I Asked You to Write a Crime Story, Yet You Wrote Germany's 7:1 Victory over Brazil

A writer writing books is only natural. But! What the heck does it mean for an author to experience the contents of his novels firsthand? In a book called God of Gambling, you write Germany beating Brazil 7 to 1. In a book called From Fallen to Virtuous, you write about meeting Xiao Fengxian halfway through the journey. In a book called War, you write about riding horses through Tokyo to admire the cherry blossoms. In a book called Touching Gold, you write about a rice dumpling asking for directions and a ghost asking an immortal. … “Damn, the author’s got something.” “Truth and falsehood, illusion and reality, none of it can be spoken.” “One line from you, one line from me, and Ye Jin Cang will end up in prison sooner or later.” Author Ye Jin Cang: “That really isn’t necessary. I just got released.”
