Chapter 582 Horror Novel (6)

After they had a general idea of ​​the direction of the investigation, Jun Li prepared to go find Zhou Ju and the others. He said hello to Jiang Jincheng and said that they would meet again after they lined up to go in.

Zhou Ju and the others were getting a little impatient waiting, but Bai Ze was okay. He tagged Jun Li so he probably knew what Jun Li was doing.

If nothing unexpected happens... there will be something unexpected at this book signing event...

"I'm coming! Sorry, I was just chatting with a friend and forgot about it!"

Jun Li looked at Bai Ze only after he returned to the main force. Bai Ze immediately looked at him with a questioning look. Jun Li just gave Bai Ze a reassuring look and then looked at Zhou Ju who was trying hard to see how long the team was.

"Zhou Ju is..."

Jun Li sighed and laughed: "That horror novel... can we not buy the physical book?"

Zhou Ju was stunned for a moment and frowned: "Not buying physical books? Then why did I come all the way here?"

"Oh... just find a piece of paper and ask them to sign your signature... forget about the book..."

Luo Zhi looked at Jun Li and asked softly, "Mr. Jun looked very unnatural after chatting with his friends just now. The way Mr. Jun called you friend just now is also very intriguing..."

"Those two are police officers, right?"

Luo Zhi's mind was extremely quick. Jun Li originally didn't want to hide it, but he didn't know how to tell them for a while. Mainly, he didn't want to involve these two girls as it was too dangerous.

"Alas... I didn't mean to hide it. We've all been through some weird things together, and I don't want to get you involved."

Jun Li sighed and glanced at Zhou Ju: "Listen to me, don't buy that book. If you want his autograph, you can buy his other books, but don't buy this 'Endless Reincarnation'!"

Zhou Ju also realized at this time that Jun Li meant that there was something wrong with the book. She nodded immediately but then she became worried: "Since the police are here, it means something has happened, right?"

"Well... several people died this month. There was no connection between them. The only thing they had in common was that there was an opened copy of 'Endless Reincarnation' at the crime scene."

Jun Li looked at them solemnly: "Those two people just now are indeed policemen. They also know about Li Gui's existence. They just happened to run into him and wanted to ask me for help."

"At present, we only know that the few people who died were all fans of He Jie's books. The common point is that they all bought this book 'Endless Reincarnation'."

"So just now we were discussing whether this incident was a curse or a spooky incident. To be honest, I am more inclined to believe that it was a curse, and the carrier of this curse should be the physical book of this horror novel, because those who read the online novel did not get into trouble, only those who bought the physical book got into trouble."

Bai Ze was silent for a moment and then said bluntly: "If we really want to solve this problem, we can't avoid buying physical books."

"That's right, so I plan to buy two copies for the two of us, but Luo Zhi and Zhou Ju shouldn't buy any. I don't want you to get involved."

Luo Zhi was silent for a moment and glanced at Zhou Ju: "Then listen to Mr. Jun, we won't buy it."

"Because if buying a physical book will lead to being involved in the curse, then Mr. Jun and Bai Ze will definitely be involved, which means they will be in danger anytime and anywhere."

A hint of undercurrent flashed across Luo Zhi's dark emerald pupils: "We must ensure that at least one of the four of us is not caught in the curse, so that we can lend a helping hand in time when others are in danger because of the curse."

"Yes, that's what I mean."

Jun Li really thinks that talking to smart people is easy. The other person can understand what you mean immediately without saying too much.

"Well, then Orange and I won't buy it. If you are in danger, we can also give you help immediately."

Luo Zhi thought for a moment and said with some concern: "But if it is a curse, we actually have to figure out the reason why it was formed... Then the focus of our investigation should be on the writer."

"Obviously the author knew what the impact of publishing the book would be, so why did he insist on publishing it?"

"I haven't read his novels, but Orange has been very diligent in following the updates recently, and I've more or less heard some of what she said."

Luo Zhi looked at Zhou Ju and said softly, "Juzi, I remember you said that the book written by this writer before made you feel a little disappointed, right?"

Zhou Ju was stunned for a moment and then nodded: "Yes, this is the first time I read He Jie's book. Because this book "Endless Reincarnation" is so popular, I was also attracted to it right away. But because it was still serialized at that time, I thought about keeping an eye on the book first, so I went to read his previous works."

"Because I think that people who can write such excellent works should also have excellent previous works. I was wondering why other books were not popular?"

"After reading it, I was really disappointed... The previous books were written in a very formulaic way, the kind that you can tell what will happen next after just reading it."

"Well, so the question is why did Dan suddenly have such a burst of inspiration to write such an excellent novel."

Luo Zhi rolled his eyes and laughed: "Actually, I guess Mr. Jun should think the same as I do, right? It is very likely that the content of this book is what this great writer has experienced. Maybe this novel is actually the diary of this great writer..."

"Yes, I do think so."

Zhou Ju suddenly spoke up: "If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have noticed it! When we read novels, most of them are from a third-person perspective! They give a person a name, and that person is the protagonist! We follow this person to see what happens to him!"

"In fact, He Jie's previous books were also written in this way, but this book 'Endless Reincarnation' is written in the second person 'you'."

"So the sense of substitution is very strong, as if I am really experiencing these things! It's as if someone told me that I really experienced such a horrible thing and survived! I think this is one of the reasons why his book is so popular."

Bai Ze had been silent the whole time, and he suddenly made a bold guess: "You said that those fans who died because of buying his books..."

“Will their way of death correspond to the way of death in the book?”

No one said anything for a moment. Bai Ze looked at them and slowly said, "After all, if it is really a curse, and the curse carrier is a physical book, then what is the content of the curse? It should be related to this physical book."

“Will the people who bought this physical book really be drawn into the plot of the book… and then they were not lucky enough to escape like the protagonist, so they died tragically one after another…”

Jun Li swallowed hard and whispered, "So... He Jie was cursed himself, and then he wrote the curse... So this book became the carrier of the curse, and it spread more and more widely..."

"But...but what is his reason for doing this? Does he have to write his cursed experience into a book to harm others?"

Bai Ze sighed and shook his head: "Two possibilities."

"One possibility is that after he escaped death, he didn't want to waste such good material as the bizarre incident that happened to him because he was not famous before."

"He didn't know that writing this story would lead to the curse becoming this physical book, and as it was published and sold, more and more people would be cursed."

"The first possibility is simply that it was an unintentional act. He wanted to be famous and happened to be cursed. Normal people know that only events that one has personally experienced can shock others. This is why movies nowadays like to put a sentence at the beginning or end... This film is adapted from a true event."

"Because only in this way can the audience feel shocked, find it incredible, and reminisce about it."

Bai Ze held his chin and whispered, "This also explains why there is such a big difference between his book and his previous books. After all, only the fear that one has truly experienced can be unforgettable."

"But the other possibility... is a bit creepy..."
