The 1974 edition of Agatha Christie's masterpiece The Orient Express ** Case is one of the most popular. It's been repeated many times over the years, but what I love the most is the old version. Exquisite design and rigorous logic have long been the eternal memory of a generation.
Grandma Christie has created a typical character in the minds of the public: greasy hair, beard, short stature, with a bit of funny, very similar to Chaplin. He has a sharp eye for everything around him, which fills his not-so-striking mind with sagacity. His name was Poirot, the great detective, a man from Belgium.
The Orient Express ** Case is considered to be another masterpiece of the famous police detective Poirot, however, it also has some differences.
A carriage was packed with all sorts of people, and our Poirot had no bed to sleep in because he had to attend to business. In the end, Poirot was so fond of the great detective that our train president, Mr. Booker, let him live here. Sure enough, being famous is convenient. Of course, the arrival of this great detective also surprised the people in the carriage.
Soon, a wealthy American man, Ratchet, came to Poirot and asked him to be his personal bodyguard, and the payment was acceptable. Poirot did not agree, he had enough money.
Let's look at the distribution of passengers in this car: the third section was brought by Mrs. Harbart from the United States;Marstman, an English servant of the Reichette family, and an Italian man named Forscarelli lived on "4-5";6-7 is McQueen, who is Richett's American aide;Room 8-9 is the German maid Schmidt, daughter of Princess Dragomirov. Carriages 10-11 were inhabited by the English woman Church de Benham and the Swedish Lady of OlssonCount Andreni and his wife in Hungarian Embassy, in carriages 12 and 13;Dragomirov, the princess of **, was in carriage number 14. In the 15 carriages sat British Lieutenant Colonel Abatet, who was on his way to work in IndiaIn the 16 carriages sat an American named Hardeman.
Originally, it was a good thing, but when they woke up, they found two things that gave them headaches. The second thing is that Rechett, a wealthy man adjacent to Poirot, was wounded twelve wounds of varying degrees and unfortunately died.
Poirot finally shows up after a series of meticulous and serious research. According to the investigation, Rashett is behind the abduction of Armstrong's youngest daughter. The truth of the matter is that the Armstrong family committed suicide after Armstrong's youngest girl, Daisy, was kidnapped and **. The maid in the house was blamed and also jumped from the upper stairs to prove her innocence.
Through the investigation, all of them had a close relationship with the victims. Mrs. Harbart was the grandmother of young Daisy;The second son and second child of Madame Harbart were the second son of Countess Andrény;Mrs. Hubart and Daisy's godmother, Dragomirov was her close friend;Lieutenant Colonel Abate was a friend and admirer of Armstrong;Miss de Benham has a new romance with Lieutenant Colonel Abbat. The driver in Armstrong's case was Forscarelli;Mrs. Olsson was Daisy's nanny. Pierre, the conductor, is the father of Susanna, a maid who committed suicide in the Armstrong family, and Susanna was a lover of Hardeman;McQueen is an admirer of Armstrong's wife, Sonya, and the one he picked up. As for Pierre, he's a conductor and he has a *** that can open doors
Therefore, there are two possibilities for this story: first, the gang killed ** and disappeared from then on;The other is that more than a dozen people commit a crime together. In the film, Booker, the president of the train, once said, "I think the police will definitely support our speculation because this is a gang**." However, Poirot made a detailed analysis of the probabilities and motives of more than a dozen people committing crimes, all according to the common sense of ordinary people.
Which one exactly?
