Chapter 14 14 Questions from Mr. Brochoi

Have you read the Times this morning?Mr. Brocho asked his colleague Mr. Schuster. Mr. Schuster said he couldn't afford The Times, he bought The Telegraph. Oh, and the Telegraph probably has one too, said Mr. Brocho.In the obituary column.Doctor of Science Elizabeth.Temple passed away. Mr. Schuster looked at him a little puzzled. She is the headmaster of Farrowfield.Should you have heard of Faro Original? Yes, Schuster said.It is a girls' school with a history of more than fifty years.The tuition fees of the first-class prestigious schools are astonishingly expensive.Turns out she's the principal there, eh?I think the principal has been retired for a while, at least half a year.I remember I found out about her retirement in the papers, and there were other reports about the new headmistress: married, quite young, between thirty-five and forty, modern-minded, arranging make-up classes for girls , and made them wear pant suits and stuff like that.

Well, said Brotry.A lawyer his age would almost always say that before hearing something and making a comment based on long experience.Don't think that her reputation may catch up with Elizabeth.Temple.She used to be a heavyweight.She has been a principal for a long time. Yes, Mr. Schuster replied dully. He wondered why Mr. Brotree was so interested in the headmistress. Neither of these men actually had much interest in school.The education of their children is more or less arranged.Mr. Brochoe's two sons worked in the public service and the oil company respectively, while Schuster's two much younger children attended different universities.

he asks: What's up with her? She was traveling in a tour bus, Mr. Brochore replied. Tour bus, Mr. Schuster said.I will never let my relatives take that kind of car.Last week in Switzerland, a tour bus fell off a cliff; two months ago, another bus smashed into pieces, killing 20 people.I really don't know who is driving this kind of thing these days. It's one of those tourist associations, the British Attractions Association (whatever they call it), Mr. Brotley said.I may not have the right name, but you know what I mean. oh i know.Oh, uh, yes, the tour that we sent that old lady whose name was, the one that old Rafael booked.

Jane.Miss Marple was in there too. Shouldn't she be dead too?asked Mr. Schuster. Not so far as I know, Mr. Brotley replied.I find it kind of weird though. Was there a car accident on the road? No, it happened in a scenic area.They were on an ascending trail, climbing a steep hill.The road is difficult to walk, and there are dangerous rocks and rocks everywhere.Some boulders loosened and rolled down the mountainside.Miss Temple was smashed right across the face and sent to the hospital with a concussion and just died. Bad luck, Mr. Schuster finished, and continued to wait for the next article.

I'm just wondering, Mr. Brotley said.Because I remember Farrow was the school the girl went to. which girl?Brotri, I really don't know what you're talking about. It was Little Mike.The girl Raphael killed.I thought of several cases, and Rafael personally commissioned Jane.This matter of Miss Marple seems to be vaguely related.Wish he had told me more. What's the connection?asked Mr. Schuster. He seems more interested now.His wit in legal matters was beginning to sharpen, and he was ready to give thoughtful advice on the secret which Mr. Brotley was about to tell him. That girl, I can't remember her last name now, but it was something like Hope or Faith.Ah, Viloty, that's her name, I think she's called Viloty.hunt.She was one of the few girls who were killed in a row. Her body was found in a ditch about 30 miles away from where she disappeared. She had been dead for six months when she was found.She had apparently been strangled and had her entire face and head smashed to death.Police believe this was done to avoid being identified.But with clothes, handbags, jewelry found nearby, and moles or scars on her body, she was recognized after all.Yes, she was easily recognized.

In fact, she was the key to that trial, wasn't she? That's right.At that time, the police suspected that Mike had killed three other girls a year before the incident, but the evidence of those murders was not as clear as this time, so the police tried their best this time to dig out sufficient evidence. previous convictions, earlier crimes, rape records, etc.Oh, we all know what rape means these days.The mother told her daughter that she must sue the boy for rape, even if the boy had little chance to come to the girl's house when the girl's mother was away at work or her father was away on vacation, unless the girl kept throwing herself into her arms and pestering her, and finally forced him to sleep together.But like I said, mothers always tell their daughters to sue boys for rape.But that's beside the point, Mr. Brotley said.You know, I was wondering if those two things were related.I think Rafael commissioned Jane.What Marble did probably has something to do with Mike.

He was found guilty, right?And was sentenced to life imprisonment? I can't remember now, it's been too long.Or did they give him a reduced sentence? Micro Lotte.Hunter had gone to the girls' school, Miss Temple's school.She wasn't a student when she was killed, was she?I can't remember. Oh, not anymore.She was about eighteen or nineteen years old at the time, and lived with relatives or friends of her parents.Nice house, nice people, nice girl in every way.She is the kind of girl whose relatives would say: a very quiet girl, very shy, who won't mess with strangers, and doesn't have a boyfriend.The relatives of those girls never knew that the girls in their own family had boyfriends.Girls are very cautious about this.I heard that little Rafael is very popular with women.

No one doubted that he did not commit a crime?asked Mr. Schuster. Not at all.All in all, he was lying on the witness stand.It would be better if his defense lawyers didn't let him make a counter-evidence himself.Many of his friends have given him alibi, but none of them stand up, you know.His friends seem to be all liars who can speak well. What's your take on the matter, Brotrie? Oh, I don't have an opinion yet, said Mr. Brotley.I was just wondering if this woman's death had anything to do with that. How to say? Oh, you know, it doesn't seem like a natural occurrence for a boulder to roll down a mountain and hit someone right on the head.In my experience, boulders are usually stationary.
