Less than half an hour after the latest issue of "Huaying Comics" was released, the keywords related to Holmes' death immediately topped the hot search lists of major social platforms, and its popularity has shown a surge over time.
#Death of Sherlock Holmes#
#Wanted by the whole network#
#Holmes and Moriarty died together#
"Shameless bastard! If you have the ability to kill people, you have the ability to take responsibility!"
"I hope everyone will calm down and stop cursing. Every author has his or her own creative rights. As readers, we should accept and respect the author, rather than using verbal abuse and other uncivilized methods to demand that the author change... So, is there anyone willing to go with me to the Huaying editorial office and talk to Gouzei about life ideals?"
"I am already a mature reader. I will not send razor blades to the thief this time. I decided to personally wholesale a box of razor blades and deliver them to your door:)"
"When the bastard suddenly started playing two games at the same time, I felt like something was wrong. It turns out he was waiting here! And there was a wanted notice from Huaying Comics three days ago... Ahhh, if I had known, I would have dug the bastard out even if I had to dig deep into the ground! [Stormy Crying]"
"Please, you bastard, be a human being and let our Sherlock Holmes go! As long as you return Sherlock Holmes to me, I promise that I will never urge you to update again!"
…
Not just ordinary netizens.
As the news of "Sherlock Holmes' death" spread further, many bigwigs from all walks of life who rarely post on Weibo stood up and expressed their dissatisfaction with the plot of "The Final Problem".
From the famous movie star of Blue Star to the academic bigwigs who have written many papers on Holmes, even many animation directors, comic authors, and independent game producers who usually have a good relationship with Muxu Star have all defected, and expressed their condemnation and resentment towards their former friends in a unanimous manner:
Shen Xingv: Boss! Qiuqiu, please behave yourself. I promise that I will never delay my manuscripts and play mahjong again. Qaq Can you give Sherlock back to me? [crying]
Cheng Yongzhen v: The author's creative freedom should be respected, but Sherlock Holmes is a treasure of the whole world, and even more so of the academic community. Mr. Muxuxing v's behavior is extremely irresponsible.
World History v: A secret tip: this year, Rocha County is holding an event to select honorary enterprises. There is only one spot available, and the reward is free promotion and tax reduction by the government. Originally, there was no controversy about this spot, but now... ^_^
Qiu Fengmao was overwhelmed.
After successfully dragging the whole world into this, and making everyone cry and regret with him, Qiu Fengmao was now filled with rage.
It has to be said that although he had long anticipated the influence of the Sherlock Holmes series, Qiu Fengmao was still inevitably surprised when everything really happened.
Muxuxing's phone was unreachable. With nowhere else to turn, publishers, distributors, and even film and television companies that had not yet obtained the copyright of the Sherlock Holmes series, as well as university professors and academic leaders who had cooperated with Huaying Animation, all called Qiu Fengmao's phone:
"You killed off the main character and forced the story to end after less than a year of serialization. Are you crazy or do you think the money is too much?"
"If your company insists on taking Holmes' life, Xingning Academy of Fine Arts will terminate all cooperation with Huaying Animation and refuse to provide any professional assistance to Huaying!"
That's fine. After all, we are partners and share common interests. We should pay attention to and protest against Huaying's outrageous actions in a timely manner. The problem is -
Qiu Fengmao looked at the criticism and rebuke from elders, peers and juniors in the family chat group, and he felt completely desperate.
That’s not all.
Considering the past "brilliant achievements" of Muxuxing, Qiu Fengmao had also thought about the angry readers after the publication of "The Last Case". Although there were quite a few people who were very angry and dissatisfied this time, according to past practice, it should gradually calm down over time.
The next day.
Inside the Huaying Office Building, the office lobby was silent.
In sharp contrast, outside the office building, which was rarely visited at the moment, it was now crowded with readers holding banners. Some even took advantage of the chaos of the crowd to smash several windows on the first floor!
"Give me back Holmes!"
"We will never compromise this time! You shameless bastard, if you have the guts to kill Sherlock Holmes, come out now!"
Qiu Fengmao felt his head hurt even more.
I thought readers were just expressing their protest and dissatisfaction verbally as usual, which was no different from the depressing ending of "Puella Magi Madoka Magica". What I never expected was that this time, the fans really meant more than just talking. Although it was not serious enough to actually send razor blades to the company to intimidate them, but...
Thinking of this, Qiu Fengmao raised his head and glanced helplessly at the crowd downstairs.
From the time he went to work in the morning until now, the crowd surrounding the Huaying office building has never dispersed. As time goes by, there seems to be a trend of becoming more "colorful" day by day: some people hold banners and protest loudly, some hold blood-written letters and sit in silent protest, some people simply put a coffin next to the gate, and there is a young man who actually brought out a box of razor blades and started selling them outside in a serious manner.
"If it doesn't work, why don't we try calling the police?" suggested an editor.
"If calling the police would have worked, I would have done it a long time ago," Qiu Fengmao said with a wry smile. "When they first surrounded us, I tried to call the police, but the result was..."
It turned out that the police in Xingning City were also fans of Sherlock Holmes. Upon hearing this, they said that they had an extremely difficult task on their hands and could not be distracted. Since they had lost Sherlock Holmes, they now had to use all their energy to overcome this problem. They hoped that Huaying could hold on a little longer.
Qiu Fengmao was stunned when he heard this.
Things have developed to this point. Not to mention the artist, even passers-by who had only heard of the Sherlock Holmes series but had not seriously studied it were shocked.
After all, no matter how good Sherlock Holmes is, he is not a real person after all. Is it necessary to launch a *** protest just for the death of a paper man
At the same time, in a villa on the Second Ring Road in Xingning City.
bright and clean.
The bright sunlight shines through the flowers in front of the French window, leaving bright shadows on the leather sofa. The interior is quiet and peaceful, and every decoration seems to have a warm atmosphere.
The coffee table was cluttered with snacks. Mu Suxing finished a bag of chicken feet and quickly turned his attention to the mobile game in front of him. He lazily sank into the soft sofa, looking like a model of "sitting in an untidy manner" and looking very leisurely.
Considering his own personal safety, Mu Suxing moved in immediately after obtaining the consent of the villa owner. Along with him came the trial version of the mobile game "My Hero Academia" that Jiang Yucheng gave him the day before.
He was completely oblivious to the chaos in the outside world - or perhaps it was because Mu Suxing knew too well the charm of Holmes and how crazy his fans were about him that he resolutely chose to run away as soon as possible. Now that he was sure that he had arrived at a safe place, he simply ignored the series of life-threatening calls from all sides and played the game with peace of mind.
"My Hero Academia" mobile game is an action game that combines card drawing and fighting.
The character modeling is exquisite, the graphics are fine and smooth, and most importantly, the striking feeling in battle is excellent, and the connection between skills is also very smooth. As an action game, "My Hero Academia" is undoubtedly qualified.
The main storyline of the game is basically the same as the animated version of "My Hero Academia". Players can accumulate funds by completing tasks, or spend money to draw cards to obtain different characters.
After a simple tutorial, Muxuxing started to play. After learning the rules of the game, he quickly plunged into the arena.
Mu Xuxing's operation and awareness were not bad, but his familiarity with the game was limited. In the end, he made a mistake in his positioning and was seized by his opponent, who hit him hard and took him away with a combo.
Mu Suxing, who lost the first battle, didn't think much about it. He exited the arena and returned to the main interface of the game. He was thinking about whether to use the PVE map to practice again. At the same time, a familiar ID suddenly floated over from the world chat channel in the lower left corner -
March 1: Ahhh no, I’m still so angry, so angry that I want to hang the bastard up and beat him up!! I’ll kill the bastard!! [Rage]
Muxiuxing: …
If he remembered correctly, this ID seemed to be the player he had just defeated in the arena? As for this bastard...
As if to prove his guess, a bunch of indignant lurkers suddenly jumped out of the chat channel that had been deserted.
Jinri Yueming: Damn, I really want to crowdfund to let Jingzhi Interactive Entertainment add another boss based on the dog thief. I promise to beat him up in a minute! If the dog thief dares to show his health bar, I dare to kill him 800 times a day! [Angry]
Qiu Xu: The prototype boss is nothing. It would be better if the dog thief himself played this game and was taught a lesson by the arena:)
Chenxi: Although, the situation outside is so chaotic right now. Even if you care about your own game, you probably won’t have the heart to play it at this time, right
Muxuxing, who had been playing the game for almost an hour without realizing it: … … …
Seeing that the topic on the world channel began to turn to "How to make the thieves fall into the trap and feel the kindness and warmth of people in the game", Mu Suxing's fingertips trembled, and he silently quit the game with a guilty conscience.
It's a small world, isn't it? Why are there so many Sherlock Holmes fans everywhere? And the kind that can't be more die-hard
Mu Suxing felt a little depressed. At the same time, with the "click" sound of the key turning, the brown door opened. It was obvious that Qin Sheng had returned from get off work.
Muxuxing blinked: "Brother Sheng?"
He was answered with silence.
Mu Suxing was slightly stunned, and subconsciously raised his head, meeting Qin Sheng's condemning eyes squarely.
Muxiuxing: … … …
Suddenly I thought of a somewhat terrifying possibility.
