The front desk of a bookstore.

After seeing the sales situation of "Roger's Mystery", the manager who specially observed the sales situation couldn't help showing a smile, and said a meaningful sentence:

"There is another writer in the book circle who can rely on fame to make a living."

This evaluation is not low!

Under normal circumstances, readers will read a book before buying it.

Although the price of a novel is not expensive, it is a sum of money after all, so be cautious.

But there are some writers whose works, readers don't even read them, just pay for them!

Because they have great trust in this writer's level!

The previous "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" didn't have this kind of power, so many readers would still read it before deciding whether to buy it.

But when it comes to this "Roger's Mystery", readers have basically no hesitation!

Even if Chu Kuang writes about a subject he has never touched before, as in the past, it will not affect the readers' enthusiasm for buying.

This is a typical example of being able to live off fame!

"It's also related to Chu Kuang becoming a great writer."

The secretary next to the manager said thoughtfully, the literary and art association has organized a great god award.

Writers who have won the Great God Award have a tendency to double their worth.

Writers who can make readers pay so decisively are basically at the beginning level of the Great God Award.

"We may have to restock."

After observing for a while, the secretary smiled.

The manager nodded. The first-day sales of "Roger's Mystery" will probably be pretty good in terms of sales data, and the first-day data is the most intuitive way to explain the influence of a writer!

……

as predicted.

When the first-day sales of "Roger's Mystery" came out, the entire Yinlan library was very excited!

Because on the first day the novel was released, 91.4 copies were directly sold, including online book purchase channels!

Nearly a million on the first day!

This thing has a special agency statistics, which belongs to the department directly under the Literature and Art Association, just like the box office of a movie, there are official statistics every day.

You know it's only the first day!

Out of confidence in the word-of-mouth of "Roger's Mystery", the reasoning department of Yinlan Library does not think that the follow-up sales of this book will be so weak——

"How do you say it?"

Cao Dezhi smiled like a fool weighing 84.26 kilograms: "Thighs are thighs everywhere!"

The same conclusion also appeared in the fantasy department of Yinlan Library.

Although Chu Kuang's new book has little to do with the fantasy department, the department still pays close attention to the news of the novel. When they saw the official sales data, the editors in the department all had complicated expressions.

"The Department of Reasoning is right, thighs are thighs everywhere..."

"Vulgar, it should be said that wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat!"

"I originally pointed out that the response to this novel was mediocre, but Mr. Chu Kuang returned to our arms and continued to write fantasy novels..."

"Looking at the word-of-mouth on the Internet, this matter can be regarded as hopeless."

"I also bought a copy and read it at night. I have a buddy in the reasoning department who keeps telling me that this book is going to explode."

"..."

Inside the Yinlan library, there have been rumors that Chu Kuang's new book is very powerful, but because of the principle of confidentiality before publication, the specific content cannot be accessed by other departments.

But as an editor said.

With the release of "Roger's Mystery" and the first batch of readers finished reading this novel, the online reviews have exploded!

Blue Star reasoning readers, this is the first time they have encountered the baptism of narration!

A book network.

The first hot comment on "Roger's Mystery", under the principle of not involving spoilers, resonated with everyone to the greatest extent:

"The murderer turned out to be him!!!"

The number of likes for this hot comment is: 34566

It can be regarded as some kind of correct nonsense, saying it means not saying it, but out of the basic quality of not spoiling, this comment already has a strong hint.

The second hot comment is more interesting.

Simple two words, and multiple ellipses:

"I wipe!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The front row is mostly positive.

"Readers who read this comment, I suggest you don't read the online reviews first, buy a copy of "Roger's Mystery" and read it yourself, and come here after reading it. You will thank me for reminding me afterwards."

"If only Poirot hadn't retired here to grow pumpkins..."

"Seeing the ending, I was stupid."

"Let's stop talking nonsense, this is the kind of masterpiece that everyone recommends, and if you don't read it, you will regret it in life."

"It's no exaggeration to say that seeing the ending, I broke out in a cold sweat."

"The old thief Chu Kuang deceived me so badly! But I am willing to be deceived again, and there is no one else."

"Whoever can guess the murderer in advance, please accept my worship!"

"Ahhhhh! The murderer turned out to be Shepard!!!!"

"The upstairs is too wicked. I suggest that the administrator control the review. Once this book is spoiled, the reading experience will be directly reduced by 50%."

"Someone actually gave a thumbs up to the spoiler comment...Are you serious?"

"Gentlemen, I like Poirot!"

"The reasoning structure is so neat. At the end, all the doubts of the case are answered. All the clues are not missed. The foreshadowing of the previous details is also very perfect. I can't imagine that this is the first time for Chu Kuang to write reasoning! On cross-genre writing I Succumb to Chu Kuang!"

"..."

In the reasoning circle, many small groups exploded immediately, and obviously many people also read "Roger's Mystery" immediately.

In a group of reasoning writers.

The administrator suddenly said a word: "Remind teachers who haven't started watching "Roger's Mystery" remember to block the chat history, otherwise they will be spoiled and doubt their lives."

Some people do it skillfully, while others have cat-like curiosity.

Then the members of the unshielded group saw that many writers who usually don't bubble up came out, all discussing "Roger's Mystery"——

"The publicity of the Yinlan library is not watery. If you accept it, it really creates a new genre!"

"A unique creative technique in the history of mystery novels."

"The case can only be said to be quite satisfactory, the murderer is basically impossible to guess, Chu Kuang made a text trap and fooled the readers, but this novel is the type that even if you are fooled, you can't help being shocked when you see the ending. "

"Who would have thought that the murderer was me as No.1?"

"Stop talking, I have inspiration for my next book."

"It's not just that you have inspiration for your next book. It is estimated that many authors in the circle have inspiration."

"If this style of writing becomes popular... Ma Dan, readers will be pissed off if they read too much!"

"Inference is to dig a hole. "Roger's Mystery" is the biggest hole I have ever seen. I can't guess the murderer until Chapter 4. 90.00% of the readers are completely defeated!"

"..."

The group member who didn't block the group because of curiosity sent an ellipsis: "What do I think of this book?"

Immediately, an unkind "hahahahaha" +1 mark appeared in the group.

Due to the nature of a repeater, or perhaps due to obsessive-compulsive disorder, this person can only say "+1" with tears in his eyes.

The cat was killed by curiosity.

Other novels know in advance that the result readability will drop by at least 30.00%.

And "Roger's Mystery" was spoiled in advance, and the readability decreased by about 50.00%——

Murder for the reading experience is deadly!

And as time went on to the next day, word of mouth quickly brewed, and the sales of "Roger's Mystery" completely exploded, directly soaring to 160 million copies!

Even higher than the first day!

Even if Blue Star started to merge, the readership base is getting bigger and bigger, and the sales volume on the second day has shocked countless people!

Best seller!

All the rage!

This is a storm of reasoning, so far no one doubts the evaluation of Chu Kuang's phrase "creating a new type of reasoning" in the propaganda of Yinlan Library!

That's right, this is indeed a new way of writing.

The murderer can be more than just me——

The development of ideas has made many reasoning writers realize that tricks can be used not only in the case itself, but also in every word that readers read!

A real trickster!

And the scariest part is...

Even if the whole story of "Roger's Mystery" is deceiving, readers will be willing to be deceived at the end!

this day.

Shen Jiarui's latest news on the tribe, although there are only three simple words, but it embodies the word "blowing" to the extreme. Those three words are:

"Who else!?"

Chapter 3 Narrative Ruse

Who else?

I don't know, I thought you, Shen Jiarui, were the author of "Roger's Mystery".

There are people in the circle who slander, but they have to admit that there is nothing wrong with this guy's bragging about Chu Kuang before.

It is indeed the number one Chu Chui.

Of course, not all evaluations are good. "Roger Mystery" is the most controversial work of Grandma. The evaluation does not say that it is polarized, and there are indeed some disliked voices——

"The narrative technique is too sloppy. For the shocking effect of the ending, the excitement of the case was sacrificed, and it feels like the end of the story."

"Obviously it's to fool readers, or many people feel happy being fooled. It's really clever, but I don't like this kind of reasoning."

"I also don't like this way of writing, but I also admit that this is indeed a new type of reasoning and creation. I can only pray that the writers I like don't follow suit."

"The reasoning can't be completely judged by the inability to guess... Evil way of writing, I still prefer to reason in a hearty way, rather than playing this kind of word game with the writer."

"The ending is indeed shocking, but am I the only one who thinks the first and mid-terms are drowsy?"

"Although it's really great, I can't accept this kind of narrative. There is a subtle emotion of [although it's amazing, but I've been tricked], which feels a little bad."

"..."

There is a price to be paid for playing tricks on readers!

Because not everyone can accept this kind of play.

Moreover, there are different types of reasoning, and the narrative reasoning is precisely the "poison point" of some reasoning fans.

When Grandma launched "Roger's Mysterious Case", she also encountered many doubts. She believed that this article was unfair to readers, and the emergence of new things would face controversy.

at this time.

Those who feel that they have been poisoned are not only some readers, but also writers!

Yes, some reasoning writers felt that they had been tricked after reading "Roger's Mystery", and immediately scolded Chu Kuang after reading it.
