In the first class cabin of the Southampton locomotive heading for Norwich, Arthur and Jiang Lai sat facing each other by the window.

Arthur frowned slightly, tapping his fingers briskly on the laptop, while Jiang Lai was lying comfortably on the seat, wearing headphones, listening to music, and looking sideways at the scenery outside the window.

He raised his head and glanced at the opposite Jiang Lai, and turned his head to look at the world outside the window of the car that was flying by or slowly retreating. I have to say that this kind of scene always makes Arthur feel unreal...

Gently touched Jiang Lai who was a little confused with his foot, looked at her with some doubts, took off the earphones, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Arthur smiled and asked, "I see you completely lost, and want to ask what's wrong with you."

Jiang Lai gave Arthur a charming look, then took off his earphones, took two sips of coffee on the table, and then looked at the scenery outside the window with a charming smile on his face and said softly.

"You know, I like being on the train very much. Some troubles seem to be unable to keep up with your driving speed, so they will naturally empty." As he said, Jiang Lai turned his head and looked at Arthur again, and continued: "In all Among the transportation tools, there is probably only the train, which makes me feel the direction of forward and backward. Listening to the music, any driving direction will not disturb my almost sluggish "meditation" state. A poet from the sky once wrote , The train can cure people’s insomnia and depression. I believe in this magic very much. Expecting and emptying are probably the best state."

Hearing Jiang Lai's emotion and looking at her expression, Arthur immediately popped out a word in his mind,'petty bourgeoisie'!

"Hehe, then Britain is really suitable for you." Arthur raised an eyebrow and smiled.

Although the territory of the United Kingdom is not large, it has the richest railway layout and the oldest railway transportation system in the world. The frequency of trains is high, and there is no need for security check, no ticket checking or automatic ticket checking, no fixed frequency, or even Seats are reserved, and bicycles can also be brought on the train. Passengers can directly rush to the platform and get on the train without any inconvenience and crowding.No one would dislike railways and trains like this?

Jiang Lai looked at Arthur, smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Nowhere is my homeland, my home is good. Okay, let's not talk about it. I saw you holding the computer and working all the time, what are you doing?"

Now that Jiang Lai turned the topic off, Arthur would naturally not be disappointed, and said with a smile: "Create a new novel."

"Oh, is it a follow-up to "Bolin Manor"?" Jiang Lai's beautiful eyes lit up slightly, and she had to say that she was puzzled about Arthur's talent and also admired it. After all, everyone has a dream of a writer. However, there are very few who can truly become writers, and they cannot do it by themselves, so they admire writers even more.

"No, new subject, detective novel."

"Oh? Let me take a look..." Jiang Lai couldn't help but feel interested, and reached for the laptop.

"It's just a beginning." Arthur didn't stop, but picked up the notebook and flipped the direction to let Jiang Lai read it. "This novel has been planned for a long time, and it was prepared to be published in the Southern Daily Echo. Come out to increase some sales, but now, I want to serialize on the Wuxia World website, not only to increase traffic promotion, but also to set an example for other people with writing dreams."

"Well, "The Detective Sherlock"? You don't want to learn from Holmes, right?" Jiang Lai saw the title of the book and looked up at Arthur.

"Hehe, really keen, but I wrote Sherlock, but his surname is not Holmes. His surname is Boleyn, the detective Sherlock is the official name, and the title of the online book. I am going to use "Walking Death" because of the design It must be, wherever you go, you will die..."

"Wait, you haven't seen the anime "Detective Conan" in the footbath, right? He is known as the pupil of Death!" At this moment, Jiang Lai looked at Arthur with questioning eyes and asked back. .

""Detective Conan"? Reaper pupil?" Arthur pretended to be suspicious, then frowned and shook his head and said, "I have never heard of it. My novel is mainly based on basic deductive methods to detect cases. And there is a main thread."

"Oh." Jiang Lai didn't pursue whether Arthur knew the death pupils. After all, it wouldn't matter if he learned from them. The key lies in the content of the novel and the detection of the case."The dark express train?"

"Well, this is the first case. Use it to commemorate our first journey by train together." Arthur laughed.

Hearing Arthur's words, Jiang Lai raised his head and gave Arthur a charming white. The corners of his mouth rose slightly and began to look.And Arthur reimagined the story in the original "Detective Conan" according to his own needs in his mind, preparing to completely remake and adapt this case, and combine the black organization with the detective Sherlock's behind the scenes in the first season. A huge boss who runs through the entire story.

At the same time, let the prototype of the chased Hui Yuan Ai become the female assistant of the detective Sherlock, instead of Watson, so that he can use the detective Sherlock he has seen in his previous life, the basic deduction method and the famous detective Conan, The storylines and cases of these three dramas have been grafted into his brand new "Sherlock" book.

Think of the Reaper elementary school in the Lifetime series. What you have read can definitely write your detective novel as a famous big IP, and then use this IP to promote the development of online literature websites, increase their popularity and influence , So as to promote the exploration of the value of web-text IP and explore a new path for cultural brand construction.

Whether it's paying for reading, selling copyrights, or developing and launching IP derivative content, for the current martial arts world website, it seems to be far away, and it is indeed too slow to take it step by step.

Therefore, Arthur can only find a way to push, hoping to use his own wind to complete the rise.Of course, this was an attempt, and Arthur himself could not guarantee success.

To be honest, if there was no publishing contract signed with a US publishing house, the "Fifty Shadows of Gray", which became famous on the Internet, would undoubtedly be the best choice of works. Given the popularity of this book on the Internet, it would definitely treat martial arts Pull up the world website.

Thinking of this, to be honest, Arthur almost regretted his intestines, but now it is too late to say anything. The publishing contract has been signed long ago. No way, he can only open a new hole and come to the martial arts world website. Up.

"Is there only this point?" After reading Arthur's writing soon, Jiang Lai looked at Arthur and asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Haha, it just started. When I finish writing, I will be the first one to show you." Arthur took the notebook and smiled, "How do you feel?"

"It's not bad, I don't see much at this short time. However, it is quite exciting to follow up."

"Haha, that's good, yes, this time back to Norwich and move out of the old man's house where you live now." Arthur looked at Jiang Lai's proposal.

Jiang Lai looked at Arthur with a smile on his face, and met Arthur's calm gaze, and stretched out his hand to comb his hair, "I paid the rent for a year."

"Hehe, you just need to agree, and you don't need to take care of other things, I'll take care of it." Arthur smiled, "To be honest, I really don't feel relieved that you are here. The best way is to find one. For high-end apartments, at least security can be guaranteed."

Jiang Lai did not refuse Arthur’s kindness. To tell the truth, her study abroad life is not rich. The money earned in China has already been spent seven or eighty eight. Although the family conditions are good, she still chose to be stubborn. Find a part-time job by yourself, after all, studying abroad is not a paradise in people's imagination.

Norwich is one of the cities with the longest history and the most beautiful parish church in Britain.It is a famous tourist attraction, entertainment, shopping and cultural center in Britain.The magnificent ancient Romanesque buildings in the city and the surrounding countryside with wide views reflect each other, creating a paradise on earth.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Arthur and Jiang Lai walked out of Norwich Railway Station and looked at the clear sky. The two smiled at each other, got into the taxi, and drove to the busiest area of ​​the city center. .

Because it’s already tea time, don’t care about other things, afternoon tea is absolutely indispensable.

As one of the top ten shopping cities in the UK, it not only brings together a variety of independently operated shops, specialty stores, commercial streets, well-known chain stores and supermarkets, but also has two large shopping malls, one of which is the largest shopping mall in Europe. You can buy all world-renowned brands here.

And multi-screen cinemas, art theaters, theaters and many museums and art galleries, as well as many cafes and international restaurants, provide a variety of cuisines, from Asan, Celestial, Greek and Thai cuisine to Mexican, Spanish, Italian and traditional British cooking can be said to have everything.

"I have to say that Norwich is much better than Southampton!" Looking at everything outside the car window, Arthur sighed sincerely, turning to look at Jiang Lai, "By the way, you can drive, do you have a British driver's license? ?"

"It will be held, but I didn't apply for a driver's license here. After all, I have only been here for a few months and I can travel by bus." Jiang Lai smiled.

"Go and get a driver's license. It's easier to have a car. Okay, just listen to my arrangements. How can I not let my woman suffer, right?" Arthur's words directly stopped Jiang Lai who was about to refuse. After all, Chinese and Western girlfriends have different behaviors and attitudes towards boyfriends.

At least Arthur's somewhat overbearing decision, in Jiang Lai's view, was not only an offense, but a caring and considerate performance, which made her truly feel a sense of security of dependence.

"What car do you like?"

"There is no concept, it is enough to be able to travel, I came to study abroad..."

Seeing Jiang Lai’s indifferent appearance, Arthur smiled and nodded, “Indeed, driving a very good car to school will inevitably leave a strange impression on people. The new BMW mini series are already on the market, and the red ones are very beautiful. Not expensive, how?"

Jiang Lai did not answer, but smiled and raised his eyebrows and said, "It's good if you are happy."
