Mystery: The Star Key

~: Volume 2 Summary and Leave of Absence

This summary was written in Chapter 99. Although it is not finished yet, I can probably see the end of this volume. So let's start writing the summary of this volume first.

The writing of the second volume started on May 18th, and it has been six months since it was fully booked.

It was only when I wrote this that I realized that it had already been half a year. Before I started the book, I never thought that this volume would be written so much, and it would take such a long time.

In addition, I also experienced a series of things such as being hit by follow-up orders and not wanting to write, addicted to running tours, traveling, new jobs, preparing for exams, etc. In the end, it was really gratifying to be able to come to an end roughly as expected.

In this volume, I have made many new friends, but there are still many old friends.

Thank you everyone for sticking around for half a year and accompanying this volume to the end (bow).

Backlund's story already had a rough outline at the beginning of the creation of "The Key to the Star" fan.

Because this is the main stage of the Lord of Mysteries, the land of hope, and the land of Klein's dreams. in various senses.

So, as early as when I started writing this book, I had already made plans for "Becklund".

In this volume, the plot is planned to take revenge on Wen Xiuli as an open line, but in fact it uses Klein’s relatives and friends as a dark line, supplemented by the decryption of the Victorian case that fascinates me the most.

I must let Igna meet everyone in Backlund.

Because I want to see the world guarded by Klein through Igna's perspective, and I want to let Klein know through Igna's words that everyone is working hard and full of hope.

Driven by such a goal, I tried my best to let Igna face everyone who might appear in Backlund, face Forsi, face Xio, face Based on Susie, Audrey, Will, the old man Ian, Viscount Glaint, Melissa, Benson, and even wrote about Dunn, Daly, Fry... and the future brother-in-law of Xiao Zhou Worked **** the position.

The process is very joyful, and I am also very happy to write.

Then, since "London" is written, shouldn't it be written about the confusing cases that happened in the foggy London? So I also started writing, integrating the story of Sherlock's "Pink Research" and Sherlock's untold chapters into the mysterious worldview.

I am very happy to write, although everyone does not like to read it.

Finally, the Backlund chapter gathers the intentions expressed in all the stories through a "big event", leading to the theme "Even if it is dark night, remember that you always hold the key to hope in your hand."

Well, this is my interpretation of "The Key to the Star".

The original meaning of "Star Key" in the original work should be the key to open the starry sky.

But in some way, I think, the stars represent hope and light in the dark

The "Key of the Star" can be extended to those who discover hope, those who protect hope, and further extended to be the guardian and guardian of "hope".

And this is exactly what Mr. "Gate" has been doing. This is why I have a soft spot for Abraham, the Gate Path, and this Pathway Sequence 1 Star Key.

—Hope, and guarding hope, is the most shining light of human beings in the long river of history.

"Guardians and Keepers of Hope" is a difficult subject to deliver, though.

Although there is a general concept, it is not easy to write well.

If you want to write well, you must make some sacrifices, otherwise you will not be able to reflect the night. If you want to write well, the events you write must also be grand, otherwise you will not be able to reflect the importance of "hope".

This is a great test of a writer's ability.

Although I have been writing a book for a long time, it is the first time to express such a theme. Although I have a rough design idea for a long time, I still feel a little bald when I write it.

When I first got to the chapter on the eve of the climax, I really didn't know how to handle it.

On the one hand, I hope to reflect the theme through Igna's performance, but on the other hand, I feel that Igna's approach cannot express the theme.

Later, I consulted many friends, asked them for help, listened to their opinions, and gradually found the backbone.

——Whether or not the theme can be expressed, when Igna encounters this matter, he should act in this way.

Although readers all hope that the protagonist is a hero, they all hope that the protagonist can be heroic, courageous, and "kill relatives with righteousness".

I probably hope so too.

However, Igna is just an ordinary person.

Although his overall performance is relatively rational, and his emotions are flat because of his meticulous thinking, he is still an ordinary person. When the dearest person may be in danger because of himself, he will panic, hesitate, contradict, and be at a loss.

The long-term sense of responsibility will allow him to analyze from his own point of view, and will not shirk responsibility, but because of this, he will dig into the horns and criticize himself. He is also sober enough to know that doing good is right, even if it costs him. But he also knows that he can accept the harm to himself, but if it is a relative or friend, he cannot accept it.

So he will push others away, he will find a way to protect others, and let the punishment fall on himself (basically the original words of Yang Zhi, Yang Zhi is an angel).

That's not going to be a favorite for readers. Readers like to watch heroes and madmen, but they don't like to watch an ordinary person. (Original words by Chris)

But that's what Igna will do.

After thinking about it for a long time, I finally chose the choice Igna would make in this situation.

Because this is his story.

This story is also written from beginning to end, a story of an ordinary person guarding hope.

I won't comment on the outcome of the story. Because it was not finished when I wrote this summary, no one knows what the result is, but according to the bleak follow-up, it should be quite miserable. (If you feel okay, please be sure to praise me!)

However, as a writer of Sequence 9, it is still difficult to keep up with the Sequence 0 squid.

The plan for this volume is—the plan is to meet some familiar old friends, introduce some new friends, and formally enter the main line and express the theme of this book.

Written here is considered complete.

Just like the conclusion of the first volume, "every attempt is to get better, and a little progress is considered a success. Of course, everyone is happy if each attempt can achieve the expected effect. It doesn't matter if the attempt fails. We You can sum up the experience and lessons and come back next time. You can only keep moving forward if you keep trying.”

take it easy.

The above is the final testimonials.

The following is an academic summary

-

However, although.

In fact, there is no academic summary in this volume, because I am really busy in the later stage, and I have to squeeze out time every Monday.

Therefore, there is basically no design in terms of plot design. Basically, it is to complete the set goal step by step according to the predetermined rhythm and the main line outline in the mind.

Thank you old friends for tolerating me, even if it is a week, I will never leave. thank you very much!

Therefore, if this volume insists on any academic summary, it will be the following aspects.

■■■

First, when you start a book, you must think about the "theme" you want to write.

Squid said this when sharing. (I also only paid attention to the "theme" of the story after the squid said it)

Determining the theme before starting each work can set the tone of the whole story, and when the plot development has multiple possibilities and is not under control, the plot development can be brought back on track to ensure the emotional and emotional integrity of the story sex.

The theme of the book "The Key to the Star" is the guardian and guardian of "hope" from beginning to end.

So the tone was set from the very beginning, this volume was the same in Backlund, and it was the same in other places and other plots later on.

(Of course, the darkest time has passed, and what will be described next is the light in the dark night. Don’t be afraid of the knife. This time I gave myself to the knife _(:з)∠)_)

Determining the theme of the article not only helped me anchor the overall emotion in this novel, but also gave me great help in the creation of other novels. Praise the squid! Thanks for sharing squid!

Second, the intersection with the original characters. This is something you need to pay attention to as a fan.

Most people still like to watch and interact with the original characters when they read fanfic, and the original characters are somewhat unpopular. Therefore, this book has been loved by so many people today, and it still borrows the wind from the original book. When I write other originals in the future, I must do more research. Create some likable characters.

In fact, I personally like Jennings Wenzer quite a bit, but the writing is still a little less in the later stage. His character as "Watson" doesn't quite stand up either, nor does Joshua as "Lestrade". This feels a little pity. You can’t do this when you write other novels in the future.

Third, the balance between the reader's taste and original intention.

Until today, some readers left messages, and I realized why the follow-up of the paragraphs that solved the case was particularly poor. The main reason is that most of the fans of Lord of the Mysteries are not so interested in solving crime stories. Most of them still like to watch the fights in the extraordinary world and the disputes in the extraordinary world.

Unfortunately, this is at odds with the main question I wanted to answer when I wrote this volume.

When I was planning to write Backlund, I wanted to expand the world beyond the world Klein saw.

The Backlund I want to write is to discover:

What is the life of ordinary people like under the confrontation of the Extraordinary who is undercurrent? Will it be affected? In the eyes of ordinary people, what do those cases involving the extraordinary look like? In such a prevalent world, what do the police think about case after case?

Even in Backlund, Beyonders are a minority after all. Although they monopolize the upper echelons, there are still so many people living in this world. Backlund is not just a Beyonder's Backlund. Even Extraordinary, their lives are intertwined with ordinary people most of the time.

Isn't the struggle of Extraordinary people also to protect the majority of ordinary people?

Because the world view built by the squid is very complete, the clues of these superficial worlds are also hidden under the original description. Through some clues, we can see the world in the eyes of most people-a world that Sherlock Moriarty, the "troubleshooter", cannot see. (Although Xiaoyi also got into trouble, she is still far inferior to Klein cough)

One of the purposes of this book mentioned before is to use Igna's eyes to take Klein to see the world that he has not had time to touch.

This is my original intention.

It's a pity that readers don't like it very much. (Maybe there is also a reason for my poor writing (if so, don’t tell me) So during that period of time, the subscription fell off a cliff, and my enthusiasm for writing also fell off a cliff.

During that time, I was really skeptical about life. In addition, real life is relatively busy, so it will be updated every week for a period of time. Thanks again to my old friends for their perseverance (bow).

However, it is my original intention to restore the idea of ​​"extraordinary cases in the eyes of ordinary people" in the world view through articles, and to write Sherlock Holmes-style Backlund.

So even if the subscription is poor and the market is not popular, I still insist on writing what I want to write.

Probably because I always insist on this kind of strange place, I will rush like this (wry smile).

If you want to be popular, don't learn from me.

Only the lucky ones can balance being sought after by the market and sticking to the original aspiration. Most people probably can't have it both ways. Therefore, when you open the book, please be mentally prepared.

In addition, thanks again to all the friends who tolerated my waywardness. It is because of your existence that I have the strength to persevere ~lightnovelpub.net~ The name of this volume is "Astrologer".

There are two layers of intent.

The first layer, the sequence name and the main line digest the plot.

The second floor is the beginning of the theme "Key of the Star".

The name of the next volume is also easy to guess.

Sequence 6, "Recorder", please look forward to it. (I hope someone looks forward to it!)

P.S I made a lot of new friends writing this volume. Praise Yang Zhi, Praise A Meng, Praise A Gui, I was able to move again in the later stage, it was my colleagues who saved me.

I also thank Yuji, book friend Gao Shaohan, book friend Foolish, and the default name book friend whose serial number I can’t remember, thank you for supporting me when I was on a weekly basis.

Knowing that someone other than me likes this book and remembering it is really a happy thing. (jumping)

P.P.S, this time, the break between the rolls is not as good as the squid. Because I haven't specifically determined how to write it.

It is tentatively scheduled to rest for five days, and the slowest will come back on the seventh day to maintain investment. If it is fast, it will be notified in the group. (Though in theory it won't be faster).

The expectation for the third volume is that I hope that the original intention of the third volume is somewhat in line with the market. Although the money belongs to Xiao Zhou and the children, I will be very happy to see the data increase (laughs)

P.S. The last event in this volume comes from the "Great Stink" in the midsummer of London in 1898. If you are interested, you can go and find out. Although it has been modified by me, it has nothing in common with the original.

Before the p.s, there was a period of time because I was busy and didn't report the number. Now I would like to report to everyone that Xiao Zhou’s road donation fund has 1235.48 yuan! congratulations!
