The Goddess Shines on America

"Ying's long youth suddenly shattered like colored glaze.

When the beautiful, pure, and real things are destroyed, and the recurring memories and dreams are shattered, hatred begins to sprout and spread arbitrarily...

In this Tsinghua girl, some people like me and some hate me.

On Saturday morning, on the platform of the station, someone bumped from the side, and I almost fell off the rails;

After school on Monday, I went to the shower room to wash after swimming and almost died of electrocution.

After school on Tuesday, a pot of sky blue sunflower fell from the third floor of the teaching building until it hit the top of my head;

After school on Thursday, a teacher was poisoned to death in my usual locker room. Did he die for me?

It was horrified to understand that I seemed to have nowhere to escape. "

The above is the brief introduction of the story written by the author himself. After seeing the book titled "After School" and reading such a synopsis, the editors in the conference room fell silent.

"Alice King, not far away, writers submitted from Los Angeles, USA, typical Chinese-American names, this combination... As far as I know, only one person is consistent."

Qing Zhi, who has been in the industry for five years, wore a pair of dark circles under his eyes and looked tired. Under the gaze of everyone who wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, Qing Zhi said to everyone with a serious face: "That's the Alice King. "

Tsukamoto became unhappy, he patted the table: "Which ≯long≯wind≯wen≯study, w≈ww.cfw∽xn≈et position? Qingzhi, you can’t understand what you said. "

Qingzhi thought for a while and said: "The new American best-selling author, the author of "Jurassic Park" and "Blood Fairy Tales", this is the most close to our industry."

"Ah, that one!"

With Qingzhi's words, Chunzi also suddenly realized it, but immediately afterwards, she was confused again: "But...Is this the identity? I don't care much about the American book market, you are sure this Ai Li Silk King is already very good in the American literary world?"

Qingzhi looked at Chunzi with an innocent look: "Is there a second one?"

Chunzi is now forty years old. When she frowned because of doubts, there were more lines on her forehead than Qingzhi: "But the Alice King I remember is the director of "Ghost Record"!"

"Ah, yes!"

At this time, Hongzhi also thought of something and clapped his hands: "Boss of Cisco! Microsoft shareholders, have you seen the press conference after Microsoft went public? She will be there!"

Chunzi looked confused: "What Cisco... Microsoft? I don't care about what those big companies' press conferences do?"

Several conversations with colleagues completely confused Tsukamoto. He looked at everyone with a dumbfounded expression: "I said you, this name seems to have not spread to John Smith or...or Tom, Harry, and Jack. Right? It's a writer and a director. Now that even the boss of the company has come out, there should be a limit to the same name, right?"

Yamamoto, who hadn't spoken, spoke silently.

"So, they are all alone."

As he said, a magazine was photographed on the table by him.

Undoubtedly, it is the American edition of Time Magazine.

Although it is not the Man of the Year, the cover of this magazine a few months ago does indeed have an Asian girl in a white suit printed on it.

"Nani!?"

"Hey, hey, don't be so surprised, okay, you all sit down, and your heads are retracted."

Yamamoto, whose information in the core editor was only lower than that of the editor-in-chief Tsukamoto, waved his hand comfortably, which made everyone at the table, including Tsukamoto, sit back.

Tsukamoto stared straight at the cover of this issue: "So, the situation is...is an American genius entering our Japanese market?"

Chunzi was also really confused. She picked up this "Time" and turned it over. When she opened the relevant page, she stopped immediately.

Qingzhi looked at her blankly: "How about, Chunzisang?"

Junzi's eyes stared like bullseye, and his mouth was like a hippopotamus: "The debut and second book have been on the "New York Times" bestseller list for a long time, and they have long been at the top of the list. At the same time, they are also the most profitable in history. The film, the writer, director and producer of DreamWorks' "Ghost Record", Cisco and Microsoft... Is this girl a monster!?"

"I think it should be like this, Tsukamoto-san."

Yamamoto stood up and put the magazine away from Junko. Seeing that the editor-in-chief was still in a daze, he shook the manuscript and said, "Look, how about we read the story first? It's rare for the other party to have two top-notch books in a row. A best-selling author who actually published a book to our Japanese reasoning literary circle will surely not disappoint everyone, right?"

That's for sure, and there are not many people who can be editors who say they don't like reading books. After knowing Alice's achievements, who can say that they are not interested in her first mystery novel?

You know, these two novels became the bestsellers in the United States, and they were also the debut novel and the second one following it. They have been on the bestseller list in a row, and they all stayed on it for a few weeks in one breath!

The most important thing is that these two novels are in different fields!

"Time" is not something Yamamoto said can be put away, especially the editor-in-chief Tsukamoto is interested in this girl.

"Science fiction thriller novels, and magic vampire love thriller novels...hehe, what a long category name? Everyone, what do they have in common?"

"Thriller and suspense."

Qingzhi opened his mouth and came: "Especially this "Blood Fairy Tales", which describes the process of Harken's crime in a very serious and detailed manner, as well as the police solving the case. This is obviously for creative reasoning. Prepare for the novel. Everyone said, does this Alice want to contribute to us a long time ago?"

"My main concern now is...what exactly Alice San has plans."

Tsukamoto thought a little more: "For overseas writers to publish books in Japan, it is indeed a natural advantage from the perspective of publicity. In particular, we can also publicize her achievements in the United States. The focus is...everything The books are all new categories, and each book is very popular, so even if it is the first time to create a mystery novel, it will certainly not disappoint everyone!"

This "everyone" naturally refers to the readers, and the editors deeply agree.

"But she's still a big boss after all... What are her plans?"

However, Tsukamoto only said half the story. He flipped through the introduction of Alice’s career in "Times", as if he was telling everyone, but also as if he was telling himself: "There are indeed many European and American capitalists investing in Japan. Is the little girl going to intervene too?"

"Editor in chief..."

Hongji lay on the table, tapping his fingers on the tabletop: "Work, work, let's read novels together, whether investing or doing business, does this have nothing to do with us?"

"Well, it makes sense, so sir, let us see what kind of work Alice has brought to the Japanese people!"

So, after a passionate mobilization speech, more than a dozen editors in the entire conference room, with a copy, began to carefully read the reasoning debut of this amazing girl.

"After school"……

This is Alice's famous debut work copied from the famous contemporary Japanese mystery novelist, Keigo Higashino. A certain work that deserves to have won the Edogawa Ranbu Prize in 1985.

A year and a half later, Alice had already quietly investigated the Japanese literary circle of reasoning. There is no doubt that the originator of Conan-kun Edogawa exists, and some older writers have also been in the industry all day long, but this is Keigo Higashino, let alone this "After School", but even 84 The "Magic Ball" that was shortlisted for the Ranbu Award in 2009 does not exist.

She couldn't help but not tempted. If she chooses to copy a few well-known novels to brush herself up as a literary girl, with the presence of Conan's Da Ming, she will never let go of Japanese mystery novels. So now that I want to copy mystery novels, and now that the opportunity is in front of my eyes, it is impossible for Higashino Keigo to let go...

After all, as a writer who should have started writing books in 1985, each of his books is not only in line with the times, but also in line with Alice’s life...

For the Kodansha editors present, the copy of "Keigo Higashino's award-winning debut" imported from the United States immediately gave them a novel experience.

First of all, just like many Japanese novels, especially mystery novels, this novel is based on the perspective of the first person.

Moreover, as soon as the book opened, all readers were given a strong medicine: “After school on Tuesday, a pot of sky blue sunflower fell from the third floor of the teaching building ~ www.readwn.com~ until it hit me on top of the head”, It was staged in the first two natural sections of the book.

"What a simple method!"

Tsukamoto nodded in satisfaction, and sighed secretly at the cleverness of Alice's technique.

You know, any reader must read the introduction before reading the book, and the introduction provided by Alice is particularly charming. After reading such an introduction, the vast majority of readers have the first thought in their minds to know when the accidents listed here will happen.

Then, it happened immediately!

Just in the first two natural paragraphs of the book!

Clean and neat!

The following short plot was also very compact. "I" who was almost hit by the flowerpot hurried up to the third floor to find out, but after a series of explorations of two classrooms with only people, "I" found nothing.

Tsukamoto raised his head and interjected: "Two classrooms, six students, do you think the murderer will be among them?" (To be continued.)
