Chapter 1419: Room 515

Zhang Heng didn’t spend too much time on his own, and he soon blended into life at the villa.

During the day, he spent most of his time hunting with Hemingway and his group of friends, talking about poetry and literature, or listening to Asimov Ramble on about his newly constructed future world, in terms of science fiction writing, Zhang Heng was definitely not as good as Asimov. However, because he had experienced two future replicas of a leaker and a bodyguard, Zhang Heng’s description of the future also piqued Asimov’s interest.

The latter was also planning to pull all the sci-fi writers in the villa together to set up a small club. Zhang Heng, who had been with Asimov recently, was also invited to become the second member of the club.

In addition, Zhang Heng had accidentally connected with another strange small group because he had solved a burglary in the villa, even though the burglary turned out to be the work of that small group.

Only after Zhang Heng joined the group did he realize that such a case would be staged at least once a week, and it was arranged by a different person.

That’s right, this group would be the reasoning society.

The reasoning society was formed by two men and one woman, and it was also in this society that Zhang Heng met Conan Doyle again. However, Conan Doyle had no impression of Zhang Heng at all, it was as if it was the first time he met Zhang Heng. He was very polite, but when he realized that Zhang Heng’s reasoning method was actually the deductive method, Conan Doyle was obviously interested, in the end, he obediently handed in his room number.

However, Zhang Heng was also sure that this Conan Doyle in front of him was not the same person who gave him the pen in the deductive method copy.

In fact, over the past few months, Zhang Heng had already gotten a good grasp of the residents and the service staff of the villa, but the owner of the villa had never shown up.

The bored writers of the inference society were obviously interested in this issue. They had started their research before Zhang Heng, and they had come to a shocking conclusion.

“The owner of the villa is among us.”

Opposite Zhang Heng, a dignified-looking lady with a sharp gaze and a necklace around her neck picked up the coffee on the table and smiled.

“Why do you say that?”

“Because if you were the owner of the villa and spent so much effort to gather all the outstanding authors in one place, it would be impossible for you to miss the excitement that will follow. No matter who he is, no matter what his purpose is, he must be observing us from somewhere,”the lady with the necklace said in a low voice, at the same time, she took a sip of her coffee.

As she said this, the atmosphere suddenly turned creepy.

Well, who asked Zhang Heng to sit in front of the Queen of Detective Stories, Agatha Christie? Her detective stories, such as “Murder on the Orient Express”, “Murder on the Nile”, and “No one survived”, were well-known, according to statistics, in this world, only the Bible and Shakespeare’s works sold more than her.

And she was also one of the three leaders of the inference society.

But this time, the queen of inference was also slightly wrong. In the entire villa, perhaps only Zhang Heng knew the real intention of the owner of the villa to gather all the world’s outstanding authors.

But even if he told the truth to Agatha Christie, the other party probably wouldn’t believe him, and probably would think that he was too conceited.

However, Zhang Heng did want to meet the owner of this place again. It might not be now, at least before he left this dungeon. Furthermore, Zhang Heng had to admit that Agatha and the others’deduction was a little off, but it was not without reason.

Therefore, he asked humbly, “Then who do you think is the most likely person in the manor?”

“You,”Agatha said without hesitation, “You are the most suspicious because you are the last to arrive, and you live in the last years. No one here has read your novels, and no one knows you. We don’t even know if your identity as a novelist is true or false.”

“…”

“But,”Agatha changed the subject, “Now I don’t think you’re like him. I’ve heard about what happened between you and Shakespeare. If you’re really the owner of this place, there’s no reason that you don’t know what kind of person he is, so you wouldn’t have provoked him in the first place. Moreover, your clear and bright stance as soon as you came to the villa doesn’t quite fit the identity of the owner of the villa. “However, we can’t rule out the possibility that you deliberately did these things to distract us when you know you’re the most suspicious. After all, the end of a detective novel often has an unexpected twist.”

“Then what about other than me?”

“Room 515,”Agatha said after some thought, “You should have heard about the room on the fifth floor that is closest to the end of the corridor. The tenant inside has never shown his face. The food and water are delivered by the waiters here. It is very mysterious. However, in a detective novel, this kind of character is basically a distraction thrown out by the author to attract the attention of the public. In comparison, I am more willing to suspect you.”

“Thank you. If there’s a day when I can’t take it anymore and want to confess, I’ll definitely come to you first.”Zhang Heng expressed his gratitude to Agatha and stood up.

When he reached the entrance of the Refreshment Room, Agatha’s voice came from behind him

“It’s your turn to set up the next deduction game. Your previous case of the mysterious Ripper was quite good. It’s as if you’ve experienced it yourself. I look forward to seeing you perform again.”

After bidding farewell to Agatha, Zhang Heng accepted the invitation of the best-selling fantasy author to attend a popular novel seminar. Initially, Zhang Heng thought that after he had fallen out with Shakespeare, he would not be invited to similar gatherings anymore, however, reality proved that he was overthinking things.

Other than the female author who had served her at Shakespeare’s side, most of the authors in the manor also admired Shakespeare’s works and acknowledged his status in the literary world. However, they were far from being obedient to his every word, furthermore, his actions were also noticed by the people around him.

Although those people were not as tough as Zhang Heng appeared, there were still quite a number of people who disliked him. As a result, no one invited Zhang Heng to Shakespeare’s Party, however, there were more people who invited Zhang Heng to a private party between a few of the smaller authors’friends than Shakespeare.

As a result, Zhang Heng’s writing skills continued to improve as planned. Although it was not as easy to train as other skills, with the help of a group of masters, after three months.., zhang Heng’s writing skills finally broke through to LVL 1. He then wrote two short stories according to Hemingway’s request and gave them to other authors to comment on, including the highlights and problems. Zhang Heng then revised them, this kind of growth was the fastest.
