[…… One or two of your old acquaintances are coming—catching up together. Pen % Fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info]

[…… One or two of your old colleagues from the army are coming, too - everyone wants to catch up. ]

Basically, you can set the tone of the opening, introduce Sogir Island, and then write about a person who received an invitation from Sogir Island, these people are all different identities, there are veterans, there are ordinary clerks, there are judges, and there are second-tone doctors.

One thing Kokoshi Saburo noticed that the invitation letters written, some people have different names, and all the letters, are all vague, don't say anything about this as an intuition of a reasoning writer, this even ordinary people know that there is a problem.

"Emily Brent, Vera Czethorne, Dr. Armstrong, Anthony Marston, Old Judge Vograve, Philip Lombard, General MacArthur, the housekeeper and his wife, Mr. Rogers and Mrs. Rogers, these are the characters of the book, eight guests, two servants. ”

In less than 10,000 words at the beginning, ten characters appeared.

When you have an opinion about a person, you feel a problem with anything about him, so seeing the opening of "No One Survives", Saburo Kokoshi has an opinion.

"Don't talk about reasoning, even novels have a big taboo, you can't put out all the characters. ”

The first chapter of "No One Left Alive" is divided into several subsections, each of which is the reaction of these people after receiving the letter, and then they rushed over by transportation.

For example, Miss Emily Brent is very old-fashioned, she sits with her chest straight, she is sixty-five years old, she is still neat, and her old-fashioned colonel father is very particular about it, and looks down on those who are casual.

However, just as Crooked Nuts think that Chinese names are difficult to remember, most Chinese people also think that Crooked Nuts have similar names, and they will definitely not be able to remember nine names at the beginning.

It's like a mediocre start, after reading the second chapter, until these people move in, it's only seven points.

Speaking of which, "No One Survives" is one of Agatha's two pinnacle books, which can be described in two sentences - "a representative work of British and American detective novels", "the pioneer of impossible closed room crimes, and the terminator", and the only book in the history of detective fiction that has sold more than 100 million yuan.

To get back to the point, although the simplified version of "No One Survives" is not as good as "The Little Prince", there are eleven or twelve kinds, "The Strange Case of the Lonely Island", "The Eleventh Indian", and "No One Survives" are all him.

Han Shi has seen five versions, three are translated by Fu Taotao, to be honest, the flaws are a bit big, this version is translated by Han Shi himself, not to say how good it can be translated, but it will definitely not lag behind.

It's not like John Acton's A Theory of Liberal History, published in 2011 by Yilin Press, which really captures the essence of the translation.

"The History of Freedom" is really freedom, reading this book is like floating in a garden of freedom, sentences and sentences are full of freedom, Nima does not match the words at all, God is free.

Translate books from Yilin Publishing House and buy them carefully, because there are many translations that are like this.

"No One Survives" is not exciting in the front, because it is to pave the way for the wonderful aftermath, eight guests stay in the luxurious room of Sogil Island, and find that the mysterious Mr. Owen, the host who invited them, still does not show up, but only hires Mr. and Mrs. Rogers to entertain everyone.

The next moment, starting with a recording, the wonderful part came-

[……

You are charged with the following crimes: Edward George Armstrong, on March 14, 1925, you caused the death of Louisa Marie Chriss.

Emily Caroline Brent, you are fully responsible for the death of Beatrice Taylor on November 5, 1931.

William Henry Bloor, October 10, 1928, was the one who led to the death of James Stephen Landau.

……]

The eight guests, all of whom were accused of serious crimes, were coldly recorded, as if they came from hell, and judging from the reactions of several people in the book, it was possible that the things that were published in the recordings were true.

Immediately, it was found out that it was Rogers, the hired butler, who had played the tape, but the butler was following the instructions of the mysterious Mr. Owen.

The next content, because after all this, began to talk to each other, and of course the lead of the conversation was Vogreve, who was the judge.

Two more strange things happened:

One of them, the hired Rogers, had never seen Owen.

Second, one of the eight guests was an impersonator who was actually an investigator hired by Owen to investigate the other guests.

Finally, there is another Mr. Owen who doesn't know if he has discovered the mystery or not, and Ulrik Norman Owen is a woman according to the investigators.

"It's still a bit suspenseful, but it feels like it's tricky. Kokoshi Saburo said.

was accused of being a mysterious figure who didn't show up, but it's natural for people to justify themselves, so they began to explain.

The judge said that the sinner deserved it, the doctor said that he had done his best to save him, and the veteran said that his former subordinates died on the battlefield because of an accident, etc., in short, they all put aside the crime.

"A natural secret room, completely insulated from the outside world. Kokoshi Saburo recognized this kind of drama, and the book said that there were no boats going out of Sogil Island, and the only way to contact was that there was food delivery every morning, which meant that he had to be stranded on the island tonight.

There were ten little dolls on the table, and there were ten of them at the same time, as well as the weird children's song I had talked about earlier.

Death, like a crow hanging in the sky, tearing at its mouth with an ugly cry, descended.

Marston, who was drinking brandy, died for no reason, nothing wrong, but for no reason, and he still died of ****** when he was detected.

Brandy is added to the ******, what is hydride, this thing is the king of poison in detective novels often appears.

And what can kill people is ****** potassium, cyanidation and hydrocyanic acid.

And most of them use the first one, why this kind of thing is so revered by murderers, the reason is simple.

Anyone who studies forensic medicine knows that in the "Forensic Toxicology Analysis", the lethal dose of ****** is 50-250 mg, the ****** toxic blood concentration is about 0.5 μg/ml, and the lethal blood concentration is ≥ 1 μg/ml.

To be more precise, a ****** the size of a grain of rice is enough to kill people.

This portable and powerful poison is definitely a must-have for murderous travel!

However, after the cause of death was determined, a suspicion appeared in the book...... (To be continued.) )
