Chapter 1 preamble
"Tequila Sunrise" - Actually, the word Tequila should be pronounced "Tequila", but I prefer the name "Tequila": because of the real pronunciation and transliteration It's easy to think of Kirov airships or other clunky and dull things (laughs).
As we all know, "Tequila Sunrise" is a very famous cocktail.The origin of this name is because of its wonderful layered color - from the upper layer of light yellow to orange, and finally to orange red: the color is attributed to three parts of orange juice and finally slowly poured along the wall of the glass. A dash of Grenadine (also known as Grenadine Sirup). Grenadine is a very commonly used coloring agent in bartending, and it is often called "pomegranate molasses" in China.But in fact it is not squeezed from pomegranates (Granatapfel in German - this is a common misunderstanding in translation), but from various berries with dark red juice (such as raspberries, black tea? son, European blackberry, etc.).
Of course, as a cocktail, a tequila is crucial - tequila is what we usually call tequila, a specialty of Mexico.I finally chose such a name instead of calling it "Tequila Murder" as originally planned, because the layering of cocktails is a good metaphor for the progress of this case.
It could also be called "Murder at a Drinking Party"-it seems that this name may be more general.
This will be a small-scale case, and the whole story will be composed of a lot of dialogue and a little description; it will also be a typical "Storm Mountain Villa" type case-I rarely operate this type, mainly Because I prefer open scenes: I hate the narrow "infinite possibilities" in closed spaces.
But I still want to try to write something like this after all, the origin is a very simple original puzzle, and some quite interesting knowledge - I try to deepen the puzzle, and add some necessary plot and emotional factors In it (which is of course necessary for a novel), the case is completed.
I hope you can enjoy this new glass of wine, with ice or lemon juice, please decide for yourself.
(Author's Note: Daiquiri, a rum-based cocktail. The name of this wine originated from Cuba, and it is the name of a manor 14 kilometers away from Santiago. There are many variants of this famous cocktail, such as Papa Doble, which was famous for Hemingway. )
