The First Classical Detective in the Golden Age —— Herchul Bailo

"The real work is always on this head. Gray brain cells, remember, remember, all by gray brain cells, my friend. 」

Hector Barrow is one of the most outstanding and popular detectives in the history of literature. His personality is very unique and distinctive. He is very picky, unpretentious, covered in brand-name leather shoes, with an air beard on his face, and very maverick.

Thanks to a large number of works featuring him, including 34 novels and 55 short stories, he has also become one of the most famous detectives.

Because He Qiule Bailuo has solved many cases, he is also willing to mention the past. In addition, his life is more widely known than many other detectives in The Curtain of the Case (1975), which was investigated before his death.

As he always said, Hector Bello is a patriotic Belgian. /kloc-Born near Spa in the 9th century, his parents are devout Catholics. Although the process of growing up is not clear, it can be guessed that he went to college and also had good attainments in classical literature.

This can be seen from many of his quotations. From his performance in Hercules' Great Achievements (1947), we can see that he knows all about Hercules, a Greek mythological figure of the same name.

As an adult, he moved to Brussels to work for the police. He was smart, diligent and capable, and soon became the most respected member of the police. At that time, the police officer of Scotland Yard met him. At that time, they were all investigating the forgery of Abercrombie in Brussels.

/kloc-around 0/904, Bai Luo resigned from the Belgian police for unknown reasons and began his career as a private detective. Soon it was praised and praised, and its reputation was greatly shaken, far beyond Europe.

He and police officer Jeppe met again when handling the Atlas case in Antwerp. Before World War I, he also met Captain Arthur Hastings. At that time, both of them were involved in the case of London Lord Company, which worked in Hastings.

After the outbreak of World War I, the Germans invaded Belgium, and Bailo was forced to take refuge in Britain. Thanks to the kindness of the rich Emily Ingaissa, Bailuo and other Belgian talents were able to live in St. Mary Starr in the village of Lisa Vezaan.

It was at this time that Bai Luo and Hastings met again-Hastings was injured in the Western Front and was recuperating here-and they were soon described in detail in The Stallone Murder.

Bai Luo and Hastings are good friends and have a good cooperation, so they live at No.0/4, Walway Street, London. Hastings is Bai Luo's assistant and treasurer.

A few years later, after completing the case described in The Mystery of Golf Course, Hastings married Lucy Dufan and went to Argentina. After that, Hastings only came back occasionally to help his friends deal with some important cases, such as the case against the international criminal organization known as the Four Devils.

Tired of the Bailuo case, he retired to grow vegetables in the country. He settled in Lachy, kimble, and got along well with his neighbors, especially Dr. James Shep, his sister Caroline, and Roger Ekchloe.

Although Bai Luo claims to be retired, it is inevitable that he will use his detective skills. Later, Roger akerley was murdered. It was he who solved this terrible case and brought the murderer to justice.

After that, the Belgian realized that he didn't like retirement, so he moved back to London to continue his old job. The new house is located in Huaihai Fenlou-because the architectural pattern is square and the proportion is symmetrical. The correct address is a bit doubtful, because in some cases, such as the cat in the pigeon, it is said to be No.28 White House Building. )

Miss Felicity Mona Lee, an equally scrawny secretary who works for Mr. Parker Pan, is also hired to manage documents. George, a calm and loyal personal servant, is in charge of his daily life.

George took care of him until his death. Bailuo's telephone number is Cuifaga 8 137. He rented a house under the pseudonym of Mr O 'Connor.

In the next ten years, as a world-class chief detective, Bai Luo handled cases all over Europe and the Middle East, and was deeply cared for by the royal family and top social circles.

As he comes from Belgium and is a foreigner after all, he can get rid of the traditional burden involved in British society and observe impartially.

His friendship with Captain Arthur Hastings and Mrs. Ariana Olivia is more conducive to expanding his social tentacles. As Gilian Gee said in agatha christie: She and Her Detective Novels, "Captain Hastings' family background is good only by looking at his surname and rank; Ariane Olivia is shy, but she always knows someone she should know.

With the help of these two friends, Bailuo was able to get in and out of Steyr House and other places, and let the suspects in the upper class show the cloven foot in the chat. 」

Later, some cases of Bailuo were co-organized by Ms. Ariane Olivia. She is both a good friend and a good companion. She took it out on him and looked down on modern social life (1960s). Bai Luo's serious indifference to modern culture is clearly written in The Third Girl. The more Bai Luoyue handled the case, the more he felt disconnected from the real world and more and more isolated, which reached its climax when he handled the last case.

The vain old detective insisted on dyeing his sparse hair and wearing his favorite old-fashioned clothes. In the curtain, when Hastings visited an old friend in Starr village, where they cooperated to solve the case for the first time, he was dismayed to find that Bailuo, who was suffering from arthritis, could only walk in a wheelchair: "I can still eat by myself, but I have to take care of other aspects like a baby. 」

However, even though his life was dying, Bai Luo solved the last case, pushed away the life-prolonging pills and bid farewell to his old friend:

"Goodbye, my dear friend. I have taken the cardiotonic away from the bed. I would rather give myself to Almighty God (French). May his punishment or pity come soon! 」

"We can't chase fugitives together, my friend. The first time ... the last time was done here.

"What a wonderful time. 」

"Yes, this is a good time. 」

The news of Hector Barrow's death was published in1The New York Times on August 6th, 975. Headline report:

Belgian detective Hector Bello died.

White snail with egg head and moustache

The well-known image of Hector Bailuo was established by Captain Hastings in The Murder of Stall Village: "Bailuo looks very special. He is less than five feet four inches tall, but he has extremely noble sentiments. His head is shaped like an egg and always leans to one side. There is a straight and neat moustache on the upper lip. Keep your whole body spotless. I believe, if given a choice, he would rather be shot in the body than get dirty dust on his clothes. 」

Bailuo not only pays too much attention to neatness, but also insists on wearing brand-name leather shoes, even in rural areas, he should wear other kinds of shoes. Therefore, several times when he was forced to travel long distances, his leather shoes brought him great pain.

He always wears a well-tailored striped suit and vest, and carries the ancestral "radish face big cover watch". Because he never exercises-even when investigating a case, he tries to avoid labor and respect his body-he has poor physical strength and prefers to leave all his energy to "little gray brain cells."

Bai Luo seems to enjoy his strange appearance. He laughed at all the satire and bash elbows and said that these jokes "provided entertainment for many winters to come." "He told the truth about his appearance.

In Cat among Pigeons, he is "ready to overthrow the narrow prejudice that the headmistress (in this case, the respectable and terrible Miss Buster) may have against foreigners wearing old-fashioned pointed shoes and beards." This is Hector. Bai Luo, if the world wants to accept him, it must accept him in full, including all his gorgeous appearance.

Order-oriented major

"Order" is everything to white snails. His world and specialty were established according to order and methods. Therefore, he has a careful organization and plan for his daily work and activities. He chose to live in the Fen (or Waihaosi) building in the open sea just because he likes its symmetrical pattern. His clothes must be kept neat and beautiful. Besides, he hired Miss Mona Lee because she is efficient and slim.

When everything goes wrong, Bai Luo is extremely unhappy. In the short story "The Deer of Akadan", Bai Luo was annoyed that his Mercedes-Benz Glaz luxury car was "not as perfect as expected in mechanical performance". The young well-paid driver failed to repair it. 」

He was frightened when someone suggested that he rent a car to move on. "His Latin frugality was offended. Rent a car? He already has a car, and it is an expensive car. 」

There is no denying that Bai Luo pays too much attention to appearance and neatness, which is a ridiculous vanity. He personally admitted to Detective Spencer in The Halloween Murder that although he was old, he didn't have white hair because "I took good care of him with hair dye. 」

In Murder in the Sun, when he stayed at the Pirate Flag Hotel on the coast of Di Feng, he insisted on wearing a Panamanian straw hat and a spotless white suit, only worried that the weather was too hot, his beard would droop, or hair dye would flow to his collar.

Bai Luo's bad habit of abusing English is also impressive. He mixed French with everyday English. In Stallone's Murder, he said loudly, "Here is a table! (French)-Ah, my friend, living in a big house is not necessarily comfortable. 」

His syntax is also very strange, and he often talks to people as a father. For example, he insisted that some people, usually young women, call him Papa Poirot, and often called his work partner, Mom Amy (my friend, French). What's more, he is not modest and has a well-known reputation. Not only does he not care, but he also plays jokes on his friends.

A well-loved good relationship

White snails are loved by many classes and professionals. After decades of handling cases, he has a very deep friendship with the Scottish Police and the local police. He used to be a policeman himself, and he knew policemen like James Geppe and Detective Beto. The police are willing to cooperate with him and let him enter and leave the crime scene immediately. They are not very interested in Miss Ma Puer.

Bai Luo certainly has enemies, such as detective Crowe in ABC murder and Gieh of Paris Security Bureau in the mystery of golf course. However, his achievements speak for themselves, and these enemies have disappeared from his long list of successes.

Bai Luo is associated with powerful people, so he often goes in and out of the top restaurants and hotels (as his trip to the Orient Express can prove), wandering between the royal family and the rich. Because he has handled countless cases for the upper class and kept his mouth shut, they dare to entrust him with even the most sensitive issues, such as rescuing Prime Minister Macadam in the prime minister's kidnapping case, or investigating the murder of Ruth Kettering, looking for red treasures in The Secret of the Blue Express and so on.

He also kept close contact with the super-rich Mr. Shattana, Sir Henry Ancat, Lord Edgeway and Simon Lee, and solved their reprehensible murders.

Bai Luo has few friends. He is familiar with George (he is by no means a casual acquaintance), Miss Mona Lee (she only regards him as the boss) and Detective Mr. Kirby (Bai Luo sometimes regards him as a subcontractor), but they are not friends. He has known Colonel Johnny Rice, Inspector Beitou and Inspector Jiepai for a long time, and they get along well, but they are not close friends. Only three people can be called true friends.

Mrs. Ariane Olivia is one of them. Bai Luo likes her very much. She is his good partner in solving crimes. They are both close in age and opinion. Captain Hastings is closer to him. Throughout Bai Luo's life, he was loyal to him and keen to record important events in his life. The last one is Countess Willa Rosakov, the only woman he fell in love with.

Using gray brain cells

Not only is Bai Luo's private life controlled by order and methods, but so is his detective career. For him, order is everything. As Captain Hastings wrote in The Question of Golf Course, "Order and method are his gods.

He is a little disdainful of relying on some concrete clues, such as footprints or ashes, and always says that clues alone can't solve the case. He would knock on his egg-shaped head, gloat and say with satisfaction, "The real work is always done here. Gray brain cells, remember, remember, all by gray brain cells, my friend. 」

Bai Luo resolutely opposes the handling methods of famous detectives such as Holmes. They are full of energy and carefully check fingerprints, shoe prints, falling soot or broken branches.

These things are only useful when Bailuo simulates the crime scene, and they are not helpful to find out the criminals. On the contrary, after the search, Bai Luo sat in a comfortable chair and operated his "small gray brain cells".

Although once mistaken for laziness and negativity, Bai Luo's method is actually as positive as other methods of crawling on the floor to find evidence. His energy is in his brain, in his heart.

There are several excellent examples to illustrate the brilliant achievements of the style of handling cases in vain. The most famous example is when the killer of Richter was tracked down on the Orient Express. The evidence in Calais showed that almost everyone in the carriage seemed guilty. Based on this clue, Bai Luo concentrated on asking the passengers in the car carefully and finally came to a wonderful and correct conclusion. In Five Little Pigs, Bai Luo solved a mysterious murder that happened sixteen years ago. With few clues, Bai Luo solved the case by examining the testimonies of different witnesses. His reasoning is completely logical.

Bailo's most brilliant achievement was the rescue of Prime Minister David Macadam in the kidnapping case. He asked, "Do good detectives have to act? Does he have to be energetic, busy going in and out, picking up matches and cigarette butts, and busy looking for tire tracks through the glass on the dusty road? " Bailo won't do it. He sat in the hotel for five hours. "He didn't move. He blinked like a cat. I saw his green eyes flashing, and the more he blinked, the greener he became. " As a result, a complete victory was achieved.

There are people who don't believe in his ability. In order to prove the magic of his method, Bai Luo and Detective Geppe made a bet that he could solve the "Mr. Da Wenhai's disappearance case" without going out. He let Hastings run errands, correctly deduced the truth, and won the bet.

Bai Luo is not completely unable or unwilling to act. Just as Sherlock Holmes not only has to examine clues in detail, but also thinks deeply for a long time, Bailuo will summon up his strength to hunt down criminals. His handling of the "Four Devils" international criminal organizations is brilliant and admirable. He also cleverly trapped a murderer in black coffee.

Among the wild boar in Elimane Mountain, he bravely arrested a bunch of murderers himself. Bai Luo is imaginative, flexible and more determined than the murderer he chased.

Agatha christie's genius lies in her first novel The Stallone Murder, published in 1920, which created the role of Hector Bello.

At the age of 25, she began to write a novel, hoping to become a detective.

Soon, it began to activate the detective's important task. She is familiar with the story of Sherlock Holmes and hopes to have an equally unforgettable role:

"I conclude that he is a Belgian detective. He can grow up with the role. He should be a detective, so that he can have a wealth of criminal knowledge. He has a neat personality-a neat little man. I can imagine that he is a neat little man who always keeps things in order … He must have a grand name, just like the Sherlock Holmes family … Hercules! Good name. But his last name is even harder to think of. I don't know why I chose the word Bailuo. Bailuo and Hercules are not suitable, and Hercules ... Hercules Bailuo, yes, I have decided on this name. Thank god. 」

The retired police officer was born. In the next half century, except for some minor changes, such as his hobby of growing vegetables, driving around in a China car, and his preference for modern art, he remained unchanged.

However, Christie has a little regret. She said that Bai Luo was too old when he first appeared, and only after the mysterious incident on the golf course did she find out: "Now I understand what a terrible mistake it was for Hercule Bai Luo to be too old when he first appeared ... I should give up using him after writing the third and fourth novels and write a much younger character from scratch. 」

But readers love Bailuo, and Christie can't get rid of this Belgian. Throughout her life, she couldn't get rid of this difficult detective.

Over the years, she has had enough, not only adding the role of Ms. Ariana Olivia to help, but even resorting to words to express Bai Luo's sense of powerlessness.

She alluded to Bai Luo through Ms. Olivia's comments on her character, detective Sven Hajsen (Ms. Olivia is a writer): "If one day I really meet that vegetarian Finnish thin monkey, I will kill him, which is more cruel than the killing method I invented before ... Readers always say how much they love me, a terrible detective Sven Hajsen. Do they know how much I hate him! But my publisher always says you can't say that. 」

During the Second World War, the Curtain detailing the tragic situation of Bailuo before his death was written, and perhaps Christie's Bailuo Knot finally got some relief.

She kept the manuscripts of the stories (including Sleeping to Death and Miss Ma Puer's Detective Case) in the bank safe for thirty years. During this period, Bai Luo's published books surpassed all other detectives (including Miss Ma Puer) and became the most popular detective in her works.

Hector Barrow's story became more popular after it was adapted into movies, plays and TV series. He was the first character in Christie's play, which was 1928' s "alibi".

The play is adapted from The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, starring Charlie Lavton. Three years later, the pseudonym was adapted into a movie starring Austin Trevor (minus the beard), which set a precedent and became the first character in Christie's works to leap onto the screen.

Forty-three years later, Murder on the Orient Express, the most successful film based on Christie's novel, was nominated for six Oscars (1975, Ingrid? Bergman won the best supporting actress), ten nominations from the British Academy of Motion Picture Arts (won the film score award and the best supporting actor and actress award), and the "Best Adapted Film Award" from the American Association of Inferior Writers. The audience was particularly fascinated by Albert Fini's wonderful performance as Bai Luo.

After the release of "Murder on the Orient Express", there was an upsurge of Bailuo nostalgia, and then a new Bailuo film was released.

At the beginning of this new century, Bailuo is still popular on TV. This Bailuo series, produced by London Weekend TV, stars David Sandfinch. He is the best Bai Luo actor, surpassing his predecessors such as Trevor, Fini, Lavton and Ustinov.
