Greetings, everyone!

There are several things that need to be highlighted in this month's advance notice.

Basically… they're all about the side story—*Thriller Paradise: The Halloween Adventure*.

Since the timeline of the main story has also caught up with the side story, I'll start by addressing a bug in the side story…

That is… it seems that Brother Jue in the side story hasn't explicitly revealed his psychic abilities to Ruo Yu. Of course, I hadn't written that when I wrote it a year ago, but over the past year, the plot of the main story has already progressed to that point.

I must apologize for this. Since the side story has been printed and published for quite some time, it's impossible to make changes.

As a meticulous person, I'm most troubled by this kind of irrecoverable bug myself. Please ignore it for the sake of the fact that this bug doesn't have much impact on the plot of the side story.

To be honest, the mood is still depressed when I talk about the side story now.

In the single chapter titled "Thank You All" last June, I said about the side story: "Due to commercial considerations, my creation will be subject to certain restrictions, but I will still do my best to write interesting stories, please rest assured."

In fact, what I originally wanted to create was a story completely unrelated to the main story, a short detective story called *Second-Rate Detective and Cat*.

Unfortunately, my plan was rejected, and I was asked to write a short story with many characters from the main story…

Although it wasn't what I wanted to write, but something I had to write, I still completed it to the best of my ability with a responsible attitude towards my work.

When I submitted the manuscript, I told a friend at Qidian that I could only give this… a score of sixty points.

This score hasn't changed to this day.

However, looking at it from another angle… this regret and helplessness is undoubtedly a very valuable experience.

Creating texts under certain restrictions and reaching a certain level is a professional quality that a professional writer should possess. Although the side story was difficult to write, it was beneficial to my writing career and a good experience.

…………

Getting back to the topic, let's talk about this month's plot.

The outline of the S2 quarter-finals of the Peak Duel is ready in my mind, and many team battles are about to be staged.

Feng Bujue's true identity and abilities will gradually emerge, but I don't think it's too early to reveal them completely…

Because I plan to achieve full attendance in July, the plot will unfold relatively quickly, so please wait and see.

In addition, starting this month, Qidian's monthly ticket system seems to have changed again, and there are some strange settings such as the popularity list. Anyway, I can't figure out those messy settings.

Here, I would like to ask you to vote for those authors who need it. Don't give me monthly tickets just because I do daily updates, which is taken for granted by others. It will lower the lower limit of the industry if it spreads. I don't want to become a cancer in the industry, thank you.

…………

Okay, I've talked about some rather heavy topics and given up some integrity, so let's relax at the end.

Write a poem, write a poem~

There must be wind, there must be meat; there must be hot pot, there must be fog; there must be beauties, there must be donkeys~

So…

The prosperous world is harmonious and prosperous, and the rich families hide wine and meat.

Straw dogs on the chopping board swim in copper pots, and boiling water steams up fog and dust.

Yingying Yanyan chases after the playboys, and snakes, rats, jackals, and wolves run rampant in the wilderness.

The poetry writer on the donkey scolds those who go first, and the madman's nonsense is not known to be true.
