Reading other people’s diaries without permission is definitely unethical.
But...the owner of the diary is dead?
So...
Jin Yunran is thinking, maybe tell her sister?
But, what if my sister disagrees?
Holding the diary in front of her, Jin Yunran didn't know why, she just wanted to read it.
Jin Yunran held the diary tightly and couldn't help but start to question herself: What does she hope to see from the diary?
For example...did you mention her? My brother-in-law is in the diary,
How do you evaluate your sister-in-law?
Jin Yunran took a deep breath, and his inner thoughts began to intertwine.
Finally...
"Just read one article, just read one article!"
People are always very good at making excuses for themselves. When there is a suitable excuse, the inner restraint on oneself will often fall apart.
Jin Yunran carefully closed the door and locked it.
Then, she sat down and opened the diary to a random page!
Then,
Take a look.
"Today is a day when I feel particularly good.
Yun Lan tried a new dish for me - fish head with chopped pepper. She said,
I saw it in a previous food documentary,
So I wanted to give it a try.
She knows that I particularly like spicy food, especially the Sichuan and Chongqing hot pot that is full of spicy oil. Whether it is Sichuan or Gan cuisine, I can say that I don’t like spicy food.
My readers don’t know this kind of thing. When I am interviewed, I usually say that I like Western food. In fact, I am not interested in steak, foie gras, and French escargot.”
Jin Yunran immediately recalled that spicy food often appeared in his brother-in-law's circle of friends no matter where he was in the world, especially in Thailand.
He will specially try the spicy curry there.
Jin Yunran continues reading.
"Yunlan's craftsmanship is actually not that ideal... I can only write in my diary. Although she is keen on cooking, the kitchen is obviously not her area of expertise, so I'll let Alan do the cooking. p>
This afternoon, as usual, after reading three chapters of other writers' works, I started writing my own novel.
Readers still have mixed reviews of the new book. Those who don't like it always think that the story of dragons, magic, and swordsmen is too cliche and has no freshness at all. But I just think that the story of dragons and magic is still interesting.
There is a lot of room for exploration.
Yunlan asked me today if there are so many Western names and races in the book, does it not fit in with the reading habits of domestic readers? I don’t think so. "Harry Potter" and "Lord of the Rings" are also Western works, why can they win
Do Chinese people favor it? In the final analysis, it is because the story is not well-written. A good story should be attractive to everyone.
I wrote for seven hours today, and the protagonist finally came from the small town of Gri to the territory of the Dragon Clan. Foreshadowing,
All buried.
So, it’s almost done,
You have to go to bed before twelve o'clock."
Jin Yunran looked at it...
His expression suddenly changed.
"Gerry... town?"
The novel my brother-in-law was writing before his death,
It's called "The City of Eternal Silence". This is his first story about dragons and magic written entirely through an imaginary Western worldview.
When "The City of Eternal Silence" was serialized online, it was hailed as the most ambitious work of Blue Whale of the Abyss. My brother-in-law passed away midway, causing the book to abort after writing only 500,000 words. The protagonist had not yet left his hometown.
Small town.
Later, when all the manuscripts saved by the brother-in-law on the computer were released, the protagonist had just set off from the small town and was about to go to the dragon's lair to seize the huge treasure they stored.
Jin Yunran naturally read this.
Could it be that my brother-in-law still has hidden manuscripts?
She immediately looked at the date of this diary.
This look...
Jin Yunran was completely stunned.
The date part of the diary reads——
"September 24, 2021".
Impossible!!!!
Because my brother-in-law passed away on the night of September 19th!
His diary was written until September 18th!
Did your brother-in-law write the date wrong?
Then, she turned to the latest date in her diary.
"It will turn to light rain on October 23, 2021"
This is exactly...
Yesterday!
And the weather is exactly the same! It turns from cloudy to light rain!
Jin Yunran subconsciously covered his mouth!
She suddenly thought of something and quickly turned back the diary.
Scroll all the way to...
September 19th!
The day my brother-in-law passed away!
"It will become cloudy on September 19, 2021
Today I encountered a Cavan state that I rarely encounter.
Although Yunlan has been comforting me, I still can't figure out how to write further.
Let me tell you why...
I always feel like there is a pair of eyes staring at me lately.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but no matter whether I’m at home or outside, it always seems like someone is staring at me.
Of course, this is impossible.
There are no wizards or undead in reality.
I may have really encountered a creative block.
Many people say that the plot is still dragging on. The protagonist has not left the novice village for a long time, how will the plot develop?
But for me, reasonableness is the most important thing. The protagonist’s enemy is a giant dragon!
I didn't write a word today. My previous ideas were still not enough foreshadowing. I wanted to give the protagonist a more reasonable way to defeat the dragon.
But today I can’t even read books by other authors.”
Jin Yunran opened his eyes wide.
The diary is indeed my brother-in-law's handwriting.
But who wrote this diary?
She could recognize her sister's handwriting, but her sister had absolutely no ability to imitate her handwriting so vividly.
"It's almost twelve o'clock.
Although I couldn't write it, I revised the plot outline again.
It took a while, but it allowed the protagonist to reasonably delay the deadline for leaving the town.
Go to bed after writing this diary.
But...
The feeling that someone is watching me is stronger than before.
I actually turned around several times to make sure there was no one behind me.
Is it really because of writing fantasy novels that I can’t tell the difference between reality and fantasy?
How strange.
However, there is one thing that concerns me.
I should have closed the study door just now, right?
Why did the study door open when I turned around just now?
The wind can't blow the door.
Did I remember it wrong? Or was it driven by Alan or Yun Yi?
Forget it, it's too late.
Let’s talk about it tomorrow.”
Jin Yunran almost lost control of the diary.
She subconsciously looked back at the study door that she had locked!
Brother-in-law, he died in this room!
Door...
Locked up properly.
But Jin Yunran only felt goosebumps all over his body!
She quickly opened the door and rushed out of the room!
My sister now lives in another room on the second floor. After her brother-in-law died, she moved out of the bedroom on the third floor and lived with Yun Yi.
When I came to the door, I saw my sister sitting on the bed, looking at her mobile phone.
"Sister?"
As soon as Jin Yunran said these two words, she realized that she didn't bring her diary.
"What's wrong? Yunran?"
"Sister, wait a minute...wait a minute!"
Jin Yunran rushed back to the study, picked up the diary, turned it to the latest diary section, and was about to run out...
She suddenly felt something was wrong.
Jin Yunran lowered his head and looked at the latest diary entry.
"It will be sunny on October 24, 2021
Today I actually slept until two o'clock in the afternoon and didn't get up.
Alas... I can't help it, who can let me fall asleep at three o'clock in the morning?
The plot has made great progress, and the most difficult dragon-slaying level has been written.
I think it’s okay to celebrate, so I asked Alan to cook more dishes in the evening.”
Jin Yunran's fingers began to tremble. When she looked at it just now, the latest diary was clearly October 23rd!
"Today's dinner can be said to be very sumptuous, especially the lion's head dish. Yun Lan has always wanted to try this famous Huaiyang dish, but it was never as delicious as Alan's.
But Yun Yi still only likes to eat meat and doesn’t like vegetables. Yun Lan gave him broccoli, but he still looked so reluctant. Yun Yi, you can’t be like this. If you are a picky eater, your nutrition will be imbalanced.
Then, he suddenly asked me a question: 'Does heaven really exist?'
I immediately understood that he must have been reading "The City of Eternal Silence" recently. In the book, after good people die, they will be welcomed by angels to heaven to be with God.
I thought about it and said... Of course, of course heaven exists. Santa Claus, angels and heaven, Snow White and Cinderella, let Yun Yi first believe that they exist."
Jin Yunran felt that the pores all over his body were beginning to stand up.
She suddenly remembered what her sister said during the meal just now: "I have no sense of reality at all, as if all this is just a nightmare. I seem to feel that Qi Shu is still in this villa, still living with me and Yun Yi
