Lesson87 A perfect alibi
'At the time themurder was committed, I was traveling on the 8.0 o'clock train to London,' saidthe man.
'Do you alwayscatch such an early train?' asked the inspector.
'Of course I do,'answered the man.' I must be at work at 10.0 o'clock. My employer will confirmthat I was there on time.'
' Would a later train get you to work ontime ?' asked the inspector. ' I suppose it would, but I never catch a latertrain.'
'At what time didyou arrive at the station ?'
'At ten to eight.I bought a paper and waited for the train.' 'And you didn't notice anythingunusual ?'
' Of course not.'
'I suggest,' saidthe inspector, 'that you are not telling the truth. I suggest that you did notcatch the 8.0 o'clock train, but that you caught the 8.25 which would still getyou to work on time. You see, on the morning of the murder, the 8.0 o'clocktrain did not run at all. It broke down at Ferngreen station and was taken offthe line.'
