Three Character Girl
Breach out
"Commissioner Saga and Rani looked at each other, and then the waiter resumed the story, and again both listened to the servant's story.
"With my own eyes I saw you take down the insect repellent from the evening shelf. And didn't Mister jump when he saw me watching him. Mistress's porridge was on the table, ready to be delivered to her. There is no food that I will eat while I am in this house! Not even if I wanted it so much!" the waiter explained.
"Where is the home of the doctor who treated your mistress?" ask Rani.
"Dr. Adams. At the end of High Street. House on second order." replied the waiter.
"All right, thanks for the information. Excuse us!" exclaimed Commissioner Saga who reached out to shake hands with the waiter and was followed by Rani.
Commissioner Saga left the servant and was followed by his wife, they hurried away.
"He said he didn't want to say anything, but he said too much!" grouse Rani.
Commissioner Saga smacked his fist in the palm of his other hand, signifying his frustration.
"So this is how I've been all this time, Ran, I boasted of my brain and now I'm losing one life. The life of the one who came to me to be saved. I never dreamed everything would happen this fast. May God forgive me. But I didn't expect anything to happen. To me, the story sounds like a far-fetched one." lamented commissioner Saga and they had reached the parking lot where their bikes were parked.
Then the two got on the motorcycle and drove to the address indicated by the waiter.
And a few minutes later they had reached where they were headed.
"We arrived at the doctor's house. Let's see what he can say to us" commissioner Saga said as they stopped in front of their home.
Dr. Adams was a smart village doctor, his face red, just as depicted in fictional stories. He received the commissioners Saga and Rani quite politely, but once he learned of our intention, his red face turned crimson.
"Fuck up! It's bullshit! Every word of that story is nonsense! Didn't I witness the incident myself! Stomach inflammation - just stomach inflammation. Quite simple. The city was a fertile place for gossip - many scandals; old women gathered and they all wanted. They read all kinds of fucking newspapers. They are very happy if there are more people who died because of poisoning. They imagined a bottle of weed-killing liquid on the shelf - and suddenly! - floating their imaginary power uncontrollably. I know Edward Pengelley - he wouldn't poison his grandmother's dog. Why did he poison his wife? Tell me, why!" the doctor exclaimed furiously.
"There is one thing, Doctor, that you may not know yet" said concisely Commissioner Saga who then recounted the outline of Mrs Pengelley's visit to her.
No one was more astonished than Doctor Adams. Both of his eyes almost came out of place.
"May God bless me" he suddenly shouted.
"The poor lady must have gone mad. Why didn't he tell me. That's what he's supposed to do." the doctor continued
"Is the fear of the deceased laughable?" ask commissioner Saga.
"No. Not at all. May I begin to understand." replied dr. Adams.
Commissioner Saga looked at him and smiled. The doctor was clearly very agitated even though he was trying to cover it up. When Commissioner Saga and Rani leave the house, Commissioner Saga's laughter breaks out.
"Ha.ha ...! He's stubborn like a pig. That doctor. He's already said stomach inflammation, because it's still stomach inflammation. Though his mind is restless" said commissioner Saga who laughed at the attitude of the doctor he just met.
"What's our next move?"ask the curious Rani.
"Go back to the inn and spend a horrible night on the bed" replied commissioner Saga.
"And tomorrow?" ask Rani.
"We have to go back to the city and wait for developments to happen" replied commissioner Saga.
"Hm, so passive," muttered the disappointed Rani.
"There must be, I dare to promise it. Our old doctor can give us as many letters as he wants. But he could not stop the rumbling of hundreds of tongues. And those people are gossiping for a reason. I'm sure of this." explained Commissioner Saga.
The train that took to the city departed at 11:00 the next day. Before leaving for the station, Poirot expressed his desire to meet with Freda Stanton, the nephew mentioned by the late house. It was easy to find the house he rented.
Confused, the introduction of the tall, dark-skinned young man with whom he was with, Jacob Radnor. Freda Stanton is an amazingly beautiful girl, with a Cornish beauty - her hair and eyes are dark and her cheeks are pink. The glint of his two eyes showed it was unwise to stir up his anger.
"Poor aunt," said the girl as commissioner Saga introduced herself and explained her arrival.
"It's sad. All this morning I thought if only I had been kinder and more patient" Freda said.
"You've had a lot of restraint, Freda," Radnor interrupted.
"Sister and I know this. After all, it was just Auntie's stupidity. I should have laughed and not dizzy. Of course it makes no sense that Bibi thinks that Uncle is poisoning him. Bibi's condition was indeed worse after eating whatever the Uncle served. But I guess it's only because Auntie has such thoughts. Aunty imagined what would happen to her, then she really experienced it." Freda explained.
"What is the real reason for your disagreement, Miss Ferda?" ask the curious Rani.
Freda hesitated, then looked at Radnor. The young man quickly caught the signal.
"I have to go, Freda. See you tonight. Goodbye, ladies and gentlemen. I thought you were on your way to the station." said Radnor who guessed.
Commissioner Saga agrees and Radnor passes.
"You're engaged, right?" ask Rani.
Miss Freda's face flushed red and she acknowledged her engagement to Radnor.
"This is actually Bibi's whole issue" he added.
"He doesn't agree the young man became your partner?" ask Commissioner Saga who is trying to guess
"Oh, not that far. But you know, Auntie." said the girl who then stopped.
"Yes, can you continue?" asked the curious Rani and encouraged Freda to proceed gently.
"It sounds kind of awful to talk about Auntie. Aunt is gone now. However, you will never understand unless I explain that Aunt is infatuated with Radnor." replied Freda.
"Really?"ask the curious commissioner Saga.
