Akihara Yuto thought for a while, then continued: "The third method is a trick about the timing of the murder, which are..."

All of a sudden, the whole tea room seemed to become his personal lecture hall, and the others could only be students honestly.

To be honest, what he said was nothing in the circle of reasoning fans in the previous life, but for this world where no one has systematically analyzed the reasoning techniques, it makes people feel extraordinarily novel, like enlightenment, enlightenment...

[72.Chapter 72 Trick and Humanity]

Genius, as the name suggests, refers to a person with natural talent.Although it is very unfair, some people are born better than most people in learning ability and innovation and development ability in one or more aspects.

In the neon society, there are such cases in all walks of life.

In the music industry, RB singer Kenshi Yonezu started composing songs at the age of 18 and made his debut at the age of 21.Less than 3 years after his debut, he became the album champion of RB Oricon.In addition to writing lyrics and composing music, he also contracted an album's post-production sound effects, MV animation and other active work.

In the ACG world, Urobuchi Gen also created a series of famous works across many fields such as games, novels, and animations within a few years of his debut, which moved the audience and readers, and called him "the warrior of love" .

In the field of literature, Ryunosuke Akutagawa created "Rashomon" when he was 23 years old, and was appreciated by Natsume Soseki and accepted under him. Yasunari Kawabata published "A Scene of the Conjuring Festival" when he was 22 years old, which was well received by the public , which became famous in one fell swoop.

In the world where Akihara Hiroto is now, there is no lack of such characters appearing, but whenever such characters appear, they will be sought after by everyone in the society.

When hearing Yuuto Akihara talk about the nine tricks, Yuu's real perception of the sect became complicated.

Before that, he thought that the other party was just a "pseudo-genius" touted by the media, who just wrote a work that fit the market trend.

After all, in Qiuyuan's works, there are pitifully few reasoning techniques, and they are completely a collection of thriller novels with reasoning skin.

But after listening to Akihara Hiroto's analysis of a series of tricks, he found that the other party's theoretical level far exceeded his imagination.

To be honest, if he could understand what the other party said earlier, he could design more exciting content and plots when creating "The Footsteps of Search", and he would not be evaluated by some book reviewers as "lack of story and depth". .”

Although this made him feel deeply jealous, he had to admit that the other party's talent made him amazed.

He even thought about a question, were the arrangements he entrusted to his girlfriend's father to make before really correct?

On the other side, Hiroto Akihara spoke for a full 30 minutes before he finished explaining the nine tricks that Edogawa Ranpo analyzed, combined with some cases he had seen, and gave a good lesson to everyone on the field class.

After he finished speaking, he picked up the teacup and drank the sencha in it. Then he looked around the crowd and found that some people were thinking, while others were taking notes. However, why did Menshe Yuma look so strange? , as if struggling with something...

He took out another wagashi from the plate in front of the table, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed a few mouthfuls, and then swallowed it.

To be honest, he now has a very strange feeling. He originally wanted to come here to learn other people's novel writing skills, but it turned out to be a class for them.

This reminded him of his previous life, and he remembered that he was often used by his tutor to give lectures to undergraduates...

After a while, Seto Yuji seemed to have made notes, she glanced at Yuuto Akihara, then called a servant to bring more refreshments, and put them in front of Yuuto Akihara, making the latter a little embarrassed up.

After finishing this, Seto Yuzhi knelt down on her seat again, and said politely: "Mr. Akihara, I have benefited a lot from what you said, but I still have a question to ask you."

Hiroto Akihara nodded, "Please tell me, if you know, I will tell you."

"The design of tricks, you have already described it very well, but any wonderful reasoning story is inseparable from the combination of tricks and human nature, so what do you think?"

When Hiroto Akihara heard this question, he glanced at her in surprise. Isn't the human nature and tricks that the other party said were the disputes between the authentic faction and the socialist faction.

But this Seto-sensei would ask such a question, which shows that she is still thinking about how her literary path will go.

Having said that, the other party has debuted for so long, is he still considering changing his style?If this is the case, it means that she still wants to continue exploring her literary path!

Hiroto Akihara thought for a while, and continued: "I think that humanity and tricks are just the part that makes the story more exciting, but as creators, we still have to base ourselves on the murderer, and let the trick and the murderer be closely integrated."

Seeing Mie Seto nodding, he continued: "The murderer's character, education and interpersonal relationship will determine his motive for killing, and all of these will become the premise of designing tricks. After all, a murderer with a particularly low level of education, It is impossible to use any advanced mechanism and scientific knowledge to kill people."

He coughed and continued: "From my personal point of view, I still prefer to talk about human nature, so as to enhance the drama and storyliness of the plot, rather than blindly increasing the complexity of tricks."

Ishiiyou, who was taking notes, was surprised, raised his head, and asked in doubt: "Why, Mr. Akihara, isn't orthodox reasoning meant to strengthen the design of tricks and provide readers with the fun of guessing riddles?"

Hiroto Akihara glanced at him, and found that he was happy and forgot that there was such an orthodox school, but after thinking about it, he decided to stick to his point of view: "From the perspective of creation, humanity and tricks Nature is indispensable."

"However," Hiroto Akihara changed his tone, "In fact, most of the works can't do this step, and we can only choose one of the two to stand out."

This topic has already involved the debate between the Benevolent faction and the Socialist faction, and everyone on the field looked at it curiously for a moment.

In the eyes of everyone's inquiring doubts, Akihara Hiroto continued: "The essence of a mystery novel is still a story. As long as it is a story, it must pay attention to the drama of the story itself, and the depiction of human nature can highlight the drama very profoundly." This one. Conversely, if the tricks are designed to be more profound and complex, how many readers will be able to enjoy the fun of the story itself?"

Hearing these words, Ishiiyou fell into deep thought, thinking of the evaluation of his works by previous book critics, he had a different idea in his heart.

The others also seemed to have realized something, and showed different expressions, and Mie Seto showed a smiling face.

Although the two belonged to different editorial boards, the rivalry between the magazines was not directly related to them as writers.

So she is still very happy to have such a junior appear. To be honest, she can't wait to see the other's next work.

After all, the works of geniuses are always worth looking forward to!

Thinking of this, she said gently: "Mr. Qiuyuan, everyone has benefited a lot this time. Can you please talk about relevant content in future gatherings?"

She stood up and bowed deeply: "Please."

Facing this invitation, Akihara Hiroto was a little dumbfounded for a while. Although he could teach these writers for ten days and a half months without repetition based on the knowledge he had accumulated in his previous life, his throat was a little hoarse after lecturing today. This time, no, it turned into the hard life of tutoring undergraduates for tutors.

But it's not all bad, you can take this opportunity to build your reputation and make more contacts.After all, although I think the quality of the work is the most important thing, I don't think the network is useless at all.

Seeing that Akihara didn't reply, other writers stood up and bowed besides Yuma, "Teacher Akihara, I'm counting on you!"

Seeing this scene, Hiroto Akihara also made a choice. He immediately stood up and replied: "Thank you for your appreciation. If there is a chance in the future, I will still come over and discuss with you!"

Hearing Hiroto Akihara's answer, everyone on the field smiled with satisfaction.

By this time, the sky outside had completely darkened. As the host, Mie Seto extended an invitation to everyone: "Dinner is ready, please follow me to the restaurant."

After saying this, she walked up to Akihara Hiroto, and stretched out her hand to lure him to follow her.Akihara Hiroto was also polite, and followed the other party out of the gate first.

After that, other writers stood up one after another, and walked together to the place where they had dinner in twos and threes.

The door association Youzhen walked at the end of the line, he looked at Akihara Yuto's back, and he had complicated thoughts in his heart.

Hiroto Akihara, with your talent, you can get ahead in other publishing houses.Sorry, if you want to blame, I will blame you for coming to "New Novel"...

He clenched his fists tightly, let go of his entanglement, and made a decision in his heart!

[73.Chapter 73 Reasons for not leaving the job]

Hiroto Akihara followed Seto Mie's footsteps and walked along the corridor for more than ten minutes before arriving at the restaurant at the other party's home.

Although he was well prepared, he was still a little surprised when he saw the luxury of the other party's restaurant.

After the servant pushed open the shoji door, he saw a room with lanterns, calligraphy and paintings, about 60 stacks (72 square meters) in size, and a wooden floor made of precious wood at first glance.

In this huge space, there is only one long table and servants serving on both sides.On the table, rich dishes have been prepared.

Under the signal of Seto Mie, Akihara was assigned to the position next to Seto Mie, which is the second farthest from the gate, which can be said to be the most honorable position besides the host.
