Chapter 238

The library of Yufeng Fiction College, Book King's Chamber of Secrets.

Yuxin, Hua Yingxue, and Liu Xing are working together to find the whereabouts of the treasure of the Jin family. According to the letter left by Jin Santong, the treasure is in the Shuwang secret room.

In addition to the book king podium, there are hundreds of bookshelves in the secret room, so the three of them searched back and forth among the bookshelves.
after an hour.

"Strange, there is no treasure here at all!" After searching every corner of the secret room, Yuxin found nothing, and turned her head to ask, "Yingxue, did you find anything?"

Hua Yingxue shook her head.

Tossing here, Yuxin and Hua Yingxue can only pin their hopes on the shadow man. They wandered around and found that the shadow man was standing in front of a bookshelf, holding a copy of "Yufeng Fiction Academy Books" in his hands. I am reading the books of the Library Yearbook.

They stepped forward immediately.

"Shadow Man, there seems to be no treasure here." Hua Yingxue said.

"Since Jin San said in the communication that the treasure is buried in the Book King's Secret Room, there should be nothing wrong." Liu Xing put down the book in his hand and reminded, "However, there is a problem that makes me feel strange. This secret room is the Book King's secret room." Qashqai’s office location, why did Jin Santong choose to bury the treasure here?”

Hua Yingxue and Yuxin looked at each other, and Yuxin said, "I can't figure this out either. There must be some special reason for my grandfather to bury the treasure in the library, right?"

Liu Xingdao: "I suspect that the library may have something special." Pointing to the bookshelf in front of him, he said, "Here is a set of "Library Yearbook of Yufeng Fiction Academy", which records the development process of the library in detail. Check out the set of books and see if you find anything."

"Can I read these books too?" Hua Yingxue asked weakly, the books in the Book King's secret room are all forbidden books, and ordinary scholars are not qualified to read them at all.

"Look at it secretly, just don't tell it." Liu Xing reminded.

Hua Yingxue and Yuxin smiled lightly and nodded repeatedly: "En."

So, the three of them gathered in front of the bookshelf and read the "Yufeng Fiction Academy Library Yearbook" together. This set of books has more than 100 volumes in total, recording all the events of the library from its establishment to the present.

"Shadow man, 39 years ago, there was a collapse in the library, and several basements collapsed." At this time, Hua Yingxue pointed to the third volume of the yearbook, and said, "The cause of the collapse is still unknown, but it is only suspected It is caused by the instability of the building structure of the secret room, could it be related to the treasure?"

Liu Xing looked at the records in the yearbook and said: "The description of this incident is a bit vague, let's look it up again."

"Ah."

Twenty minutes later, Hua Yingxue made a new discovery: "Shadow Man, according to the fifth volume of the yearbook, there was a crack in the wall of the basement of the library 34 years ago, which caused groundwater to seep in, soaking many books. Wet."

"There are cracks in the walls?" Liu Xing frowned slightly, the basement of the library is really full of disasters, "Why are there cracks in the walls?"

Hua Yingxue said: "There is no relevant explanation in the yearbook, I only know that the crack was patched later."
Before Liu Xing had time to think about it, Yuxin said again: "The shadow man, it is recorded in the seventh volume of the yearbook that a strange earthquake occurred in the library in the middle of the night 31 years ago, and the entire earthquake lasted for a long time. It lasted about ten seconds. But what is puzzling is that there was no earthquake in Tianhai City that day, only the library shook. The expert team could not find out the reason, and the matter was finally settled."

"earthquake?"

Hearing this word, Liu Xing couldn't help thinking of another place in his mind - Cradle Island.

There have been many strange earthquakes on Cradle Island. The reason is that there is a book coffin under the Cradle Island, and the volume of this book coffin will change.When the volume of the book coffin increases, it will cause pressure on the underground environment, causing the ground to vibrate.

There was also a strange earthquake in the library of Yufeng Fiction Academy. Could it be that there are book coffins under the library?
Thinking of this, Liu Xing immediately found three book coffin detectors, ready to let Hua Yingxue and Yuxin detect the book coffin together.

The three acted separately, each responsible for detecting an area.

After more than half an hour, there was finally a surprise discovery.

When Yuxin put the book coffin detector on the ground to check the ground, the detector suddenly issued a "beep beep" alarm and vibrated slightly.

"Shadowman, there is a situation!"

Hearing the siren, Liu Xing and Hua Yingxue immediately surrounded them, only to see a number—88 displayed on the tiny LCD screen on the surface of the detector!

"Is there a book coffin at 88 meters underground?"

Liu Xing used the detector to test repeatedly several times, but the result was still the same.

"Strange, shouldn't there be treasures buried in the Book King's secret room, but why is there a book coffin?" Yuxin showed surprise on her face.

"Could the Jin family's treasure be related to the book coffin?" Hua Yingxue guessed, then asked, "Shadow Man, what should we do now?"

"Since there is a book coffin in the ground, of course we have to find a way to dig it out." Liu Xing said, "The book coffin is buried at a depth of 88 meters, and the excavation is not easy. You need to make some preparations first. Let's go back first, and I will notify you when there is a situation." .”

The two beauties nodded.

Liu Xing thought of something, and said again: "By the way, Yingxue, I have a task for you. The successful solution of this disappearance case is mainly due to your creation of "The Disappearance Case of the Goddess of the Shadow Man". This novel let us know in advance that the kidnapper was at the Flourishing Bar. Now there is a new case, and I want you to write a new novel."

Hua Yingxue was curious: "What case?"

"The case of Fengmanlou." Liu Xing said, "Although we have arrested Feng'a Liu, the old fox Fengmanlou still escaped. Fengmanlou will have new actions, and we must catch him as soon as possible. Therefore, I want you to write a novel about Fengmanlou."

"Why did you ask me to write?" Hua Yingxue was a little puzzled.

Liu Xingdao: "In the reading alliance, there are not many people I can completely trust."

Hua Yingxue's heart moved slightly, and she pursed her mouth: "But, I don't know much about Fengmanlou."

Liu Xing said: "I can provide you with detailed information about Fengmanlou."

Hua Yingxue thought for a while, then nodded lightly: "Okay, I'll give it a try."

After the discussion, Hua Yingxue and Yuxin left the book king's secret room first, and Liu Xing went to Bohai Book City...

……

Lianhua Novel Academy, in the office of the Book Police Force.

Five elderly people in their eighties were sitting together, concentrating on reading an unfinished novel manuscript, which was "The Disappearing Case of the Goddess of the Shadow Man" written by Hua Yingxue.

The five old men are masters of pre-reading techniques, and they are using pre-reading techniques to predict the follow-up plot of "The Disappearance of the Goddess of the Shadow Man", thereby guessing the whereabouts of the kidnappers.

To be proficient in pre-reading, a large amount of reading is required to form an intuition for reading.The number of novels that ordinary readers read in their lifetime will generally not exceed 10, but the reading volume of the five elderly people in front of them all exceeds 20, and the highest reading volume has reached 50.

Generally speaking, the higher the amount of reading, the higher the level of pre-reading.

The five elderly people read far more than ordinary people, and their pre-reading skills can be regarded as the top level in Lianhua District.

Even so, it is still not an easy task to use the pre-reading technique to solve the case.

Using the pre-reading technique to predict the plot of a novel is tantamount to conceiving the future plot of the novel by yourself, which requires "inspiration".

"Inspiration" does not come at any time, it is a kind of progressive intuition formed after a lot of thinking, which has a certain degree of chance.

In order to find inspiration, five elderly people have repeatedly read "The Disappearance of the Goddess of the Shadow Man" for two days and two nights.

"Found it, I finally found it!"

At this time, one of the old men wearing reading glasses suddenly shouted in surprise, "I have found inspiration! The kidnapper should appear in Qingxi City!"

Hearing this, the other four old people stopped immediately, and one of them asked, "Lao Li, did you guess it?"

"That's right!" the old man wearing reading glasses said excitedly, "I just had a flash of inspiration in my mind, and an inspiration emerged. According to the information of this inspiration, the kidnappers in this case of disappearance should be in Qingxi City. The location should be about the music."

"It's about music? Is it a concert hall or a dance hall?"

"Maybe it's a bar." The old man wearing reading glasses was so excited that he immediately stood up and said, "I'll immediately notify the captain of the Lianhuashu police force to arrest the kidnappers in Qingxi City..."

"No need." Just as he was talking, a policewoman in a pink police uniform walked into the office. The policewoman was in her 50s, and the uniform had a tulip pattern on it. She was Lianhua Shujing. The captain of the team is named Hua Shizuka.

Captain Hua said: "Five masters, you have worked hard these few days. However, you don't need to spend any more time predicting the plot of "The Disappearance of the Goddess of the Shadow Man", because the kidnappers have already been caught."

"What? Arrested?" The old man wearing reading glasses looked surprised, "Where did the kidnappers be arrested?"

"The Fenghua Zhengmao Bar in Qingxi City." Captain Hua explained, "Last night, more than 30 kidnappers were all arrested by the Yufengshu police team, and all 105 missing women have gone home."

"This...how is it possible?" The old man wearing reading glasses was full of doubts, "How did the Yufengshu police team know that the kidnapper was in a bar in Qingxi City?"

"It was predicted by the book king, the shadow man." Captain Hua introduced, "Two days ago, the shadow man was already waiting in the bar in Qingxi City. He seemed to have known that the kidnapper would appear in the bar."

Hearing this, the five pre-reading art masters looked at each other with emotion in their hearts.

"So, the Book King Sombra is also proficient in pre-reading?"

"The pre-reading technique of the shadow man is probably far superior to the five of us. It took the five of us two days and two nights to figure out the whereabouts of the kidnappers. The shadow man is a big step faster than us."

"It's strange to say that the shadow man will not be over forty years old, and his reading volume cannot exceed five of us. Why is his pre-reading skill level so high?"

"Maybe this is talent!"

……

At the same time, Bohai Book City.

In the underground secret room, Lin Shishi was sitting in front of a supercomputer, concentrating on writing a set of books - "Stories Collection of Chinese Celebrities".

This set of books is the painstaking effort of Lin Shishi's life, and it records the unknown stories of many celebrities in Huaxia Kingdom.Due to the huge amount of information and data, only a small part of Lin's story has been completed so far.

I was busy when a black figure walked in.

Lin Shishi looked up and said with a smile, "Brother Heiying, you are here. How is the kidnapping going?"

"It's almost as you predicted." Liu Xing stepped forward, "The kidnappers are indeed in the Fenghua Zhengmao Bar, and all 105 missing women have been found. Guo Zhengmao and Feng Aliu are indeed working together. Your original guess has basically come true."

Lin Shishi said: "This is mainly due to Hua Yingxue's contribution. This girl has the essence of human flow, and she describes the characters in detail, which is convenient for predicting the fate of characters with pre-reading techniques. If someone else wrote "Black Shadow" "The Case of the Disappearance of the Goddess of Man", my pre-reading skills can't be used."

Liu Xingdao: "Unfortunately, I still failed to catch Feng Manlou this time. I originally wanted to use Feng A Liu as a clue, follow the vines, and arrest Feng Man Lou. In the end, Feng Man Lou had already run away before I arrested Feng A Liu. gone."

Lin Shishi smiled and said, "It's not surprising. There are eight old bookworms around Fengmanlou, and each old bookworm has read more than one million novels. They are also proficient in pre-reading, so they can naturally help Feng Manlou predicts potential dangers. To defeat Feng Manlou, you need to defeat the pre-reading skills of the eight old bookworms around him. Whoever has the higher pre-reading skills will have the upper hand."

Liu Xing was curious: "Compared with the eight old bookworms, who has a higher level of pre-reading skills?"
"If it's one-on-one, my pre-reading skills will definitely be slightly better." Lin Shishi confessed, "However, if eight old bookworms join forces, then I have no chance of winning. Therefore, at present, I want to arrest Fengmanlou Fengmanlou has eight old bookworms to help him predict every move, and they have calculated the risks of each step in advance, so they will not make too fatal mistakes."
Liu Xingdao: "The Reading League also has some pre-reading masters. If they join forces, can they beat the eight old bookworms?"

Lin Shishi said with a smile: "The pre-reading masters of the Reading League are not worth mentioning at all. Their reading volume is too small, only a few hundred thousand."

Most of the books read by the pre-reading masters of the Reading Alliance are regular books issued in the market, and the number of these books is limited.

As for Lin Shishi, Feng Manlou and the eight old bookworms, they not only read regular books, but also read a lot of banned books.Among the novels they read, more than half are forbidden books.

It is precisely because of this that the reading volume of Lin Shishi, Feng Manlou, and the eight old bookworms is more than half that of the reading masters of the Reading League.

"The group of pre-reading masters in the Reading Alliance rarely read forbidden books, and their pre-reading skills can only be regarded as half a bucket of water." Lin Shishi said bluntly, "If you want to defeat the eight old bookworms, you need to find at least one more bookworm. Only those who read as much as me have a chance. Unfortunately, such people are rare in China, and it is hard to find them with a lantern!"

Liu Xing thought to himself, where can he find a master of pre-reading?
The two were chatting, when there was a sound of footsteps, Liu Xing turned his head and found Fu Changding walking towards him.

Fu Changding, like Lin Shishi, is temporarily living in the underground secret room of Bohai Bookstore.

"Brother Sombra, you came just in time. My novel has been finished and I'm about to submit it to the essay contest." Fu Changding was already preparing to participate in the [-]nd Sombra Cup essay contest.After a few days of hard work, he has already created a novel about shadowmen, titled "Master of Pre-reading Skills for Shadowmen".

"The Master of Pre-reading of the Shadowman" tells the story of the shadowman becoming a master of pre-reading.

After reading the manuscript, Liu Xing was surprised: "Xiao Fu, why did you suddenly think of writing about the master of pre-reading?"

Fu Changding explained: "These days I live with senior Lin Shishi, and I am curious about his pre-reading skills. My previous novels were all about villains. This time I decided to change the subject and describe the master of pre-reading skills. So, I Based on Senior Lin Shishi as the prototype, this novel of the Shadowman was created."

After listening to his words, Liu Xing became interested in this novel immediately.

If he could be fascinated by "The Master of Pre-reading Technique of the Shadow Man" and transplant the memory of the master of pre-reading technique, wouldn't Liu Xing be able to directly learn the technique of pre-reading?
Thinking of this, Liu Xing immediately scanned the novel with his book eye.
