"If there are no problems, I will leave first. After all, being called to the police station for questioning because of the death of an avid reader Fan has a great impact on the reputation of a novelist." Ye Ziyang brought With a slightly embarrassed smile, the other party responded immediately.

"I'm really sorry to bother you today. If you have any other questions, we will still ask you about the situation. Please keep the phone open, thank you." The tall and thin police officer stood up, made a false introduction towards the door, and then Take the other party to the elevator door.

"Thank you very much...Takagi...officer." Ye Ziyang recalled the certificates presented by the other party when they met for the first time, and successfully remembered the other party's name.

"Ah, this is just my job. Thank you for your help this time, Mr. Jintian." Gao Mu smiled and sent Ye Ziyang into the elevator. "Then, I'll send it here." "Thank you very much."

"Ah...a popular novelist...that's what he looks like..." After watching Ye Ziyang close the elevator door, Takagi stood still and recalled the polite attitude he felt when he met him just now, In an instant, the favorability value rose rapidly. "What would it be like if I became a popular novelist..." Takagi muttered to himself while falling into his own intoxicated fantasy.

"Officer Takagi, officer Takagi?" A tender voice shattered his daydream, "Ah? Oh, it's Conan, why are you here today?" Takagi lowered his head and saw The little boy with glasses, known as the 'moving god of death', stood beside his legs, looking at him with a subtle look, he was a little embarrassed, he squatted down and asked with a laugh.

"Didn't Uncle Maori catch a robber last time? He's here to make a statement today. Sister Xiaolan just happened to be out on something, so I came with uncle. Officer Takagi, you've been thinking while standing by the elevator. What is it?" The elementary school student surnamed Edogawa and named Conan asked with a smile, he was a little curious about the man wearing glasses and looking out of place with the police station.

"Oh, that...that's just because I was called over for questioning because I had something to do with the deceased. In fact, the two of them have no direct contact." Takagi replied with a smile, "I heard that he was a very famous novelist named Katsutoshi Kaneda. .”

"Katsutoshi Kaneda? Is that the Katsutoshi Kaneda who won the second prize for popular mystery novels recently? Wow!" Hearing Takagi recall Kaneda's name, Conan's eyes widened, and he was quite surprised. Although No.1 is the well-deserved teacher Masahiro Arakawa, Katsutoshi Kaneda, who was only a few votes away from catching up, is also a novelist he admires very much, although the proportion of romance and reasoning in his novels The ratio is almost the same.

Thinking of this, he suddenly became interested in the case the other party was involved in. "Then, can I know what happened to the case that Mr. Jin Tian was involved in?"

So a few days later, when Ye Ziyang went to answer the doorbell, he lowered his head and saw a child wearing glasses and smiling innocently in front of him, so it was not surprising.Of course, he was really speechless when he saw Conan appearing.

What he was afraid of, really made him feel helpless.

"Hello, kid, what's the matter?" Ye Ziyang squatted down and looked at the little boy wearing glasses, showing a surprised expression.

"You are Big Brother Kaneda, right? My uncle is Mori Kogoro, the famous detective. This time there are some doubts about Ms. Ogiwara Mia's death. Uncle asked me to ask you." Conan Looking up at Ye Ziyang with a smile, he said seriously, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with running to him to inquire about things as a little bean.

"...Ogiwara Miya?" Ye Ziyang was stunned when he heard the name, and then realized that this was the woman the original owner had killed by hand. Of course, he died using a method he once wrote in the novel.

"Oh, are you talking about the Ms. Ogihara who was said to be my fan last time?" Ye Ziyang remembered and squatted down to look at Conan with a very natural attitude. "Then what do you want to ask, little detective?"

"I heard that Ms. Ogiwara's death this time is almost exactly the same as a scene in your last novel, Brother Jintian. Do you think this may be Ms. Ogihara herself or the prisoner conveying some message?" Conan's lens There was a flash of light, and the eyes hidden behind the lenses were extremely sharp, staring at Ye Ziyang like a cheetah staring at its prey, refusing to let go of his micro-expressions.

"Didn't it mean that Ms. Ogiwara committed suicide? Why did the prisoner appear again?" Ye Ziyang tilted his head, and was the first to pay attention to the prisoner Conan was talking about.

"Say, Uncle Kogoro said that this case has not yet reached a conclusion, so we have to think in two ways. Then, brother Jin Tian, ​​what do you think?" Conan laughed, then scratched his head to pretend to be shy, "Because I heard that brother Jintian is also a mystery novelist, so I want to ask brother what he thinks."

"Me... If the layout is based on my novel, it should be that Ms. Ogiwara really likes my work, so even in the last second of her life, she wants to die with her favorite scene, or It’s because the prisoner hopes to drag me into this case.” Ye Ziyang spread his hands and said helplessly: “Of course, according to the assumption that there is a prisoner, either he hates me to the bone, or he hopes to use me to To disturb the sight of the police." Ye Ziyang said, standing up straight again, "Of course, no matter what kind of situation is involved, I was definitely implicated innocently when I was discussing the plot concept of the novel with the original editor in full view. Woolen cloth."

"That's right, thank you big brother for your answer." Conan nodded as he said, as if he had obtained some strong evidence or an answer from Ye Ziyang's answer, and ran towards the elevator while nodding.

"..." Ye Ziyang watched the children jumping away, and closed the door.

"...Ogiwara...Mia...I really don't know if it's good or bad for me to have this kind of news at this moment..."

After that, he didn't get any news from the police or the little boy wearing glasses. In short, the case that the original body committed in a hurry was put aside in such a crooked way until he encountered an accident again.

"Mr. Jintian, this time I took the liberty to visit because of a proposal from the publishing house." Yuan Yashi walked into Ye Ziyang's living room with his briefcase. "Generally speaking, I have already received information from the publisher. This time, I hope to confirm with the original editor the time and place of the signing event." Ye Ziyang nodded, raised his head from the contract, and took off his glasses.

"Okay, the meaning of the publishing house is that after a while, it happened to be the day when the renovation of the Mihua Central Building was completed, and they also reserved one of the floors as a place to put their books. The day when the renovation of the building is completed will be the day of your autograph signing." Yuan Yashi took out his notebook from his briefcase and began to discuss with Ye Ziyang.

"...Mihua Central Building... Well, it happened to be a public holiday that day, and the passenger flow should be quite considerable. According to your preliminary estimates, how many signatures might I need to sign?" Ye Ziyang has always been embracing such activities. After all, to be honest, he is not the original owner, he has his mission, although this mission has not cleared his mind yet.

"If you count the traffic of the day and your influence, teacher... Maybe the signed books of the day will not be less than [-]." Yuan Yashi wiped the sweat from his forehead. They have discussed this number before, although the editorial department There was a lot of debate about the final number. I am afraid that Katsutoshi Kaneda will be overworked because of this signing, which will not be conducive to his future development.

"...Editor Yuan, you and I have worked together for such a long time. Although we can't be said to be close friends, we can still be considered to know each other well. Who does this number... mean?" Ye Ziyang heard Yuan Yashi's hesitant words. Staring straight into the other person's eyes, he was covered in cold sweat.

"Uh..." Yuan Yashi looked at the other party's sharp eyes because they were not covered by the glasses, swallowed, and was almost out of breath under the pressure of the other party's momentum. "...This... is mainly the meaning of the publisher... I hope Teacher Jintian can give readers more benefits within his ability." Yuan Masashi lowered his head as he spoke, rather afraid to look directly at Kemin Jintian mean.

"...Oh, that's right..." The voice on the other side gradually became softer, and if it wasn't for the fact that the room was too quiet, Yuan Yashi couldn't even hear the end of the sound clearly.Then, that person's voice suddenly appeared in my ears, "So, Yashi, have you...have you ever fought for me?"

The sound that suddenly rang in the ears was accompanied by a slight wind, which made the ears a little cold, but it was more of a sudden chill, like unknown bugs crawling up from under the feet, densely packed Spread all over the skin of the dog.Yuan Yashi trembled, and lowered his slightly lowered head even lower.

Ye Ziyang looked at the attitude of the other party and knew that this number was probably not only the unilateral intention of the publisher, but also their editorial office. Well, after all, no one knows whether he will have the next glorious moment to win an award.

The author has something to say: I. . .Looks like I'm going to write a gentleman again--
