A healing writer? No, it's a depressing writer!

Chapter 149 Don’t cry, I’m really not gone!
"Jiang Hai, look," said Yuan Shiyun, the propaganda director of the Student Union, who was in charge of organizing the scene, and walked up to Jiang Hai and whispered to him, "Someone is crying in the backstage."

Look in the direction Yuan Shiyun reminded.

The middle-aged uncle who had just received Jiang Hai’s signature looked as if his worldview had collapsed. He leaned against the supporting column of the mall and burst into tears.

"Jiang Hai, how could this be possible?"

"How could Jiang Hai be like this?"

Don't tell others that you are surprised.

Even Jiang Hai himself couldn't figure it out:
"I didn't do anything but sign an autograph for you. How can you still cry?"

Jiang Hai has one biggest advantage, which is that he never wastes time when doing things.

Just like the famous saying of five-star general MacArthur:

"If there are ten thousand people in this world who think this thing is wrong, and you are the only one who thinks it is right, then please don't doubt it—"

"These ten thousand people are all idiots!"

Adhering to the life philosophy of minding your own business and living two more years, Jiang Hai ignored the middle-aged man who was out of control, but shouted loudly to the long team in front of him:
"Next person!"

To be honest, not all the people who came to the reader signing event today are fans of Jiang Hai's books.

Among them, quite a number are college students who came to join in the fun and catch a glimpse of Jiang Hai's beauty.

College students are always like this.

Go wherever there is excitement!
After learning that Jiang Hai had a best-selling book with 500,000 copies, a student who wanted to be as successful as Jiang Hai came up to him and asked for his advice:

"Jiang Hai, I'm really poor now, extremely poor! I want to make money like you and become as rich as you!"

"Can you give me some tips on success?"

Facing the question from the male classmate in front of him, Jiang Hai smiled at him calmly:

"As a young person, it's normal to be poor now."

"Anyway, there will be many days when you will be broke in the future, so you just have to get used to it."

"Next person!"

There were also some female classmates with sad faces who wanted to ask Jiang Hai for advice:

"Everyone says that I am usually too depressed and serious, but I became like this after reading your book."

"They all say that girls who love to laugh will never have bad luck. Is that true?"

"If I want to change my luck in the future, should I smile more?"

After listening to the female classmate's doubts, Jiang Hai picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.
"Girls who love to laugh won't have bad luck? To be honest, in my opinion, this statement is actually a paradox."

"If a girl has bad luck all the time, I don't know how she can smile."

"Cry if you want to, don't force yourself to hold it back"

"Next person!"

I quickly signed the books in my hand. Jiang Hai signed his name very quickly. The main feature is a cool, coherent and unclear
When he looked up, he saw a thin boy wearing glasses, holding a copy of No Longer Human, walking towards him timidly:
"Um, Senior Jiang Hai, I want to ask you a question!"

"My dream is to write a book, but I don't know why I can't stick to it. Every time I want to write a book, I can't help but want to give up."

"Can you give me a reason to keep going?"

Facing the thin boy's question, Jiang Hai put down the pen in his hand and looked at him seriously:
"If the word 'give up' appears in your mind, you must firmly tell yourself——"

"You have nothing to begin with, where can you get something to give up?"

“If you really can’t stick with writing, then changing careers early may not be a bad idea.”

"Next person!"

The book signing event is in full swing.

Yuan Shiyun, who was responsible for organizing the order of the book signing event, keenly noticed that something was wrong with the readers' mood.

After getting Jiang Hai's personal signature, no one showed any joy on their faces.

Instead, each one is sadder than the other?
Instead, each one is more distressed than the other?
"Wow wow wow wow" As if she had listened to Jiang Hai's advice, the girl who just said 'Girls who love to laugh will definitely have good luck' was now wiping her face with a tissue. She was in tears and didn't want to hide her nature anymore. "I don't know why, but I just want to cry."

The boy who was just told by Jiang Hai: "It doesn't matter if you are young and poor, you will get used to it slowly in the future", now has countless grief and indignation on his face -

"Does it mean that I will always be poor?"

As for the middle-aged man who had been crying loudly in the escalator of the shopping mall early in the morning, he was even more explosive at this moment:
"My life is so miserable. Why is my life so miserable?"

"Oh my God, why are you torturing me like this?"

There was a lot of wailing at the book signing event.

On the other hand, Jiang Hai, who was in the center of the venue and the center of everyone's attention, was smiling happily at this moment:
"Look, my autograph is big enough and looks good!"

"What's wrong with my short arms? I'm still tall where I should be tall. What are you thinking about? I'm talking about my legs!"

On one side, everyone was crying.

On one side, everyone was having fun.

This scene also made Yuan Shiyun quite puzzled——

"No, what did Jiang Hai do?"

"The author is so happy and the reader is so distressed. Looking at the history of book signings."

“This should be quite rare, right?”

In fact, Jiang Hai is not a person with a sharp tongue. He just tells some readers about the bloody reality of this world in a seemingly frivolous way.

Don’t be fooled by the glamorous appearance of rich people. In fact, they are even more glorious in private.

Life is like a cup of tea, it will not be bitter forever.

But it will always be bitter for a while. When it is no longer bitter, it will naturally be thrown away.

Instead of worrying about the future meaninglessly, it is better to focus on the present, eat, drink and have fun.

This is also what Jiang Hai wants to write through this series of [tragedy and suffering]——

I want to express the truth to everyone!

"Next person!"

To be honest, after signing about a hundred books, Jiang Hai felt a little numb.

"Could it be that I haven't done any handicrafts for too long, causing my kirin arms to degenerate?"

Just when Jiang Hai wanted to take a break.

A Japanese student wearing a student cap and a dark blue tunic (similar to a Zhongshan suit) walked up to Jiang Hai in a very solemn manner:
"Hello, Jiang Haijun!"

At first, Jiang Hai didn't pay attention, but when he heard the accent, he looked up and found out -

The person standing in front of me turned out to be a Japanese student?
This young Japanese man stood straight with a serious look on his face but his eyes showed an excitement that could not be concealed.

In his arms he held a copy of No Longer Human.

His black shoulder bag was stuffed full to the brim, and no one knew what was inside.

"Japanese?"

As for Japanese readers, Jiang Hai definitely treated everyone equally and did not look down on him at all just because the person standing in front of him was a foreigner.

Jiang Hai smiled at him calmly:

"Signature, right?"

"Come, let's sign your book and then take a break."

Just as Jiang Hai was about to take "No Longer Human" from the Japanese student and give him an autograph as a souvenir, like he did with other students.

Unexpectedly, the Japanese youth waved his hands again and again:

"No, no, no, Jiang Haisang, I want an autograph, but not in the book."

If you don’t sign in the book, then where should you sign?

Looking at the young Japanese man in front of him, Jiang Hai was quite confused.

It was as if he could see through the confusion in Jiang Hai's eyes.

The Japanese young man suddenly took a step back and bowed to Jiang Hai very solemnly.

Then he spoke to Jiang Hai in a very stiff Chinese accent:
"Jiang Haijun, please don't be offended!"

At the book signing event.

Under the shocked gaze of everyone at the scene.

The young Japanese man slowly took out a white urn from the black bag he was carrying.
"Jiang Haijun, I want to sign your signature here."

To be honest, when this young Japanese student took out an urn from his bag.

Everyone at the scene——

I was totally shocked!

Book signings are common, and people come from far away across the ocean to attend book signings, holding an urn.

This is unprecedented!

At this moment, not only Jiang Hai, but everyone at the scene was in a state of shock:
"WTF?!?!"

I also know that my behavior is somewhat inappropriate.

The Japanese student first apologized to Jiang Hai and the frightened readers around him, and then slowly told everyone the reason why he did such an outrageous behavior:

"Jiang Haijun, this is what happened."

It turns out that since "No Longer Human" became popular in Japan, among the Japanese youth group——

It set off an unparalleled wave of suicides!

The kind of "sorrowful culture" displayed in the book "No Longer Human" is perfectly consistent with the "depressed trend" that has been accumulated in Japanese culture for thousands of years!

It was precisely because of the in-depth reading of "No Longer Human" written by Jiang Hai that Yamashita Tetsuya, the childhood friend of Kosaka Masao, resolutely embarked on the path of committing suicide by disembowelment!
In the culture of Japan,

Suicide does not mean the end, but a new beginning!
When Tetsuya Yamashita was dying, he told Masao Kosaka in his last words that he wanted to see with his own eyes what kind of genius could write such a magnificent classic like "No Longer Human"!

This is also the reason why Masao Kosaka came to the scene with Tetsuya Yamashita's urn.

"Jiang Haijun, I want you to sign your name on the urn."

"After all, you were the writer he admired most during his lifetime, bar none."

"After you leave your signature, I will take this jar of ashes and bury Brother Yamashita in peace."

What Masao Kosaka said was sincere and heartfelt.

These words also moved many people present.

After hearing what Masao Kosaka said, Jiang Hai just slowly uttered a sentence:

"What is the relationship between Yamagami Tetsuya and this Yamashita Tetsuya?"

"How do you know that Yamashita has a brother named Yamagami?" As if quite surprised, Kosaka Masao looked at Jiang Hai with wide eyes, "Yamagami Tetsuya is Yamashita's brother, they are brothers"

The younger brother of the No. 1 male gunner in Asia?
Hearing this name, Jiang Hai's face froze, and then he stopped hesitating:

"Stop talking, I'll sign it."
