Rebirth of the Flying Era

Chapter 84 Mystery Novels (20th update please subscribe)

At this time, Du Fei was reading the first story in the middle volume, "The Silver Horse."

I was reading with gusto, but suddenly I felt the light was dim.

He raised his head and saw Zhu Ting standing next to his desk with her arms folded and the backlight on.

Because she was looking from bottom to top, Zhu Ting was wearing a close-fitting red sweater, which made a certain part of her look extra majestic!

Du Fei chuckled: "Sister Zhu, what's the matter?"

Zhu Ting said with a serious face: "Tell me the truth, can you really understand what is written in the book by just walking around like this?"

Du Fei was stunned for a moment, a little baffled.

He didn't expect that Zhu Ting was still struggling with what he said casually yesterday, "not asking for a clear explanation".

"Uh... is there any problem?" Du Fei asked.

Zhu Ting said angrily: "This is a mystery novel! The plot is complex and full of mystery. You must connect all the links to see the interest in the story. What's the point of swallowing it up like you do?"

Du Fei heard the emotion in her tone, suddenly realized the problem, and asked: "Do you like mystery novels?"

Zhu Ting nodded naturally.

Du Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Do you think that reading a book like this blasphemes your favorite mystery novel?"

Zhu Ting said forcefully: "At least it is disrespectful to the author and the book!"

Du Fei suppressed his smile and stared at him with serious eyes.

Zhu Ting saw Du Fei's serious and serious expression for the first time. She felt a little guilty when he stared at her and involuntarily wanted to look away, but the pride and persistence in her heart did not allow her to back down.

"Comrade Zhu Ting!" Du Fei said calmly: "Since we are talking about mystery novels, can you tell me what a mystery novel is?"

Zhu Ting was stunned for a moment.

Although she has been exposed to mystery novels since she was in college and has read many works over the years, when asked what exactly a mystery novel is, she is really a little vague.

But no matter what, you can't show your timidity in front of Du Fei.

Zhu Ting frowned and said: "Mystery novels are novels about investigating and solving crimes, and finding out the murderer step by step through clues."

Du Fei smiled and turned on the show-off mode again. He stretched out his right index finger and gestured while saying: "Inference is the way of reasoning, but you haven't said the key thing. What are you doing through reasoning? It is to solve the mystery! The mystery. It’s the key element of mystery novels and the core of the whole story, do you understand?”

Zhu Ting looked confused. This scene was completely wrong!

Shouldn’t I be preaching in a righteous way myself? Why did this bastard turn against the guest again?

But...why do you think what he said makes sense!

Du Fei added: "Mystery novels are actually called detective novels in Japan. Europe and the United States are more accustomed to calling them detective novels because most of the protagonists are detectives, such as the most famous detective Sherlock Holmes and the detective Poirot created by Agatha Christie. Detective. When the novels arrived in Japan, they paid more attention to the logic of the puzzle-solving process, and through reasoning and progression, mystery novels evolved."

Zhu Ting was stunned for a moment after being told this.

When she was in school, she just liked reading such novels, but no one had ever told her about these theories.

Hearing Du Fei talk eloquently, I felt inexplicably superior.

Du Fei took a sip of tea and continued: "Both detective novels and mystery novels are just recreational reading for me. I read them for two purposes: first, to entertain my mood; second, to pass the time. Why should I work so hard to solve the mystery set by the author for the protagonist? Isn’t it good for me as a bystander to finally say ‘I see’ with a relaxed and happy mood?”

Zhu Ting swallowed.

She instinctively felt that what Du Fei said was a fallacy, but this fallacy was so fresh and refined!

"Forget it, I don't care about you anymore!" Zhu Ting angrily picked up Xiao Wu, turned around and returned to the small office.

She originally set up a team to investigate the crime, but in the end she ran away in despair. Zhu Ting thought a little discouraged: "Isn't the greatest pleasure in reading mystery novels is to follow the protagonist, find clues step by step, peel off the cocoons, solve the mystery, and find the murderer? ?”

Unknowingly, Zhu Ting used more force to play with the cat, which immediately aroused Xiao Wu's dissatisfaction.

"Meow~"

Zhu Ting came back to her senses, quickly said sorry, picked up Xiaowu again, and said to herself: "Xiaowu, you are so cute, why did you follow that little bastard? How about you come home with me from now on? Sister, give me a You grill the fish fillets and eat them.”

As he said this, he actually took out a small bag of grilled fish fillets from the drawer!

"Meow~"

Contempt flashed in Xiao Wu's eyes, as if to say: "Hmph, you ignorant human female, can you seduce me with just a little food?"

Du Fei didn't know yet that someone was plotting against his cat.

Nothing happened in the afternoon except for a call from the district health bureau asking me to come over and get some documents.

There was no need for Du Fei, so Section Chief Qian sent another young man named Wang to take a trip.

At around three o'clock, Du Fei was bored when he suddenly felt a strong mood swing.

Du Fei immediately synchronized his vision to Xiaowu's side.

At some point, Xiaowu ran out.

At this time, it was next to the construction site that it often went to. There were a lot of building materials and cement pipes piled inside.

In addition, there are three small figures, busy inside.

One of the boys wearing a green cotton-padded jacket was Widow Qin's son Banggan'er.

He was getting a match to light a fire, and next to him there was a dead chicken that he got from nowhere.

Xiao Wu almost died at Bang Bang'er's hands, and now it was his enemies who were extremely jealous when they met.

Du Fei's heart trembled, fearing that Xiao Wu would be impulsive and bite the stick to death again.

It was broad daylight and we were on the side of the road, so something had to happen.

He quickly hit his spirit and issued an order to let Xiao Wu come back.

At this moment, Du Fei could clearly feel Xiao Wu's resistance, but in the end he turned around and left unwillingly.

Du Fei breathed a sigh of relief and waited for more than ten minutes before Xiao Wu returned to the office...

At five o'clock in the afternoon, everyone was walking out. Xiaowu came out of the small office and could still smell the grilled fish fillet in his mouth.

After eating delicious food, my mood obviously improved.

Du Fei looked serious, glanced at Zhu Ting, and said coldly: "Did you feed it grilled fish fillets?"

Zhu Ting was stunned and felt guilty. Couldn't Xiao Wu eat grilled fish fillets? But after eating, I didn’t notice that it felt uncomfortable?

Du Fei's expression was solemn, as if he was serious.

Zhu Ting licked her lips and said, "Well, I just ate a little bit. Is he okay?"

Du Fei confidently stretched out his hand: "I want it too!"

"What~" Zhu Ting's pair of red and phoenix eyes almost stood up. What does it mean to have an inverted eyebrow and what does it mean to have a wide-open phoenix eye? It seems that she has risen to the occasion now.

Snap!

Zhu Ting fiercely pushed away Du Fei's extended hand and claws, and said angrily: "You stinking bandit!"

Section Chief Qian happened to see her from behind and said with a smile, "Why did you recruit her again?"

Du Fei said innocently: "Whoever recruited her asked her for a piece of grilled fish fillet. Why is she so impatient?"

"I, the old man, don't understand you young people." Section Chief Qian said lazily, "But please take it easy, Zhu Yatou is not ordinary, you kid, don't get involved."

"Okay!" Du Fei said with a smile: "I know you are good for me, but I really have no interest in Sister Zhu. Besides, she is several years older than me!"

Section Chief Qian called it a day and finally walked out of the office with Du Fei.

Du Fei left the street office and was thinking about what to eat for dinner while riding his bicycle.

"There is a lot of sausage and lunch meat left over from the sausages and lunch meat I bought at the grocery store yesterday. Why don't I go back and cut half a cabbage and stew it in a pot..."

Before I could finally think about it, I arrived at the courtyard first.

Du Fei crossed the threshold with his bicycle and saw the third uncle collecting fish scales at the door. The small crucian carp was only as big as a palm.

"Hey, the third uncle is going to eat fish tonight!" Du Fei said with a smile.

The third uncle said happily: "Xiao Li is pregnant. I will cook crucian carp soup at night to add some nutrition to her."

Du Fei said: "Your family is prosperous! You will have a big fat boy next year, and you will become a grandpa!"

When the third uncle heard about the ‘big fat boy’, his face smiled like a chrysanthemum.

At this moment, Zhu Zhu walked in from the outside carrying a net bag containing a lunch box...
