[Mummy] Yellow sand fills the sky

Kaya immediately got up and said, "Mr. Poirot, please let me join you. I really want to ask her a question, why she needs to do this. She is a good girl. Even poverty has not bent her spine." , I want to ask her if she has any regrets."

Jacqueline Belfort sat in the chair.In another chair against the wall sat a tall waitress.Jacqueline looked him over thoughtfully.She pointed to the waitress. "Can she go out,"

Poirot nodded.The waitress leaves the room.Poirot sat down close to Jaclyn.The two were silent, Poirot looked regretful, Kaia just stood behind, and finally it was Jacqueline who spoke first.

"Well," she said, "it's all over! We are no match for your wit, M. Poirot." sighed Poirot.He spread his hands.He was eerily silent.

"In any case," said Jacqueline thoughtfully, "I always feel that your evidence is insufficient. Of course, you are right in inferring, but if we insist--"

"Miss, it's impossible to have a second ending to the whole thing."

"Of course it can be established with logical reasoning, but I don't believe it can convince the jury. But, alas - there is no way. You are very smart and know how to attack simple Simon. Of course, with your wit and eloquence, he does not talk about business. huh?" She then shook her head and sighed, "That poor and worthless fellow."

"You're a graceful loser, though, miss." She laughed suddenly—a queer, rebellious laugh.

Kaya sighed faintly, "If you hadn't fallen in love with that Mr. Doyle, you would have achieved a lot. But love always makes people go to the head, always like this. When you fall in love with someone, you You will no longer just think about yourself, but will be wholeheartedly for the other party."

"I think I'd like to tell you. It's actually very simple. Simon and I love each other..." Poirot said bluntly: "Love alone is enough for you, but Simon doesn't think so."

"Maybe you could say that. But you don't know Simon very well. You know, he's always wanted a lot of money. He likes everything money can buy—horses, yachts, outdoor games—all of it." Very beautiful things, things that a man should be interested in. And he has never been able to get these things. Simon is very simple, and his desire to own things is as eager as a child."

"Anyway, he never wanted to marry a rich ugly woman. He wasn't that kind of person. We met and fell in love, but we couldn't tell when we would get married. He had a good job, But he lost his job. You could say it was all his own fault. He tried to play tricks on the accounts and he got caught. I don't believe he really tried to cheat, he just thought it was the way people in the city did it."

A gleam flashed across Poirot's face, but he did not speak.Kaia lowered her head, the light in her eyes dimmed.

"So we were in trouble. I thought of Linna and her new home, and I hurried to beg her. Do you know, Mr. Poirot? Actually, I like Linna very much. She is my best friend, and I have never I didn't think there would be any disputes between the two of us. I just thought she was lucky and had such a fortune. If she could give Simon a job, it would help us a lot. She was very straightforward and called me immediately Take Simon to meet her. That's when you met us at the 'At Aunt's' restaurant. We were partying, even though there wasn't much money in the pocket."

She paused, sighed, and then continued: "Mr. Poirot, what I'm going to say below is the truth. Although Lin Na is dead, it can't change the facts. That's why I haven't done anything for her until now." She's sad. She tried everything in her power to get Simon away. It's a sad truth! I'm sure she didn't hesitate for a minute or two. I'm her friend and she doesn't care at all, she's just blindly pursuing Simon... "

"But Simon didn't bother to look at her! I told you that Linna was very attractive, but it wasn't always true. Simon didn't like her. He thought she was beautiful, but she was very bossy, and he hated bossy women! He felt very sad. Embarrassing, but he does like her money."

"Of course, I see this... Finally I suggested to him that he might as well leave me behind and marry Lin Na. But he refused with disdain. He said that no matter whether he has money or not, he must marry me. He Said that if you want to be rich, you have to own everything yourself, and don't rely on the handouts of rich wives. He also said that as long as I am alone..."

"I think I know when he got the idea. One day he said 'if I'm lucky enough to marry her and she dies a year later, I'll have everything from her' His gaze Full of strange expressions. This is the first time he has such an idea..."

"He kept mentioning it over and over—it would be nice if Lin Na died. I said the idea was too terrible, so he didn't dare to mention it again. Then one day, I found him reading about poison, and I blamed him. He, he laughed and said, 'If you don't enter the tiger's lair, you won't catch the tiger's cub!' This is the only chance in my life to come across so much money." "After a while, I knew he had made up his mind. I was terrified— —just fear. Because I know he'll never get out. He's so simple-minded! He's not cunning and imaginative. He's probably going to give Linna arsenic indiscriminately, and then think the doctor will say she died of gastritis. He always thinks It's very simple."

"Then, you made this almost seamless plan for him." Kaia raised her head, with an obvious mockery on her face, Poirot wanted to say something, but Kaya resolutely stopped him, "Jacqueline Bell Ford, why do you think you failed, why did you and Lena Ridgeway end up in this situation, because you both fell in love with a man with only appearance but no intelligence. Because Simon Doyle's mind is only filled with ignorance and incomprehension actual."

Just as Poirot was about to speak, Kaia gave him a rather savage look, "He's a coward, I insist anyway. As a man, there's no way he can make his women live comfortably and take care of him." I hope that he is not good at some illusory things, not thinking about relying on his own efforts. Such a man, besides being a skin, can see what else he can do."

Poirot finally found a space to speak: "Mrs. Montsolefort, it's a little late tonight."

Kaia's eyes were as sharp as an eagle, "Jacqueline Belfort, you have all the endurance, wisdom, and determination. You didn't hesitate when you killed. See, when you stabbed the knife into the maid's chest, you were absolutely Calm down, when you shot Mrs. Otterburn, the hand holding the gun did not tremble. You did it entirely out of your calmness, your thinking."

"Open your eyes and look at the man in front of you. You can't find a good place to shoot yourself. If he accidentally shoots in that position, he will be disabled for life. Also, if you kill Linna Lijiwei She wasn't asleep, so he definitely couldn't do it."

"Yes." Jacqueline faced her gaze very bravely, "but I just love him, deeply in love with him, the moment I saw him, I felt that I was really alive, My world is colorful. Love is such an unreasonable thing, and I am ready to meet my destiny."

"I'm very disappointed." Kaia sighed, "But I can't do anything more, you are such a determined woman, you have completely decided your future, so I won't try to make any more Any futile move, I can't change your will." Poirot stood up, with regret, regret and other complex expressions in his eyes.

Jacqueline looked into his serious face.She said softly: "Monsieur Poirot, don't worry too much about me. After all, I'm used to a hard life, you know that. If we succeed, I'll enjoy everything very happily, and I won't have to." It's a bit of a joke. Now that's the case—well, I have to accept the reality."

She added, "I think the waitress is watching me to prevent me from hanging or poisoning myself - just like the main character in the book. You don't have to be afraid! I won't do that. With me by my side , Simon will be better."

Poirot stood up.Jaclyn stood up too, but she laughed suddenly: "Remember when I said I had to follow my star? You said it might be a dodgy star; I said, 'That's a bad star! That star will Fall!'" Poirot stepped off the deck, Jacqueline's laughter still ringing in his ears.

As soon as she went out, Imerton stood outside waiting for her, as if it had never changed, Kaia threw herself into his arms Imerton stroked her hair very gently: "Kaya, there are always things What we cannot change, fate has already made suitable arrangements."
