All-rounder Artist-Chapter 723 - 689: The Determination of a Holmes-fanatic_1
Lin Yuan couldn’t possibly be oblivious to the commotion on the internet.
Although he wouldn’t go so far as to look up news about himself, when Lin Yuan surfed the internet, news related to him would easily pop up in an attention-grabbing way:
"Four Maestros Gang Up On Xian Yu!"
"Xian Yu’s Six-Game Winning Streak to Be Ended?"
"Chen Hexuan Forms the Avengers!"
"Will Xian Yu Switch Songs Under Pressure?"
"How Hard Is It to Hit the Charts with a Customized Song?"
"How to Write a Song from a Sherlock Holmes Novel?"
Upon seeing the words "the Avengers," Lin Yuan was stunned for several seconds, thinking something was wrong with the world. He only realized this "Avengers" was not that "Avengers" after he finished reading the news.
Such a misunderstanding.
At this moment, there was a brief knock on the door.
Lin Yuan looked up and recognized the company’s chairman Li Songhua, who had previously sent him a car and tea leaves:
"Chairman?" Find your next read on novelbuddy
"Switching songs?"
Li Songhua asked with a smile.
Lin Yuan shook his head.
To his seemingly unsurprised response, Li Songhua took out a boxed phone with a somewhat resigned expression, "This is a highly secure phone. You should take it and stop using one phone. It’s too easy to log into the wrong account."
"..."
Lin Yuan silently accepted the phone, not mentioning that he actually had two phones already. The mix-up between Xian Yu and Chu Kuang had evidently been guessed by the chairman.
"Thank you."
"Keep going."
Li Songhua turned to leave, then hesitated slightly, "Those four Maestros are all friends of Yang Zhongming and Zheng Jing."
Lin Yuan was taken aback.
Leaving, Li Songhua added, "If they strike in June, it will be inconvenient for others. If you lose to them, it means you were not destined for the twelve consecutive championships."
Lin Yuan remained silent.
So that’s the case.
No wonder when the four Maestros called for revenge, Lin Yuan felt something was off. Everyone didn’t seem to hold such substantial grudges.
Now he understood.
Yang Zhongming and Zheng Jing were helping him secretly. It was better for these four people to make a move than for some more formidable Maestros to act—
Yes.
Lin Yuan had heard music from all four Maestros. If we were to rank them, these four would probably be among the weaker ones. Their stepping forward prevented other Maestros from specifically targeting Lin—with a four-on-one situation.
It was indeed quite dramatic.
With this in mind, Lin Yuan decided to record the song. "The Seventh Chapter of Night" was not easy to sing. Neither Chen Zhiyu nor Sun Yaohuo from the Yu Dynasty would match the style, and the other singers were all female. So this time, Lin Yuan planned to sing it himself. He was confident in mastering the melody of the song, but he needed a woman’s high notes in the middle of the song.
Who should he choose?
After brief hesitation, Lin Yuan called Jiang Kui. She was the most promising female singer in the Yu Dynasty, bound to become a singing queen in the future, so Lin Yuan wanted to help her as much as he could.
Twenty minutes later.
In Lin Yuan’s office, Jiang Kui’s clear voice chimed in, "Teacher Admirable Fish, you wanted to see me?"
"Um."
Lin Yuan looked at Jiang Kui, "Will you record a song with me? You sing the chorus."
This wasn’t a duet.
The part Jiang Kui was responsible for took up only a small fraction of the whole song, more akin to a cameo.
"Sure!"
Not everyone had the opportunity to collaborate with Xian Yu!
Jiang Kui nodded vigorously, her pigtails flaring out as she asked excitedly, "Is it about the Sherlock Holmes song?"
"Um."
"This song..."
Jiang Kui glanced at Lin Yuan and hesitated to speak.
Recently, Lin Yuan had improved his ability to read people’s expressions, "You also feel that this song is not secure enough to compete with?"
Jiang Kui hesitated slightly then said nervously,
"A little bit."
Lin Yuan smiled, "Then listen to the demo."
As he spoke.
Lin Yuan turned on the office stereo.
It was a sample of the song he had finished the night before.
The stereo played a simple melody, and then the vocal came in.
Although this was the most simplified version of the song, it quickly caused a change in Jiang Kui’s expression.
A singer of her caliber has a strong judgment for music.
A minute later.
Lin Yuan looked at a somewhat stupefied Jiang Kui:
"Any questions?"
Jiang Kui instinctively shook her head.
Lin Yuan laughed again: "I’ll give you the lyrics and the music score, take some time to familiarize yourself with it, we’ll record it later."
Jiang Kui nodded vigorously.
...
The recording was somewhat delayed. Because Lin Yuan had high demands for this song, it took a whole week to fully record the song.
During this week.
The grand finale of the novel "The Great Detective Sherlock Holmes" was finally officially released, serving as a prelude to the song release in June.
As expected.

The audience’s acceptance of this ending was much higher than that of "The Final Case", at least it did not cause any riots-
Although everyone’s beloved Watson died, it was believed that this was due to Chu Kuang’s petty jealousy.
He could have written it without killing him off.
On the internet.
Around this official ending, countless readers were engaged in intense discussions.
Within these discussions.
The topic inevitably touched upon Adorable Fish’s new song next month:
"After reading the novel, I feel a sense of loss, suddenly looking forward to Teacher Admirable Fish’s new song, really curious what kind of song he will write for this novel, Sherlock Holmes."
"I thought Teacher Admirable Fish would change the song."
"Looking at Teacher Admirable Fish’s tribe, there doesn’t seem to be any movement, it seems like he doesn’t intend to change the song, it must be for that detestable Chu Kuang."
"It’s also for us, the readers of Sherlock Holmes!"
"I’ve said it before, Teacher Admirable Fish saved Sherlock Holmes’ life, so no matter whether his new song satisfies me or not, I will download it in support!"
"Same here!"
"Teacher Admirable Fish has been so persistent for us fans of Sherlock Holmes, we fans of Sherlock Holmes must repay him!"
"Let’s go, guys!"
"We must let everyone see the influence of Sherlock Holmes!"
"..."
The date was May 31st.
The countdown to the release of "The Seventh Chapter of Night" had already begun.
By the time it was evening, the heads of various music apps had already received the official audio file of "The Seventh Chapter of Night".
"This is the perk of running a music app."
At the headquarters of a company named "Cool Cat Music".
Inside the director’s office.
The man chuckled lightly.
The man had an encrypted music file on his computer called "The Seventh Chapter of Night".
The man’s name was Xu Tao, the director of Cool Cat Music.
"The Seventh Chapter of Night..."
A trace of curiosity flashed across Xu Tao’s eyes as he put on his headphones
As a die-hard fan of "The Great Detective Sherlock Holmes", a fan of Adorable Fish, and a professional musician, Xu Tao was immensely curious about what this song would be like!
What was the reason for Adorable Fish’s insistence on not changing the song in the face of a targeted attack by four maestros?
Was it merely because of Chu Kuang?
Maybe it wasn’t just that.
Smiling, Xu Tao clicked the play button.
