Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 427 Reasoning Is Still Fascinating
"Viagra, hurry up, if you slow down, it might be gone."

On the road, two teenagers were struggling to ride their bicycles.

The little fat man walking in front looked energetic, and occasionally turned his head to wave to his companions behind.

Yang Wei glanced at the fat man's back, and curled his lips secretly. In the past, when the two went to the bookstore, they dragged each other desperately. Now, this guy is more active than himself. I don't know how his body exploded. With such energy, I have been working hard on the pedals, but I just can't keep up.

Of course, he also wants to read the new book as soon as possible. He is a die-hard fan of the Poirot series, and he has been thinking about this "Tragedy on the Nile" for a long time. During this time, he has been counting the days every day, just waiting for this day .

But he also knew that there would basically be no bookstore out of stock now.

When Zhang Chong first became famous, some bookstores might have misjudged the sales situation, but now that Zhang Zhong is so famous, the bookstores will definitely stock up, no matter how bad it is, they can last a day.

There is a big poster at the door of the bookstore, you can see it before entering the door.

"The masterpiece of the Poirot series!"

"The strange love that takes you into the Nile."

"Created by Master Detective!"

"Must-see at the beginning of the new year!"

Yang Wei looked up at the door frame, and found that not only were the posters of new books everywhere in the bookstore, but there was also a banner hanging on the door, which read: Congratulations to Zhang Chong for being nominated for four Xingyun Awards!

There are cards!
"Let's go, why are you standing still, this banner came out a few days ago." The fat man took Yang Wei's hand and walked into the bookstore.

As soon as I entered the door, there was a scene of rubbing shoulders. After all, it was the twelfth day of the first lunar month, and there were already many people in the bookstore, and because of Zhang Chong's new book today, the flow of people in the bookstore went up to a higher level.

After entering the door, the two of them couldn't see the new book shelves, because they had already been surrounded by people, and there was no gap at all.

"Viagra, follow me, I'll squeeze you in."

Xiaopang was gearing up, looking as if he was going to fight a big fight. It seemed that in his eyes, this was not a bookstore, but a battlefield for him to flex his fists.

But Yang Wei stopped him, "Don't worry."

Then he pouted at a sign next to him, "There are more over there."

The little fat man turned his head to look, and the sign said: Buy a new book and go inside.

"I'll go, what else is there?"

Needless to say, Yang Wei, Xiaopang took the lead and walked in the direction pointed by the sign.

The two came to a big bookshelf. Although there were many people around, it was far less exaggerated than outside. At least there were gaps for them to sneak through.

The classification board on this bookshelf said "Zhang Zhong's special area", and all the books on the shelf were Zhang Zhong's books.

Yang Wei took a glance, "Dune", "I, Robot", "The Wandering Sea Ball", "Murder on the Orient Express"... Zhang Zhong's books are all there, and not only the booklets, but also Zhang Chong's articles There are also magazines.

For example, the previous "Agitation Literature" and the later "Zero and One", and "Poetry Forest" in the gap, in fact, except for some diehard fans, no one will buy "Agitation Literature" because of Zhang Zhong Or "The Forest of Poems". After all, Zhang Zhong's works in "Agitation Literature" and "The Forest of Poems" have actually been published in separate volumes or collections.

And like Yang Wei, because he has bought it before, he will not buy it again.

On the contrary, the sales of "Zero and One" are quite good, because "Harry Potter" can only be seen on "Zero and One" now.

There is also Yu Dongyu's Qianmen series, a large part of which can only be seen in magazines.

Looking at the big bookshelf in front of him, Yang Wei couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional. More than a year ago, who would have thought that Zhang Zhong would be so popular. Put his books, which needs to be supported by quantity.

Just as he was feeling, the fat man had already slipped through the cracks and got two copies of "Tragedy on the Nile".

"Viagra, here's a copy for you."

Yang Wei took the book and looked at the cover. There were two women and a man on it, which seemed to imply that the book was about love.

"Go, pay the bill first."

Books are packaged. If you want to read them, you have to grab the trial copy or pay the bill first. They can only choose the latter now. Besides, no matter what, Yang Wei will buy books, no matter whether the book is wonderful or not. , This is the difference between fans and ordinary readers.

After taking the book to the counter and paying the bill, the two unpacked the book with peace of mind and found a random place in the bookstore to sit down.

Can't wait to open the book.

The story begins with a beautiful woman who has it all.

God seems to be unfair. When he created Lynette, he gave her all the things that other people dream of. Even people who don't know her will express jealousy when they see her.

She was to marry the Earl of Winterham.

When Yang Wei saw this, he faintly felt that something was wrong. Zhang Zhong had created such a perfect character, which always made him feel that this too lucky woman would have a tragic ending in the end.

In fact, he guessed right.

As the story continued, Linnett even announced her marriage to her best friend's boyfriend, and then went on honeymoon together.

And then, she died.

Yang Wei's first reaction was that the murderers were Simon and Jackie, because he always felt that these two people would be the murderers, and he couldn't say why, it was just a kind of intuition.

But when Linnett died, Simon was too seriously injured to commit the crime, and Jackie had ample alibi.

In the following plot, Poirot began to solve the case, but finally found that everyone present had a motive for killing.

"I'll go, it won't be the same as the Murder on the Orient Express, everyone is a murderer." As soon as this thought came into Yang Wei's mind, he shook his head and shook his head away.

It's not that he saw anything, but he felt that Zhang Zhong would definitely not be able to use the same method of killing again. If that was the case, it would be too boring and irresponsible to the readers.

The investigation process has the consistent style of the Poirot series, often one clue after another appears, but one clue after another is eliminated.

The case has not progressed, but another person died, Linnett's maid Louis, whose body was found on the floor of the cabin, the murder weapon may be a scalpel, and some people suspected that it was Doctor Besner.

However, this suspicion was not confirmed. Later, Mrs. Otterborn said that she saw the murderer, but she was shot dead before the name was revealed.

Until the end, when Yang Wei saw Tim admitting to stealing the necklace, he thought the murderer had been identified, but seeing so many words behind him, he knew that the matter was not simple.

Sure enough, when the truth finally came out, Yang Wei was speechless, because his intuition was right at the beginning, and the murderers were Simon and Jackie.

Simon was not injured at the beginning, but deceived everyone with the red potion, went back to the room and killed Linnett when others were looking for a doctor, and then severely injured his leg, pretending that he could not commit the murder look.

As for the other two, it was Jackie who killed them.

At the end of the story, Jackie took out a pistol from the stocking and shot Simon to death, and then committed suicide, which made people embarrassing.

"Love is really a scary thing."

Mrs. Allerton's words have also become the key to summarizing the main line of this book.

Yang Wei closed the book and smiled. The reasoning is still charming, but what is different from the past is that this time Zhang Zhong added the element of love.
