death and other details
Luxury cruises, ** happens, the passengers have their own ghosts, ** hidden in it. Will anyone else die? The truth hidden behind **, maybe it's justA corner puzzle of an unknown conspiracy.
Murder in a closed room
Late at night,Imokin(Violet Beane) sneaked into a guest room, glanced at the sleeping man on the bed, and picked up a watch that was placed on the bedside.
The watch glass split apart in an instant, and after doing all this, Imogen seemed to let out a foul breath and gently exited the room.
And so it isPranks, Imogen is not just for himself.
In the daytime, the owner of the watchKeith(played by Michael Garadis), because the waiter accidentally hit him, he was furious and spat fragrant.
The kind-hearted Imogen was so upset that seeing this scene, he decided to give birth to the poor waiter.
She finds Keith, and it's a diss when she goes up.
What I didn't expect was that Keith, who seemed to be vulgar and rude, arrogant, and full of nouveau riche temperament, was also first-class.
The passengers on this cruise ship,They all came to attend the retirement ceremony of the wealthy Collier, and the one who is invitedEither rich or expensive.
And the reason why you, Miss Imogin, can only be here is because you are the future ** member of the Collier familyAnna(Lauren Patten) is a good best friend. A "mixed circle" can be nobler than me.
Keith replied lightly, leaving Imogen speechless. Indeed,Having lost her mother at a young age, she was taken in by the Collier family, although has been living in a privileged environment, butShe also understands her role and situation.
However, Imojin still couldn't swallow this breath, so the first scene of the gold watch with a broken heel occurred.
Although it wasThe surveillance cameras in the hallway captured it clearly, but Imogen doesn't care, after all, there is still Dojin's best friend to support him, and it's just a prank, and it's a big deal to lose money.
Imogin, who was secretly happy in his heart, was also full of peach blossom luck that night, and successfully "captured" a handsome guy.
After a ***, just as the two were enjoying breakfast in bed, the news of the explosion came.
Keith was killed in the room, the death was very miserable.
The harpoon gun pierced Keith's abdomen, pinning him to the wall.
Imogen panicked, she had been to the deceased's room last night. Even if she hadn't killed anyone, she would have been treated as suchThe main suspect, because no one could prove what she was doing in the room.
And most importantly, except for Imogin,No one had been in Keith's room that night - it was a "locked room murder".
Last night's bed mateJules(Hugo Diego Garcia) is the head of security on the cruise ship, and Imogen recalls the code that Jules pressed at that time. Flashing into the monitoring room, she needs to delete the ** record of her entry and exit from Keith's room to get out of trouble.
Looking at the screen, Imogin's face was incredible. It turned out that the ** image of 7 minutes and 23 seconds before and after she entered and exited the room was unexpectedlyhas been deleted.
What shocked Imokin even more was that,A man appeared in her room。The deleted ** is stored in the USB flash drive in his hand.
Who is this man, and is he doing it for blackmail, threats, or something else.
Interpol will board the ship within 24 hours to investigate**If ** is exposed, then Imogen will be the only suspect.
Imogen didn't know how to prove his innocence, and when he hesitatedBut the man said to her, "Let me help you."
The world inside and outside
With key evidence in hand, the man who found Imogen calledRufus(Mandy Patinkin), once wasThe best private investigator in the world.
Rufus had been acquainted with her since she was a child, and he was in charge at the timeInvestigate the case of Imogin's mother being **.
At that time, they were also teachers and friends, and Imogen showed itExtraordinary memory and keen observation, as well as age-inconsistentExcellent reasoning skills, even Rufus thinks she's fit to be a detective.
However, the investigation of Imogin's mother's case did not go well, and the investigation ended with a name-Victor Sams, and I can't look it up anymore.
In the end, the case was closed, and Imogen felt that Rufus had betrayed his trust, so he hated him for many years.
This cruise ship encounter encountered a new ** case。It seemed like a coincidence, but Rufus stopped talking and denied the claim.
The reason is that the victimsKeithIt's not the arrogant and greasy nouveau riche on the surface, heThe real identity is Rufus's assistant.
They boarded the ship together to solve the mystery that had not been solved eighteen years ago, that is, the ** case of Imogin's mother who was killed by the bombing.
Before Interpol arrived, he temporarily authorized Rufus, a former private investigator, to investigate the case.
Imogen also took itDoubt and a new hope, agreeing to help Rufus deal with the murder in front of him.
The two are indeed seamless in investigating the case, and Imogen once again showed his talent for reasoning, with easeSolve the puzzles of the "secret room".
**Hide in the food truck and enter the room, and hide back in the food truck again after the killing. When the guest room was cleaned the next day, the service staff pushed the car away, ** to escape, and left no traces.
The murder method has been cracked, butWho is the real culprit?
Rufus's investigation went very poorly, and the wealthy and powerful passengers were extremely uncooperative.
The lawyer of the Collier family even said directly that he wanted to talk to my boss, unless there was a summons, or he could only serve with international gestures.
The rest of the ship, including the ship's staff, the elder Collier and his wife, the upcoming governor of Washington state, the black pastor in charge of political kingmaking, the incompetent son of the Collier family, Anna, who is bent on reviving the family but cannot be trusted by her father, and the Chinese Chen family, who are about to inject billions of dollars into Collier Enterprises, and so on.
These people are all looking at himEach has a heart, full of ghosts.
Keith did mess with a lot of people during his lifetime.
spoke disrespectfully and humiliated Anna in public.
* Anna's wifeLayla(Pardis Saremi).
Governors were also threatened.
I don't know if this is the script he and Rufus agreed upon, but it seemsA lot of people have a motive to kill Keith.
With the continued efforts of Rufus and Imogin, and the intervention of Interpol on boarding,The real culprit was forced to surface.
However,The murder case in the locked room of the "Table World".It's over, but it's far from over.
Layla, who had disappeared for a long time, suddenly appeared in front of Rufus and said a name that shocked him immenselyVictor Sams
EverThe murder of Imogin's mother, nowCruise Ship Locked Room Murder Case,It's all therePoint to the same person
** Case of the "Inner World".It's about to begin, and the brain-burning journey continues.
Blizzard Lodge
It was mentioned earlierBlizzard LodgeIn fact, it is a mode commonly used in reasoning literature or film and television works, also known as the "island mode", which refers to a group of people gathering in a relatively closed environment, unable to contact the outside world due to special circumstances, and all of them are temporarily unable to leave.
At the same time, some bizarre events will occurThe members died one after another, and ** was among them.
And there will be one of these peopleDetectiveis responsible for peeling back the cocoon and finding the real culprit from the reasoning.
There are many such mystery works, and the most well-known one is Japanese anime"Detective Conan".

Among them, "Murder in a Ski Villa", "Murder of a Magic Enthusiast", "Murder of a Bandage Monster in a Mountain Villa", "Serial Murder of a Luxury Passenger Ferry", etc., are all such story settings.
And the drama "The Case of the Secret Room at Sea", which sets the **case in the guest room of a cruise ship in the depths of the ocean, can be said to be the "secret room" in the "secret room", which is indeed appetizing.
The world inside and outsideDouble-line narrative, "case within a case".'s plot is also similar to Hulu's previous production of "The End of the World**". But compared with the avant-garde creativity of the former, this play is more "retro".
The Case of the Sea Secret Room ** looks more like a tribute to the master of reasoningAgatha christie.
Agatha Christie, a famous British female detective and playwright).
"On the Nile" Orient Express ** Case".and other masterpieces have long been famous all over the world, and Agatha's "Blizzard Villa" model is indeed incomparable.
Based on Agatha's name**, it was released in 2015British drama "No One Survives"., is the favorite of many grandma fans, with a score of 8 by more than 210,000 people on Douban3 points.

Similar to these classic works, in the play "Sea Secret Room** Case".The portrayal of a group portrait, ** cases are connected with people from all walks of life, andThe consideration of human nature reflects the strengths of old-school suspense and reasoning dramas.
Imojin as a child and as an adultThe manifestation of dual space-time substitution, which is also silky enough, these are all plus points for this show.
Let's talk about the shortcomings.
First of all, although the plot is smooth, it is not compact enough, and some of the editing is too fragmented, which makesThe suspenseful atmosphere is greatly reduced.
Secondly, with the duration of the first 4 episodes, a ** case was solved. But the L-point shots of love that are either "fragrant" or "spicy" appear five or six times. Perhaps this can be understood as the screenwriter and director want to show the absurdity of high society through this, but thisIn fact, it has no effect on the plot advancement.
Especially the couple of Anna and LaylaIf you simply regard the ** relationship as an eye-catching gimmick, it is really unnecessary.
In recent years, Hulu has indeed produced a lot of Agatha-style suspense and reasoning dramas, and I hope that this time, the follow-up episodes of "Sea Secret Room** Case" will not disappoint the audience.
In the play, Rufus said:The details in the crime are important. Only by removing the fog on the surface can we reach the truth. Mystery story"Reasonable, unexpected".The ending often seems simple, but it is really not easy to do.
More often than not,Reasoning is not simply the same as "reversing and reversing and reversing", the key lies in the subtle stories themselvesThis is also a subtle spiritual touch between the audience and the creators.
