"Half for me and half for Victor." "And you." "Leverson?" "His mother, the sister of Reuben, knew that it was not much brainless, then it left her goods in the hands of Reuben, in his condition to give to the Charles a reasonable monthly allowance." "It was almost a promise in his bed of death." " And did he carry out it?" " Up to yesterday." "My husband threatened to leave it Chatter completely penniless if he was not working in the firm."

"It Chatter that a great deal of her likes." "She came with the best references." " Can I see these references?" " Is that even necessary?" "It is alone to be satisfactory my curiosity." "I came you saw." "Naylor." "It looks that you." "Naylor it is not of moment." "I do not know when it returns." "Does it want to leave any message?" "He gives this to him when to return."

"Following the press must come." "Billet what my photography it appears in the newspapers, Mr. Parsons?" "Mr. Parsons, he wanted to speak with you, please." "Certainly, man." "With license." "Last night he heard a discussion between you." "Leverson and you." "Reuben." "Yes." "I heard him speaking loudly." "Then there was a deaf noise and you." "Leverson shouted "Good Lord!"" "It tried to inquire the reason for such a perturbation?" "I tried, man." "I left from my room  and I put myself to the listening to the bottom of the staircase." "I heard you." "Leverson to say " There are no resentments. "" "Then it went away, whistling cheerfully." " What you did now, girl?" " I cut myself." "There is a metal barb stuck on the table." "Allow me, Mademoiselle." "Be already!" "Mr. Parsons, it noticed if some of the sets of cutlery is it damaged?" "By chance, one of the knives it is without the tip, man." "I think that it is going to find it driven on the table." "Thank you, man." "I am going to treat that." " It is going to put a bandage there, Gladys." " Yes, Mr. Parsons." "I am going to wash his scarf, man." "No, not, Mademoiselle." "Thank you, but it is not necessary." "His business conversation yesterday at night with his brother, Sir Reuben, was it friendly?" " Because it would not be?" "Because I detected a certain tension to the table..." "Yes..." "We had a small misunderstanding." " A discussion?" " It would not call him that." "A heated conversation." "It was because of this." "We raised a synthetic rubber, the Astoprene." "It is extraordinary, done from oil." "It has notable properties." "It is strong like soft steel." "High level of adherence." "It is ideal for tires of automobile." "Reuben was intending to authorize his production to the I. G. Farben." " Did he already hear of them?" " Yes, clear." "They are the biggest manufacturers of chemists of Germany." "Did the man oppose?" "Now it does not pass already of the theory." "I already canceled the transaction."

"I am trying to check where they all were when Sir Reuben was murdered." "I was sleeping deeply." "I went to bed somewhat after the man to go." " Did it go away early in the morning?" " Yes." "Before the breakfast." "Yesterday he spoke to the dinner of the advancements scientific in Germany." " Did I speak?" " Does he speak the language fluently?" "He had to speak." "I worked and studied in Germany several years." "Does it have there several friends?" "I support myself in contact with colleagues." "Well, questions have not been any more, Mr. Poirot..." "Thank you, Mr. Trefusis." "I lament to have bothered it." "One year vintage, would not he say?" "Here it has the order of what it was to the wait." "Thank you." "I liked my stay." "My car is here out." "Exhibition Road." "London." "He says that this Mr. Naylor took the such one does it order with him while leaving the hotel?" " Yes." " Thank you, Hastings." " Is this a blood, Poirot?" " Yes, Hastings, but it is not mine." "Gladys, the servant, was cut in the finger while finding the tip of a knife driven on the table where Victor Astwell was sitting down." "It does not suspect him, is not it?" "There is no any certainty of which his friend Chatter that he is the murderer." "Lady Astwell is quite convinced of what it is not he." "He did not know what it was depositing crazy confidence in the intuition." "The intuition, Hastings, there describes very often a fact what it is so buried in the subconsciousness that the subject does not notice of his existence." " What fact?" " So, Hastings  if I knew that, the case would be already resolved." "The references of Lily Margrave." "Lady Astwell ordered them by special post." "Thank you, Beauty queen Lemon." "They are in fact full of praises." "And this is undoubtedly the coat of arms of the noble Duquesa de Perthsire." "Interesting what." "He says the truth, Chatter." "What you have to lose?" "When I arrived of the club of golf, I went even to the office." "It was a little irritated and it wanted to take away satisfactions with that old devil." "I entered in the office and he was sitting down to the secretary." "At least, it was what it was looking." "I already endured the sufficient thing, his crossbow!" "" Did he hear?" "" It does not like what do to him front, is not it? "" "It does not like what do to him front, is not it?" "It has not anything saying..." "Good Lord!" "Then when it found it, he was already even dead." "But because I shine did you escape?" "Well, when the servant saw the blood  I panicked." "Are they seeing?" "I knew what were not going to believe in me." "Who would believe?" "Perhaps Poirot." "He knows what I cannot guarantee when they resulted, Mr. Poirot." "I trust you, Beauty queen Lemon." "He is sleepy..." "With great sleep..." "His eyelids are weighed." "They are closing..." " Closing..." " This is absurd." "Relax." "It is going to fall asleep..." "Lady Astwell, the lady is sleeping." "It is hearing me and it is going to answer ás my questions." "I am hearing it." "I am going to answer ás his questions." "We are in the night of the crime." "The lady is sitting down á table of the dinner." "Describe me what he saw and what felt." "I am very worried, preoccupied about the Lily." "Victor is looking at Reuben with an angry air." "Talk to me about Victor." "He is an enchanting man." "We love each other very much." "They passed some hours." "The lady goes to the office." "Is Victor there?" "No, it is going out of there." "He are pale and angry." "He is unbearable!" "The lady enters in the office." "It had a great discussion with his husband, was not it?" " She goes away and it finished." " Have not I a word to say?" "Companions it is what it is not lacking." "You arrange other one." "He is going to be murdered soon." "He knows who killed his husband, Lady Astwell?" " It was not it Chatter." " How he knows?" "Because of the curtain." "Have not I a word to say?" "Companions it is what it is not lacking." "You arrange other one." " What has the curtain?" " There was one  silhouette." " A silhouette?" "Is there anybody behind the curtain?" "Who is behind the curtain?" " Mr. Poirot, already arrives." " Please, Mademoiselle." "She is worried!" "Does not he see?" "Lady Astwell, the curtain." "Is anybody behind her?" "Late of more." "She is going out from the ordeal." "Did I sleep a siesta?" "It is that itself." "A small siesta." "Did I say anything?" "Not as much as I would like." "In the night of the tragedy, it went to bed before Lady Astwell to go to the office, right?" "Yes." "By chance it returned going out of his room?" "No." "It went sometime to the office during the night?" "No." "Time none." " Snooper..." " In what sense, Mr. Poirot?" "Because I remember, in this night, it had a dress of chiffon green." "What feather to have split." "Where it found that?" "It went again to the office after the dinner?" "No!" "Yes..." "Perhaps..." "Yes, already I remember." "I went to the office in the previous night." "And it was with the same dress." "The same dress!" "It is pity to have tipped over in him a little of the excellent wine of Sir Reuben." "Or will it be a blood?" "She is going to escape, Poirot." "It must be made a list with that order." "I think that I know for where her it goes." "Exhibition Road." "It is going to catch the train of the 13.:15." " Is he sure of the time-table?" " Absolute." "Then we have time, the car will blow them to me up." "I tell that I get for the navigation." "To which hours is it the near train for London?" "Exhibition Road, please." "SUPERIOR INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY" " Where he is the Exhibition Road, Hastings?" " There in top, on the right." " It is full of museums and institutes." " Only one interests us." "Quick, Hastings." "A hurried departure, Mademoiselle Margrave." "If this is even his name." "My true name he is Lily Naylor." "Humphrey is my brother." "And the man, Sr. Naylor, it is investigating here, in the Imperial College." "Yes." "Of polimerização." "The molecular forms of repeating unities..." "We are speaking of synthetic rubber." "In this case, yes." "I did a discovery of a compound." "It was not completed, but it was almost there." "It was needing commercial investment to develop this potential." "Then I approached the Astwell Chemicals." "To beginning, they showed some interest in my work." "But past some time, Sir Reuben one said what lost the interest." "Excuse, Naylor, we are not prepared to go so far." "To the beginning, I believed in them." "But I was been suspicious due to certain small articles in scientific magazines." "They had not great meaning for whom it was not realizing of that." "I checked some things and I was sure of what Astwell it was using my investigation." "He was being wrong, but I had no proofs." "And the Mademoiselle Naylor?" "His references?" "Are they genuine?" "Yes, completely." "I was even contracted for the Duchess of Perthsire." "The Astwells would have recognized the name Naylor." "Then I changed my name in the references." "And with this subterfuge it got to obtain the dossier on the Astoprene." "Mr. Astwell, is so kind of talking to us about the Mr. Naylor." "The man and his brother did they steal his investigation?" "I tried to speak with Reuben, me them he said that the work of Naylor it had not been tested." "Our laboratories they were occupied of everything." "I bring into line that there were some problems because of deciding." "Let's return at night of the murder of Sir Reuben, please." "Lady Astwell, when the lady was in ordeal, he said that he saw something behind the curtain." "No, it was not of the curtain of the window." "It was of that curtain." " Good Lord!" " One abates, Lady." "Captain Hastings." "Thank you." "Perhaps be able to tell us who was hidden behind the curtain," "Mr. Naylor?" " I was not." "He said already to him, after being with the Lily, I returned for the hotel." "They were to me really an intruder." "And when it entered in the office, he was not intending to kill anybody." "He only there was with the intention of looking for something." "But, suddenly, he hears the sound of voices and steps what are brought near." "And only it found a siege to be hidden." "The small room with connection to the office what you." "Astwell was using when it was working up to afternoon." "You." "Victor Astwell and Sir Reuben they enter in the office." "They do not see anybody hidden behind the curtain and they talk violently." "Victor!" "You." "Victor Astwell leaves, furious." "But there is no way of escaping for our intruder." "What dilemma." "If Sir Reuben to decide to pass the night in the small room, certainly it will be going to discover it." "Lady Astwell enters in the office to protest against the despedimento of the "Mademoiselle" Naylor." "Companions it is what it is not lacking." "You arrange other one." "When Lady Astwell leaves, Sir Reuben is alone." "It is the only moment in which the intruder it can escape without being detected." "But Sir Reuben hears a noise." "That I shine..." "A thoughtless act, followed from pure panic." "Our intruder will escape." "But that does not happen." "Will not it have gone out from this room?" "You." "Charles Leverson it enters in the office." "It has not anything saying..." "While seeing which Sir Reuben is killed, it goes away." "Then, Mademoiselle Naylor it enters in the office and it finds the body of Sir Reuben, using the opportunity to take the dossier what is so important for his brother." "The Lily already told him what it happened." "He wanted to be wrong, link them to me it did not kill it!" "My ladies and my men," "I study the psychology, and, along this case," "I did not look for the man or the woman with I me form, since I me form it is in you a valve of security." "No." "I looked for a patient person, what it fulfilled during much time the paper of wronged one." "What entered sorrateiramente in the office, what was hidden behind the curtain, what was hemmed in, and what finally committed the act of violence repressed there is so much time." "It was the man who was hidden behind the curtain." "It was the man whom he murdered Sir Reuben Astwell, Mr. Trefusis." "It waited that the house it was empty and in silence." "Then it returned for his room, leaving a man killed in the ground." "That is totally absurd." " Because it would like to kill it?" " In the dossier of the Astoprene," "I noticed a contract what has his signature." "It looks that the man it used like instrument the development of the invention of the Mr. Naylor." "He was going to become a very rich man." "It was manufactured for the enterprise Astwell." "But if the process was licensed in another siege, since there was said he for his German colleagues, which value would have his contract?" "Absolutely none." "He was a tyrant, a liar," "and a swindler." "I think that few ones would be going to disagree of his analysis of the character of Sir Reuben." "Call, Mademoiselle Naylor, his brother is satisfied with the offered terms for the Mr. Victor Astwell?" "They were quite generous." "Captain Hastings, a hole with a shot." "A hole with a shot." "Beauty queen Lemon, the Captain Hastings it has the whole intellectual power..." "Exactamente, Poirot." "I do not believe..." "Translation and Legendagem Daisy Pacheco / CRISTBET, Lda."
