Rebirth As a Writer In Britain
Chapter 321 The
Although there are many excellent articles published in the "Wenfeng" magazine, the first moment readers get the magazine, they first turn to the page of Kevin's serialized articles, and then read it seriously.
Kevin had already announced the story of "The Hound of Baskervilles" in the magazine's forum before it was published. Since it was announced, those detective fans have been eager to see this story as soon as possible. So, when they got the "Wenfeng" magazine, they began to read it seriously.
First, the first chapter of the story, "Mr. Sherlock Holmes":
Mr. Sherlock Holmes, who, apart from frequent sleepless nights, was always a very late riser at breakfast, sat at the table. Standing on the rug in front of the hearth, I picked up the cane that the previous night's guest had forgotten. It was a fine and heavy walking-stick, with a knot at the top; a wood of this kind, native to Penang, called betel-nut wood. Immediately below the top was a broad silver hoop, about an inch across. "To the friends of James Mortimer, M.R.C.S.," was engraved on it, along with "1884". It was nothing more than a stately, sturdy, and practical walking stick of the old-fashioned kind used by private physicians.
"Ah, Watson, what do you think of it?"
Holmes was sitting there with his back to me, and I thought I hadn't noticed my handling of the cane.
"How do you know what I'm doing? I think you must have eyes in the back of your head."
"At least I have a well-polished silver-plated coffee pot before my eyes," he said.
"But tell me, Watson, what do you think of our guest's cane?
It is a pity that we did not meet him, and know nothing of the purpose of his visit, which makes this unexpected souvenir all the more important. After you have examined it carefully, describe this man to me. "
"I suppose," I said, following my companion's reasoning as best I could. "Dr. Mortimer was an accomplished, older medical man, and well respected, as can be seen from this memento of tribute sent to him by those who knew him."
"Very well," said Holmes, "very well."
"I also think that he was probably a doctor practicing in the country. He made most of his visits on foot."
"why?"
"Because this walking stick, although beautiful, has been so badly bumped that it is hard to imagine a doctor practicing medicine in the city would still hold it. The thick iron cap on the lower end has been worn out badly, So. Obviously he's walked a lot with it.
"Exactly," said Holmes.
"Also, the friends with the h engraved on it, according to my guess, probably refers to a hunter club. Because the first letter of the word hunter hunter is h, Watson suggested that the h might be an abbreviation of the name of some hunter club." . ; he may have performed some surgical treatment on members of this local hunter's order, for which they gave him this little present as a token of appreciation."
"You have come a long way, Watson," said Holmes, pushing back his chair. And lit a cigarette,
"I cannot help but say that in all your zealous account of my small achievements, you have become accustomed to underestimating your own abilities. You may not be able to shine by yourself, but you are a light-bearer. Some people No genius per se, but a considerable power to inspire genius. I confess, my dear fellow, that I am very grateful to you."
This is the first part of the first chapter of the story of "The Hound of the Baskervilles". A few hundred words have already shown the level of Sherlock Holmes's detective ability. The manifestation of this level is not only how many complicated cases are detected, but also the infection of friends around them, making them also become people with particularly strong logical reasoning ability.
Therefore, those detective fans are extremely excited at this time. Maybe after reading a series of detective novels written by Kevin. It can also gradually have a super reasoning ability like Watson in the novel, that would be awesome.
"My God, maybe all British detectives should read Kevin's Sherlock Holmes series of novels, I think they will gain a lot from it." Many readers sighed at this time.
So, with curiosity, they continued to look down. Until I read the content of the three chapters that Kevin serialized this time. Since there are only three simple chapters, they don't spend much time, and they will finish reading it soon.
Undoubtedly, the content of these three chapters is enough to see that the story of "The Hound of Baskervilles" is wonderful. Therefore, they all expressed their expectation for the next serialization.
"This is really a good story. I like it very much. I hope that Kevin will serialize a few more chapters in the next serial. Three chapters are too few, and it is not enjoyable at all."
"Dear Kevin, can you serialize a few more chapters? I also feel that three chapters are a bit short. I like this story very much. I hope you can write them more excitingly in the future."
"Kevin used a chapter or so to tell the bizarre "Legend of Baskerville", which made me feel that this is a mysterious and thrilling case. How will the final story end? I am so curious , Kevin, please, you must serialize a few more chapters next time."
"It's just amazing. This is another wonderful detective story. I'm so grateful to Kevin, who always gives me a different feeling in each story. Maybe this is the difference between a genius writer and an ordinary writer. Anyway, there are After Kevin's article appeared, I have rarely read other writers' works."
Since there is a dedicated "Wenfeng" forum, readers who have finished reading the serialized chapters at this time all ran to the forum and posted posts, expressing their expectations and suggestions for the next issue.
Under these readers' posts, the forum of "Wenfeng" magazine became lively all of a sudden. Especially after batch after batch of readers posted comments, the popularity index of the "Wenfeng" forum once again squeezed ahead of the British online forum.
It is absolutely unique that a literary forum can have such an online popularity index. Therefore, many experts and related people who pay attention to the dynamics of Internet popularity are also very surprised.
"What kind of magazine is "Wenfeng" magazine, and why does it have such charm." This is what they generally sighed at this time.
Yes, many people will also have such a curiosity, what kind of magazine is "Wenfeng" magazine? How wonderful is the Sherlock Holmes story written by Kevin? Why are so many people so obsessed with it? To be continued.
