Chapter 239: Save the Cat or Save the Painting

When Theodore learned that the author was going to start writing his third novel, he was very excited, so excited that he couldn't even sleep, and he kept guessing about the subject of the novel in his mind.

He also told his mother the news. After watching "Grandmaster", his mother became obsessed with it and stayed up late to watch it, even if she was extremely scared.

I also finished reading "Death Train" and was completely trapped by the author and couldn't get out.

So there were only two people who were excitedly waiting for the pit to be opened.

At present, he has brought his mother into the pit.

I originally wanted to ask my father to read it, but that old antique didn't believe that Chinese novels could be that good, and said that reading such things at home would be a waste of his time when he went fishing.

When his friend sent him the translated novel, he couldn't wait to start reading it.

But what surprised him was that the new book had nothing to do with horror and seemed to be a completely new subject.

And he didn't seem very interested.

Theodore knew that Chinese people liked farming, but he was not Chinese, so he had no interest in farming.

He opened the novel with a conflicted mentality. He was conflicted because he was not interested in the subject matter of the new book, but he was reluctant to put it down.

Judging from the introduction, this novel is quite interesting, especially since the background of the world is in the future interstellar space. It should barely be considered a science fiction novel?

He likes reading science fiction novels.

But Theodore was somewhat worried that the novel would not live up to his expectations.

China may be better in other novel themes, but it is still somewhat inferior in the field of science fiction.

Theodore thought about the quality of the author's first two books and decided to go for it blindly.

He must believe in you unconditionally!

When I first started watching, farming did account for a large part of the story. Logically speaking, it was a subject that Theodore was not interested in. Under normal circumstances, he would have quit impatiently halfway through watching it.

However, any lack of interest is insignificant in the face of the writing style and plot.

Good writing and a good plot can always easily arouse the interest of readers.

Theodore didn't even realize when he became so engrossed in reading, or when the sky outside the window darkened. He just stayed in bed reading the novel the whole day.

When someone sent him a message, he would just respond casually, fearing that it would delay his reading time.

Theodore never dreamed that the warm and healing interstellar pastoral style of the early part of the novel was actually written by the author of the "Death Train" that was so sad and despairing.

Does the contrast have to be so great?

It made him want to go farming.

What surprised Theodore even more was that the background structure of the interstellar world in the novel was very complete, as if this world really existed and the author had been there in person.

The description of the technology of that world is even more meticulous and detailed, and it simply pushes the imagination to the extreme.

It constructs a grand worldview, and reading the text feels like the interstellar world is brought right before your eyes.

Theodore's hair stood on end as he watched this, and he felt so refreshed.

This is the feeling after reading the translated English version. Theodore intuitively feels that the textual impact of the Chinese version must be greater.

He secretly vowed to learn Chinese well and read the Chinese version of the novel himself.

I dare not imagine what kind of literary feast that will be.

...

When the notification sound of an email from a friend rang, Theodore withdrew his thoughts and clicked on it impatiently.

Perhaps to outsiders, he is just reading words, but only he and the readers of the novel know what a feast of fantasy it is for them every time they read the novel.

He even felt that he was not reading a novel, but a painting, a painting of the future of mankind.

The author uses words to outline vivid characters, their conversations, lives, daily routines, and even their feelings for family and country, the destiny of mankind, and the humanity displayed by tiny humans in the face of natural and man-made disasters.

So far, Theodore's favorite novel is "Planting".

He didn't know whether the author would create a more outstanding novel in the future, but to him, the meaning of "Farming" was different.

It made Theodore see something that all novels lacked - vitality.

He didn't know if this description was accurate. Human beings were just like the plants in the novel. They had experienced countless major natural and man-made disasters and had been declared extinct countless times, but there was always hope.

When Theodore scrolled to the bottom of the document, his surging emotions choked, and he felt as if the author had ruthlessly kicked him out of the interstellar world.

His wails filled the room again.

The old man downstairs was no longer surprised. Ever since his youngest son became obsessed with some Chinese novels, wailing sounds could be heard from the room from time to time.

Oh, it seemed like there were ghosts howling a while ago.

The mother and son were so scared that they ran around the house.

Only Theodore's mother banged on the door and asked loudly, "Theodore! Is the update of the novel here? I advise you to send a copy to your mother as soon as possible, otherwise you don't want to know the consequences."

"I know mom!"

Theodore reviewed the plot several times before walking out of the room to discuss cooperation with others.

The content of the cooperation is of course the promotion of the novel.

He is a person who is determined to make the novel flourish in his hands.

[The departure of a dog is not important to others. It is not important to the blue planet. It is not important to the interstellar space.

As long as you raise your thinking level, you will find that one less person in the world is no big deal, it's just one less dog.

The premise is that it is not your dog.

Qiao Suiyan knew that separation and death were one of the lessons people had to learn in their lifetime.

She also knew that cats and dogs would not be with her for long.

I also know that when people face important choices, they should remain rational and choose the right one, even if it is wrong.

Qiao Suiyan once saw a debate topic like this: if an art gallery is on fire, should you save the famous paintings or the cats?

When she watched the debate, she was eating instant noodles at the same time.

The initial rational thought was that the famous paintings should be saved.

But while watching that wonderful debate, her thoughts were constantly jumping around. Sometimes she felt that this was right, and sometimes she felt that what was said here also made sense.

In the end, she simply stopped worrying about it, thinking that this matter would definitely not happen to her, and it would be enough for her to be a bystander and marvel at the debate.

Qiao Suiyan never expected that the bullet from the past would hit him right in the middle of his eyebrows at this moment.

She faces the same choice, but with a much greater disparity.

Faced with a choice that anyone would know how to make.

But this is not a debate, she is not a spectator, she is the one making the choice.

That's her dog. That's her family.

That was the only animal that could speak when she first entered this world and was unable to integrate into it.
