The next day, the game continued, and this time the Huaxia delegation determined a plan to take Lin Xiao as the main player and the rest as the deputies.

Coming to the Opera House, today's competition determines what kind of achievements the Chinese delegation can achieve, and also determines whether the Chinese literary circle can make further progress in the world literary circle.

Yang Jian has no score in his heart, except for Lin Xiao, the rest of the delegation are not sure at all, after all, Huaxia has never published a decent mystery novel, in fact, it is also due to cultural differences, which leads to the fact that Huaxia's mystery novels are not on the same track as the world's mystery novels.

Lin Xiao has actually prepared some mystery novels, including the Sherlock Holmes detective collection, and he believes that he will be able to achieve a good result today.

Today's process is very concise, after all, if you want to write a novel on the spot today, you can write 60,000 or 70,000 words at most in eight hours, and Lin Xiao has screened and revised some reasoning novels with a large number of words last night, and in addition to ensuring that the story is exciting and the necessary pits are not modified, the length of the novel has been greatly simplified.

After a simple on-site preparation, the jury representatives began to ask questions, this time the question was very interesting, there was only one requirement! As long as most of the judges don't guess the murderer before the story ends, it's considered to be passed! And there are no specific requirements!

Such a question is not difficult to say, and it is not easy to say that it is simple.

This is a bit of a big look at the jury's brains, to say that this kind of requirement, the most suitable is the declension technique, the reader's attention is attracted to the weird and tense atmosphere, and ignore the clues to solve the case, but for these experienced judges, I don't know if the effect is good.

However, these are all secondary, when the topic comes out, you have to hurry up to conceive, hurry up and write, and complete a mystery novel in eight hours, which is simply too difficult! Without prior preparation, it is estimated that no one will be able to do it.

Mystery novels are about strong logic, even if there are loopholes, they must be imperceptible, otherwise they are unreasonable everywhere, then what kind of reasoning novel is it, and the untenable truth is not a reason, but a strong word.

After hearing the question, Lin Xiao passed the story in his mind and selected a story, he showed a confident smile on his face, turned on the fast entry machine in front of him, and his fingers began to tap quickly on the keyboard.

The people of the Huaxia delegation saw Lin Xiao and quickly had an idea, and put it into action, and their thoughts were all alive, but they were not the same.

Yang Jian was excited and worried, he knew Lin Xiao's previous on-site creation, his thinking was quick, his thoughts were weird, he was amazed, so he was very excited when he saw Lin Xiao start writing, but he also had a trace of worry, after all, Lin Xiao wrote a serious 800 mystery novel for the first time, and he didn't know if he could reach the professional level.

The mood of the rest of the Huaxia delegation is not as complicated as Yang Jian, most of them are optimistic about Lin Xiao, after all, the topic this time is too demanding, and it is not okay to think about it well, while Lin Xiao is known for his quick talent, and he has taken the lead in this regard.

Indeed, the people in the delegations of other countries are still frowning and thinking, and have not begun to write. They were thinking that the story and the requirements of the title did not match, after all, they had to raise the difficulty of the story to the highest before they dared to participate, and this time it was different from the preliminary round, and the result this time was very important.

The story Lin Xiao chose is "Murder on the Orient Express"!

The original book of this book is more than 100,000 words, but after Lin Xiao's pre-processing, it has been shortened to 70,000 words, and Lin Xiao has removed some useless conversations and scene descriptions, which has just reached a little more than 70,000 words, which has been modified by Lin Xiao's repeated calculations, and it is determined that the weirdness of the story is retained, and it can be completed within eight hours.

"Murder on the Orient Express" is definitely the top existence in mystery novels in Lin Xiao's view, there is no first, there is no second, it is impossible to say that it is the best, because in Lin Xiao's opinion, "Sherlock Holmes" is as good, but the ending of "Murder on the Orient Express" is definitely the weirdest and most difficult to guess!

Just in line with the topic this time, Lin Xiao has already determined that it is certain to get a high score and advance this time!

"Murder on the Orient Express" tells the story of the great detective Poirot who has an urgent matter to take the Orient Express to London, England, but here, Lin Xiao changed it to Luo Shanji who went to the United States.

As a professional habit, there was a very bad impression on Rachel when he observed the passengers around him, and this Rachelt tried to turn to Poirot for help and told him that he had received a threatening letter.

Sure enough, Ratchet dies the following night, and it just so happens that the train is stuck in the snow and can't get out, so Poirot is tasked with solving the case.

However, when Poirot investigated, he found that all of them had two or more alibi certificates, while the old lady next door to the deceased kept insisting that the murderer had escaped through her box, and others testified that they had seen a woman in a red nightgown and a stranger dressed as a conductor haunting the car.

Later, the deceased was proven to be a heinous criminal - the leader of a kidnapping organization that kidnapped young children for ransom and often tore up tickets, but escaped justice by his own means.

The only piece of evidence left at the scene that Poirot valued was unburned scraps of paper, and Poirot decided that the case was revenge for the "Armstrong abduction case"!

The process of solving the case is extremely exciting, and the conclusion is that Poirot has cracked the true identities of all the passengers one by one, except for Poirot, his friends and the medical examiner, the rest are Avengers!

The most exciting thing about the murder of the Orient Express is definitely its ending - it breaks the ruthless mystery show of previous mystery novels - Polo gives two conclusions: yes, the murderer is an outsider, disguised as a conductor to get on the train, and after the murder, he hides in the old lady's box and then disposes of all the murder weapons and clothes, and gets off the train in time (this is a case that happened when the train arrives at the station), of course, the suspicion still exists, and it is not so convincing.

The second conclusion: the murderer only used sleeping pills to put the deceased to sleep at first, and then created a time for the crime to occur, and then each stabbed the deceased once! (A total of 12 knives, which is also the puzzle of this case) and then a statement of a representative figure, willing to take responsibility and beg them to give others a free life...... The last ** -

The final ending is not the previous mystery novels, the murderer was severely punished by the law, but an ending full of humanity.

"In my opinion, Mr. Poirot, the first inference you have made is correct—certainly correct. I suggest that when the Yugoslav police come, that is the conclusion that we will be able to provide. Doctor, do you agree? ”

"Of course I agree. As for the medical evidence, I think – uh – I can make one or two wonderful changes. ”

"Well, then, since the conclusions are all in front of you, I have the honor of retiring."

The brilliance of human nature is vividly displayed at this time! The image of Detective Poirot suddenly became flesh and blood, which was enough to make people pay the highest respect to a schoolboy who was looking for a grim reaper......

Lin Xiao has absolute confidence, such a story will definitely surprise all the judges!
