Chapter 489 The Old One Doesn't Go, The New One Doesn't Come

Chapter 489 The Old One Doesn't Go, The New One Doesn't Come

"Finally it stopped."

When the department's phone stopped ringing wildly, and when the editors under him stopped calling "editor-in-chief and editor-in-chief", Cao Dezhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After thinking for a while, he opened the "Detective Poirot Collection" at hand, and looked at the last paragraph.

[Hastings suddenly sees a person.

The man should be over 1.8 meters tall, holding a bowler hat in his left hand, and bowing to Poirot's tombstone.

Hastings had never seen this person before, so he couldn't help but go forward.

"Excuse me, are you..."

The man combed his hair back, his angular face was like a polished diamond, and his slender aquiline nose made his appearance look particularly alert and decisive. For some reason, Hastings felt a trace of familiarity in him.

"Sherlock Holmes."

The man took off his bowler hat and introduced himself.

"Are you a friend of M. Poirot?"

"It's just that he has heard too many stories about him, and he is just a worshiper who came here admiringly from afar."

The man named Holmes said.

As the man turned and left, Hastings looked at the other's back, and finally knew where the sense of familiarity came from——

His eyes, like Poirot. 】

This is the last scene of "Detective Poirot" written by Chu Kuang.

Cao Dezhi confirmed with Chu Kuang that this is the male protagonist of Chu Kuang's next mystery novel.

This made Cao Dezhi very excited. Poirot's death was certainly uncomfortable, but Chu Kuang was still willing to continue writing reasoning. For him, the editor-in-chief of Yinlan's reasoning department, this was the best news.

"It's just that there is too little information, only the appearance description and the name of the protagonist."

Cao Dezhi was thoughtful.

In fact, not only Cao Dezhi noticed this passage.

online.

As everyone began to accept Poirot's death, many people's attention gradually shifted to the character who appeared at the end, which caused a lot of speculation——

obviously.

Poirot's death shocked everyone's minds, so that at the beginning, everyone was talking about Poirot.

No one mentioned this new character.

Moreover, although this person appeared at the end of "Detective Poirot", there are only a few narrations.

Only when everyone calms down will they find out what's unusual.

"Why did such a character suddenly appear at the end?"

"Is this man really not related to Poirot?"

"Then what about Hastings' feelings? You must know that this text suddenly changes from Hastings' first perspective to third perspective. In the original words, this Sherlock's Eyes like Poirot."

"Is Chu Kuang implying that Poirot is not dead?"

"If that's the case, even though it's just a hint, then I have to boast that the old thief also has a conscience when he finds out."

"etc."

"I thought of a bigger possibility. Could this person be the protagonist of Chu Kuang's next novel?"

"No way?"

"Similar to the second part of "Detective Poirot", Chu Kuang is going to replace Poirot with a new protagonist?"

"impossible."

"I only accept Poirot and no one else, Poirot is irreplaceable!"

"plus one."

"My heart has already died with Poirot. Chu Kuang wants to replace Poirot with a new character."

"..."

Around this point, the network has a small discussion.

Because the signs are not yet obvious, many people can't guess what the appearance of this man named Sherlock Holmes means. Everyone just vaguely feels that this pit has a follow-up.

Because as far as the appearance of the characters is concerned, it doesn't make sense.

Unless for some reason, this appearance makes sense, what would be the reason?

...

The same question was also asked from Jinmu's mouth: "Who is this Sherlock?"

"The protagonist of the next book."

Lin Yuan didn't hide anything, he had told Cao Dezhi before.

Jin Mu was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Are you planning to write another detective protagonist like Poirot?"

"You're only half right."

Lin Yuan said: "Sherlock and Poirot are both detectives, but their personalities and methods of solving crimes are very different in many aspects. The only thing they have in common is their relentless pursuit of the truth."

"really."

Jin Mu smiled bitterly: "So you really didn't get tired of writing Poirot's story, so you ended it suddenly?"

"no."

The story is indeed written.

Moreover, Lin Yuan also knew that Poirot's death would cause an uproar among the readers.

But obviously, Lin Yuan still underestimated the scale of the riot, and also underestimated everyone's feelings towards Poirot.

Fortunately, everyone still has reason.

After comparing the previous texts, everyone accepted Poirot's death.

Because Poirot was very old.

For such a heroic character, it is difficult to imagine his decayed appearance, and it is not too bad to let him live in the hearts of readers forever in this way.

"It's fine if you don't."

Jin Muhou said fearfully: "You have to take it easy in the future, don't be caught off guard and throw a razor blade. After finishing the novel, even I want to go to your house and smash the glass."

"Antarctica will take care of the house."

Lin Yuan seemed to think carefully, and then gave a very sincere answer.

Kaneki: "..."

Of course he knew that Lin Yuan's family had a dog, and that Nanji had acted in the movie "Hachiko".

It can be called a big star in the dog world.

He didn't entangle Lin Yuan on this topic, but changed his voice:

"Won't the protagonist of the next inference also receive a box lunch?"

Lin Yuan paused for a few seconds before saying, "No."

Although in the story, Sherlock Holmes was indeed written to death for a time, he was eventually resurrected.

Jin Mu couldn't help taking a step back: "Boss, are you serious about your hesitation just now?"

"Then are you serious about taking half a step back?"

"You can't do that, I'm absolutely serious, serious and from the bottom of my heart advising you to be kind!"

"..."

Resurrection is not death.

Jin Mu sighed: "Anyway, you decide to do it yourself, but readers, everyone needs warmth and comfort, why don't you say something?"

"OK."

Lin Yuan also felt that the readers needed to be appeased.

He logged into Chu Kuang's tribal account, and after confirming that he had not registered the wrong account, he sent a message:

"The preview of the new book is still a mystery novel, "The Great Detective Sherlock Holmes"."

The thing that can make readers happy is probably that I am about to release a new book——

Lin Yuan could clearly feel that every time he released a new book, the readers' mood would improve.

It was the best consolation he could think of.

You can’t learn from Lao Xu and say that I, Chu Kuang, am actually a “soldier of love”; say, “The purpose of my creation is to bring you stories of warmth and healing”, right?

However.

After Lin Yuan posted this post, Jin Mu suddenly changed color: "Boss, how can you do this, do you know what your behavior is like now?"

"like what?"

"Like a provocation."

It is not for nothing that King Lanling is hated so much!

You wrote Poirot to death, and then you want to replace Poirot's position in everyone's hearts with a new character?

Are you trying to say that if the old ones don’t go, the new ones won’t come?

Readers will accept it! ?
