Mystery Editor

"The Mystery Editor" is a dark suspense novel that turns the "hidden rules of the publishing industry" into murder rules. The down-and-out editor Gu Xiao received a future book manuscript, which accurately predicted the death time, murder weapon and page number of seven "industry enemies"; what's even more frightening is that the author column is blank, but the ISBN actually exists. As the first printing went on the market, the deceased were cashed out one by one, with an error of 0 seconds, and the entire network became a phenomenon-level "living person show". Gu Xiao had to find the author before writing the next chapter, but found that all the clues pointed to a substituted award-winning manuscript in 1997, an unknown author who had jumped off the building, and a second personality that he might have split off. Publishing contracts, copyright pages, marketing plans, and live broadcast barrages have all become murder processes, and every time readers buy a book, they are voting for the next murder. When the last page is blank, reality and fiction are completely misaligned - the real author has not yet appeared, but death has been typed.
