你抱怨說我的謀殺事件變得太文雅了，事實上是太貧血了。稱渴望一件「血淋淋的暴力謀殺」，一件不容質疑的謀殺案：

You have always been one of the most faithful and kind九*九*藏*書ly of my readers, and I was therefore seriously perturbed when I received from you a word oｒeａd•99ｃsｗ.cｏmf criticism.

你一直是我最忠實最寬容的讀者之一，正因為這樣，當我受到你一點兒批評，我就為此感到極大的不安。

這就是特別為你而作的故事。我希望它能讓你滿意。

我親愛的詹姆斯：

Your afｈｔtｐs://rｅad•9９ｃsｗ•cｏｍfectionate sister in law,Agatha

（此處「嫂子」應為「小姨」，為翻譯的誤譯；詹姆斯是阿加莎·克里斯蒂的姐夫）

So this is your special story-writt九*九*藏*書en for you. I hope it my please.

你摯愛的嫂子 阿加莎

You complained that my murders were getting too refined-anaemic, in fact. Y九-九-藏-書ou yearned for a "good violent murder with lots of blood." A murder where there was no doubt it's being murder!

My Dear James,
