This summer, "The Hidden Corner" caught fire, and the mountain climbing terrier that was born from it lasted for a summer of heat. A few days ago, "The Silent Truth" exploded again, and multiple platforms gave a high score of more than 9 points. If you've followed both of these shows, you know they both come from the "Theater of the Mists." "Mist Theater" has become synonymous with high-quality suspense and mystery dramas.
I think all literary and artistic young people who love to watch novels and movies will like suspense and mystery novels. This kind of novel plot is brain-burning, and there are sad and lamentable emotions hidden behind the confusing case, which makes people sigh.
Just like Keigo Higashino's "The Devotion of Suspect X", this is not only a suspense novel with an intricate plot that does not see the final ins and outs of the case, but also a rare love novel - the love of the male protagonist for the female protagonist is touching and sad.
I was fascinated by Keigo Higashino a few years ago, and found that Keigo Higashino had won the "Edogawa Random Walking Award", the name is a bit familiar, said with colleagues to listen, colleagues said me: "You don't even know Edogawa Conan?!" This intellectual blind spot attracted ridicule from a bunch of "Conan fans".
I only then learned about Edogawa, the father of Japanese mystery fiction and keigo Higashino's literary mentor.
During the National Day period, take the child to the bookstore, and accidentally see the "Juvenile Detective Corps - the Strongest Brain Edition" of the Edogawa chaos, and I can't put it down when I flip it.
Although the story was written half a century ago, it seems outdated today — there are always ambitious people who, with ulterior motives, try to subvert world peace, and fortunately the vast majority of people are peace-loving, just like the author himself.
I read the first book in the "Junior Detective Corps - The Strongest Brain Edition" series, "Alone in the Dark Camp", and immediately understood Edogawa's chaotic reasoning style, and agreed that this set of books can indeed improve the observation, imagination and logical reasoning ability of children and teenagers.
There are various genres of Japanese detective novels, and the style of Edogawa's chaotic steps belongs to the "Benge school". The "Benguet school" pays attention to "logic" and "thinking", that is, unfolding the plot through logical reasoning, and at the same time, placing the reader and the detective on the same level, both of which have the same clues to solve the case, so that the reader can get the pleasure of reading in participating in the cracking of the case and exploring the truth.
The advantage of this style is that the story is brightly paced and the reader gets an "immersive" reading experience.
In "Alone in the Dark Devil Camp", an unknown creature appears at the beginning of the chapter - an "octopus-like" Martian, which immediately brings the reader into a tense and eerie atmosphere, and then the black-painted robot "Electric Man m" also appears, and his image is even more bizarre and terrifying.
When I thought there was going to be a sci-fi plot next, maybe Star Wars, I found that the panic caused by "Martians" and "Electric Man m" was just looking for an opportunity to spread a business card and invite Tokyoites to "go to the moon together."
It's really funny. As teenage detective Yoshio Kobayashi steps in, readers quickly learn that the so-called "Martians" and "Electric Man m" are all disguised by employees of the travel company in order to attract people to visit their new project, the artificial moon.
When I thought that the plot was just such a thing as to relieve the boredom of a child, the story switched to another scene, and the pattern suddenly became larger- the chemist Dr. Endo had invented a secret weapon that could subvert the world, and now the experiment was about to succeed, attracting a variety of unidentified characters, including international spies.
Thus, a series of strange things happened - the robot "Electric Man m", which had previously advertised the artificial moon, appeared frequently near the Doctor's home, and even entered the laboratory, but was able to disappear in the secret room; the Doctor's bedroom was empty; and even the Doctor's family was kidnapped.
It was the turn of the young detectives to strike, and the members of the Junior Detective Corps, Pocket Boy, took advantage of their height to infiltrate the "Dark Devil Camp", the artificial moon, and after a long period of hardship, finally took out the murderer, and with the blessing of the new weapon invented by Dr. Endo, the murderer, the monster thief Twenty Faces, and his men were killed.
The whole story, suspense, climax, plot progress is very fast, very suitable for children to read.
This version of "Young Detective Corps" is called the strongest brain version, because the editors carefully set up the level according to the laws of brain science, forcing readers to stop and think about the problem, and attached a "super secret card" to reveal the truth.
This setting cleverly invites readers to participate in solving the case and enhances the reader's "sense of participation".
I've seen two little boys in bookstores reading these kinds of books, discussing them, guessing, and then reading the answers with decryption cards, and sometimes they wonder, "How is this?" Mingming..."; sometimes clapping and laughing: "I just know...", in short, the two children watched the heat.
In fact, don't talk about children, even I like this reading mode. When you guess correctly, your heart rejoices and you can feel the rise of the corners of your mouth; when you can't guess, you will frown and think, go back and look at the plot again, if there is still no answer, you have to wait for the secret.
In the process of reading, it is as if I have also worked hard to solve a small case.
Looking back now, the setting of the level tests the reader's observation, logical reasoning ability and memory, and as the plot advances, the case becomes more complex, and the test is the reader's comprehensive ability.
Of course, this kind of detective novel naturally exercises children's concentration and imagination, because children will imagine pictures in their minds, guess the direction of the story, and in the process of imagination and thinking, they will naturally maintain concentration.
As mentioned earlier, detective novels always have sad and lamentable emotions hidden behind the confusing facts of the case, touching the reader.
The same is true of Camp Dark Lords.
When the twenty faces of the strange thief are captured and Dr. Endo's son is rescued, Dr. Endo makes a "great enlightenment" decision - to abandon this destructive weapon.
In fact, the destructive power of the weapon invented by the doctor may be amazing, but the scene is not bloody--it just makes the enemy army and people sleep on a large scale.
Even so, the Doctor had to abandon the invention lest it be exploited by ambitious politicians or military men.
This attitude is clearly the author's attitude toward war in a disorderly manner.
The creation time of "The Young Detective Corps" happened to be the year before the Japanese invasion of China, and Edogawa set up such a story ending, clearly expressing his anti-war attitude and conveying the belief of loving peace.
After Japan embarked on the path of aggression and war, Edogawa fought against militarism with silence and once "closed his pen" to express protest.
Opposing war and loving peace are the emotions, attitudes, and values hidden in the story of "Original Dark Devil Camp". I really should give Mr. Edogawa a big thumbs up.
"Junior Detective Corps" is a detective novel written by Edogawa Rampage specifically for children and teenagers. "Junior Detective Corps - The Strongest Brain Edition" has joined the game of breaking through, and young readers can compete with the star detective Wise Xiaogoro, which enhances the sense of fun and participation.
Conan fans can also come to a wave of memory killing.
