After the first chapter was updated, readers were confused. In just one chapter, several characters appeared, and each character had a description of their psychological activities.
What readers can know is that these people seem to have one destination, which is the Indian Island.
After carefully reading the title of this book, most old readers have already associated it with the nursery rhyme Zhang Zhong posted on Weiyu.
It seems that the nursery rhyme is related to this book. Zhang Zhong did not just distribute the book without saying a word, but also gave everyone some hints, but the hints were too vague and readers would not think about it at all.
Who would have thought that this author would publish a second book before he finished updating his first book?
If someone had told them before that Zhang was releasing a new book, they would probably have called that person crazy.
But now this has become a fait accompli, Zhang Zhong's new book has been released, and it seems to be related to the previous nursery rhyme.
Not long after the break, Zhang Zhong posted the second chapter, which contained nursery rhymes.
Readers who have not yet figured out what this book is about begin to study this nursery rhyme.
This nursery rhyme tells the story of ten little Indian boys who died one after another, and each died in a different way.
The first person choked to death.
At the end of Chapter 4, Anthony, the handsome young man, choked on his drink and fell to the ground. Although it was not said that he was dead, readers all guessed it, just like what the nursery rhyme said.
The guy choked to death.
After reading the previous four chapters, readers probably know what is going on. It turns out that these people were deceived using letters, and the purpose of calling them here is to judge them, because each of them has a murder case.
, although most of them strongly deny it and feel that they are not guilty.
Now readers have three questions in their minds.
First, did these ten people all die in the end, just like what the nursery rhyme said, and each one was confirmed, or did some of them escape in the end?
Second, are all of these people really guilty, or are some of them really innocent?
Third, who is the murderer?
This is not a book with a supernatural theme. According to common sense, there must be one murderer, or more than one.
The murderer may be hiding somewhere in this big house, or he may be one of these ten people.
If it is the last one, then who is the murderer among these ten people?
First of all, Anthony must be eliminated first, because he died first, and the dead person cannot be the murderer.
If we follow this logic, if the murderer is among these ten people, then the last one to die must be the murderer.
So the question now is, who will be the last to die.
"A little Indian boy came back alone and hung himself from a rafter. There was no one left."
According to the nursery rhyme, the last person hanged himself.
It seems that the man who hanged himself is the murderer.
The book "Ten Little Indian Boys" has only been released for two days, with a total of five chapters updated. Only one person has died for the time being, but the discussion in the comment area about who is the murderer has already exploded.
[The murderer must be among these ten people.]
[Not necessarily, there may be other people in this house.]
[If there were other people, he would be found no matter how hard he looked. He couldn't have been hiding and still kill ten people.]
[Isn’t it just one person who died? Why do you think ten people will die? 】
【Everything written in the nursery rhyme will die.】
[The nursery rhyme may not come true.]
[Just wait, it must be the last person to hang himself. After killing everyone, he hangs himself again.]
【Is this reasoning too simple?】
【But the truth is often that simple.】
Some people think that the murderers were the housekeeper and his wife, because they came in advance and had sufficient time to prepare for the crime.
Some people also thought it was the doctor. After all, it seemed that Anthony was poisoned to death, and among everyone here, it seemed that only this doctor had the ability to poison.
Some people think that the veteran is very suspicious, after all, he behaves like a cold-blooded executioner.
Of course, some other people, such as the female teacher and the religious woman, although they don't seem to be aggressive, cannot be excluded.
Early in the morning on the third day after the release of the new book, Zhang Zhong sent Pengpeng to school and then returned home. He laughed and looked at the various speculations of his book friends, which he found quite interesting.
It's a pity that there is no Werewolf game in this world, otherwise, readers might think of this game first.
The process of finding a murderer is very similar to finding a werewolf.
It is said that the birth of the killing game was influenced by this book. Zhang Zhong is not sure whether it is specific.
With a hint of joking, Zhang Zhong posted the sixth chapter.
The maid is dead.
Another victim, and yet another person excluded as the murderer.
The maid's death was exactly as described in the nursery rhyme.
I fell asleep and died, only eight out of nine were left.
…
Today is Friday. Zhang Zhong told Teacher Xu that Pengpeng would not go to class tonight.
Dad Zhang Xingjun's small shop also closed early, and the family of four dressed up and headed to the city center.
It has been more than two months since I came back from the hospital. Zhang Zhong's body has basically fully recovered and he has received a lot of royalties. It is time for the family to have a big meal to celebrate.
This restaurant was recommended by my dad. It is said that the Huaiyang cuisine here is very authentic, but it is expensive.
Zhang Zhong told his father not to worry about the cost, as long as it tastes good.
Sitting in the box, her mother Hu Huifang looked at the decorations inside the box and curled her lips, "I just spent the money I made."
"How can eating it into the stomach be considered a waste of money?" Zhang Zhong said with a smile, "I just take this opportunity to tell you what I am doing, otherwise you have to worry."
"Are you willing to say it?" Zhang Xingjun raised his eyebrows.
Zhang Chong said with a smile, "It's not that I don't want to say it, I just feel that the time has not come yet, and it was not very stable before. I was afraid that if I told you something would happen, I would disappoint you. Now that the situation is stable, of course I have to explain it to you."
Hu Huifang and Zhang Xingjun looked at Zhang Zhong without saying a word, waiting for him to continue.
"Do you know "Agitation Literature"?"
"I've heard of it," Zhang Xingjun said.
"How could I not know this? I am a middle school teacher. Who among the students in the school does not have a few copies of "Agitation Literature"?" Hu Huifang is a teacher, so she naturally needs to know more about it.
Zhang nodded and said, "Well, I wrote something and published it in "Agitation Literature" and earned some royalties."
Zhang Xingjun didn't understand this, so he didn't speak. Hu Huifang said doubtfully, "I have a rough idea of the manuscript fee for "Agitation Literature". It can't be tens of thousands a month."
"It's impossible to have tens of thousands, but the website is also charging fees. Last month's royalties were all online."
When it comes to things on the Internet, Hu Huifang doesn’t know much about it.
“Can I earn so much by charging online?”
"Don't worry about this yet." Zhang Xingjun suddenly said, "Son, why did you suddenly become a writer? I'm so different from you."
