Chapter 320 Murder on the Orient Express

Of course, Wen Dou has to write more confident works, and Lin Yuan feels that the Poirot series and the Sherlock Holmes series are very big, so he hesitated between the two most powerful detectives in the history of reasoning——

"It's Poirot."

Lin Yuan finally made a decision.

The reason for not choosing to release Holmes is simple.

Because the root of the narrative is "Roger's Mystery", the detective of this case is Poirot. It is also from this novel that Leng Guang has become the vanguard of the anti-narrative. It is better to let Poirot win this literary fight. .

It starts with Poirot and ends with Poirot.

It seems ritual.

Now release Holmes, as if Holmes was going to help Poirot wipe his ass.

Lin Yuan's affection for these two characters is not high or low, and naturally there will be no preference for a certain character.

"Boss, be careful."

Jin Mu seemed to be afraid that Lin Yuan would not pay attention to this literary fight, and specifically introduced the situation of Leng Guang:

"Leng Guang is not the top reasoning writer in the reasoning circle, but most of his works are very well evaluated. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a top reasoning writer..."

"I know."

Lin Yuan paid more attention to this.

He also specifically asked for a piece of information from the system.

Because no specific content is involved, the system does not charge any fees.

And this information covers all the cases Poirot has uncovered.

Poirot has cracked many cases.

Among the more famous ones are "Roger's Mystery", "ABC Murder", "Orient Express Murder", "Nile Massacre", "Crimes in the Sun" and so on.

Lin Yuan intends to single out one of Poirot's classic cases for a literary fight.

Precise customization will be used this time.

"In Poirot's case, "Murder on the Orient Express" is a work that must be mentioned, because this work tells the game between human sentiment and legal principles, and at the same time creates a co-operative murder mode..."

"There is also "The Tragedy on the Nile", a work that was also at the peak of Grandma. There are countless versions of the film and drama remakes of this book, probably because the love element in this book is too convincing. People shake?"

"In contrast, the plot of "ABC Murder" is relatively simple and simple, and it is not so suspenseful and winding. It mainly lies in the analysis and portrayal of the character's psychology. The mode of murder prediction is a bright spot."

"You can also consider "Crimes in the Sun", but this is a more routine, the deceased is the same as the Nile case. He is also the most powerful, most powerful, most beautiful and therefore the most hated person. It is also in a relatively closed small On the island, everyone has motives and suspicions, as well as killing people in the cold caves and the Nile River has not yet launched. It is indeed possible to choose, but the priority is not high."

"..."

Hesitate and analyze again and again.

Lin Yuan finally made a decision.

His choice is: "Murder on the Orient Express"!

There is no doubt that this is a popular work!

If you want to set a ranking for all Poirot's cases, 80% of readers would rank "Murder on the Orient Express" first!

It is said that this is still the work of many people's grandmothers?

There is no specific data to prove that Lin Yuan has his own reasons for choosing this work anyway!

"The pioneer of the cooperative killing model, and later inspired countless writers to imitate the classic masterpiece, and the ending is even more shocking and full of villains."

Oh, that's not right.

It should be said that all employees are kind.

As a fan of homicide in a secret room and a fan of trains, the murder case in a secret room on the train is naturally extremely tempting.

The usual crimes are:

Only one of these many people is the murderer.

But this case is:

Only one of these thirteen people is innocent!

So this case reflects a topic that is often disputed in later generations:

Since the law cannot enforce the justice in their hearts, can they use their own killing rituals to punish the suspect in this case, and at the same time the criminal who committed the most evil but was at large?

Twelve people are all murderers.

This is a game between human relations and legal principles.

And another reason why this work is famous is probably because Poirot was also shaken in the face of principles.

He finally made a decision.

That was what he said after he found out the truth: "Now, since the answer has been given to you, please allow me to announce with great honour to withdraw from this case..."

Poirot's withdrawal was the greatest gentleness he could give.

From the beginning of this story, Poirot is no longer a ruthless crime-solving machine, no longer a representative of absolute law, but a man of flesh and blood and emotion.

In fact, just like the sentence emphasized every day by "Detective Conan":

there is only one truth.

But this time Poirot would rather give up abiding by this belief, rather than neglect his duty, and offer everyone two choices.

When justice was transformed into tenderness, Poirot became the true detective in many people's hearts.

"It seems that disputes are always unavoidable?"

Lin Yuan was a little worried. Choosing "Murder on the Orient Express" would plunge him into new controversies:

When the law cannot provide justice, can people personally punish those impunity murderers?

Poirot's decision, in some people's eyes, may be gentle, but in some people's eyes, I am afraid it is to condone crime.

"probably not."

After thinking about it, Lin Yuan felt that he was thinking too much.

Every writer will face some controversy more or less.

Perhaps some people are dissatisfied with the concept conveyed by Murder on the Orient Express, but they are destined to be only a few people. Lin Yuan believes that more people can understand Poirot and might even like Poirot because of it.

As mentioned earlier, Poirot in "Murder on the Orient Express" is the most explosive.

It was when Poirot chose to exonerate the murderer!

This is probably the only time in all Poirot's cases that the murderer has been let go, and there were more than a dozen people!

Coincidentally.

Another great detective, Holmes, also made the decision to let the murderer go.

However, in terms of the shock of the scene, the ending of "Murder on the Orient Express" is the most burning.

Of course, only reasoning fans who approve of Poirot's approach will feel burnt.

Next, it will be adapted.

Because of the different character stories and backgrounds, the amount of work that Lin Yuan has to do this time is quite large.

Fortunately, there is no need to change the core of the story.

This is a story about revenge, the motive of the murder is mastered, and the identity of the character is not important.

In fact.

Another reason for choosing "Murder on the Orient Express" is that Lin Yuan wants to completely start Poirot's signature!

With the release of "Roger's Mystery", readers are no longer unfamiliar with Poirot.

With the more in-depth characterization of Poirot in Murder on the Orient Express, Lin Yuan believes that Poirot’s popularity will explode!

To know.

This case is not only one of the pinnacles of Poirot's life, but also one of the pinnacles of grandma's life!

Grandma wrote countless mysteries before her death, and people in later generations always like to rank her personal works.

Most people will leave the first place to "No Survival".

But occasionally some people have different opinions.

The difference is that some readers think "Murder on the Orient Express" is Granny's pinnacle work!

This kind of argument will not be discussed in the book.

It can be said that a fact that most readers are willing to recognize is that "Murder on the Orient Express" can be ranked in the top three among all Granny's works.

There is no dispute on this point.
