Chapter 320 Murder on the Orient Express
Chapter 320 Murder on the Orient Express
Of course, Wen Dou has to write more confident works, but for the Poirot series and the Sherlock Holmes series, Lin Yuan feels that the chances of winning are very high, so he hesitates between the two most powerful detectives in the history of reasoning——
"Or Poirot."
Lin Yuan finally made a decision.
The reason why Sherlock Holmes was not chosen to be released is simple.
Because the root of the narration is "Roger's Mystery", the detective of this case is Poirot, and it is also from this novel that Leng Guang has become the vanguard of the anti-narrative, so it is better to let Poirot win this literary battle .
Start with Poirot and end with Poirot.
It looks ceremonial.
Let Holmes out now, as if Holmes was going to wipe Poirot's ass.
There is no distinction between Lin Yuan's love for these two characters. 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 battle, so he specially introduced the situation of Leng Guang:
"Leng Guang is not considered the top reasoning writer in the reasoning circle, but most of his works are well-received. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a first-class reasoning writer..."
"I see."
Lin Yuan still paid more attention to this.
He also specifically asked the system for a document.
Because there is no specific content involved, the system does not charge any fees.
And this information just included all the cases that Poirot had cracked.
Poirot solved many cases.
Among the more famous ones are "Roger's Mystery", "Abc Murder", "Murder on the Orient Express", "Tragedy on the Nile", "Crime in the Sun" and so on.
Lin Yuan planned to choose one of Poirot's classic cases for literary battle.
This time we will use precise customization.
"In Poirot's case, "Murder on the Orient Express" is a work that must be mentioned, because this work tells the game between human feelings and legal principles, and at the same time created a tricky mode of cooperative killing..."
"There is also "Tragedy on the Nile", which is also a work of Granny's peak period. There are countless versions of movies and dramas that have been remade from this book, probably because the love element in this book is so exciting. people shaking?"
"In contrast, the plot of "Abc Murder" is relatively single 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 the murder notice is a bright spot."
"You can also consider "Crimes in the Sun", but this comparison routine, the deceased is the same as the case of the Nile River, and he is the most powerful, powerful, and beautiful person, and therefore the most hated person, and he is in a relatively closed small Island, and everyone has motives and suspicions, as well as killing people in a cold cave and secret room, and the Nile River has not flown, it is indeed possible to choose, but the priority is not high."
"..."
Hesitate again and again, analyze again and again.
Lin Yuan finally made a decision.
His choice: Murder on the Orient Express!
There is no doubt that this is a popular work!
If you want to rank all the cases of Poirot, 80% of the readers will rank "Murder on the Orient Express" first!
It is said that this is the work of many people?
There is no specific data to prove that, anyway, Lin Yuan has his own reasons for choosing this work!
"The pioneer of the cooperative killing mode, which later inspired countless writers to imitate the classic masterpiece, and the ending is even more shocking and full of villains."
Oh no.
It should be said that all staff are good people.
As a fan of locked room murders and train fans, the locked room murders on the train are naturally extremely attractive.
The usual crimes are:
Only one of these many was the murderer.
But this case is:
Only one of these thirteen people is innocent!
Therefore, this case reflects a topic that is often debated in later generations:
Since the law cannot implement the justice in their hearts, can they use their own killing rituals to punish the suspect in this case, who is also the criminal who has committed the heinous crime but is at large?
Twelve are murderers.
This is a game between human feelings and legal principles.
Another reason why this work is famous is that Poirot is also wavering in front of principles.
He finally makes a decision.
That was what he said after finding out the truth: "Now, since I have given you the answer, please allow me to announce with great honor that I am withdrawing from this case..."
Poirot's withdrawal was the greatest tenderness he could give.
Starting from this story, Poirot is no longer a ruthless crime-solving machine, no longer an absolute representative of the law, but a person with flesh and blood and emotions.
In fact, just like the sentence emphasized every day in "Detective Conan":
there is only one truth.
But this time Poirot would rather give up abiding by this belief, would rather fail his duty, and provide two choices for everyone.
When justice turned into tenderness, Poirot became a real detective in many people's hearts.
"It seems that controversy is always inevitable?"
Lin Yuan was a little worried that choosing "Murder on the Orient Express" would plunge him into new controversy:
When the law fails to deliver justice, can people personally punish those murderers who get away with it?
Poirot's decision, in the eyes of some, may be gentle, but in the eyes of others, it may be condoning crime.
"probably not."
After thinking about it, Lin Yuan felt that he was thinking too much.
Every writer faces some controversies more or less.
Maybe some people are indeed dissatisfied with the ideas 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 even like Poirot because of it.
As mentioned earlier, Poirot in "Murder on the Orient Express" is the most explosive.
What happened was when Poirot chose to acquit the murderer!
This was probably the only time among all Poirot's cases that the murderer was let go, and there were more than a dozen people!
Coincidentally.
Another great detective, Sherlock Holmes, also made the decision to let the murderer go.
However, judging from the shockingness of the scene, the ending of "Murder on the Orient Express" is the hottest.
Of course, only reasoning fans who agree with Poirot's approach will find it irritating.
Next, it is necessary to adapt it well.
Because of the different stories and backgrounds of the characters, Lin Yuan has to do a lot of adaptation work this time.
Fortunately, the core of the story does not need to change.
This is a story about revenge, the motive of the murder is mastered, and the identity of the characters is not important.
In fact.
Another reason for choosing "Murder on the Orient Express" was that Lin Yuan wanted to make Poirot's signature a hit!
With the release of "Roger's Mystery", readers are no strangers to Poirot.
With "Murder on the Orient Express" portraying Poirot's deeper character, Lin Yuan believes that Poirot's popularity will explode!
To know.
This case was not only one of the pinnacles of Poirot's life, but also one of the pinnacles of Grandma's life!
Grandma wrote countless mystery novels during her lifetime, and people in later generations always like to rank grandma's personal works.
The vast majority of people will leave the first place to "There Were None".
But occasionally someone has a different opinion.
The difference is that some readers think that "Murder on the Orient Express" is the pinnacle of Granny's work!
This kind of debate is not 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 the works of Grandma.
There is no dispute about this.
