In the final finals, Lin Xiao chose "Murder on the Nile", the original author of this novel is also the author of "Murder on the Orient Express", like "Murder on the Orient Express", this novel is equally exciting, and the ending is also unexpected.

After some simplification by himself, Lin Xiao told this story in front of the judges, because the previous "Murder on the Orient Express" had left an unparalleled impression on them, this time, "Murder on the Nile" immediately attracted all their attention, and it also became the first work to be tested.

"Tragedy on the Nile" is written about Miss Linette Ridgeway and her friend Jackie. Jacqueline. Belfort's lover, Simon Doyle, is married, and they go on their honeymoon on a luxury cruise ship from England to the Nile River in Egypt. This yacht carried gentry, celebrities, and fallen aristocrats from all over the world...... It was supposed to be a glamorous and romantic luxury tour, but a series of murders on a yacht turned the entire cruise into a "death trip".

In terms of writing technique, "Tragedy on the Nile" uses murdered corpses to create suspense.

The millionaire's heiress Linette was shot in the head and died on her honeymoon yacht, and her £50,000 pearl necklace was missing, suggesting it was a murder for money.

While Poirot was looking for clues to solve the case, Linette's maid Louise Bourget was killed in the room, holding a thousand-franc dime in her hand, apparently she had discovered the murderer and was blackmailed and killed.

Thankfully, Mrs. Otterborn was the only eyewitness to the murder. But just as she was about to name the murderer, she was killed by a bullet outside the window.

In the end, Detective Poirot uncovers the truth of this bizarre twist and turn, and he recounts some clues that are usually overlooked, such as: drinking "muddy" alcohol on the night of the murder; a mantle with a spear hole found in the Nile; Linnett's dresser has a nail polish bottle with red ink and a capital J carved in blood on the wall...... Poirot painstakingly sorts through these seemingly unrelated and intricate clues, and finally deduces that Jacqueline and Simon conspired to kill Linnet. This gives the reader a sense of surprise. In the end, as in other detective novels, the real murderers Jacqueline and Simon commit suicide.

The story is very average, not too bright, but the writing technique is very novel, and the series of serial murders is enough to whet the reader's appetite.

In fact, at the beginning of this story, many readers can easily guess the murderer, but as the case develops, the murderer Simon turns out to be the most unsuspecting person! Readers will follow the story to clear Simon's suspicion step by step, but in the final ending, Poirot magically proves that the murderer is Simon.

The classic technique of this school of Ben Ge and the strange atmosphere of the reformists, as well as the ending of the peaks and turns, are really exquisite.

As usual, the judges still watched Lin Xiao's work first, "Murder on the Orient Express" gave them too many surprises, and this time, they watched this "Murder on the Nile" with great expectations.

When they finished reading the whole story, they couldn't help but let out an exclamation!

The story still surprises them, and although it's not as bizarre as Murder on the Orient Express, it can make them nervous, and the characters are more sophisticated.

When setting up the characters, she tried to set up a different female image, so that Jackie became a new type of woman who subverted the traditional definition of female image, she has an independent personality, is a sharpshooter, and is a very talented actor.

It can also be seen from here that the awakening of women's consciousness makes women no longer accessories of male criminals or the image of "crazy women" in traditional novels, but portrays the delicate and meticulous thoughts of women themselves from their own female perspectives.

In this novel, you can also find the common female figures in traditional patriarchal literature: angelic female figures, such women are pure and beautiful, male ideal women but lack their own reality, demonized women are greedy and jealous, women who are considered by men to have been psychologically distorted, Cornelia and Linnet are typical "angels" and "devils" incarnations.

It is because Jackie loves so much that it forms the main line of the story and extends the storyline. During the conversation, Jackie said four times in a row, "I'm going to die!" ", violating the quantitative norms of the principle of cooperation in conversation and the theory of speech acts. A "I'm going to die!" It is enough to show the intention to the other party, four "I will die!" There is a "meaning beyond words", and the warmth of human nature is felt between the lines, and Jackie loves Simon too much to express it.

In "Tragedy on the Nile", Jackie pursues compromised love from beginning to end, and can do anything for the stupid Simon, even if he is in a raging fire and turns to ashes, like a persistent moth that pounces on the fire of love without hesitation. This storyline helps readers understand the whole story from a human perspective and gain a deeper understanding of its meaning. Jackie's love makes people angry and mourn his misfortune.

After reading the whole story, the judges have a strong premonition in their hearts that this "Murder on the Nile" will be the pinnacle of mystery fiction like "Murder on the Orient Express"!

These are two works that far surpass the mystery novels of the same era, and the technique is extremely delicate, if you don't look at the author's name, they can't imagine that they are from the hands of Chinese people!

This Chinese man named Lin Xiao will soar to the sky and become the world's top mystery novelist!

These two works will also be world-famous, translated and published in the languages of various countries, and then remade into movies and put on the big screen......

These are two works that can fully win the championship of the international competition, and it should be an honor for them to be here now, who have witnessed the birth of these two great works!

The emergence of these two mystery novels can be said to be a milestone opening in the world of mystery novels! They lived through the moment, they witnessed history......

Although I haven't seen other works yet, in the hearts of all the judges, "Murder on the Nile" has become the champion of this exchange, and they don't believe that there will be more exciting works than this exchange!

Lin Xiao, a young man who has never heard of it, is a blockbuster here, and has come up with two works in a row that are enough to make the world pay attention, and soon, maybe tomorrow, a dazzling star will rise in the world literary circle......

Eh, I recommend another book, the fantasy "Tianxuan Shengwu" [bookid=3513656, bookname="Tianxuan Shengwu"]
