What was wrong with the man's story?这个男人的故事有什么问题吗？
'At the time the murder was committed, I was travelling on the 8 o'clock train to London,' said the man.“谋杀案发生的时候，我正在乘坐早上8点的火车前往伦敦，”那名男子说道。
'Do you always catch such an early train?' asked the inspector.“你总是这么早赶火车吗？”检查员问道。
'Of course I do,' answered the man.“当然了，”那个男人回答道。
'I must be at work at 10 o'clock.我必须在10点钟去上班。
My employer will confirm that I was there on time.'我的雇主会证实我确实准时到达了。
'Would a later train get you to work on time?' asked the inspector.“晚一点的火车能让你准时到达工作地点吗？”检查员问道。
'I suppose it would, but I never catch a later train.'“我想应该是这样的，但我从来都赶不上晚点的火车。”
'At what time did you arrive at the station?'你什么时候到达车站的？
'At ten to eight. I bought a paper and waited for the train.'八点十分的时候，我买了一张报纸，然后等待火车的到来。
'And you didn't notice anything unusual?'“那你没有注意到任何异常的情况吗？”
'Of course not.'“当然不会。”
'I suggest,' said the inspector,' that you are not telling the truth.“我认为，”检查员说，“你并没有说实话。”
I suggest that you did not catch the 8 o'clock train, but that you caught the 8.25 which would still get you to work on time.我认为你可能没有赶上8点的火车。不过你赶上了8点25分的班车，这样仍然可以准时到达工作地点。
You see, on the morning of the murder, the 8 o'clock train did not run at all.你知道吗，在谋杀案发生的那个早晨，8点的火车根本就没有运行。
It broke down at Ferngreen station and was taken off the line.'它在费恩格林车站发生了故障，随后被从铁路上撤下（即不再允许列车在该站停靠或通过）。
