Wenhao: This child has been smart since he was young

Chapter 77 He is dead

Father Gu seemed to be hesitant to speak, wanting to explain something but unable to.

From the original body's memory, we can learn that Father Gu has this kind of personality, a cowardly drunkard who only dares to be domineering at home. But if there is someone more domineering at home, such as Mother Gu, he will immediately become depressed.

"Then you don't have anything else to ask, right? Dad." Gu Lu said.

[Superficial antral type moderate chronic inflammation of the “gastric antrum”], Father Gu looked at the physical examination report and burst into tears. He cried so sadly, as if he was mourning.

"I'm sorry, Gou'er. It's Dad's fault. I'm sorry." Father Gu seemed to have lost his energy and backbone, and he became listless.

“No, no, no,” Gu Lu waved his hand as if it didn’t matter. “The Gu Lu who needed you to apologize is dead. I don’t need this apology.”

The glare of death seemed to have stimulated Gu's father, as if something really was broken, causing him to panic inexplicably and tears to flow.

Human joys and sorrows are not the same. Gu Lu only felt that the crying of the man in front of him was unpleasant to hear and made him want to laugh.

Having said that, Gu Lu was about to turn around and leave, but just as he reached the door he seemed to remember something and added, "My food and lodging are free at No. 8 Middle School, so I don't need to pay for my living expenses of about ten yuan a month. In addition, I hope you won't disturb me while I study. I want to work hard to become a useful person to society."

He wanted to call him to stop, but he didn't need any living expenses or book fees. Everything that Father Gu wanted to say was stuck in his throat.

Gu Lu walked out of the building with a very calm mood and took a deep breath. He had been preparing for this offline fight for a long time.

If it was the original body, even if they had fallen out, they would definitely say, "Dad, you should drink less. Drinking is bad for your health. No matter what you do, Mom won't come back... The future is still long, so you might as well live a good life."

"No wonder children from bad families still find it difficult to escape from their families when they grow up." Gu Lu made a conclusion after some practical experience.

There are basically only two possibilities for escaping. The first is being extremely disappointed, and the second is finding external support. Gu Lu's example is external support, but if it is the first kind of child, how hard it would be.

Gu Lu was in a good mood and planned to splurge and eat hotpot today.

The reason for his good mood was not because he hurt Father Gu. Because "I'm sorry, I'll do it again next time" was the kind of person Father Gu was. The reason he was happy was because he helped the original body say these words.

Before the time travel, Gu Lu was neither extremely disappointed nor had any external support. Now, Gu Lu feels like - he reached out and touched the plum blossoms on the tree branch.

One person, one pair of chopsticks, a bloody battle to the end, and getting pregnant, Gu Lu basically rolled all the way back.

Early the next morning, Gu Lu used his newly purchased Xiaomi 1 mobile phone to make a final check on the manuscript.

After all, the neon branch of the book was changed, and Gu Lu also pondered over it to see if there were any loopholes.

"The four-inch screen is too uncomfortable. It's okay for playing Angry Birds and Talking Tom Cat, but using it to edit files makes my eyes cross." Gu Lu rubbed his eyes.

As expected, practice makes perfect. Current smartphones are OK for emergency use, but it is difficult to use them for long-term typing.

[Ju Chang: The complete manuscript of "Mr. Holmes" has been sent to Editor Han's email address. The full text is about 170,000 words.]
The reason why I couldn't help but say how many words there are in the whole text is because it's 180 yuan per thousand words. I received the royalties for the first volume, and the royalties for the next 120,000 words can bring Gu Lu nearly 20,000 yuan after tax from the serialized royalties.

"Take it step by step, ensure my own life - move out and be independent - buy a mobile phone - buy a computer..." Gu Lu thought, and went to buy one as soon as he got the magazine serial number.

He took out a small notebook and recorded his spending for the past two days. After Gu Lu learned the skill of accounting, he never gave it up.

I have also sorted out the current situation appropriately. Both "When the Stars Shine" and "After School" have problems and cannot be published.

"It's been more than a month since the last time it was triggered at Nanping Amusement Park, and there has been no movement at all." Gu Lu thought, is it that the triggering of the golden finger works better at school? Or is it easier to be witnessed by peers?

Thinking...

As a contracted writer, you have priority in reviewing manuscripts.

Besides, Gu Lu's new book has always been highly anticipated by the editorial department. At the AC Forum's ten-year offline gathering, Gu Lu's remarks on the development trend of mystery novels have remained the focus of their internal discussions for several days!
Even Chief Editor Gao said, "If Gu Lu continues to write in this direction, he might become a leader in new reasoning."

“Maybe” is a good idea, because Chief Editor Gao knew from President Jian that Gu Lu is also good at writing fairy tales and all kinds of novel styles. He is an all-rounder!

Therefore, Han Zang, who was far away in the Daqing editorial department, immediately shouted, "Teacher Gu sent the complete manuscript of Mr. Holmes!"

"Young people have so much energy. They just wrote it and sent it to me."

"Hahaha, Han Zang, you don't need to rush to submit the manuscript. Please forward it to my email address as soon as possible. I want to read it too."

"Ninety-three-year-old Sherlock Holmes, I only read the first volume last time and I still felt unsatisfied."

"I'm so lucky! Hurry up, I have to see it right away."

There was a lot of discussion about it, especially among Xia Mu, the only female editor in the editorial department, who loved this work very much.

Suddenly the door to the editor-in-chief's office opened, and a stern voice stopped the chaos, "What are you arguing about? It's working hours, don't you have anything to do?"

The editorial department seemed to have pressed the mute button and was silent.

"Han Zang, please send me a copy of the manuscript that Xiao Gu sent." After looking around, Chief Editor Gao's eyes fell on Han Zang.

"Okay, okay. I'll send it right away." Han Zang nodded immediately, thinking to himself that the editor-in-chief couldn't hold it in any longer.

Email is convenient. Han Zang forwarded the message with one click. A few minutes later, almost the entire editorial department was looking at Gu Lu's manuscript.

Han Zang took out the first volume and read it again yesterday, so he could enter the story seamlessly.

The first volume ends with Holmes seeing through the poet Li Zhi's deliberate use of Acorus calamus to lure him to China. So what is Li Zhi's purpose?
The second volume begins with Holmes waking up from his sleep.

"It's so smooth. The three lines moving back and forth aren't messy at all." Han Zang couldn't help but praise again.

Three plot lines: retirement life in Sussex, England; Hua Xia and Li Zhi's search for wild Acorus calamus; and finally the last case of 47-year-old Holmes.

As the story develops, each line has recycling, such as the Huaxia line.

It turned out that Li Zhi didn't know anything about wild Acorus calamus. He found Sherlock Holmes just to ask about his father. His father wrote to him saying that he consulted the famous detective Sherlock Holmes before deciding to settle in the UK. Since then, there has been no news from him...

[So, as dusk fell rapidly, I left the garden, leaving only an unfilled emptiness... that emptiness took the shape of a mysterious woman who had never seen me.]
After reading to the end, Han Zang felt his eyes sore. He couldn't help but comment, "You bastard author, this knife is too ruthless!"

Han Zang looked up and saw Xia Mu's eyes were red...
