THE Hello Star BOOKSTORE
Visitors come to look for a book or novel. Today the weather in the imperial capital is quite overcast and the autumn of the second month makes the weather quite cold all night.
A group of girls in high school uniforms also came to the bookstore. They began looking for novels that are now popular among internet readers and physical books.
They seem to be talking about one of the horror novels that has been turned into a movie of the same name. The author of the novel committed suicide this morning.
A group of High School girls were talking quite loudly because the news had been released on the internet and also broadcast news on television. Even so, the sales of the novel have sold as many as one million copies and the film has been in theaters a few days ago. The reason why the author committed suicide is still unknown but their people suspect that the main reason is depression.
The author has no family left so no one can be given special testimony. The case was closed with the results of a suicide investigation. All fans do not accept. But the facts can only slap them and inevitably can only accept the decision of the authorities.
Even so, his novels are becoming more popular nowadays and lovers of novels are starting to buy for collections. The film is also still being screened in theaters scattered across the capital as well as some other mid-sized parts of the city.
“Sweetest. Though I would love to sign it.” One of the students spoke in a sad tone. Holding the popular horror novel, he spoke again. “I heard the author has a good friend?”
“I don't know about this. But at the investigation session, a woman who claimed to be her best friend said that the novel was now represented by her including money from the sale of books and films.” His friend also said with a bit of annoyance.
“Is it genuine?”
“There is a letter written directly by the author accompanied by his signature. Police have confirmed it is true.”
“That's really good. Not to mention his best friend was also a childhood friend. When the news of the author's suicide was announced, his best friend was in another country to shoot the film.”
“Yes. I can still remember how his facial expression when he saw the author's body being transported to the hearse. He was crying hysterically and roaring in disbelief. I can feel his deep emotions.”
Some of the High School girls talked during choosing books at the store to go to the cashier to pay. They didn't realize that a girl who was the same age as him had been behind the bookshelf where they had spoken earlier and had overheard him by accident.
Shen Yin looked at their departure with a flat gaze.
The girl tried to search for popular tags about the horror novels they were referring to as well as related movies. Later, news of the author's suicide case surfaced. Shen Yin squinted her eyes and knew the author's real name.
“Li Nuo?” he murmured in wonder. The author's pen name is Little Rabbit. The time of death was this morning in his apartment.
Shen Yin immediately ended her search and saved the smartphone back into her hoodie pocket, then picked up the popular horror novel book this month.
Deep Story, that was the title of the book and after seeing a bit of description on the back of the cover, he finally understood if the novel was about a female protagonist who had the ability to predict the death of others.
After deciding to buy the novel, Shen Yin headed to the cashier and paid for it. The time also showed nine o'clock more than a quarter. At ten o'clock tonight, the shop will be closed. After paying for the book, Shen Yin came out and found that it was raining.
He immediately went and ran small to intercept the taxi and went home.
Arriving at the apartment where he was currently living, Shen Yin immediately entered without greeting the people who were also residents on the same floor.
Shen Yin sat in front of the three-screen monitor and checked the other news about Li Nuo's suicide case. He could see a woman in a white dress taking off her glasses and crying hysterically as she saw Li Nuo's body begin to be put in the hearse.
Shen Yin repeated several times and focused on observing the so-called female friend of the author. He pauses a few times in a few scenes.
Shortly after, Shen Yin revealed a clear mocking smile. He immediately switched to another monitor and started moving his fast-moving finger on the keyboard.
After hacking into something, Shen Yin sneered. “Poor author,” murmured.
At least for tonight, that's enough. He'll find out tomorrow.
