I just want to copy books quietly

The corner of his mouth grinned lightly, a little happy.

After all, although he felt that it was impossible for Zhu Xian to fail to sign the contract, he was still not sure enough before it was implemented.

At this time, a stone in my heart finally fell to the ground.

He read the website short carefully, followed the prompts and added the LL number of the editor's "Zhongyi" communication software.

"LL" is the abbreviation of "chat chat". It is an instant messaging software, which is equivalent to the QQ of Azure Star.

After sending the addition request, Du Caige was thinking about how to start the opening speech, and soon the other party's cute anime girl's head flashed.

After clicking on it, the editor Zhong Yi sent a short message: "Hemingway? The author of Zhu Xian?"

"It's me." Du Caige replied quickly, and then changed his LL nickname to "Hemingway".

"It's a good book. Did you write it yourself?"

"Yes."

"Has it been published on other websites before?"

"No."

"Do you own the complete copyright of Zhu Xian?"

"some."

After a few questions, the other party sent a letter saying: "Fill in the contract according to the format, print it after filling it out, and sign it according to the template. Then print two copies of the front and back of the ID card and mail them together. The address is the addressee. Fill in Bruce Lee."

Du Caige is still three points fresh about this process.

If it were Lao Pujie, he probably would have grown impatient.

After he accepted the document, he filled it out as required, found a copy of the USB flash drive, took his ID card, and prepared to print and mail it.

All the way without incident, the contract was printed and sent smoothly.

On the way back, Du Caige bought some newspapers and a weekly movie magazine.After he became a director, he almost never read physical newspapers, which is actually quite fresh.

Back home, Du Caige saw Du Yuqi at the dining table, eating bread and drinking milk sleepily, as if he was still awake.

"What are you doing?" Just after she said a few words, Du Yuqi quickly covered her mouth and waved her hands.

Then he put down the bread, took out his mobile phone, and typed quickly: "It didn't count just now!"

"Okay, okay, it didn't count just now." Du Caige couldn't help laughing.

"Don't laugh!!!!!!!!!" Du Yuqi viciously pressed the keyboard of the phone and typed out more than a dozen exclamation marks, as if venting.

Du Caige deliberately said with a sullen face: "I have received professional training. No matter how funny it is, I will never laugh unless I can't help it."

"Puchi!" Du Yuqi was amused, the little girl's smile was so stunning, to use a vulgar description: like a flower blooming.

After a while, Du Yuqi rubbed his stomach and continued typing: "It's so early in the morning, why did you go?"

"Something." Du Caige put Movie Weekly on Du Yuqi's left hand, then looked down at the newspaper he just bought.

After a while, when he looked up, Du Yuqi had already finished his breakfast and was concentrating on reading Movie Weekly.

Du Caige smiled and continued to read the newspaper with his head down.

All day long, Du Yuqi was doing something in the room, maybe he was doing his homework, but Du Caige didn't worry about it anyway.

At lunch, Du Caige wanted to take Du Yuqi out for dinner, but Du Yuqi refused to go.So he went to have a simple meal by himself and packed a bag for Du Yuqi.

In the evening, Du Yuqi ran out to play before dinner, and returned before 9 o'clock as usual.

calm day.

The next few days were uneventful.

Du Caige didn't worry about Zhu Xian's grades, didn't read book reviews, recommendation votes, etc. He believed that this book would not be buried anyway.

On January 1th, when Du Caige uploaded an updated chapter, he found that there was a site shortcoming, and Zhu Xian officially changed the contract status and became an A-signed work.

Du Caige just went to check the book results, and now he has uploaded Chapter 7 with more than 3 words.Now there are more than 1200 recommendation votes, more than 170 comments, and 415 favorites.

Du Caige glanced at the comment area. The book reviews are basically good-looking, and some discuss the plot. As expected, there are no bad reviews.

Judging from this trend, it would indeed become popular, which made him let go of most of his worries.

Next, copy the book step by step every day, wait for the recommendation, put it on the shelf, and wait for the rice to be collected.At most, you need to worry about selling copyrights.

In the next day, Du Caige, in addition to code words, is busy supplementing the history, customs, laws, recent international trends of Azure Star, and even famous artists and masterpieces in movies and studies.

Du Yuqi is a very worry-free girl.In addition to going out to play for a while every night, the rest of the time is studying at home or watching TV.

However, there is still no topic between Du Caige and this well-behaved daughter.Except when Du Yuqi asked him for money, the two had almost no communication.

Du Yuqi still refused to speak, and occasionally forgot to speak, and immediately typed "just now is not counted".

I don't know what enmity she has with the original owner.

Soon it was January 1th, Du Caige looked at the calendar, and the Spring Festival would be celebrated in a few days.

He sat calmly in front of the computer and began to type.

I just finished copying 5000 words and was about to take a break. When I moved my wrist, the mobile phone on the table vibrated.

Du Caige picked up his phone and looked at it. There was only one word on the caller ID: "Spring".

This kind of remark makes it impossible to guess the identity of the other party.

Another test after his time travel is about to begin.

Du Caige took a deep breath, pressed the answer button, and said in a natural voice as much as possible: "Hello, I'm Du Caige."

It took a few seconds for the other person to speak, "Listening to your voice, you should be in a good mood."

This person's voice is not particularly young, it should be a woman in her 4s or 50s, with a delicate and gentle tone, a slow speaking speed, full of knowledge and maturity.

Du Caige turned his head quickly: Who is this?Should be relatives or friends?Otherwise you don't care about your emotions.Judging from the other party's age, it should not be the original owner's mother.

Du Caige didn't let himself go, he followed the other person's words and said, "Well, it's okay."

"Quan" said softly: "After the last consultation, you said you wanted to take a week off, so tomorrow is our consultation time again, do you want to come back to the consultation?"

Chapter 19 The original owner's counselor

consult?Counseling?Many thoughts immediately turned in Du Caige's mind.

"Well, I don't want to continue consulting."

The other party paused for a while, as if he was trying to organize his words, and then the words he said were still very gentle: "Whether to continue the consultation is your personal freedom. In fact, you said in the last consultation that you don't want to continue the consultation. I just want to understand, You laughed and said you felt better, but your body language, your micro-expressions told me that wasn’t the case.”

"Xiao Du, please think again, please? Of course, I want to emphasize again, if you want to stop the consultation, it is your freedom. But my door here is always open to you, and you can come back at any time, understand? "

"Okay, thank you, but now I really don't need to consult." Du Caige said.

The other party was silent for a moment before saying: "I believe in you. Then, after a month, after the Chinese New Year, can I make a return visit? You can also come to my consulting room to sit and chat at any time."

Du Caige just wanted to hang up the phone quickly, so as not to reveal his secrets, so he immediately agreed: "Okay, okay, we will talk about it next month. Goodbye!"

Then hang up the phone immediately.

Looking at the grainy mobile phone screen, Du Caige was in a daze for a while.

It seems that it is also good to chat with this consultant, at least you can know some of the original owner's past and mental journey.

But Du Caige also thought that the other party is an expert in psychology, and he would be suspected by the other party if he couldn't say a few words.

Of course, according to common sense, the other party would never have thought that there would be a time travel, and it is more likely that he suspects that he has amnesia.

But Du Caige always felt that the scene would be embarrassing, and he couldn't muster up the courage.

In the future, when I know more about the original owner's affairs, I can really consider going to the other party's consultation room for a sit-down.Well, the premise is to know where the address of her consulting room is.

Why did the original owner commit suicide?Du Caige has always been curious about this question.

If you go to chat with this consultant, you may be able to get some clues.

Let's think about it in the long run.

Just about to put away the phone, Du Caige hesitated again.

He flipped through the call records, hesitated for a while, selected a number, and dialed.

There is a sound of connecting.

Soon the other party answered, and Ning Yuerong's gentle and powerful voice sounded: "Hello."

"I'm Du Caige."

"I know."

Du Caige asked, "Are you okay?"

"I am OK, you?"

Ning Yuerong's voice was more urgent than usual, as if she was dealing with some business.

Du Caige felt that she didn't seem to have time to chat, so he kept the story short: "Thank you for your suggestion, I'm already writing something, and I might be able to make some money soon."

"You're welcome," Ning Yuerong seemed happy with the news, "It's good that you cheer up. I'm looking forward to your new work, come on!"

"Well, then take care of yourself." After hanging up the phone, Du Caige relaxed and continued to devote himself to the great business of copying books.

Ning Yuerong hung up the phone with a smile on her face.

"It's him?" The person who spoke was a woman who looked to be in her early forties, but the fine and dense wrinkles at the corners of her mouth and eyes showed that she was definitely over 50 years old.

Her hair is gray, and her clothes and makeup look plain and delicate.The body is slightly fatter, and the appearance is not beautiful, it can only be called Zhou Zheng.

However, her demeanor is impressive, elegant and tranquil, with her body leaning forward slightly, she always seems to be listening attentively.The eyes are full of compassion, and the faint smile on the corner of the mouth seems to say: I am willing to believe in you, and I will always support you.

The two women were sitting on comfortable single sofas, and between them was a small transparent glass round coffee table. On the coffee table were two cups of steaming tea and a pot of succulent plants.

Ning Yuerong nodded: "Yes, what a coincidence, just after you called him, he called me. Doctor Chen, do you believe me?"

Chen Quan smiled: "You have already produced his medical records, how could I not believe it. And I have always been very clear that he has severe depression and has a high possibility of suicide. It's just"

After pondering for a while, Chen Quan shook his head: "My answer is still: no. This is our industry norm, unless he is endangering other people's lives, I cannot show you his consulting records."

Ning Yuerong didn't feel angry because of being rejected. Before she came to the door, she had expected that the trip would not go well.

Moreover, Ning Yuerong also had some understanding of the industry norms of psychological counselors. When the sub-bureau selected people to participate in the training of psychological counselors, she studied for two months off-duty and even passed the examination for a third-level psychological counselor certificate.She understands the professional ethics of a psychological counselor and knows that Chen Quan's refusal is reasonable.

Bowing her head and thinking for a while, Ning Yuerong said, "Doctor Chen, please understand, I'm just worried about him."

"It can be seen," Chen Quan said gently, "I believe that you have no malice, and I believe that you really care about him. But the counselor must keep the visitor's confidentiality, which is the basic guarantee of psychological counseling."

"Then, Dr. Chen, I don't force you to check Du Caige's consultation records, but can you please choose something you can talk about with me?"

Chen Quan looked directly into Ning Yuerong's eyes, at this moment, Chen Quan's always gentle and understanding eyes suddenly became sharp.Then go soft again.

"With all due respect, Officer Ning, why do you have to know this? You also said that Du Caige is not involved in any case."

"Du Caige is my friend," Ning Yuerong said calmly, "I want to help him."

Chen Quan shook his head: "Please don't blame me for being too straightforward. I don't think you can help him. His problem is quite serious."

Ning Yuerong was silent, but she still looked back at Chen Quan calmly, with persistence expressed in her eyes.

Chen Quan continued to shake her head. After a long while, she still bit her lips with light lip gloss with her white and neat white teeth, and said, "If you have investigated his past, you should know something about it. I said that the media has not reported it, so You may not know, but it doesn't involve his privacy."

Ning Yuerong lifted her spirits and straightened her waist: "Please tell me."

Chen Quan said: "Shortly after the photography scandal happened, that is, around 2003, he suffered from social phobia. It may be because of heredity, or it may be because of the criticism of him by the media after the photography scandal. The cause of his illness is unknown."

"His condition is not particularly serious, but he avoids social situations and generally does not look directly into other people's eyes; in front of strangers, he will feel very uncomfortable and restless. In fact, people close to him have discovered this. A little, so it's not privacy."

"Avoid social situations" Ning Yuerong frowned, recalling the brief contact with Du Caige at that time.She was very sure that Du Caige did not avoid eye contact with her, nor did he show any resistance to normal communication with her.

Chapter 20 Rescue the Single Dog

"Also," Chen Quan continued, "do you know about the car accident?"

Ning Yuerong just thought about it for a while, then recalled, "I know, that happened in early 04."

"That incident hit him much harder than you imagined, and almost completely destroyed him."

Ning Yuerong was puzzled: "How could it be? Although that incident damaged his reputation and cost him some money, it wouldn't destroy him, right? In comparison, the photography scandal had a greater impact on him Bar?"

"I can't tell you the specific situation. The truth of that incident is definitely not what was speculated in the newspapers, nor what was said in court."
