Chapter 605 People in Line

"Ahem..."

Shen Xin coughed heavily twice and took a deep breath.

From the lounge of Jiman Bookstore, he glanced at the lobby of the bookstore. There was already a long queue inside, and even the outside of the store was full of people standing neatly.

"There are a lot of people." Shen Xin laughed dryly.

"It can't be helped. Some people have already lined up at six or seven o'clock in the morning. The usual book signing is not like this..." The store manager smiled wryly, and he rarely saw such a scene.

Shen Xin glanced at the clock hanging on the wall, and it was 11 o'clock in just over 10 minutes.

"How about, let's start now? It's a bit cold today. It's not good for your health if you wait outside."

It didn't rain today, but it was cloudy and the wind was blowing. If you stood outside, it would be a bit cold.

"Okay, then, shall we start now?" The store manager nodded.

Start early and end early, if the time is too long, the road will be congested.

"Wait!" Wang Wenhong stopped Shen Xin.

Shen Xin turned around and saw Wang Wenhong handing over a cup of brewed medicine, "Drink this before going out."

"ah?"

Shen Xin frowned and grinned.

Given the choice, he really doesn't want to drink the stuff.

"It's true for you, too. You've had a cold for almost a week, and you haven't recovered yet." Wang Wenhong complained, "You don't listen to the doctor at all."

"Wrong! Cough... I'm already cured. I had a runny nose before, but I caught a cold again. Now I have a cough." Shen Xin retorted.

"Shut up! Drink the medicine first!" Wang Wenhong stuffed the cup into Shen Xin's hand, and Shen Xin could only hold his nose and drink the medicine.

The store manager came to the lobby of the bookstore and informed the people who bought the books to line up.

The customers who were still whispering immediately quieted down and lined up neatly.

Seeing Shen Xin coming to the hall, someone immediately shouted: "Teacher Shen!"

"Mr. Shen, long time no see!"

"Teacher Shen, you must pay attention to your body!"

"I...I...must sign for me, Mr. Shen..."

"Mr. Shen, I'm your book friend..."

"Mr. Shen, "Soul of Chess"...Can I sign "Soul of Chess"? I am the full version!"

Not one or two people shouted, but sixty to seventy percent of the people greeted Shen Xin.

Shen Xin could hear some questions, but Shen Xin couldn't hear some questions, so she had to ask Wang Wenhong to find a microphone.

"Hello, everyone. Although I have never met you before, I have already connected with you through comics, so here, I would like to thank you for coming here on purpose despite the cold. As for the body, there have been some problems recently. I have a cold, but it's not a big problem. If you take a little rest for two days, you should recover, so you don't need to worry about it.

"Actually, I have long wanted to meet with you, but the work has been serialized and I have no time to spare. Therefore, I cherish this opportunity very much. As for the autograph, whether it is "Steel Refining" or "Soul of Chess" Or "Y's", these are fine, and there is no need to buy comics on the spot, the above is all I want to talk about. If you have any questions, you can also talk to me alone."

"Time is limited today, I will try my best." After speaking, Shen Xin took a deep breath, "Then, next, let's start signing."

In the hall, there was a lot of applause, and at the same time, some people asked them to take care of their bodies and minds.

Wang Wenhong held his forehead helplessly.

Teacher Shen is like this again... When I see readers, I forget everything...

What is only signed for 800 copies, what is only signed for 5 hours, when the time comes, there will be countless things to do.

Fortunately, "Steel Refining" will be closed next week. At that time, Mr. Shen can also recuperate from his illness and take a rest by the way.

"Shop manager, just watch the time, and it's almost time to withdraw..." Wang Wenhong said in a low voice, "Don't make Teacher Shen too tired."

"Well, I know." The store manager nodded, seeing many readers queuing up with a whole set of books, he felt a little distressed for Shen Xin.

Whether it is strength, image, or age,

Shen Xin is the best among domestic authors.

Originally, Ye Hexu had a good image, but he was too short, which deducted a lot of points from him.

The clerks pushed the carts and delivered the prepared comics to the stalls. Before they were put on the stalls, they were divided by readers.

Not only the 18th volume of "Steel Refining", but also other comics of "Steel Refining", as well as "Soul of Chess". Most of the comics placed on the counter are taken by readers.

Shen Xin sent a reader away, and before she could catch her breath, another reader put five copies of "Smelting Steel" in front of Shen Xin.

"Ms. Shen, please." A reader clasped his hands together, smiling, but worried.

Shen Xin nodded slightly. This reader seemed to be fifteen or sixteen years old.

"Okay...don't you have class today?"

"Hmm. But your chance to sign a book today is really rare..."Equivalent exchange", right? If you want something, you will lose another part." The reader rubbed his nose.

equivalent exchange...

Shen Xin smiled wryly in her heart. This rule, which is regarded as "truth" in the world of "Smelting Steel", seems to have meaning in reality.

After signing a few comics, the reader was very grateful, turned around, and couldn't wait to take out the phone.

"Hey, brother, let me tell you, I just talked to Teacher Shen..."

"..."

Before Shen Xin had time to sigh, the next reader put three more copies of "Smelting Steel" on the table.

Wang Wenhong looked at Shen Xin who flicked his fingers and continued to sign, feeling really heartbroken.

"Is it the same for other cartoonists who sign books here?" Wang Wenhong asked.

"Of course not." The store manager shook his head and denied, "Most of the other cartoonists have one copy, and there are not a few. But it is rare like today, where you buy four or five copies at a time."

"Why?"

"So far, Shen Xin has only sold books a few times, and he has never signed for "ComicFuture". Who knows when Mr. Shen will sign next time? Also make up, and, just now, Teacher Shen also let go of the words, everyone knows that the opportunity is rare." The store manager explained.

"..."

Wang Wenhong rolled his eyes depressedly, but he had to agree with what the store manager said.

In the future, if you ask Shen Xin to sign and sell books, you really need to be more careful.

Wang Wenhong looked at Shen Xin again, and found that she coughed twice, so he immediately went into the room and made another pack of cold medicine.

He glanced at the clock on the wall, more than two hours had passed.

I really wish time would pass faster.

Outside the Jiman Bookstore, the wind gradually picked up, and the weather seemed to be getting colder again.

Zuo Yuan held tightly the 18th volume of "Steel Refining", which he bought, followed the crowd in front of him, took a small step forward, and finally entered the bookstore.

Don't look at just taking a small step, but he immediately warmed up a bit.

Although the queue ahead is still very long, there should be enough time to meet Shen Xin.

Suddenly, Zuo Yuan felt a little excited.
