[The real person is hard to find, and the Edogawa Rampo Award welcomes the first mystery writer in history who does not attend the ceremony to receive the award. 】
The next day, the headlines of major newspapers reported the grand event of the Edogawa Rampo Award last night, and the morning news in Tokyo also excerpted the scene where the host announced that Mr. Theking had won the award. When the representative of the publishing house helped Mr. Theking on stage When receiving the award, many masters in the field of reasoning could not help but show disappointed expressions - in fact, with their status as Japanese reasoning masters, they no longer need to pay attention to the invitation of the Edogawa Ranpo Award.
But they all chose to be there.
Isn’t it clear at a glance what the reason for this is?
Everyone wants to witness the true face of Teacher Theking at this moment. Everyone wants to know who is the mysterious Teacher Theking who can write "White Night Journey", "Devotion of Suspect X" and "Summer of the Bird". sacred.
As it turned out, Teacher Theking was indeed very mysterious and had no interest in going to the scene to receive the award.
This will naturally disappoint many senior masters in the reasoning world. If you don't meet Teacher Theking, your trip will be in vain.
However, it is worth mentioning that when the Edogawa Ranpo Award was announced for Mr. Theking, Mr. Theking still showed some respect - he posted his own message on Twitter a few minutes after he won the award. Thanks: "Thank you for the Edogawa Ranpo Award."
This also gives the Edogawa Ranpo Prize Organization some comfort. At least we are not sticking up to others.
In fact, the Edogawa Rampo Award is not temperamental. If it were not for the efforts of Kadokawa Publishing House, a national publishing house, Mr. Theking, who refused to provide personal information and would definitely not come to receive the award, would definitely not be able to win their award. Togawa Ranpo Prize.
However, there is no if in reality.
Mr. Theking, who is linked to capital, will definitely be favored by Kadokawa Publishing House.
The Edogawa Ranpo Award will definitely give Kadokawa Publishing House some face. After all, this is not cheating. Mr. Theking is indeed qualified to win the award. After a half-hearted push, the award finally fell to Mr. Theking.
Teacher Theking won the award and was welcomed by everyone.
After Mr. Theking posted a tweet thanking him for the Edogawa Ranpo Award, his comment area was naturally flooded with blessings from fans. After all, for fans, this is the first time in Mr. Theking’s life. Important awards.
"Congratulations, my king, for winning the Edogawa Ranpo Award."
"I want to say that I am worthy of being my king. I have perfectly inherited the tradition of winning awards without accepting them."
"I am becoming more and more curious about what kind of existence Teacher Theking is. I have a vague feeling that his personality is a bit arrogant."
"No matter what, I still have to congratulate Mr. Theking first. Last night even Mr. Endouma dedicated himself to the Edogawa Ranpo Award, just to meet Mr. Theking. There are more than one who are curious about the identity of the teacher. We, the readers.”
"It's not just us in Japan. As far as I know, even some mystery enthusiasts abroad are also paying attention to our country's Edogawa Ranpo Award last night, because Teacher Theking also has quite a large number of people in several surrounding countries. Where are the fans, and there seems to be Mr. Theking’s personal support club in Dragon Kingdom…”
Although Mr. Theking did not attend the Edogawa Ranpo Awards, this did not affect the enthusiasm of these fans at all.
Everyone even thinks that Mr. Theking, who won the award but did not accept it, is very unique. Such a unique Mr. Theking makes him even more charming.
It has to be said that fans also have the attribute of making a fool of themselves. If idols play hide and seek with them and remain mysterious, they will not only not be angry, but also find it interesting. Of course, this is also related to the fact that Theking’s fans are keen on mystery novels——
Everyone firmly believes that one day!
They will rely on their reasoning skills to dig out the true identity of Teacher Theking.
For example, everyone inferred several conclusions based on the fact that Mr. Theking doesn’t like to tweet.
Conclusion 1. Teacher Theking is a Martian. He is old and doesn’t like to play young people’s things like Twitter.
Conclusion 2: Teacher Theking has a very aloof personality in real life, so he naturally talks less, so he rarely updates Twitter.
Conclusion 3: Mr. Theking has a very arrogant personality. He feels that the Edogawa Ranpo Award, a newcomer award, is of too low a weight and is not worthy of his identity, so he wants to use a bigger award to reveal his identity and get one in one go. Big news…
There are actually dedicated people recording these conclusions.
In other words, in order to deduce the true identity of Teacher Theking, fans have formed a special discussion group.
So this is destined to be a game of wits and courage between idols and fans. It depends on whether these fans can deduce the real identity of Teacher Theking before he reveals it, or if Teacher Theking never reveals his identity, everyone will never be able to deduce the conclusion.
Of course, these things also reflect from the side how popular Teacher Theking is in Japan now.
His first debut work "White Night Walk" caused an impact on the Japanese literary world, and then defeated the first person in the Japanese mystery literary world, Teacher Endo Ma, and the sales of three consecutive works dominated the schedule, becoming popular in the Asia-Pacific region. Recently, he won the Edogawa Ranpo Award, and he did not accept the award. These achievements one after another are all legendary, and some people have even shouted that Teacher Theking is the first person in Japanese mystery.
So, is Teacher Theking the first person in reasoning?
On this point, the Japanese mystery literary world has remained silent, without refuting or affirming.
Although Teacher Theking did win over Teacher Endo Ma in the literary duel, it is somewhat arbitrary to decide the title of the No. 1 reasoner with a literary duel, so at this time, everyone's attitude will appear to be more ambiguous.
In short, in the hearts of many mystery book fans, Teacher Theking is already the most powerful person who writes mystery novels.
Even Endo Ma himself has tacitly acknowledged the fact that Teacher Theking is better than himself, because whether it is "White Night Walk" or "The Devotion of Suspect X" or "Summer of the Bird", the quality is too high, so high that Endo Ma feels that it is insurmountable.
So, what is our Teacher Theking doing now?
The answer is that Luoyang is answering the phone, and the call is from his former assistant.
In this international long-distance call, Hua Qi's voice is as clear as ever: "Boss, the latest news about Sister Qin is that she will go to Japan to hold a solo concert in three days, with a total of three concerts."
(The extra event mentioned yesterday will end on Double Eleven, so there is still a lot of time. In addition, after the guaranteed two updates today, I should continue to pay off my debts. Please support me.)
