Chapter 448

Summarized in one sentence:

When did you learn to write reasoning novels?!

At this moment, Ye Xuan, who saw the netizens' messages, also understood what happened at the Edogawa Rampo Prize award ceremony.

Seeing the devil called "Moriyama Moriyama Yanjin" openly mocking China, Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows.

A mere Yamato devil, dare to clamor with my China?!

It's really Zhu Zhu Bajie yawning, what a big tone!

He wants to let these devils who love beauty see what the ceiling of reasoning novels is!

At this time, Ye Xuan had recalled the last system reward—*Sherlock Holmes*!

The Bible in the hearts of countless reasoning fans!

A true peak work in the history of reasoning novels!

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan directly posted a new book preview on Weibo.

【Ye Xuan: Three days later, Saturday at 8 pm, I will see you with my new reasoning novel.】

As soon as the simple message came out, it was immediately pushed to the hot search list by a group of netizens.

Under the crisis of reasoning novels being completely sung down, Ye Xuan actually wants to publish a reasoning novel at this time?!

Any writer who dares to publish a reasoning novel at this moment will definitely be regarded as the savior of Chinese reasoning novels.

But precisely because at this critical moment, after being mocked by Island Country writers, everyone's expectations for reasoning novels have been raised to the extreme.

In other words, what China needs at this time is a reasoning masterpiece that can open up the world!

And can Ye Xuan, who has never dabbled in reasoning novels, really reach this height?

For a time, as Ye Xuan's new book preview was issued, the netizens' increasingly heated discussion followed.

Some netizens began to sweat for Ye Xuan.

Some netizens were looking forward to Ye Xuan.

Some netizens remained neutral, watching the subsequent development quietly.

And these voices on the Internet did not disturb Ye Xuan, he had already started writing his new book.

Reviewing the entire content of *Sherlock Holmes* in his brain, Ye Xuan did not intend to copy it all.

After all, the Sherlock Holmes series of stories took place in the late Victorian era and was once suspected of being a real person.

Since it was created by him, it is natural to follow the customs.

After turning his brain around, Ye Xuan changed Sherlock Holmes' residence "221B Baker Street" to "221 Toad Street".

For three consecutive days, Ye Xuan stayed behind closed doors and began to create the first case of *Sherlock Holmes*.

*A Study in Scarlet*!

Learn from the strengths of the foreigners to defeat the foreigners, let's use the foreigners' things to defeat the devils!

Just as Ye Xuan was busy copying the 100,000-word opening, the discussion about Ye Xuan's new book preview on the Internet was increasing.

"That Moriyama Moriyama Yanjin is too hateful, actually slandering our Chinese works like this! Looking forward to the dog author's new work!"

"If Ye Xuan releases a work at this time, isn't he effectively turning himself into everyone's target? If the work isn't excellent enough, wouldn't his reputation collapse?!"

"To the person above, I think you think too much, that is Ye Xuan, I believe in Ye Xuan more than I believe in myself…"

……

Just as various voices were mixed on the Internet, reasoning novelist Chen Chen, who had been publicly mocked, also opened his blog with a heavy heart and squatted on Ye Xuan's new book.

This release, either the reputation collapses, or it creates a new peak!

What result will Ye Xuan face?!

Just under the expectation of countless people, time soon reached 8 pm on Saturday three days later.

Ye Xuan's new book was updated on time.

Countless people surged into the blog of the pig-raising tycoon, and when they saw the book title *Sherlock Holmes*, everyone was stunned first.

Sherlock Holmes, is this the protagonist's name?!

Although they were full of doubts, everyone still couldn't wait to open the first chapter of the novel.

They saw the story of the whole book slowly unfolding from the perspective of a "Watson".

At that time, Watson, who had just returned from retirement, was looking for a house, and by mistake, he started renting with a person named Sherlock Holmes.

Meeting for the first time, Watson was guessed his previous military status by Sherlock Holmes.

As the plot continued to advance, everyone learned about the *Life Treasure Mirror* written by Sherlock Holmes through Watson's perspective.

【If a person is good at observation and proficient in deductive method, as long as he studies the things he comes into contact with deeply, he can see the big from the small and foresee the future…】

As soon as the long paragraph came out, many people felt a shock in their hearts.

Is the deductive method really that terrifying?!

As Sherlock Holmes said his identity was a consulting detective, many readers sat up straight on the spot.

Sure enough, the case they were looking forward to appeared immediately.

In a long-abandoned house, a corpse dressed neatly appeared.

Although there were bloodstains around the corpse, there was no injury on his body.

The police suspected that these bloodstains came from the victim, but there was no external injury on the victim.

Just after Sherlock Holmes searched the whole scene, he made a conclusion completely opposite to the police.

The deceased should have been poisoned, because the poison left a specific smell.

As the ring on the deceased fell, and the handwriting found on the wall, the police again concluded that this was the murderer's information left by the deceased.

However, Sherlock Holmes again corrected the police's speculation through the details of the victim's fingernails.

The words on the wall were not written by the deceased at all!

Seeing that the police hadn't even issued an arrest warrant, they were refuted by Sherlock Holmes again and again, and many readers were shocked and sighed.

"Want to know how big the psychological shadow area of these police is…"

"What a miserable policeman!"

"These policemen must be thinking, do we not have any face at all?!"

At this moment, the readers had already immersed themselves heart and soul into the plot of the book.

As the plot continued, Sherlock Holmes had already deduced a series of clues regarding the true culprit, using only clues such as the shape and size of the bloodstains at the crime scene and the direction and position of the deceased.

A tall man, with a flushed face, who had arrived in a carriage with the deceased...

Just when everyone was full of doubts and felt helpless about the bewildering case, Sherlock Holmes caught the true culprit in the blink of an eye.

When they saw the murderer brought to justice and that he had "walked right into the trap," countless readers were caught off guard and widened their eyes.

A series of questions appeared one after another in the readers' minds.

Is the murderer the carriage driver?!

How did the carriage driver kill the person?!

Why did the carriage driver kill the person?!

How did Sherlock Holmes know the murderer was the carriage driver?!

It was not until the arrested murderer began to recount his motive for the killing that everyone gradually learned that this was a murder case of revenge for love.

Once the murderer finished reviewing his motive and the process of the crime, everyone was even more amazed when they saw Sherlock Holmes's process of deduction.

"I held my breath the whole time I was reading..."

"My younger brother actually dared to disturb me just now, so I gave him a big slap across the face!"

"Can mystery novels be written like this too?!"

.. Copy.

From the evidence collection at the crime scene to solving the case and catching the killer, then to the criminal motive, and finally to Sherlock Holmes's deduction process, the series of plot points were interlocked, making the readers simply unable to stop!

By the time the story reached its end, the readers were in an uproar.
