‌ In a part of the book, we read death among the clouds

After Thibaut left, the three of them tightened their seats a little. Jepp picked up his autograph and said:

– Well, let’s think and see what we have to do. There were eleven passengers on that plane; I mean the cockpit. We have nothing to do with the front hall at the moment. Eleven passengers and stewards, for a total of thirteen. One of these people killed the poor old woman, some of these passengers are English and some are French. I’s in charge of the French with Mr. Fournier and I am in charge of the British.

Fournier said:

Ms. Giselle did not just go to Paris. This past summer to several French coastal cities, such as Doyle, Le Pine, Vimro, traveled and traded with the people there. He also traveled to several southern cities, such as Antibes and Nice.

– You mentioned an important point. I now remember that one or two of Prometheus’ travelers were talking about their trip to Lupine. We should not forget them either. We also have to go to the scene of the murder and see which of the passengers was probably in a position to use the air cannon.
Next, he opened the large map of the airplane cabin and placed it on the table:

– Now we can check each and every passenger and the possibilities or even more importantly. Consider the possibilities so that we may reach a clue. First of all, we remove Poirot from the passengers’ faces and work on eleven others.

Poirot shook his head sadly and said:

Dear friend, you are an optimist and you trust everyone. It is not true. You should not trust anyone

To; To no one, not even me.

Jepp laughed and said:

-very well. if you would like; We will take you into account. Next. It is the turn of the hostesses. I think it is extremely unlikely that they did that. Because they are both good people. They do not have a bad record and do not seem to be the ones who can borrow a large amount of money from someone.

In another part of the book Death in the Clouds we read:

“He listened to the conversation between the two,” said Poirot.
– The papers you say at the bottom of the stairs and in a safe place, ma’am?
– Yes. it’s true.
Poirot smiled at him and said:
– But where there was no paper, ma’am. Where were they?
-That safe place was very old, Monsieur. No one could open it. In fact, the papers were kept elsewhere. In Madame Giselle’s bedroom.

Perhaps… Mrs. Ellis then paused and continued with some reflection:

– Yes. Madame Giselle pretended to her customers that the papers were kept at the bottom of the stairs and in a safe place. But in reality, everything in Madame Giselle’s bedroom.
– Can you show us her bedroom, Mademoiselle?
-Of course. The two men then went to the victim’s bedroom with Mademoiselle Grandier. Mrs. Grandier showed them a box. He opened the door and said:
– The papers are inside this box. They were kept in a large sealed envelope.

Fournier asked:
– Three days ago, when I asked you, you told me that you do not know anything about this!
– Mr. You asked me where the papers should be in a safe place. I also told you that I burned them. And he was right. I did not tell you anything untrue.
– Those papers should not be burning, madam.
– I just obeyed my master’s orders.
