Chapter 104 "To Sherlock Holmes"
At the same time, "The Sign of Four" was launched simultaneously in the country and overseas.
Of course, it is serialized in China and published in full overseas.
This means that people overseas can see the ending first.
This made domestic fans very unhappy!!
Why!
Why do we have to wait for the serialization? !
Is it because they have a lot of money?!
Buying books is definitely much more expensive than reading them online, not to mention that they are in US dollars!
Then I can give you a reward!
I am the Silver Alliance!
Some fans even bought e-books on the Internet!
Just to see the ending in advance!
"The detective novel is serialized..."
"The wicked belt is smoking!"
"This is deliberately trying to keep me awake!"
"I'm not saying this, but that's a bit too much!"
"If it weren't for the Hulk, I would have reported the whole thing!"
"No, what will you watch next if you report me?"
"I want paper books for my collection, and I'm looking for a purchasing agent!"
"Damn! I have to buy Chinese novels from overseas..."
"Can I also make a little money from this?"
Rewards, requests for updates, and insults came pouring in like a flood!
Wufeng was afraid that the situation would escalate and have a negative impact if it escalated to other levels.
I came to Lin Mo helplessly.
"We really didn't expect this. Should we just send out the full version?"
Logically speaking, the longer a novel is serialized, the more beneficial it is to data and revenue.
After all, there should be space for readers to urge for updates and give rewards.
But the Hulk's novel is an exception, as he is a great writer who has transcended the platform rules.
As long as it is there, no matter how much is released or when it is released, the data will explode.
"Okay, send them all out. From now on, I'll publish one short story a month."
After reaching an agreement, Lin Mo sent out the full version and Wu Feng issued a notice.
【
At the request of fans, the complete version of "The Sign of Four" is here!
Starting from next month, the short story series will be released in full at the beginning of each month!
Thank you for your support!

The protagonist of "The Sign of Four" is still our charming detective Sherlock Holmes.
In this novel, British governess Mary Morstan receives an anonymous package every year after her father disappears.
The secret of this package leads the readers and Holmes to uncover the truth. A string of beads in the package is the only clue left to Mary by her father before he disappeared.
Holmes and his assistant Watson began to investigate and discovered that the beads were related to the treasure of a local king in northern India.
As the investigation deepened, they gradually learned that during the Indian rebellion, the local king divided the treasure into two parts in order to preserve his property. One part was gold, silver and coins, and the other was jewelry and diamonds.
He planned to hide the treasures in his palace and the Agra Fort.
However, his plan was discovered by four greedy men - the Englishman Small and three Indian soldiers.
Small was a soldier of the British Army stationed in India. During the war, he and three Indian soldiers killed the local king's servant and stole the treasures he brought.
All four of them were sentenced to prison for murder.
In order to gain his freedom, Small bribed the prison officer, Major Sholto, and promised to give him one-fifth of the treasure in exchange for helping him escape.
But Sholto broke his promise and returned to England alone with all the treasures.
Small, filled with resentment, managed to escape back to London and began looking for opportunities to take revenge on Sholto.
But Sholto had died of illness, so Small managed to murder Sholto's son and recover the treasure.
To uphold his oath, Small left a note at the murder scene signed by him and three Indians, the so-called "Sign of Four."
In the end, Holmes revealed the truth of the whole incident through clever reasoning and investigation, brought the criminals to justice, and helped Mary Morstan recover her father's inheritance.
The whole story is full of suspense and thrills, showing Holmes's intelligence and excellent reasoning ability.
At the same time, it also reflects Britain's colonial activities in India and its oppression of the Indian people at that time, and has certain historical significance and social value.
The plot is compact and fascinating, and the characters are vivid.
Holmes' wisdom and talent are fully demonstrated, and Watson's loyalty and kindness are also impressive.
At the same time, the novel also touches on multiple themes such as family, wealth, and power, making the story more colorful.
The short story is worth chewing over and savoring.
The social reality revealed through the murder case resonates deeply with Western readers.
"A Study in Scarlet" has accumulated a large number of readers and fans.
The achievements of the first book are already very impressive.
Second, agents and platforms also pay more attention to it.
A lot of effort has been put into publicity and channels.
With the right time and place.
The publication of "The Sign of Four" - "The Sing For Four" made the mysterious oriental writer Hulk famous.
The Sherlock Holmes he created is a tall and thin man wearing a cloak, smoking a pipe, with sharp eyes and agile movements. He often appears at the London docks and castles in the English countryside.
Ever since Sherlock Holmes was created as a detective by Conan Doyle, "he" has been regarded by Western readers as a real person in life.
The successful creation of this artistic image is unprecedented.
The fastest response came on North American social networking sites.
There are many more Sherlock Holmes fans on ins.
Everyone started to create topics and fan circles to analyze and discuss the plot of the novel.
On the hot book list, the popularity of "The Sign of Four" is rising rapidly.
In just one week, it has reached fourth place, followed by a bright red Hot and New!
It represents the popularity and freshness of the book.
At this time, "A Study in Scarlet" is still ranked sixth this month, and this is the second month since the book was released.
Because the original author is not in North America.
So the agent received a snowflake of emails and letters.
The recipient is "TOSherlockHolmes"!
The agent was stunned when he saw the vast number of letters.
"so much?"
"To Sherlock Holmes!"
"That's a character in a novel."
"He's gone astray!"
“I can only say that The Sign of Four is amazing!”
"It's already number two on the hot list!"
"I should say Hulk is awesome!"
"Love letters, novel interpretation, case analysis?"
"What is this pile of material?"
"Hmm, let me translate it for you. It means 'Frost falls in June. I beg Master Xia to redress my grievances.'"
(This is automatically translated into English!)
"Ask Sherlock Holmes to help solve the wrongful case?"
"......Um."
"Let's notify Daxia first."
......
Mango TV, after "A Study in the Scarlet Letter" became popular again from overseas.
Xiao Xiao continued to pay attention to the data of "The Sign of Four".
No matter how it is sold, Mango can get 10% of the profit.
It's almost like getting something for nothing.

“Hahahahahaha!”
Just as I was cheering, I received a long-distance call from overseas.
