Chapter 618: Yoshino Is Madly Blaming Others

When Luoyang saw the list of nominees for the Edogawa Ranpo Award, he was stunned.

He had refused to reveal his personal identity information, so why was he finally selected for the Edogawa Ranpo Award?

He frowned slightly, and then seemed to remember something, and went directly to the backstage of Twitter to contact the contact of Kadokawa Publishing: "Is there something wrong? Why am I shortlisted for the Edogawa Ranpo Award?"

"This is the sincerity of our Kadokawa Publishing!"

The other party seemed to have guessed that Teacher Theking would find him, so Luoyang received a reply within ten seconds of sending the message.

Seeing the other party's reply, Luoyang understood the reason. He frowned and thought about it, and his fingers quickly typed on the keyboard: "It may be a pity, but I still think I should tell you one thing, because it seems that everyone has a common misunderstanding. In fact, I am not Japanese."

He may have some cooperation with Kadokawa Publishing in the future, so it will be more convenient to be open and honest earlier.

As for the other party refusing to cooperate with him because he is not Japanese, this probability is too low for Japanese capitalists who put profit above all else. After all, qualified capitalists will not consider moral integrity in the face of profit.

However, it is worth mentioning that Luoyang did not receive a reply from the other party for two minutes after sending the message.

Just when Luoyang was about to lose patience and was about to turn off the computer and go out to feed Migulu, Luoyang saw another reply from the other party.

"Teacher Theking... don't joke... you can write mystery novels with Japanese characteristics such as "White Night Walk", "Suspect X's Devotion" and "Summer of the Bird"... how could you not be a Japanese..."

The other party seemed a little confused, which can be seen from the dense ellipsis.

However, Luoyang felt that even if he told the people at Kadokawa Publishing about this matter, the other party would not publicize it.

Even if this matter is exposed, it will not cause much loss to himself, so Luoyang thinks that the impact of this matter is not that serious. He stated: "I am not kidding, I am really not Japanese, you don't need to ask more questions about the rest."

When Yoshino, who was responsible for contacting Teacher Theking, saw Teacher Theking reiterated for the second time that he was not Japanese, Yoshino was really confused.

What is the situation? Is Teacher Theking, who created "White Night Walk", "Devotion of Suspect X" and "Summer of the Birds", really not Japanese? Judging from Teacher Theking's understanding of Japanese culture, this is really too incredible!

Even some Japanese people have not studied Japanese culture more deeply than Teacher Theking, right?

No, no, the point is not this, the point is-Teacher Theking, who defeated the first Japanese reasoning teacher Endo Ma and was regarded by countless Japanese people as the future hope of the Japanese reasoning world, is actually not a native, but a foreigner...

Pah, Teacher Theking is a foreigner?

This news was so shocking that Yoshino's head lost its ability to think for a moment and became a mess.

He was sure that if this news spread, it would cause an uproar. Even Endo Ma, who was recently defeated by Teacher Theking, would be unwilling to make a comeback, because Teacher Theking's victory represented the defeat of Japanese reasoning!

Although everyone was a little sad about Endo Ma's failure, they felt more that there was a feeling that there were always talented people in the Japanese reasoning world.

This was based on the fact that Teacher Theking was Japanese. Endo Ma's loss to other Japanese people showed that there were successors to Japanese reasoning. If Endo Ma's loss to people from other countries, the meaning would no longer be the same!

"Which country are you from?"

Yoshino asked this question with almost trembling fingers.

Even though Teacher Theking had told him not to ask too many questions, he still couldn't help asking.

So he was doomed to get no answer, because Teacher Theking had no intention of telling him: "You should know that if you use reasoning, it is meaningless to tell the truth in advance. Of course, I will let Japanese readers accept this in the most gradual way."

Describe this matter with reasoning?

Yoshino really wants to complain, your "White Night Walk" and "The Devotion of Suspect X" are not the truth told in advance.

Of course, he just thought about it and didn't dare to say it. No matter which country Teacher Theking is from, the other party can bring huge benefits to Kadokawa Publishing and add a strong stroke to his career.

So, he didn't dare to offend Teacher Theking.

Besides, if he only thinks about the benefits, it seems that it doesn't matter whether Teacher Theking is Japanese or not.

Thinking of this, Yoshino's tense pressure eased a lot. He said to himself: "This matter still needs to be reported to the company, but from my understanding of the president and others, I'm afraid this secret will only rot in the minds of the company's top management. Poor Edogawa Ranpo Award, it will probably be cheated. After all, this award has never been awarded to a foreigner."

This time, Yoshino made up his mind.

The Edogawa Ranpo Award was a scam. Who would have thought that Teacher Theking, who wrote works with extremely Japanese characteristics, was not Japanese?

Of course, Yoshino was also a little lucky. He thought that maybe Teacher Theking was a Japanese, but he didn't want to admit it deliberately because of some unknown reasons. If that was the case, it would be great.

Or, Teacher Theking was a mixed-race, as long as he had Japanese ancestry.

In the end, Yoshino could only smile bitterly and shook his head. In fact, he also knew that the possibility of his guess was too small.

Teacher Theking's two statements obviously also explained this point. The other party didn't need to make up a lie to deceive himself, because this kind of deception was meaningless.

However, when Japanese book fans found out that the omnipotent Teacher Theking was not Japanese, what would they feel? Would they feel fooled, even though Teacher Theking had never admitted his nationality——

Yes, Teacher Theking had never admitted his nationality.

Kadokawa Publishing was not responsible for this. They just needed to pretend that they didn't know, right?

Anyway, it is taken for granted that Mr. Theking is Japanese, and it is just because of countless fans of his books and those old veterans in the mystery world, ok, the blame has been successfully passed!
