Chapter 207 Blake and Old Wang



At this moment, Gu Xinghe looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar image of Theresa in the newspaper and a knowing smile appeared on his face.

For him, discovering information about someone he knew in a game instance was a pleasant surprise.

After glancing over the news that felt somewhat familiar to him...

Gu Xinghe found an article in this ten-year-old newspaper that he found even more interesting.

It was an article that appeared in a corner of the newspaper, and it didn't seem to be very long.

It is not an introduction to a particular landscape or building, nor is it a record of a real event.

If I had to say something, it would be about the content of this article tucked away in the corner.

It's somewhat like a corner of entertainment gossip news that appears in modern newspapers or magazines.

Or it could be a pure love novel with a certain realistic background, but also incorporating a lot of fictional content.

Because, at this point, the article begins with—

Episode 1: A Forbidden Love Between Siblings

A remote town seems to be a perfect match for the phrase "forbidden love".

This day was spent with a girl named Serena and her brother Camos.

They returned to the small town where they were born after many years.

The frail and sickly girl and her brother came to escape societal opposition and the unpleasant gazes of others.

In this secluded town where no one knows their past, they may be able to start anew.

Wheat Field Town is a town whose economy relies on grain cultivation.

The people of the small town welcomed the brother and sister who had been away from their hometown for many years.

Until that day, the secret between Serena and the siblings Camos was exposed...

The beginning of the article and the sibling relationship setting gave Gu Xinghe a sense of familiarity once again.

Moreover, the wheat field town mentioned in this article also caught Gu Xinghe's attention.

Because they happen to share the same name and both rely on food cultivation as their economic source.

Gu Xinghe believes that the newspaper appearing in the library is not a coincidence.

Perhaps ten years ago, a brother and sister did indeed return to this wheat-field town.

Eager to see what happens next, Gu Xinghe called Chu Liang and Cheng Li to help him search.

As mentioned before, ten years ago was the time when newspapers most frequently reported the phrase "the beginning is the peak".

Therefore, in the beginning, the time span of each newspaper that appeared here was not as large as it was later.

At this time, Gu Xinghe, Chu Liang, and Cheng Li no longer paid much attention to the news in other newspapers.

After only a quick glance at the title to confirm that it had nothing to do with Wheat Field Town,

They then focused more on finding follow-up content to that article.

In fact, aside from that pure love story set in Wheatfield Town.

Serious news reports would almost never dedicate space to introducing such a secluded town, virtually unknown to outsiders.

Soon, the three of them rearranged the newspapers that had been randomly piled together according to their chronological order.

They then found the follow-up to this article, which seemed like gossip news at the same time, and also like something compiled within a certain real-world context.

Following the first episode mentioned in the previous article, the content of the second episode appeared in the newspaper a week later.

And in this short week.

Gu Xinghe could easily guess that the article's sensational opening had indeed attracted the attention of many readers.

Its status in various articles has visibly risen considerably.

A week later, the article was no longer relegated to a corner of the newspaper, but instead appeared in the most eye-catching spot on the page.

Compared to before, it is also much longer.

Perhaps this type of article is indeed the first time in the world to be published in a newspaper.

After the initial trial and realizing that it was indeed popular with many people, its status was elevated.

So, what appeared before Gu Xinghe in the newspaper a week later was the content of [Episode 2]—

At the end of the first episode, it seems that the secret of the relationship between Serena and the siblings Camosna was exposed.

Fortunately, not many people knew this secret; in fact, it was only exposed to a group of young girls.

However, the person this group of girls likes happens to be the male protagonist of this article—Kamos.

Such a sibling relationship is obviously taboo, secretive, and somewhat dangerous, no matter when or where it occurs.

So, the girls, now aware of their beloved's secret, planned to use it to blackmail Camos into having them—

Episode 2: The Innocent First Love of the Pure Neighbor

Episode 3: The Literary Girl in the Library

Episode 4: The Sunny Girl in the Wheat Field

Episode 5: The Neighbor's Kind Care

Episode 6: The Silent Temptation of Blake's Wife

In fact, the remaining content does not need to be described in excessive detail.

For Gu Xinghe, Chu Liang, and Cheng Li, all of whom have experienced the modern information explosion, this is a significant development.

Just by looking at the headlines of the articles that were subsequently published in the newspaper, one could guess the general content.

Even up to the last chapter of the article they could find [Chapter Six].

The female protagonist is far removed from the initial description of a girl who intends to threaten the male protagonist.

If we're talking about the other person mentioned in the title of episode six—Blake…

Gu Xinghe can only say that this is a fairly common name in this world, and there are many people with this name.

But if one had to make a comparison, Gu Xinghe felt that it roughly corresponded to "Old Wang," a term often used in the modern world.

Among the six articles found by the three, Gu Xinghe also discovered that the time intervals between their publications were becoming increasingly longer.

After this sixth episode, no further content can be found.

Perhaps the seventh episode was published in a newspaper issue that doesn't appear here.

However, it was not included in this library, so Gu Xinghe and the others could not see the subsequent content at this time.

Or perhaps it's because fewer and fewer readers like it that this article is becoming increasingly popular.

This led to the newspaper being ruthlessly "cut in half" by the editor-in-chief of the magazine behind it, making it impossible for [Episode 7] to appear.

Therefore, in retrospect, the taboo surrounding pure love at the beginning of this article was indeed eye-catching enough.

But like the number of newspapers in this library, it was a case of "peaking at the start".

The story continued to decline until it seemed to reach a permanent end without any conclusion.
