Actually, there's not much to summarize in the second part, because it's too short.
Generally speaking, I used the method of suspense and tension that I'm personally good at, coupled with character interactions without Shang Jianyao's psychological description, and the overall effect is okay.
The story structure is also very simple, it's just the standard structure of criminal investigation and reasoning literature, but I didn't make too many circles.
As for the important turning points, one is to introduce the most mysterious Saint Teacher, and the other is to bring out some contradictory points from the past and present and present them to everyone. And there is some very important information hidden in it, haha, I won't say much, so as not to spoil it. The answer may not be revealed until the sixth part.
The title of the volume "Unfinished" comes from Schubert's Eighth Symphony "Unfinished", taking the literal meaning, indicating the temporary interruption of many things, while the "Prelude" of the first volume comes from Liszt's symphonic poem, using the connotation of music. The specific symbolic meaning was mentioned in the summary of the first part. In the third part, it will be the well-known "Fate", which is relatively long, at least more than one hundred and fifty chapters.
After that, each part will use classical music as the name. Alas, that's why I said that the title "To the New World" is the most appropriate, because Dvořák's "From the New World" should be most accurately translated as "To the New World." Changing one word slightly connects it with the title of each volume of the whole book.
Okay, the second part is over, and the story officially begins. Because the third part will be relatively long, I'll take another half-day off to work on the outline, for a total of two days off, which means the update will resume at 7 p.m. on Monday.
This is less than the leave taken in the later stages of Lord of the Mysteries, because it's just the beginning, and I'm not so tired yet and need to rest, haha.
Bowing, thank you all.
