Chapter 626: Big move

Morning.

 After breakfast, Liu Tao sat in his study feeling refreshed.

The sun shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows, making people warm. It also brings the scenery of the alley before your eyes, which makes people very comfortable. They especially want to make a pot of tea and read a book.

 Liu Tao took out the manuscript of "Five Little Pigs".

but.

 Before reading, he took out his mobile phone and browsed the messages before muting it.

 In the group.

Mr. Chengzi was originally indignant at Liu Tao’s behavior of picking peaches.

but.

 After the Chengzi express delivered by Liu Tao arrived, Mr. Chengzi forgave him.

 As for the other group—

This is a group of mystery novel authors, editors or screenwriters he knows.

 People in the group are discussing last night’s Mingzheng.

This issue of Mingzhen is quite popular.

Especially the words Su An said at the end that enhanced the meaning of the program, the short video of Time was highly recommended. Not to mention the song "The Sky is Gray". The fitting plot and tear-jerking song directly pushed the topic into a hot search.

but-

 A layman can watch the excitement, while an expert can watch the door.

 The authors and screenwriters in the group are discussing the plot.

 Obvious.

In this episode of the program, Jiang Yang did not make the case very complicated, nor was it very brain-burning. There was no surprising twist when the murderer was revealed, but the reviews of the show were extremely good.

The authors in the group are doing research, and they have concluded that they pay attention to social issues such as domestic violence, and then use Jiang Yang’s ability to develop themes in other novels, so that it becomes an excellent mystery text.

 Author A: “We can learn from this.”

after all.

 After so many years of writing mystery novels, they are now writing mystery. It is really difficult to write crime techniques and reasoning that are eye-catching.

Author B: "Yes, we can really learn from it. Jiang Yang's "The Long Night Is Hard to See" also has relatively weak reasoning, but because it focuses on social issues, it gave readers a big shock when it was first published?"

 Author C: "Why do you feel that Jiang Yang created a genre without knowing it?"

When Liu Tao saw this, his heart moved, and he suddenly thought of a word Jiang Yang said.

 He typed five words in the group and sent them: "Socialist reasoning."

 Everyone in the group said: "Yes, yes, this word is quite appropriate."

Liu Tao did not expect that Jiang Yang would unknowingly create another genre.

Of course, Jiang Yang is not the first to write this kind of mystery novel that focuses on social issues.

According to the novels Liu Tao read, some mystery authors in the island country also wrote this.

 It just didn’t work out and there were no representatives.

　　　No one has put forward such a statement as socialist reasoning based on their works.

This is just like the sect in martial arts novels. You have to have unique skills and become famous before you can establish a sect.

anyway.

Liu Tao still prefers authentic mystery novels that put logic first and focus on reasoning and solving puzzles.

This kind of brain-burning feeling of challenging reasoning is just like solving the last big question of mathematics in the college entrance examination. After solving it, you will feel like drinking a sip of ice Coke in the summer——

Huh?

Liu Tao looked at the wolfberries in the cup and felt that he had let Jiang Yang go astray.

 He opened the manuscript.

Then.

Jiang Yang gave him a surprise as soon as he came up -

 Finally no longer a legacy!

Poirot is going to investigate a case from sixteen years ago.

This case does not mean that the criminal took action again sixteen years later, but that the murderer, the heroine, had been caught. After trial, he was found guilty of murdering her husband, was imprisoned, and is already dead.

in other words-

Poirot wants to overturn the case sixteen years ago without new evidence!

 Liu Tao couldn't help but look forward to it.

Then.

He found that this book was easier to read than Jiang Yang's previous mystery novels, because Poirot interviewed one person in each chapter. He successively interviewed the lawyer, judge, police, etc. who handled the case, and then interviewed the five witnesses of the original case.

 One person in one chapter has a different identity, so there will be no confusion about identity.

Then.

 Because it was an investigation, these people all described the same case to Poirot. But because of the differences in relationships and emotions, the cases and stories told are also somewhat different.

but-

 Except for the heroine’s sister, the remaining four people all believed that the heroine was the murderer from different angles.

 Such repetition around a case should be boring.

but!

These differences make Liu Tao enjoy them, just like playing a game of finding fault. He looks for differences among them, and then tries to find the answer before Poirot reveals the truth——

even.

 When the five witnesses recorded the situation before and after the crime and presented it to the readers again, Liu Tao felt a sense of trembling when he knew what Jiang Yang was going to do!

His legs couldn't help but tremble.

This kind of shaking is not cold, but exciting.

He understood Jiang Yang’s intention. Jiang Yang wanted to use Poirot to compete with readers!

This competition is also different from previous mystery novels.

 In the past, mystery novels at least had crime scenes that the readers had to figure out.

But this time is different. This time Poirot, like the readers, has the testimony of only five people. In other words, the readers and detectives can only rely on the witnesses’ oral accounts of more than ten years ago to find out the real truth!

If this idea can be implemented truthfully -

 Liu Tao is shocked just thinking about it!

Thinking of this, Liu Tao geared up.

He threw away the later manuscripts and stopped reading them, deciding to speculate on the murderer based on the previous manuscripts.

To this end, he stood up, walked out of the study, and walked to the door of the B&B. Mrs. Liu was leading her staff to draw some cute patterns on the small blackboard behind the B&B's entrance, and then write some of today's fresh vegetables and recipes.

result-

Without saying anything, Liu Tao picked up the blackboard and ran away.

 “Hey, you!”

Mrs. Liu still has chalk in her hand.

 She looked at the small blackboard that suddenly disappeared in front of her, and looked at Liu Tao, speechless for a moment.

Employee: “Sister, can you bear this?”

Mrs. Liu thought about it and decided to forget it.

You worked overtime yesterday, so let Lao Liu be arrogant.

She put down the chalk, clapped her hands, and turned around to entertain the guests. When she finished her work and went to greet Liu Tao for lunch, she saw a dense reasoning process written on the small blackboard, while Liu Tao himself was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, with his hand in his hand. Holding the wolfberry quilt, pretending to be profound!

 Mrs. Liu: “What’s wrong with you?”

 Liu Tao raised his glass to the distance and said, "I would like to pay homage to Jiang Yang, his father-in-law. I hope he will live longer than Nanshan!"

This professor not only trained a great devil, but also directly gave birth to a masterpiece!

Depend on!

 Liu Tao was convinced.

He now agrees with a sentence on the Internet that if Jiang Yang is locked up in the zoo, he will definitely go and see it!

psychology!

It’s really Criminal Minds!

This book is completely a novel about how criminal psychology determines criminals!

 Liu Tao really didn’t expect it!

He just watched the variety show yesterday and read what Su An said when he "surrendered" that Jiang Yang was inspired by criminal psychology to plan this variety show. But he never expected that this book was handed to him yesterday. The book was also written by Jiang Yangshou on criminal psychology, and further proved the role of psychology in crime!

Obviously the answer was given yesterday, but Liu Tao didn't figure it out today!

Fortunately, he was still looking for differences in the stories from the different perspectives of the five witnesses, so as to deduce and solve the mystery!

However-

Jiang Yang's entire text itself, that is to say, the psychology of the five witnesses that led to the different narratives, is itself part of the reasoning!

  For example.

 In this book, five witnesses:

 A pair of neighbor brothers, a mistress, a tutor, and the hostess's sister.

 In their respective narratives.

The elder brother among the neighbor brothers hates the heroine; the younger brother loves the heroine; the mistress hates the heroine and is madly in love with the heroine's husband, who is the deceased; the heroine hurt her sister, so she dotes on her.

but-

Poirot keenly saw through the colored glasses of these people, and deduced from the behavior and psychology that the brother who hated the heroine actually liked the heroine, but he just couldn't get it, so he hated her; the brother who had a crush on the heroine actually had already moved on to another love between the lines. The mistress; and the mistress who is madly in love with the male protagonist, because of the extreme love, she kills the male protagonist because she cannot get it -

This is the whole truth!

real!

 Liu Tao was shocked when he saw the truth.

For the first time, he saw that something that cannot be quantified, psychology, was put on paper with the help of text, allowing psychology to become a reliable decryption tool for reasoning, and criminal psychology to be fully utilized!

　　It exploded!

Yesterday's variety show was just an appetizer. Today's book is Jiang Yang's feast after being inspired by his father-in-law's words. The old man is so awesome. He really wants to mail the old man a small mallet for knocking wooden fish. If you have nothing to do, knock more. Beat Jiang Yang!

and-

 After reading this book, I wouldn’t say that I understand it like solving some math problems, but I can’t do it. But the moment I think of the murderer, everything in the book can immediately come to mind.

 That’s right!

 This book is so smooth in the image and psychological shaping of the characters!

 It’s quite comfortable!

 So that when Liu Tao thinks about it now, he can smell the fragrance of jasmine flowers, feel the movement of cats quietly sneaking in, the turbulent sponge under the bright sun, and the bitter taste of beer that he drank up in one breath -

Liu Tao now wants to push this book to everyone who praised Su An's words yesterday, and tell them that the program is nothing, the real power is here!

  Naihe.

 Publishing a book does not happen overnight, so Liu Tao can only endure it for the time being.

He endured it and went to the group to say: "Jiang Yang's father-in-law Niu Pi! What an inspiration!"

Mrs. Orange:? ?

 Sister Chen: Who said yesterday that the program was boring?

 Liu Tao: Yesterday I was blind! But "Five Little Pigs" is the masterpiece inspired by the old man! I read it while kneeling!

 The bearded man asked Liu Tao to talk about it.

 Liu Tao asked Big Beard to buy the book and read it after it is published.

Mrs. Orange: Isn’t this just to whet my appetite? Did he write yesterday's case into a mystery novel?

 Liu Tao: Hey, yesterday’s issue of Mingzheng was just an appetizer!

Liu Tao: @Sister Chen, let the devil treat her husband better. Jiang Yang is a good son-in-law, and he really listens to what his father-in-law says!

Mr. Orange: “It’s over, crazy!

 Liu Tao ignored him.

 In fact, he still has something to ask Sister Chen, which is what kind of book "The Moon and Sixpence" is?

 This book has been mentioned in the novel.

 But Liu Tao checked all the information and still couldn't find it.

As for the notes given by Jiang Yang in the book, it is simply a sentence: "A novel based on the great painter Gauguin. This article does not have enough space, so I will not introduce it for the time being. In time, I will make another description -"

 Listen.

This is human talk, and you still dig holes like this!

   ＊＊＊

 A sneeze!

Father Li, who was eating in the school cafeteria, sneezed.

 He muttered: "Who is talking about me?"

"Come!"

 Lao Wang sat in front of him and gave him a chicken leg: "This is for you."

　　Father Li narrowed his eyes: "To show your courtesy for nothing is to be either an adulterer or a thief. Do you want me to play chess for you?"

Without waiting for Lao Wang to answer, Father Li shook his head: "No, let me play chess for you, so I won't spend so much money. Do you want me to play chess for you and not regret it?!"

Father Li asked Lao Wang to stop dreaming.

Playing chess with old and cunning people like Lao Wang, it is torture not to regret the move, because this grandson is good at psychological warfare. When you are about to make a move, he will knock the chess piece in his hand and say with a smile: "You are sure, no." Regret it; you are seeking death; if you make one more move, you will lose. Your son-in-law will play chess with me more when he comes..."

 Such words as this are false and true, true and false, and only regret can break them.

 Lao Wang: “Thank you.”

 Father Li: “What are you thanking me for?”

Lao Wang: "Thank you for speaking up. Your words not only taught your son-in-law a lesson, but also taught netizens a lesson."

Father Li doesn’t understand.

 Lao Wang asked him to watch a short video.

 Lao Wang’s daughter follows this variety show, and her students also watched the short videos.

They all knew that Lao Wang had a good relationship with Li’s father and were neighbors, so when the program mentioned this, they immediately knew that this professor of criminal psychology was Lao Wang, so they naturally shared it with Lao Wang.

 Lao Wang looked at it.

 Don’t mention it yet, it really does happen.

At that time, while playing chess, Jiang Yang let his hindsight torture lead him to lose several games, so he said something like this, which basically meant that criminal psychology is hindsight, so he was good at hindsight.

 Lao Wang was very proud of his victory, so of course he would not take his words to heart.

He didn’t expect that Li’s father was quite interesting and even taught Jiang Yang a lesson when he returned. This kid Jiang Yang can do it too. Not only did he listen, he turned around and put on a very popular variety show—

 Lao Wang felt quite good after reading what Su An said.

 Father Li is an interesting person.

 After Li’s father watched the short video, he said, “Ahem, you have to thank me.”

Father Li did say this.

but.

There is another but behind him, that is, criminal psychology, which is essentially psychology, is a stepchild in the legal profession -

fine.

Jiang Yang ignored it later.

This son-in-law is not bad.

He felt very relieved after hearing this from someone else.

 “This is a big deal—”

Father Li waved his hand modestly: "I didn't expect that I would put on a show just by saying such a kind word for you."

Father Li ate the chicken legs with peace of mind.

By the way—

 Father Li: “When we play chess in the afternoon, do we have to give me a knight and a cannon?”

"no!"

 Lao Wang shook his head: "If you have horses and cannons, if I still win, you will be so embarrassed."

   ＊＊＊

The scent of lipstick still lingers between Jiang Yang’s lips and teeth.

He walked quickly to the elevator, intending to go to the company. When he reached the elevator, the elevator was about to close. Jiang Yang hurriedly pressed the door door button. When the door opened, Jiang Yang saw two people in the elevator.

Jiang Yang knew one of the handsome young men.

 He is Sister Hong’s stepson. I met him last time in the elevator and the conference room of Koi Studio.

 At that time.

Jiang Yang remembered that when he was in the elevator, these two people were standing at the door of the elevator and blocking his way.

fine.

Jiang Yang is not a grudge-bearing person.

but-

This time it’s different.

After Jiang Yang came in this time, the handsome young man took his assistant and took a step back to the back corner. He wanted to smile and nod, but he was not used to it, so he just nodded to Jiang Yang with a twitch in his face.

"Hello."

Jiang Yang nodded to him and leaned against the corner of the elevator door.

 He actually prefers the corner where the handsome guy stands.

The handsome young man at the back hesitated to speak. After Jiang Yang turned around completely, he swallowed his words. He also encountered a problem, that is, what should he call Jiang Yang?

 Sister Hong and the Big Demon King are eldest and younger.

The big devil’s husband is naturally the eldest and the youngest.

 Sister Hong is his stepmother again.

 At the end of the day, he has to be called uncle, but Jiang Yang is younger than him—

Just when the handsome young man was struggling, Jiang Yang arrived.

 He got off the elevator and arrived at the company.
