Chapter 990 The Unkillable Child
Yes!
First day sales were great!
Major bookstores around the world are overcrowded, especially in Western countries. Almost all the customers in the bookstores come to buy "Harry Potter". This makes many people who claim to be knowledgeable are a little confused. Obviously, everyone on the Internet is talking about it. Look, why are you rushing to buy the book as soon as it goes on sale?
Hurrah!
Books of "Harry Potter" were sold.
Some people in the industry have already figured out the reason: the reason why "Harry Potter" sold so well on the first day was not because everyone was looking forward to the content of this book. In fact, the vast majority of people who bought "Harry Potter" were It's because the author of "Harry Potter" is Teacher Theking, and because it is the work of Teacher Theking, many people are willing to pay for it!
This is a typical pen name effect!
Everyone said they were not optimistic about it, but in fact they still had vague expectations in their hearts. After all, "Harry Potter" is the work of Mr. Theking. Of course, if the content of "Harry Potter" is not strong, then in the next few days, , this hot-selling momentum will decrease, and even the value of Teacher Theking’s pen name will be over-consumed as a result.
but……
As one of the best-selling children's literature works in the world, is the content of "Harry Potter" not good enough?
Allen doesn't think so. Well, Allen is a sixteen-year-old British boy. His biggest characteristic is that he likes reading books, including mystery, science fiction, fantasy, and magic. He is willing to accept works of various themes, and even He will also be interested in some comic works. As a young man with a very rich imagination, Allen likes to wander in the ocean of stories.
This is cool!
Alan likes Theking very much.
Especially Theking's "Sherlock Holmes" once made Allen feel crazy, so when Teacher Theking's new book called "Harry Potter" was released, Allen went to the bookstore and bought it home.
Well.
While other children were living around with the pocket money given by their adults, Allen's pocket money had been donated to major bookstores in the city. Anyway, he usually only had to stay at home and read.
Same today.
After buying back "Harry Potter", Alan was not ready to go out. It happened that his pocket money was also used to buy books. He would use today's time to read this new work by Teacher Theking.
"It's said that transformation is risky, but it's not that complicated..."
As a reading expert, Allen can name at least five or more great writers who can achieve success across fields. Not to mention, the master named Luoyang from the Dragon Kingdom has crossed countless fields and achieved success in all of them. Luoyang can achieve extraordinary achievements, why can’t Teacher Theking do it——
This is the basis for Allen's confidence in "Harry Potter".
Of course, you have confidence, and the conclusion ultimately depends on the content of the work. Thinking of this, Alan immediately tore off the packaging of "Harry Potter". When tearing off the packaging, Alan noticed, "Haha" There is a small "一" character after the title of "Lippert". It seems that this is a series of works like "Sherlock Holmes"?
What a great series!
The longer the article, the grander the story. This is the conclusion Allen has come to after years of reading!
Opening the book, he began to read: [The Dursleys who live at No. 4 Privet Drive always say proudly that they are a very well-behaved family. Please, please. They never have anything to do with mysterious and weird things, because they don't believe in those evil ways at all. Mr. Vernon Dursley worked as a supervisor in a company called Granning. He was tall and burly, so fat that he almost had no neck, but he had a big beard...]
The first chapter is called "The Boy Who Lived."
The first part of the plot introduces the Dursley family. There is nothing surprising about this. What is surprising is that Mr. Dursley encountered some strange things while he was at work——
For example, if a cat is reading a map, how can the cat read the map?
Another example is a group of mysterious people wearing cloaks, some of whom are wearing emerald green robes. What are they doing in strange clothes...
In addition, owls fly around at sunrise. You must know that owls feed at night and sleep during the day. Even the so-called experts cannot explain why owls change their sleeping habits.
Also, the weather forecast was for rain, but it turned out that there were meteor showers in many areas!
All this was so abnormal, and it suddenly aroused Allen's strong curiosity: "Why is this happening? The man in the cloak said that the mysterious man is gone. What does this mean? What does the mysterious man mean?" who?"
With this curiosity, Allen continued to read.
The scene that happened next made Allen couldn't help but be shocked: the tabby cat that was looking at the map disappeared and was replaced by a serious-looking woman wearing a pair of square glasses that looked like the lines around the cat's eyes. Exactly the same, she also wore an emerald green cloak, and her black hair was pulled into a tight bun——
A tabby cat becomes human?
These people must be the wizards mentioned in Mr. Theking’s tweet, right?
Allen became excited. He had read a lot of wizard novels. Although there were not many Western wizard-themed works, they were not too few, but there were only a few that were outstanding. This "Harry Potter" ”, the introduction to wizards was very attractive, and the use of magic in it made him even more amazed!
"I said, Teacher Theking will not let people down!"
Thinking of this, Alan couldn't wait to read on. It was also through the conversation between Dumbledore and the human transformed by the tabby cat that Alan knew who the mysterious man they had mentioned before was -
Voldemort!
Just listening to the name, it is a very evil existence, right?
In addition to being evil, it is also a very powerful existence, which can be felt through the character dialogue:
"After Voldemort killed the Potters, he also wanted to kill the Potters' son Harry, but he failed. He couldn't kill the child. No one knew why, and no one knew how he couldn't kill him. But they said that when Voldemort couldn't kill Harry, his magic failed for some reason, so he left."
After Voldemort left, a group of wizards were jubilant, which was proof of Voldemort's power.
But now Alan is more interested in the child named Harry. Voldemort is already powerful enough, but he can't kill a baby in swaddling clothes. What kind of existence is this person named Harry...
Alan is even more excited!
