Chapter 480 Becoming a Chess Piece
What Su Xiaoxiao said was right. As soon as she and Xiao Hu got in the car, he recognized Su Xiaoxiao's identity.
Since he started writing novels, he has been paying attention to the news happening in the city every day. Su Xiaoxiao has been on the hot search list several times, so it is impossible for him not to notice it.
He knew that she was a police officer, and a very capable one at that. He even thought about writing a detective novel based on Su Xiaoxiao.
However, the suspense novels he wrote were not written from the police’s perspective. In his novels, the police were basically just tools, so he couldn’t think of a good angle for a while.
He suddenly had the urge to get to know her.
He could see that the couple were not the child's parents, and he believed Su Xiaoxiao could see it too.
He spoke out to expose the couple's identity just to get her attention and see how she would handle it.
As a result, Su Xiaoxiao lived up to his expectations and was even more powerful than he thought, especially her off-the-charts fighting power, which made him extremely envious.
Seeing Wen Mo's expression, Su Xiaoxiao knew that she had guessed right.
"So, why did you deliberately get to know me?"
He couldn't really say why. He just had this impulse at that moment. As for what he would do after getting to know them, he hadn't actually thought about it.
Seeing his conflicted expression, Su Xiaoxiao spoke again.
"Since you don't want to say it, let me guess. You want to get to know me because you've encountered a difficult situation, but you don't have any evidence and don't know what to do. So, you actually want to ask me for help."
This time, Su Xiaoxiao used a declarative sentence instead of a question.
Ask for help? Perhaps subconsciously, this was true. Wen Mo raised his head and no longer avoided Su Xiaoxiao's gaze.
"I don't know, but I was really confused and didn't know who to tell. When I recognized you, I impulsively revealed the identities of the couple. Maybe I really subconsciously wanted to ask you for help, but everything is my guess. I don't know if you will believe it."
"Tell me."
"Six years ago, I met someone on a literature lovers forum."
Wen Mo recounted the entire story of how he met the Night Walker and how he started writing novels under his guidance.
After listening, Su Xiaoxiao pointed at the icon that was still flashing on the computer screen and asked, "Is this the person?"
"Correct."
"So, what exactly is your confusion, or when did you start to feel that something was wrong?"
When did he start to feel that something was wrong? It should be when he participated in an offline activity of the book club.
Ever since his novel was published as a physical book, he has to deal with more people and accept more invitations. He doesn't like such social activities at all. To put it bluntly, he is a socially phobic person at heart.
Peng Wei, the person in charge of this reading club, left a good impression on him and was easy-going. After a few contacts, he agreed to his invitation. Now Peng Wei is equivalent to half of his agent.
They agreed that he would not show his face at the event, and no one except Peng Wei knew his real identity.
The second time he attended an offline reading club event, he felt something was wrong, and this wrong came from Shi Hongxia.
He was also promoting his new book that day, and after the event, everyone else left, leaving only a woman sitting on a stool with tears streaming down her face.
He thought she had encountered some difficulties and hesitated whether to comfort her. Unexpectedly, she stood up and hugged him, crying and saying something. She knew that her father was a good man and she knew he must have been wronged.
He was terrified at the time and wanted to pull her off his body and run away, but he was a socially anxious person and he was so nervous that he couldn't move when being held by someone.
Later, Peng Wei came to help him out and took Shi Hongxia over to comfort her.
However, somehow Shi Hongxia got his WeChat and added him as a friend. He didn't know it was her at the time. She said she was a staff member of the reading club.
After adding him, she talked to him about the book and asked him if what he wrote was true.
He is writing a novel, how can it be true? He did borrow some prototypes from the cases, but they are basically the opposite of the prototypes. The prototypes of the cases are all real criminals, but what he wrote is not.
If it is written according to the original version, no one will read it. People nowadays like to twist it again and again.
His answer was very official, saying that the novel was based on life but was higher than life. He also reminded him that there was a hint on the homepage of the novel that the article was purely fictional.
But Shi Hongxia didn't believe it. She said, "What you wrote was so true, how could it be false? You must know that my father was wronged, right? You must have evidence in your hands, right?"
He thought that Shi Hongxia was a lunatic. How could someone invest so much emotion in a novel?
So he told her clearly that the novel was fake and had nothing to do with her father's case.
But she said that she knew you were afraid of retaliation, so you didn't dare to say it, and could only write the truth in the novel.
The scholar couldn't explain himself when he met the soldier. He was almost going crazy and later blocked her.
But after being blocked, she will come back under a different name.
He had no choice but to ask Peng Wei for help.
Later, Peng Wei told him that it had been settled and Shi Hongxia would not bother her again.
He asked Peng Wei how he handled it. Peng Wei said that people like this all have psychological problems, and that the problem could be solved by helping her find a psychologist.
Sure enough, when he met Shi Hongxia again later, Shi Hongxia no longer behaved strangely towards him.
However, he didn't know why he had a strange feeling in his heart. Could his novel have such a big impact on the criminal's family? !
So, he hired a private detective to check the situation of the families of the criminals in those cases and found that they were not doing well.
He felt something was wrong at the time, but he didn't expect that he would meet several other people one after another in subsequent activities.
These people were more excited than others when they saw his book. Could it be that they all believed what he wrote was true?!
He also accidentally learned that Shi Hongxia's fiancé at the time died a violent death, and the way he died was the same as the revenge method he wrote in his book, and it looked like an accident.
After knowing this, he felt terrible. He felt like he had fallen into some kind of trap and someone was taking advantage of him.
His novels were based on real cases. The cases used in them were all selected with the explicit or implicit suggestions of the Night Walker, and the outlines were discussed by the two of them. He gave him a lot of suggestions.
You can't think about this matter too much. The more you think about it, the more terrifying it will become.
Later, when he was chatting with the Night Walker, he asked this question directly, but he did not give a direct answer. Instead, he mentioned his family far away in Dragon City.
He has written so many suspense novels, he was aware of this hint. He was threatening his family to keep his affairs under wraps, but he knew he had become someone else's pawn.
Moreover, the Night Walker has recently made new suggestions.
