Agatha Christie ABC Murders: Inspect the tobacco shop's surroundings

Leave the bedroom and the shop.

Look at the owner of fruit and vegetable shop (three clues): an extinguished cigarette, a full ashtray and a box of matches. Pay also close attention to a bottle of poor quality vinegar (with really strong odour).

Ask woman about her relationship with the victim (1 ego points) or about the strawberries (1 ego points) or ask about the price of lettuces (3 ego points). If you choose the last option accuse Mrs Bodley of lying about the price (3 ego points + 1 ego points) or ask about the price of two lettuces (1 ego points). Then accuse her of making fun of you (1 ego points), suggest she was in the tobacco shop yesterday (3 ego points) and accuse her of murder (3 ego points). Finally, ask if she wasn't alarmed (1 ego point +3 ego points) or accuse her of stealth.

After all conversation you will get the trophy - Rustic confessional. In Poirot's notebook you will find information about next suspect (Nancy Bodley).

Finally, talk with Japp.
