My neighbor's name is Conan

"I wonder if Aoki-san has any other suggestions?" Niina Kahori looked at Aoki-san expectantly and asked.

"This..." Aoki Song hesitated for a moment, and then put a disclaimer on himself, "If what I say is unpleasant, don't be angry."

Shinname Kahoori smiled slightly when he heard this, "Aoki-san, just say it, I won't be angry."

"Although I don't know how you plan to write it yet, judging from your retelling of the plot of the case just now, it is obviously very strong in the style of "Detective Zumonji"." Aoki Matsu looked at Niina Kahori and said: "I don't mean that. To say that this style is bad is just that after the popularity of "Detective Zuomonji", in the past few decades, too many people have imitated Shinmei-sensei's writing style. It has been too long, and some settings have become clichéd plots."

Just like the Great Desolation School and the Annulled Engagement School at a certain point in later generations. When they first came out, all the readers were shocked. But as time went by, many authors followed the trend and wrote these two schools to pieces. It was so bad that it reached a certain point. The time editor didn't even give me a contract.

Seeing that Niina Kahori was not angry, but was deep in thought, Aoki Song continued: "If the others are fine, but Niina-san, you are the daughter of Mr. Niinai. If you can't get out of "Detective Zuomonji", I'm afraid the public opinion will not be the same. It will be good." She said that no one would doubt that her father was ghostwriting for her.

"Thank you very much for your suggestion." Niina Kahori thanked her carefully. "Actually, my father also told me about this and wanted me to add some characteristics of my own, but I haven't thought of it yet. Do you have any good suggestions?"

Aoki Song thought for a while and said: "The protagonist has some specific actions, such as biting his fingers when thinking, or knocking on the table, or drinking tea, etc."

"I have actually thought about these, but I can only say that they are the characteristics of the protagonist, not mine. In fact, this type of protagonist is also very similar to the protagonist Matsuda Samomonji of "Detective Sakumonji". Now everyone thinks of Matsuda Samomonji. , that is, his strong reasoning ability and superb swordsmanship." Shinname Kahori said.

"As for adding some specific actions to the protagonist, as you said, many mystery novel writers have used this trick, such as loving food, loving desserts, only smoking a specific brand of cigarettes, etc. These seem to be different. Different, but actually the same, it can only be regarded as the icing on the cake.”

"That's it!" Aoki Song thought for a moment and said, "Shinname-san, have you ever watched "Roger's Mystery"?"

"Of course I have read Agatha Christie's "Roger Mystery"." Kahoori, the new name, nodded, "Agatha Christie's works can be said to be must-read classics in mystery novels."

""Roger Mystery" has two innovations. One is the innovative writing method, using narrative trick writing, and the other is groundbreaking in making the protagonist become the murderer in the end. Let alone that era, even now, the mainstream is still The protagonist is absolute justice.”

Hearing this, Niina Kahori said thoughtfully: "Do you want me to use a narrative trick, or also turn the protagonist into a murderer?"

Aoki Song heard this and shook his head with a smile: "I don't mean that. As the saying goes, 'Those who learn from me will live, and those who are like me will die.' I just think Agatha Christie's "Roger's Mystery" is the most successful mystery novel that breaks out of the box. You can study the works of thinking, this aspect of thinking, and describe the case from a person's perspective.

However, this requires a very strong imagination. If you are lacking in this aspect and want to impress people, I think there may be a shortcut. "

"What?" Niina Kahori looked at Aoki Song curiously after hearing this.

"We will enter the new century in a few years, but when I look at the mystery novels on the market, most of them still use traditional killing methods, and detectives are similar. Nowadays, the level of science and technology is so advanced, have you ever thought about killing people with high technology, or It’s a detective using high technology.”

Aoki Song said: "Some time ago, the media was reporting that the chairman of Jumu Group was killed because of high technology."

Xianna Xiangbaori whispered to himself after hearing this: "High technology?" Then he nodded, "This is indeed an idea, such as the simplest electrocution."

"In detective novels, apart from the modus operandi and logic, the biggest attraction is the reversal of the identity of the murderer in the end. The greater the reversal, the more people will be amazed by the case. For example, the famous detective is the murderer. In fact, if you are more daring, Some, maybe even one where no one is the real murderer in the end, but all the suspects are murderers!" Aoki Song thought for a while and then said.

"Ah?" Niina Kahori was very surprised when he heard this. His eyes looking at Aoki Song were full of confusion, "What does this mean?"

"The background of the story can be set as murderers will be sentenced to death. Initially, the deceased just died in an accident, but the first person who discovered his death deliberately fabricated the scene where someone killed the deceased or framed others. evidence, and then the second person came before the first person started to implement the frame-up plan.

He discovered the evidence that was forged by the first person at the scene. He might be the person who was framed, or he might be that person's parents. Then he forged it based on the forged scene, and then the third person , the fourth person... They play the dolls one by one in this way, and in the end no one is the murderer, but everyone is the murderer because they all want others to die. "

Hearing this, Niina Kahoori looked at Aoki Song with bright eyes: "Aoki-san, your idea is really bold, but if it can be written, it will definitely shock the entire mystery novel world."

"Xin Mingsan, you are exaggerating, and you also said that you need to be able to write it. My idea is good, but the requirements for the author are really too high. I don't have the ability to write it, so I can only It's just talk on paper." Aokisong said.

"No, I already have inspiration!" Niina Kahori was very excited when he heard this. He moved his chair towards Aoki Song, then held Aoki Song's hand, looked at him with sincerity and expectation and said: "Aoki-san, please let me use your ideas, and we can share the royalties equally."

His left hand was held by two small hands, and Qingmu Song felt so soft and small, followed by a sweet scent of roses.

Not cloying, smells great.

After this thought flashed through Aoki Song's mind, he suddenly came to his senses, "Shinname-san, if you want to write it, just finish it. I don't need to share the remuneration. I just said it casually. If you can write it, it's all yours." I don’t know how to write mystery novels.” Then he took out his hand calmly.

Niina Kahori seemed to realize what she had done in excitement. Seeing that Aokimatsu didn't expose it, she didn't mean to say anything, but her cheeks were slightly red. "Thank you very much. After I finish writing, I will be the first." Time invites you to taste it.”

Aoki Song was stunned when he heard this, "Shinname-san, I just said it casually, you are not really going to use this as your first independently published novel, are you?"

Mystery novels without a real murderer have not been tested by the market. Generally speaking, there are only two results, either becoming a god or losing your pants.

"Of course not." Niina Kahori said with a smile: "My first book will still be the story just now, but Aoki-san, your idea of ​​'there is no real murderer' is really reversed. I think Probably no one would have thought that there was no murderer. I like your idea.

But if you think about it, you will know that if you want to write this story well, you need a lot of energy, especially the scene. How can you design a scene that can be faked many times? There are no obvious problems. This is not easy to design. It takes a lot of time. "

After saying his new name, Kahori looked at Aoki Song curiously and asked: "Aoki-san, may I take the liberty to ask, how did you come up with this idea?"

"I was in charge of a case some time ago. I can't tell you the details of the case. But the most puzzling thing about that case is that before death, the deceased left a bloody note pointing to the murderer. After someone discovered it, he wrote it in the letter written by the deceased. After basically filling in a few entries, it turned into identifying another person.

Another person happened to arrive there shortly after and saw that he was written in blood. In a panic, he quickly added a few more strokes on it to change it to another meaning. "Qingmusong said with a smile.

"I see, this is really art that comes from life and is higher than life." Niina Kahoori looked at Aoki-san with a pair of beautiful eyes, "But no matter how cunning they are, they still can't escape Aoki-san."

"You're honored." Aoki Song said with a smile, neither too modest nor too complacent.

The two talked for a while, and then heard the emcee speaking on the stage with a microphone, and the wedding ceremony was about to officially begin.

Niina Kahori looked at Aoki-san and said with a smile: "It's really nice to chat with Aoki-san."

"I just want to say that it was a pleasure chatting with you, Xin Ming-san." Aoki Song said: "The engagement ceremony has officially begun, let's go over!"

"it is good!"

The two walked towards the rostrum, then Aoki Song went to the side of Nonaka Hisei and the others, and Niina Kahori went to the side of the man's relatives.

As soon as Aoki Song walked over, Nonaka Shouei looked at him with a smile on his face and said: "A Song, I just saw you and Shintaro's cousin having a very happy conversation. Do you really know each other?"

"We just talked about mystery novels." After finishing speaking, Qingmusong said somewhat speechlessly: "You think I am like you. After seeing each other, you immediately chase after me. You are totally greedy for other people's bodies."

"Hey, hey, I'm not that hungry, okay?" Nonaka Shouying said dissatisfied.

Seeing this, Kobayashi Shigero quickly squeezed in between the two people and separated them. On this issue, Aoki Song and Nonaka Hisei had completely different views.

Shouei Nonaka advocates getting together first and then seeing if they are compatible with each other.Aokisong advocates getting to know each other first, and then getting together after they are suitable.

"Okay, the ceremony has already begun, don't talk anymore." Kobayashi Shigero said.

Hearing this, the two of them did not say anything more and both looked towards the rostrum.

The engagement ceremony was not as grand as the wedding, but the sweetness of Shintaro Nishida and Chiharu Hayakawa's love for each other made everyone present smile and wish them well.

After Shintaro Nishida and Chiharu Hayakawa exchanged engagement rings, it was considered a ceremony, and then their parents, relatives and friends sent their blessings.

Then there was a buffet-style banquet. Aoki Song took some food and the three of them, Kobayashi Shigero, sat in the corner and chatted.

"Shintaro called me the day before yesterday. I thought he was going to get married. I thought he would overtake the car and become the first one among us to get married. But I didn't expect that he would still be slower than me." Shigero Kobayashi said with a smile. .

Aoki Song swallowed the food in his mouth, took a sip of juice, and then said: "My first reaction was whether I heard it wrong. It was not an engagement but a marriage. I didn't expect it to be an engagement. When I asked about this, Shintaro still said Somewhat aggrieved."

Nonaka Shouying shook the red wine glass in his hand, "Who made him fool around before? If it weren't for you, Asatsu, I don't know whether Miss Hayakawa would date him."

Hisei Nonaka couldn't inherit the family business because he was the second son, and Shintaro Nishida didn't like dentists since he was a child, so both of them hated their family during their second year of middle school, and they were ruined for a time.

Later, Aoki Song said something - if you don't like the family, then work hard. When you acquire your family's business and industry, you will be their immediate boss, and everyone will act based on your face. When the time comes, Doing whatever you want and showing off is just the most idiotic behavior.

This sounds very nonsense, but the teenagers in the second grade of middle school can listen to it and work hard for it - although now that they have grown up, they all know how difficult it is.

But thanks to Aoki Song's bowl of poisonous chicken soup, at least the two of them had no flaws in their diplomas and no bad habits.

Speaking of this, Shouei Nonaka had a clever thought, "Maybe it is for this reason that Shintaro wants to repay his kindness, but cannot commit himself to her, so he wants to introduce his cousin to you."

"You are thinking too much!" Qingmu Song said speechlessly after hearing this: "The relationship between us does not need to be like this. Besides, what is the use of him working all alone on this kind of thing?" Emotions are a matter of both parties. All you have to do is call.

Hearing this, Chikako Horie also smiled and said: "I also think Shouying, you are thinking too much." After saying that, she turned her attention to Aoki Song, "A Song, are you? In other words, after so many years, besides me, I have I’ve never seen you chatting with a woman alone for so long and so happily.”

Aoki Song rolled his eyes when he heard this, "What you said makes me seem to have phobia of women. I used to just want to focus on studying and karate, and I didn't plan to fall in love. Since I didn't have this plan, then don't let me It gives people misunderstandings and gives people unrealistic hopes.”

"Have you thought about it now?" Shigeru Kobayashi asked.

"It's just that I'm not rejecting him, I'm just trying to make contact." Aokisong said.

"Tsk..." Shouying Nonaka said with a smile: "To put it bluntly, you have a good impression of me!"

Aoki Song was not embarrassed at all, "She is a beautiful woman, and she has nothing to do with me. I think even a man would have a good impression of her."

As long as I am not ashamed, no one else can make me ashamed!

Sure enough, Nonaka Shouying had nothing to say at this moment and only gave Aoki Song a thumbs up.

Kobayashi Shigero touched his chin and said: "In other words, you have met at the right time now. As for whether you are the right person..."

"Let nature take its course!" Aoki Song said, but his eyes subconsciously looked to the other side, where Niina Kahori was.

I don't know if it was a coincidence or something, but Shinname Kahori also happened to raise her head and look towards him at this time. The two looked at each other for a moment, and then looked away from each other in tacit understanding.

He did have a crush on Niina Kahori, but only a little bit. As for love at first sight, Aoki Song never believed it, especially with Hisei Nonaka standing by as an example.

Falling in love at first sight rarely ends in comedy, because initially you only fancy the other person's skin, but if you want to get married and have children together, it depends on whether each other's temperaments are compatible and whether they have a family.

What can I say, just like Kobayashi Shigero said, when he didn't resist finding a girlfriend, the new name Kahori appeared.

She is beautiful, has long flowing hair, has a good family background, speaks well, and can talk to him easily and have common topics.

Shinname Kahori's own conditions satisfy many people's fantasies about their dream wives.

It's normal for Aoki Song to have a good impression of her. If he doesn't like her, then I'm afraid Aoki Song will have to wonder if there is something wrong with his gender orientation.

As for the rest, just let nature take its course!

He has a crush on Niina Kahori, but maybe she doesn't have any feelings for him anymore.

Qingmu Song has always been self-aware, and does not think that he is the chosen one who will be loved by everyone and bloom as soon as possible.

It didn't take long for people to leave one after another. Aoki Song was also about to say goodbye to Nishida Shintaro, but he didn't expect to be caught by him. "Osomatsu, do me a favor."

"What's the big deal? You tell me first." Qingmu Song didn't say whether he agreed or not.

Shintaro Nishida looked at Shinname Kahori beside him and said, "My cousin is also going home. I am worried about her going back alone. I would like to ask you to help send her off."

"Cousin, this is too much trouble for Aoki-san." Niina Kahori heard this and said quickly: "I'm such an old man, I don't need anyone else to give it to me."

Shintaro Nishida smiled when he heard this and said: "It's only when you grow up that I worry about you going back alone. You have been studying in a girls' school before and were well protected." After saying that, Shintaro Nishida looked at Aoki Song, "Omatsu, May I?"

Aoki Song glanced at the two of them, then said with a smile: "Okay, I'm fine today anyway."

"Then let's just say it, I can rest assured that you can do things." Shintaro Nishida said with a smile.

Just as someone came over to say goodbye to Shintaro Nishida, Shintaro Nishida quickly walked away to talk to others.

In an instant, only Aoki Matsu and Shinna Kahori were left.

Although the new name Xiangbaoli was a little embarrassed, he still said calmly and generously: "Aoki-san, are you really not going to trouble you? If you have something to do, I can go home by myself. Don't listen to what my cousin says. I am always like this. Now that I’m a grown man, there’s no need to worry about such small things as going home alone.”

"No trouble. Besides, I have already promised Shintaro, so naturally I will keep my promise. Shinna-san, do you want to go back now, or wait a while?" Aoki Song asked.

"Let's go now. The family doctor will come to check on my father today. I want to go back early and listen to what the doctor has to say." Xiang Baoli said.

"Okay!" Aoki Song had no objection. The two walked out of the banquet hall and walked towards the parking lot.

After getting in the car, Aoki Song asked: "Xin Ming-san, where does your family live?"

"Sekiguchi Town [-]-chome [-]th District." Niina Kahori said.

"Okay!" Qingmusong started the car and drove towards the destination.

Like Mikka Town, Sekiguchi Town is also in Bunkyo Ward, so it’s not far away and we reached our destination in a short drive.

Judging from the appearance, it is a very typical Western-style villa, and Aoki Song is not surprised by this. After all, "Detective Zuofen" is so popular, and the new name Rentaro naturally earns a lot of money.

"We're here!" Qingmusong parked the car in front of the villa.

Shinname Kahori did not leave immediately, but turned to look at Aoki Song and said with a smile: "Thank you very much, Aoki-san." After a pause, he said: "I have benefited a lot from talking to you today. Will there be another chance to chat in the future?”

Hearing this, Aoki Song took out a business card from his pocket, turned it to the back, wrote his home phone number on it, and then handed it to Niina Kaho, "This is my honor, you can call me at any time, unless you meet Cases, I usually have more free time at night.”

Niina Kahori took the business card with both hands, her eyes overflowing with "Thank you!" and then carefully put the business card away.

Seeing this, Aoki Song looked at her and asked with a smile: "Won't you give me your contact information?"

Girls are bold enough to ask for their contact information, so you have to take the initiative, right?

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the car seemed to become a little different.

Hearing this, Niina Kahori's cheeks suddenly felt a little hot. He quickly took out one of his business cards and handed it to Aoki Song. Then he smiled and changed the topic, "By the way, Aoki-san, I'd like to take the liberty to ask, are you here?" Did you participate in the karate national competition five years ago?”

Aoki Song was stunned when he heard this, then thought for a moment and said: "Five years ago, I should have been in my senior year of high school. I did participate in it when I was a senior in high school, and I won the championship in that session."

Shinname Kahori's eyes lit up when he heard this, "I'm telling you why I keep looking at you, Aoki-san, and you feel familiar. I went to the karate national competition that year, and I still remember your handsome kick that KOed your opponent in the end, Aoki-san. But The audience screamed in unison."

"Excellent." Aoki Song replied subconsciously.

By the time he came to his senses, Niina Kahori had already opened the car door, got out of the car, and bowed slightly to Aoki Song, "Then I'll take my leave."

"Goodbye." Qingmusong said quickly.

After watching Shina Kahori enter the villa, Aoki Song looked at the business card in his hand and smiled. This was a good start, wasn't it?

Putting away the business card Niina Kahori gave him, Aoki Song didn't know if it was an illusion. Why did he feel that this business card had a faint scent of roses, but when he smelled it carefully, there was nothing there.

Shaking his head, Qingmusong started the car and left.
