"boom--"
The next second, Gano arrived as called.
The petals of the scarlet lotus unfolded, spitting out the armored Gano. The moment he appeared, the strange light bands of the entire electrical layer trembled, sending out an alarming radio wave warning.
Xi Yujin reached out his hand to him, and his worries disappeared. The excitement of escaping surged into his brain. It was his first time escaping, and the interstellar era was so interesting. Gano embraced him, and a firm and reassuring voice came from under the armor:
"Please hold me tight, Emberno."
Xi Yujin looked at Ganuo closely. Before he could figure out Ganuo's intention, he felt a ball of electricity explode in his ears. He almost thought he was going to split apart. After a second of dizzy and tinnitus explosion, they had already flown over the electric layer and arrived at the rock layer. Ganuo adjusted his posture, trying to protect Xi Yujin, and tore the space for the second time. This time, Xi Yujin saw swirling rainbows in front of his eyes.
After the uncomfortable pressure disappeared, they had arrived above the Arctic Ocean. The night was dark, the wind was cold, and the stars in the distance were like a bright moon.
"Next we will speed up." Gano was particularly reliable at this moment.
Xi Yujin nodded, and after a while he said, "The lotus is really beautiful."
"Lotus?" Ganuo figured out what Xi Yujin was referring to and said, "That's not a lotus, it's the sharp teeth of a space worm."
Xi Yujin: "Did you see the scenery of the electric layer just now? It's very magical."
Gano: "I saw it." He was rarely moved by the scenery outside, but thinking back on the glance just now, the feeling he had when looking at the scenery seemed different from before.
Xi Yujin: "I hope we can see more scenery together."
They gradually rose higher, and several flashes of light appeared from the ground. The Flash tribe moved to the ground aggressively. Da Zi gave an order, saying, "Prepare the spacecraft! Intercept the Zerg for me! Return the diamond cub, ah ah ah he is very fragile! He is still so small!" Da Zi was scared to death. Trackers from several ground bases broke through the air and circled in gorgeous air trails.
"What a touching friendship. Although I don't know why they are running away... Big brother in armor who took Diamond away, you must win!" Even though Da Zi was so anxious, there were many flash tribes who were leisurely watching the show. They were still children in the flash tribe. So they gossiped about the relationship between the Blue Star diplomats, the Zerg and the Flash Empire, which made Da Zi very angry.
Xi Yujin and Ganuo came to the Tide. Xi Yujin sat in the main seat of the cockpit and pressed the lever of the automatic driving. The Tide will fly to the port star along the set orbit. There, there is a planetary pilot ship, ready to take thousands of spaceships for a big jump. That is the best escape route Xi Yujin has calculated.
Behind the Tide Level, there were a bunch of huge spaceships from the Glittering Empire, and many mineral giants were chasing after them on their spaceships!
Xi Yujin looked back and pushed his speed to the maximum. It was officially announced that after causing a bloody storm in the Three Courts, they would take the first prizes of the three essay contests and run away!
…
"This must be a trick."
In the Materialistic Reading Club, the members analyzed rationally. They were not panicked, but smiled as if they had seen through everything.
"Yes, that must be the case. This is Mr. Yongye's usual trick. He first makes us panic when we see the title, and then reveals the truth at the end. In fact, everything is Mr. Zhong's trick to lure out the murderer. The readers and the people at the scene have been deceived by him."
The members breathed a sigh of relief.
"If I cry so shamefully, Mr. Yongye will definitely be hiding somewhere laughing. Haha, Mr. Yongye, you can't fool us this time. We are all loyal readers of Mr. Zhong's Detective Stories."
The pink starfish said in embarrassment: "Then let's upload the article now? Mr. Ember just said that we can finish it in one go, and that way the reading experience will be the best."
"Of course, the readers will be shocked."
"I can't wait to read Mr. Yongye's new work. It doesn't matter if it's finished. We can still make an appointment for the second part."
"Isn't the name 'Mr. Zhong's Detective Cases 2' a bit old-fashioned? Let's think of a cooler name for Mr. Yongye to choose from."
"Actually, I have a good idea. Can we ask Mr. Yongye to publish a sequel about the Xiao Zhong period? I've even thought of a name for it. It's called "The Famous Detective Xiao Zhong"! Isn't it catchy?"
The members were laughing and talking happily, as if there was no cloud in the future.
Only they know how nervous they are.
Fan Starfish was shaking like an earthquake, uploading the manuscripts one by one.
The number of hits on the Material Library increased dramatically. Many readers just woke up and habitually checked in to see if Yongye had updated. They found that Yongye had updated many chapters at once, and smiled with satisfaction and happiness, sharing the link with friends to read together. Several detective fans even formed their own private chat group, where everyone watched online at the same time and expressed their opinions in real time. The atmosphere was peaceful.
"This "The Most Unlikely Murderer" is actually a family story. It was originally a threatening letter. I thought it was a warning of a murder case, but I didn't expect that the reporter was the murderer of another case. The threatening letter was sent to get evidence. If no evidence was obtained, the victim might be forced to become the murderer of the new case... Fortunately, Mr. Zhong deduced both cases. Seeing him appear, I feel so safe..."
"Wow! A new case has come out! 'Mr. Shi's Mystery Murder Case', go for it, Mr. Zhong will definitely win!"
"Mr. Shi actually appeared as the second detective. He said he didn't know the truth of the case. Because he gave opinions to all the participants in the case, he didn't know how it would turn out."
"It's like beating up Mr. Shi. He didn't do anything, but in order to create the 'impossible puzzle', he aroused the demons in so many people's hearts!"
"The sheriff showed up, and he did it. He punched Mr. Shi twice. He is worthy of being him!"
"Mr. Zhong stopped the sheriff. Mr. Zhong and the sheriff will have a bright future. Mr. What-Shi can just wait to be defeated."
This private chat group was obviously composed entirely of detectives and his sheriff's faction, and they were extremely unhappy with Mr. Shi.
Watching Mr. Zhong and Mr. Shi jointly solve the case in the text, just like when they were children, the dissatisfied comments were about to overflow the screen. But the sheriff was telling a stand-up comedy sourly, which was a bit funny, so the atmosphere was relaxed.
Unexpectedly, the murderer in this case was not at the scene. "Mystery Murder Case" tells the story of a group of old classmates who are reunited. One of their friends died accidentally after falling off a cliff. That friend was a very kind person and often invited them to his home to play. It was only later that his parents got divorced that the friends suggested going out to play.
The partner's fall off the cliff did not seem to be an accident, and it might have something to do with the play they were having. The surviving children felt guilty and promised to keep the secret absolutely. However, when they grew up, they used this secret to threaten their partner. Because of what they had experienced over the years, they had a grudge against each other and decided to actually carry out the murder plan when they reunited.
Mr. Shi gave everyone a different puzzle, and the answer was the most suitable way to kill.
Because this group of people did nothing, Mr. Zhong knew about Mr. Shi's trick and could only sit tight. He pretended to be a passing tourist, watching the old classmates' gathering, trying to prevent the murder, and occasionally dealing with Mr. Shi's jokes. Every day was a headache.
However, the group of old classmates did nothing, and Mr. Zhong discovered something else.
After a 12-day reunion tour, the old classmates came to the place where their friend fell off the cliff and decided to sincerely confess their guilt and admit their mistakes. At the most critical moment, their conscience defeated the devil.
Mr. Zhong appeared at the end and said that he found evidence that his partner was indeed murdered when he fell off the cliff, but it was not anyone present, but his partner's father. He deliberately took away the child's psychiatric drugs, hoping to have one less burden when divorcing. His partner was in a trance, had auditory hallucinations, and accidentally fell off the cliff.
This group of classmates who met each other in childhood, the moment they faced the demons in their hearts, also pushed themselves away from the abyss of the demons.
Some readers outside the book were angry and some were moved by the child who fell off the cliff. It was Mr. Zhong's insistence on the bright side of human nature that gave him the motivation to dig out the truth that even Mr. Shi didn't know. Even though Mr. Shi gave him great mental pressure this time, he still stood firm on his bottom line.
Mr. Zhong's headache seems to be getting better.
Mr. Shi's face was gloomy.
[“This is not the ending I want.” Mr. Shi said, “You should be getting closer to me, why did you go further away? Were you not happy when you solved the puzzle? Were you not as happy as when I set the puzzle? We should have been the best opponents——”
"You are no match for me," Mr. Zhong said. "I am much better than you. It was like this when I was a child, and it is still like this when I grow up."
Seeing Mr. Shi's surprised expression, the sheriff laughed beside him: "Of course, that guy is the most versatile detective!"
So, Mr. Shi extended a final invitation to Mr. Zhong. 】
"The last invitation!" Everyone in the reading club was excited as they read it. "Mr. Zhong's sentence about being much better than Mr. Shi was so cool! Let me see the next chapter... ah, why is it "Mr. Zhong's Death"! "
"No, no, no, it's impossible..." The seafood shook their heads.
The readers of the Material Library were silent for a while, and they typed a series of question marks. More and more readers asked for spoilers on the forum, not wanting to read on. Some readers also said carelessly that it must be a conspiracy of the Eternal Night.
How could Mr. Zhong die?
He dug out the truth in the darkness and held on to the bottom line of light. The shadow of his childhood did not make him retreat. Instead, more and more cases made him more and more courageous. How could such a person die so easily?
From the author's perspective, Mr. Zhong's Detective Stories are very popular, and so many readers love this character. If the author's brain is not made of stone, he would not have given a death ending. Is Yongye crazy and wants to run away?
This title must be fake.
Look at the previous chapter of "The Puzzle Murder Case". Apart from the child who fell off the cliff at the beginning, there was no real murder case, right?
The reader's heart is tense, and he reads with the mentality of exploring the way for other readers. If he doesn't read it first, it will be troublesome if other readers spoil it.
"The Death of Mr. Zhong" begins with the sheriff receiving a suicide note.
【“My dear but not very smart friend, I am writing to you. By the time you receive this letter, I should have been buried in the fire. Please don’t grieve for me, because I have more important things for you to do. You are the only one in the world who can do it. If even you don’t agree, then my death will be meaningless.
There is only one Mr. Shi in this world, my childhood friend, and he may be dead. But there are many Mr. Shi alive. My fame is getting more and more prominent, which attracts something darker.
I don't want Mr. Shi's puzzle to create more Mr. Shi. So this difficult task is left to you. I take back what I said before that you are not very smart, but this letter was written too hastily, so please pretend that you didn't see it.
——Mr. Zhong’s handwriting”
"What a prank!" the sheriff shouted, but when he turned to the back of the letter and saw the first puzzle, he was sad to find that it was indeed Mr. Zhong's trick. But he soon thought optimistically that if he could solve it, Mr. Zhong might give him a hug at the end.
So the "Sheriff's Detective Collection" has begun serialization! 】
The sheriff has always been a character who stirs up the atmosphere in the novel. He occasionally appears to guess the wrong murderer, and is nicknamed the "reverse detective" by many readers. Before Mr. Shi officially appeared, some readers even had conspiracy theories that he and Mr. Shi were the same person. However, there are not so many twists and turns in this book, and the sheriff has always been a 100% good person.
Readers will smile knowingly when they see the name "The Sheriff's Detective Collection".
The readers who were relieved immediately called the readers who were afraid to read to go and read together, because the sheriff was going to decipher the code himself.
The sheriff has many strange ideas in his mind, and he always deduces Mr. Zhong's puzzle in an irrelevant direction, which makes readers outside the book very anxious. The most taboo in reading detective novels is stupid detectives. If the sheriff was not a comedy character who has appeared for a long time, they would probably curse him.
But the sheriff soon showed his investigative thinking. After all, he had been with Mr. Zhong for so long, constantly imitating Mr. Zhong's methods, quickly deducing answers one by one, and heading to the next location. This journey seemed like a trip, and readers followed the sheriff to recall previous cases and were surprised to find that Mr. Zhong had been with him for so long.
"Wow, is this the last case? Why is it so sentimental..."
"Mr. Yongye may need to take a break before finishing the book. We will wait patiently, there will always be a next part."
Based on the clues left by Mr. Zhong, the sheriff knows that there is a bomb hidden in the city and he must dismantle it quickly. Mr. Zhong cannot predict the future and can only give vague opinions. The sheriff still has to rely on real reasoning.
The clue was mainly a local myth that all the treasures in the city were hidden in a well. The sheriff used his wisdom to find the treasure location, the largest underground museum. In the critical countdown, he saw through the lies of the accomplice who gave the clue and successfully dismantled the bomb.
The crisis in the whole city was resolved, but the expected Mr. Zhong did not show up.
Is there a second case?
Where is Mr. Zhong?
He searched for a while with a panic in his heart, and finally calmed down. This time, he had to find Mr. Zhong without any clues. This was a puzzle that belonged to him alone.
As time goes by, the struggle in the hearts of some readers becomes more and more intense, as if the ticking clock is indicating the end of their fate.
【Snow.
On the other side of the snowy plain was a deep forest, with thick smoke billowing from the outermost part, and a small house was on fire. The bright fire illuminated the sheriff's face, and the shadow behind him trembled with the jumping of the fire.
He found Mr. Zhong's letter in the snowy forest. It was nailed to the wood, as if it knew someone would take it down.
"My most sincere, brave and wise friend, I am sorry that I can only meet you through letters, but I believe you can find this place...
I have never expressed my gratitude to you. Fighting against evil is something many people say, but few can follow through. I have always admired you. I tried to destroy all of Mr. Shi's records. He himself is not scary, but the deceptive ideas he left behind are scary. However, I made a fatal mistake. My power alone is too weak. I should have asked you for help, but it's too late...
Next, if you are willing to listen, please listen to my last case..."]
Mr. Shi’s last case, the answer is to make Mr. Zhong the murderer.
Mr. Zhong chased Mr. Shi to the oil-soaked cabin, where Mr. Shi showed his various evidences of crimes and revealed his conspiracy.
He said that he would attribute all his evidence to Mr. Zhong, and that he showed the evidence to facilitate forging traces. Because in other people's stories, Mr. Shi never appeared in his true face. When others saw the evidence, they would only think that Mr. Zhong was driven crazy by the nursery rhyme case. His dual personality caused him to create puzzles while playing the role of a detective to solve them. In the end, Mr. Zhong had a hysterical attack and burned an innocent passerby to death.
Mr. Shi threw out the torch, and the fire immediately covered the entire wooden house.
Rumors are the most unsolvable puzzle.
Mr. Zhong said there would be no such opportunity. Now he wanted to kill Mr. Shi himself. He would rather die together with him than to make sure that Mr. Shi would not escape from hell again.
Mr. Shi said that he had anticipated Mr. Zhong's choice. The real big case had already happened in another city. So he should quickly escape, save that city, and then try to dispel the rumors.
Mr. Zhong shook his head and said that Mr. Shi was not smart enough. He had already entrusted the real big cases to another detective. There was no perfect crime in the world. Potential criminals would be scared away by the wisdom of justice. It was impossible for anyone to inherit Mr. Shi's ideas in the future.
The fire engulfed their figures.
Only the letters in the woods were left, recording Mr. Zhong's thoughts before he came to the cabin. Of course, there was no way to know the conversation in the cabin, but judging from the burned and collapsed cabin and the corpse, Mr. Zhong used his death to burn the criminal devil on the snowy plain.
At this point, "The Death of Mr. Zhong" comes to an end.
"Mr. Zhong's Detective Cases" has been completed.
The Materialistic Library has become very cluttered.
Countless readers turned off their computers in a daze. A few minutes later, they showed painful expressions and rushed to the Material Library, almost crashing the server!
Countless shouts began to fill the screen.
"Why!! You old thief Yongye, come out here!! Why did you write Mr. Zhong to death! What I want is justice to triumph over evil and then have a party! Not justice to fall before dawn and only a memorial service for close friends will remain!"
"What? It's over? And this is the ending? I cried so loudly... Why, Yongye, what were you thinking? Why was it like this... I thought there would be a comeback when I saw the last sentence, but there wasn't. I thought Mr. Zhong would jump out and give the sheriff a hug, but he didn't. What were you thinking, Yongye!! I'm so crazy! When I'm crazy, even I'm afraid of myself! I'm a master of crime! Mr. Zhong, you're wrong! I have inherited Mr. Shi's will!"
"My heart hurts so much... it's bleeding... it's more painful than reading a hundred pieces of clichéd literature... I'm suffocating and can't breathe..."
"It's so powerful. When I leave the screen now, all I can think of is that snowfield. A blank snowfield with nothing on it. Haha! Nothing at all! Hahaha! The magma is empty, and the world is in eternal night!"
"Why did you have to let the sheriff witness this ending? Yongye, how did you write this ending?"
"I suspect Yongye is really an interstellar wanted criminal, charged with toying with readers."
"Ahhhhhh Mr. Zhong is almost out of his shadow, his headache is almost gone!! How could the future come to an abrupt end!"
"Eternal Night!!!"
Readers' sadness turned to anger.
"Where is Eternal Night!!!"
At a materialist reading group, a member took off his nameplate and shouted, "I don't believe in materialism anymore! I want Mr. Zhong to be resurrected!"
Then it boarded the spaceship and rushed in the direction where the Tide Level had left, leaving behind a cry:
"Ahhhh Yongye, change the ending for me!!"
In this universe, readers can come to any novelist and challenge him offline.
Behind it, countless readers' spaceships flew into space, forming a huge fleet.
