X's Tragedy 埃勒里·奎因 706Words 2018-03-15
"Mr. Wren, let me explain again." At this time, Prosecutor Bruno interrupted, "Inspector Sam has told almost all the relevant details, and some of the information obtained from the conversation and inquiry has also been checked by us. , proved to be correct, but to be honest, most of the information, we don’t think it’s important at all, and it’s not true..." "My dear Mr. Bruno," said Wren, "nothing is unimportant, what a cliché and what a truth! Anyway, Inspector Sam's account is very, very good." Sitting in the big chair Leth shifted his body and stretched his long legs towards the fireplace. "Let's take a break, Inspector. Let's take a rest before we continue."

The fire was flickering, and despite being shrouded in shadows, Bruno and the two clearly saw Ren closing his eyes calmly and clasping his hands gently on his knees.His white and cheerful face was very serene, and for a moment, it seemed that the ancient room of another era was silent, only the four dark high walls stood silently. Suddenly, there was a cracking sound from a dark corner, which startled Bruno and Sam. It turned out to be Kuisi, who was like dried parchment. The hunchbacked old man laughed softly for some reason. Bruno and Sam looked at each other, when Rain's calm, soft and trained voice sounded again.

"Inspector Sam," he said, "there's one thing I don't quite understand." "Please tell me, Mr. Wren." "According to what you just said, when it was raining, the tram was driving between Seventh Avenue and Eighth Avenue, so when Lonstra and his party boarded the car on Eighth Avenue, I remember you said that the windows of the car were closed. Closed, you mean every window is closed?" A bit of suspicion appeared on Inspector Sam's rough face: "Oh, of course, there is no doubt that it is every window. Officer Duffy is absolutely sure."

"That would be great," continued the soft voice, "and have any of the windows been opened since then?" "Absolutely not, in fact, the rain was getting heavier as we drove into the garage, so the windows were closed every second since it started raining." "That's great, that's great," the deep eyes under the gray eyebrows sparkled, "Please continue!"
