Chapter 506: Chapter 482: Distributing razor blades_1
It’s somewhat ironic.
This year, with the help of the system, Lin Yuan’s body became incredibly healthy.
However, his Poirot, the endearing detective with the proud little mustache and gray brain cells, is now growing old.
When Poirot began to make waves in the detective world…
When Poirot gradually became a myth in the hearts of mystery readers…
When Poirot used his wisdom to punish evil criminals time and time again…
Who could have imagined!
What such a proud man would look like in his old age?
Who could have imagined!
Poirot in his last case of his life, embracing his own…
Death?
So, Lin Yuan hesitated.
He even wanted to petulantly change the ending and let Poirot officially retire, giving him a happy old age!

He didn’t know if it was because his voice had healed or because of some other influence.
Lin Yuan felt that he was becoming increasingly sentimental.
He suddenly sighed lightly, as though a sigh would bring him relief.
His eyes flickered.
But finally, Lin Yuan gave up this capricious idea.
He didn’t know what sort of struggle Agatha Christie had when she wrote ‘Curtain’.
But in a certain sense, rather than letting the readers imagine the figure of the aging Poirot, perhaps death is the release.
People always deliberately evade some facts…
For example, people will die.
Indeed, anyone who is alive will die.
Even if Poirot is a ‘god’ in the eyes of some mystery fans, it is the same.
Although Poirot’s death was not from natural aging or illness.
“Huh.”
He let out a long breath.
Lin Yuan no longer hesitated and began to type the keyboard at a fast speed:[Doesn’t everyone experience the same sort of dreamlike state when they re-experience feelings from the past, or revisit the same emotions from the past?]
Poirot invited Hastings back to the manor where they first collaborated on a case.
The manor has now been converted into a luxury hotel.
What surprised Hastings was that Poirot had become old and weak.
He could only sit in a wheelchair, and he had dismissed his many-year-old servant George…
Typing sounds.
It stopped at eleven thirty-two.
Lin Yuan looked at the document, and finally typed the three words “The End”.
As he was about to close his laptop, Lin Yuan suddenly paused.
After Poirot, it should be a story about Holmes…
These two characters should have no connection in the background because the authors are not the same person at all.
But in Blue Star, these two works should both be written by Chu Kuang.
Therefore, why not let the two brightest characters in detective history have some connection?
This connection can be very shallow.
But the two should intersect at some moment.
This can also be regarded as an indirect new book teaser.
The readers will understand.
After Poirot, there is another man who will achieve outstanding success in the same field.
“Let’s just do this…”
Lin Yuan started typing on the keyboard, adding a few strokes.
It was at Poirot’s funeral.
After Hastings presented flowers and bowed, as he was preparing to leave, he noticed a mysterious man wearing a bowler hat, nodding his head in respect at Poirot’s tombstone.
…
The second day.
Lin Yuan directly sent the completed ‘Hercule Poirot Series’ to Jin Mu.
“You finished it?”
Jin Mu knew that Lin Yuan was planning to finish the ‘Hercule Poirot Series’ recently.
But when he received so many manuscripts, he was somewhat shocked. “How many words have you written these days?”
“I don’t know.”
“Your typing speed is really…”
Jin Mu sighed for a few moments, then said, “I’ve sent the novel over to Silver Blue Books for publishing. Now that the entire book is done, we should make a Poirot compilation.”
Lin Yuan had no objections.
That night.
Lin Yuan suddenly received a phone call.
The call came from Cao Dezhi, the Chief Editor of the Mystery Department at Silver Blue Books.
Normally, Cao Dezhi would contact Jin Mu, but this time, perhaps because it was urgent, he directly reached out to Chu Kuang.
Indeed, it was pretty urgent.
The voice on the other end of the phone couldn’t help but sound excited: “Mr. Chu Kuang, you can’t do this!”
For once, Lin Yuan comforted him: “Calm down.”
Cao Dezhi seemed to realize he was being overly emotional.
He swallowed, lowered his voice slightly: “I don’t mind you concluding the ‘Hercule Poirot Series’, even if you don’t write detective novels anymore, but why did you kill off Poirot, and in such a way …”
Lin Yuan pondered and said: “This is Poirot’s life.”
Cao Dezhi opened his mouth, but eventually, he said nothing.
He stayed silent for a long time before asking, “So, the mysterious figure who appeared at the end of your story …”
“Is the protagonist of my next book.”
“So you’re planning to continue writing mysteries?”
“Why wouldn’t I?”
“I understand.”
In the end, Cao Dezhi didn’t manage to persuade him.
Actually, Cao Dezhi was also aware that he probably wouldn’t be able to change Chu Kuang’s mind.
When had this person’s ideas ever been influenced by an editor?
Him making this call today was less out of his identity as an editor, and more as a reader.
Because he not only supervised the ‘Hercule Poirot Series’, but he himself was also a hardcore Poirot fan!
As a hardcore Poirot fan, it was hard for him to accept Poirot’s death, especially in such manner.
Although he understood that the ‘Hercule Poirot Series’ had already been long enough.
Poirot’s death didn’t mean a cliffhanger or unfinished story, but rather made Poirot’s character image clearer and easier for readers to remember.
“This old rascal, still handing out blades to readers even after it’s over …”
Cao Dezhi grumbled in his mind, but he didn’t dare to say it out loud, even though Chu Kuang’s fans often call him that.
That night.
Silver Blue Books officially announced this shocking news:
“The classic detective masterpiece, ‘Hercule Poirot Series’ by Mr. Chu Kuang will officially conclude in three days!”
Boom!
As soon as the news came out, the mystery field was instantly shook!
Even the entire novel community was shaken up!
This is the treatment that the ‘Hercule Poirot Series’ deserves!
There were too many who adored this series!
Within the whole mystery field, this novel was undeniably a classic masterpiece!
And now, such a classic will be concluding.
For a while, everyone was discussing it!
However, the most affected by this news were the readers of the Poirot series …
Swipe, swipe, swipe!
The comment section on the official announcement was immediately flooded with countless comments from readers, the vast majority of whom expressed a similar sentiment:
Reluctant to let go!
Many people had gotten used to following the Poirot series, it was the spiritual sustenance for many mystery fans.
But now, Chu Kuang was about to cut off their supply.
However, although the readers were regretful, they accepted the fact that this novel was about to come to an end.
It’s not the first time that old rascal Chu Kuang has done this!
No matter how popular the novel, if the old rascal wanted to conclude it, he wouldn’t be merciful.
Following the old rascal’s novels, you should be prepared for this!
As long as the ending is satisfying for everyone, even if regret is there, they would have to accept it.
With this regret, everyone began to anticipate the official release of the novel in three days.
Then.
Three days had passed …
The conclusion of the Poirot series was officially released!
