bought and made to an official's home.

The hostess of the house was gentle and beautiful, and whenever she sat in a chair, the craftsman always felt that she was embracing each other.

The feeling of being able to smell each other's body fragrance fascinated him, and he even felt that he was in love with the hostess.

Finally, after a while, the craftsman could no longer hold back his emotions, and he decided to confess his heart to the other party.

At night, he opened his chair and slipped out of the house and threw his handwritten letters into the mailbox.

Right.

This letter from the craftsman is the thick manuscript in Yoshiko's hand!

Rub!

The editor-in-chief, who was reading the book, instantly felt a chill extending from his little toe, passing through his body at an unimaginable speed and heading straight to the Heavenly Spirit Gai!

The ears are buzzing, as if there are hundreds of millions of autumn cicadas chirping.

This sudden turn of events scared him out of his mind.

"The letter in the hand of the heroine was written by the craftsman, that is...... The craftsman is in Yoshiko's home, in the chair she uses every day! ”

"And just a few seconds ago, Yoshiko was sitting in this chair."

"It was a sudden turn of events...... No, the turn of events was not sudden, but hinted at for a long time. ”

"At the beginning of the article, it was written that Yoshiko's husband was a clerk of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the craftsman's letter also wrote that the chair had been sold to a family of eunuchs."

"From the very beginning, Mr. Shuren laid the groundwork!"

The editor-in-chief sweated in his head.

Cold sweat.

The unexpected impact made the middle-aged man almost bite his frothy tongue.

But at this time, he found that the article was not over.

"Ma'am, there is your letter."

Just when Yoshiko was frightened, another letter arrived.

Tang suddenly sent a letter and looked at Haihan. I usually like the teacher's work very much, and the manuscript I sent before is my jerky creation, if the teacher can read it and give advice and criticism, it is really a great honor. For some reason, the manuscript was submitted before this letter was written, and the teacher may have read it, but I don't know how it feels? If the clumsy work can move the teacher one or two, I will be infinitely happy. ”

Hey, it's reversed again!

The new letter indicates that the "letter from the craftsman" was written by a fan of Yoshiko.

And its content is not real, it is just the creation of the other party.

Because I admired Jiazi, I sent it to her, and I wanted her to look at it and give advice.

"Whew...... It scared me, it turned out to be a novel! ”

The editor-in-chief picked up a tissue and wiped the cold sweat: "Writing a novel in a novel, this idea is invincible." ”

After calming down for a few seconds, the editor-in-chief was stunned for a moment, and then ecstatic!

He pulled up Zheng Yuan, who was looking forward to the side, and shook his hand vigorously.

"Tree man teacher, cow beep!"

"That's the end of that sand Chu's arrogance!"

"Such a perverted character, how did Mr. Shuren come up with it, could it be that he is a pervert himself...... Ahem. ”

"That god turn scared me, but luckily it was taken back at the end, which made me feel a lot easier."

"It's a genius!"

Zheng Yuan looked at the excited editor-in-chief, but was silent for a few seconds, and then spoke cautiously.

"Editor-in-chief, didn't you notice something unusual about this ending?"
