Chapter 304: The Last Case, Book Fan Riot (Part 2)

Not everyone has seen the story of Sherlock Holmes, but everyone has at least heard of the name and understood its meaning, just like the party scene tonight.

The slightly fat girl quietly hid and eavesdropped on the conversation between Liu Jingting and Kang Lingyue, trying to discover a big news to make her famous gossip building. However, before the two of them finished speaking, she collapsed first, which was enough to show the popularity of this detective story.

Liu Jingting and Kang Lingyue stood in the corner of the hall one after another, until someone noticed him, and shouted in a complicated tone: "Liu Jingting."

Then everyone turned to look at him, some were angry, some were puzzled, some were confused, some were confused, and some were confused.

Liu Jingting faced everyone's eyes in a daze, and then asked Gao Shu: "I'm singing?"

Gao Shu "ah", then walked forward a few steps and asked, "The gossip floor said, are you going to write Sherlock Holmes to death?"

Liu Jingting also "ah" and shook his head and smiled, "This is where it is. The story has just begun. I don't know what's going on later. I know about the Bagua Tower?"

Gao Shu was stunned for a moment and said, "That should be a rumor."

The atmosphere at the scene was relieved, and many people breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Jingting secretly complained of shame, and was also surprised: "China is already like this, let alone Britain."

Liu Jingting smiled and shook his head, then glanced at Yang Lilu, and Yang Lilu looked guilty and quickly avoided Liu Jingting's gaze.

The party was held as usual, but Liu Jingting had to leave early because after the news broke, his phone turned on the constant line mode.

Everyone naturally understands the pros and cons, and it is not easy to keep.

"If two people want to have a good relationship, face-to-face communication is a very important part, which is a pity."

After Liu Jingting left, Ye Jue said to Gao Shu with regret: "It seems that in a company, if you want to form a relationship with someone, you need to understand his living habits, such as the subway he takes, whether he likes to smoke, whether he likes to play games, and after finding common ground, you can use this as a medium to create inadvertent face-to-face communication, and over time, other things can come naturally."

"You should belong to the person who is being watched, right?"

"Not necessarily." Ye Jue took a sip of the wine in his hand, glanced at Liu Jingting's left back, and stopped the topic.

...

Liu Jingting, Yang Lilu and Kang Lingyue have been silent since they went out. When they passed by a garden, Kang Lingyue asked: "Where do you have a classmate?"

"He has something to stay there."

Liu Jingting said in a relaxed tone.

"Say whatever you want, I admit it's my fault." Yang Lilu finally spoke.

Liu Jingting smiled and said, "It was the girl who wanted to show off her name. What does it have to do with you?"

"That's it." Kang Lingyue continued.

Yang Lilu still lowered her head slightly.

"Can you ask, where are you going now? If you go to the office, I have to go back and change my clothes. It is really inconvenient for me to walk like this."

"Then you go back and change your clothes first."

"No, when you went out just now, you looked very anxious. Why are you now..."

Liu Jingting smiled and said, "If you come out a little later, you will sing "Iron Blood and Danxin" with Sun Boya. Are you anxious?"

"Ah?! You're not going to deal with Holmes' business?"

"By the way, otherwise I would always call me. Moreover, online news is about a person who can't even storm. You can never guess what the person in front of the screen is thinking. This will probably be someone who is analyzing the cause of Sherlock Holmes' death."

"Are you really going to write him to death?"

Liu Jingting looked at her and suddenly said loudly: "Guess, why would you write a mystery novel?"

...

It was similar to Liu Jingting's expectation. The revelation from Bagua Tower was soon spread on the Internet and caused a large-scale discussion. Everyone had their own opinions and argued endlessly.

The next day, the news reached the UK, but after filtering, netizens there easily determined that this might be a hype made by booksellers and even Liu Jingting himself. Even so, they were still angry because British friends thought, how could you use Sherlock Holmes' life to hype?

Facts have proved that the rumors were indeed false alarms. After the release of "Jianglu" in February, Holmes' style remained the same. At this time, the winter vacation of Wanxiang had already begun. After the magazine was launched, Liu Jingting waved his hand and the editors went home in advance.

Yingri Culture Company should be the earliest company in the country to start annual leave.

When the editors began to enjoy the annual leave, the journey of the new issue of "Jianglu" had just begun. The seven serials have their own characteristics and supporters. Supporters of "Happy Heroes" and "Hello Xing" successively made their own articles, ranking at least in the top three.

Despite this, "Liancheng Jue" tells a tragic story from a bystander perspective, and the pen tip gradually becomes colder, which makes readers shudder. However, in this way, I feel that the ancient mediocre people are sophisticated that they are familiar with people. As for the profound ancient literary cultivation displayed in "Journey to the West", it adds to the unfathomable depth.

Of course, the most popular ones are still the long-established "Lu Xiaofeng" and the "Shelf Detective Collection" that were serialized simultaneously by the Three Kingdoms.

In the same magazine, all serialized articles have their supporters and appear in everyone's discussion topics at high density, which is unimaginable in itself.

"Jianglu" after seven series has the highest average quality in history, and no one has any objection to this.

...

Liu Jingting has had a calm New Year. He spends most of the time in front of the computer. Other times, he either chats with his parents at home, mentions buying a house in the city, or goes out with his parents to wish the elders a happy New Year.

It is worth mentioning that no matter relatives and neighbors, more and more people are starting to borrow money from the Liu family. Some people may not know what Liu Jingting is doing now, but they saw Liu Jingting on TV. According to their inherent cognition, people who appear on TV must be very rich.

Fortunately, Liu Jingting politely declined the invitation to the New Year party, otherwise, the kindergarten classmates would probably come to discuss matters about joint entrepreneurship.

Liu’s father and mother are both people with relatively weak relationships. Whenever someone comes to borrow money, even though they may not be anxious, they are still embarrassed to refuse directly.

Liu Jingting's attitude was very clear. Unless he was really in a hurry to use money, he would not borrow anything else unless he was a real relative. For example, a cousin came over and had to borrow 500,000 yuan, claiming to be doing something. It was ridiculous.

In order to help his parents, Liu Jingting said uniformly: "I bought a house in Jianghai and I am still paying the loan now. How about you? Do you know who has money? Borrow me a little first?"

It seems that many wealthy people are desperately buying industries, not just to show off their wealth. Maybe a large part of the reason is to evade debts and "escape from being borrowed."

...

This year, there is no way to go back to school after the winter vacation like in previous years. To a certain extent, Liu Jingting, Yang Lilu, Xiao Qingyu, Chang Youdao and others are already half of the workplace.

How can people in the workplace have something like winter vacation again??!!!

"Next, the magazine will enter a special period for a long time, and I can't predict the accurate data. In short, everyone is mentally prepared."

Even though we knew what Liu Jingting was going to say, everyone was still nervous. After all, only Yang Lilu had read the original manuscript so far.

"If things exceed expectations, we will stop publishing for one month."

Before everyone could completely escape from the cheerful New Year atmosphere, they were completely brought back to reality by Liu Jingting's reminder.

"The Last Case" finally appeared in this world.

One day at the end of April, an editor from a British magazine suddenly screamed happily while working.

At the same time, Brown, editor-in-chief of the American magazine "Brain Nuclear Gravity", called "My God" ten times.

At this time, they were holding a manuscript with the same content in their hands. The manuscript came from China, author, Liu Jingting, and the article title: "Shelmes. The Last Case".

They were so out of control because they had just learned about Holmes' death.

The two magazines' response strategies were basically the same. First, the editor-in-chief hung up the phone to Liu Jingting to confirm. After receiving a positive answer, he began to worry about all the editors' meeting.

After reading the manuscript, a young female editor from the British magazine cried bitterly on the spot and kept saying, "This is impossible, Sherlock Holmes cannot die, this is a conspiracy..."

The meeting was not possible at all. Everyone was either shocked by the content of the manuscript or began to denounce Liu Jingting, blurting out all kinds of unpleasant words.

"This is revenge, that Chinese boy is revengeing us."

"He has no right to do so, Sherlock Holmes is our friend."

"He prepared this poisonous wine for us from the beginning. He was too cruel, too scary, too despicable."

The discussion meeting inevitably turned into a condemnation meeting. The condemnation meeting finally came to a conclusion - publish the article, win over public opinion, and force him to change the ending!

On April 30, "The Last Case" was released all over the world. Magazines from Britain and the United States all changed the magazine cover to a dark series with a solemn atmosphere. The covers were written with big words "shock", "murder" and "no".

Within just one hour, news of Holmes' death spread throughout the UK. The British network seemed to have been thrown into nuclear weapons. The young people's social network entered a crazy refresh state, and there were large-scale abnormal movements on the Internet.

"The Chinese murdered Sherlock Holmes!"

"Shamely Liu Jingting, return us Sherlock Holmes!"

"Let's unite, the war is about to begin!"

"If Sherlock Holmes is not born, I will go to China to fight for Liu Jingting! I will never stop until death!"

The anger of the British, especially the citizens of London, could not be vented in time, so they had to temporarily transfer it to the magazines that were published. They first canceled the subscription of the magazines and then gathered for demonstrations in front of the magazines.

The magazine was surrounded and can be found in history, but it is unprecedentedly surrounded by so many people!

With this demonstration, demonstrations of various sizes followed. They sat quietly in front of the Chinese Embassy in the UK under the banner of "Returning Me Sherlock Holmes".

The staff of the embassy were stunned. Looking at the history of ancient and modern times, China and foreign countries, it is unheard of forum to hold a demonstration due to the life and death of a fictional character.

The head of the embassy immediately asked Yanjing for instructions. There was news from there that people were already working on Liu Jingting's work, so he would first comfort him.

Chinese readers, who were also very dissatisfied, were suddenly frightened by the British reaction.

Parade? Demonstration?
Chapter completed!
