"
Well
,
we
ve
got
proof
enough
of
that
.
We
ve
got
Miss
Flora
Ackroyd
s
evidence
.
"
"
That
she
said
goodnight
to
her
uncle
?
But
me
I
do
not
always
believe
what
a
young
lady
tells
me
no
,
not
even
when
she
is
charming
and
beautiful
.
"
"
But
hang
it
all
,
man
,
Parker
saw
her
coming
out
of
the
door
.
"
"
No
.
"
Poirot
s
voice
rang
out
with
sudden
sharpness
.
"
That
is
just
what
he
did
not
see
.
I
satisfied
myself
of
that
by
a
little
experiment
the
other
day
you
remember
,
doctor
?

Parker
saw
her
outside
the
door
,
with
her
hand
on
the
handle
.
He
did
not
see
her
come
out
of
the
room
.
"
"
But
where
else
could
she
have
been
?
"
"
Perhaps
on
the
stairs
.
"
"
The
stairs
?
"
"
That
is
my
little
idea
yes
.
"
"
But
those
stairs
only
lead
to
Mr
.
Ackroyd
s
bedroom
.
"
"
Precisely
.
"
And
still
the
inspector
stared
.
"
You
think
she
d
been
up
to
her
uncle
s
bedroom
?
Well
,
why
not
?
Why
should
she
lie
about
it
?
"
"
Ah
!
that
is
just
the
question
.
It
depends
on
what
she
was
doing
there
,
does
it
not
?
"
"
You
mean
the
money
?
Hang
it
all
,
you
don
t
suggest
that
it
was
Miss
Ackroyd
who
took
that
forty
pounds
?
"
"
I
suggest
nothing
,
"
said
Poirot
.
"
But
I
will
remind
you
of
this
.
Life
was
not
very
easy
for
that
mother
and
daughter
.
There
were
bills
there
was
constant
trouble
over
small
sums
of
money
.
Roger
Ackroyd
was
a
peculiar
man
over
money
matters
.
The
girl
might
be
at
her
wits
"
end
for
a
comparatively
small
sum
.
Figure
to
yourself
then
what
happens
.
She
has
taken
the
money
,
she
descends
the
little
staircase
.
When
she
is
half
-
way
down
she
hears
the
chink
of
glass
from
the
hall
.
She
has
not
a
doubt
of
what
it
is
Parker
coming
to
the
study
.
At
all
costs
she
must
not
be
found
on
the
stairs
Parker
will
not
forget
it
,
he
will
think
it
odd
.
If
the
money
is
missed
,
Parker
is
sure
to
remember
having
seen
her
come
down
those
stairs
.
She
has
just
time
to
rush
down
to
the
study
door
with
her
hand
on
the
handle
to
show
that
she
has
just
come
out
,
when
Parker
appears
in
the
doorway
.
She
says
the
first
thing
that
comes
into
her
head
,
a
repetition
of
Roger
Ackroyd
s
orders
earlier
in
the
evening
,
and
then
goes
upstairs
to
her
own
room
.
"
"
Yes
,
but
later
,
"
persisted
the
inspector
,
"
she
must
have
realized
the
vital
importance
of
speaking
the
truth
?
Why
,
the
whole
case
hinges
on
it
!
"
"
Afterwards
,
"
said
Poirot
drily
,
"
it
was
a
little
difficult
for
Mademoiselle
Flora
.
She
is
told
simply
that
the
police
are
here
and
that
there
has
been
a
robbery
.
Naturally
she
jumps
to
the
conclusion
that
the
theft
of
the
money
has
been
discovered
.
Her
one
idea
is
to
stick
to
her
story
.
When
she
learns
that
her
uncle
is
dead
she
is
panic
-
stricken
.
Young
women
do
not
faint
nowadays
,
monsieur
,
without
considerable
provocation
.
Eh
bien
!
there
it
is
.
She
is
bound
to
stick
to
her
story
,
or
else
confess
everything
.
And
a
young
and
pretty
girl
does
not
like
to
admit
that
she
is
a
thief
-
especially
before
those
whose
esteem
she
is
anxious
to
retain
.

"
I
ll
not
believe
it
,
"
he
said
.
"
It
s
it
s
not
credible
.
And
you
you
ve
known
this
all
along
?
"
"
The
possibility
has
been
in
my
mind
from
the
first
,
"
admitted
Poirot
.
"
I
was
always
convinced
that
Mademoiselle
Flora
was
hiding
something
from
us
.
To
satisfy
myself
,
I
made
the
little
experiment
I
told
you
of
.
Dr
Sheppard
accompanied
me
.
"
"
A
test
for
Parker
,
you
said
it
was
,
"
I
remarked
bitterly
.
"
Mon
ami
,
"
said
Poirot
apologetically
,
"
as
I
told
you
at
the
time
,
one
must
say
something
.
"
The
inspector
rose
.
