Lombard wakes up early this morning and things are fishy. rogers the butler hasn't gotten up to make some breakfast like he always does, he walks around and sees everyone except for one which is Emily brent. could it be her? but still no one sees any signs of rogers soon, Emily walks through the front door seems like shes been outside but the weather is very bad at the moment so why would she be outside? then everyone realizes an Indian figure has been missing so definitely someone died and the only person that it could really be is Rogers! the poem says "one chopped himself and then there were 6" they did find roger and sadly he was dead and has died the way the poem states it. Vera reads the next verse in the poem and says someone will die by getting stung by a bee "A bumblebee stung one and then there were 5". so we all know how the next person is dying we just don't know who!
In this chapter everyone has gathered up to discuss everything going on and also discuss who everyone thinks the killer is and everyone agrees on Emily but that is not possible because shes dead already! that just threw the reader (me) off because I thought it was her because she was out during rogers death. prior to her death she was not feeling very well she was having many flashbacks with her past and the person she murdered (Beatrice Taylor). They found Emily with a syringe in her neck, and the only one that would have a syringe is Armstrong because hes a doctor and he had bought a case with medical things, Everyone rushes to his room to check to see if he still has it and they see that the syringe is not there anymore!! After this Justice Wargrave thinks the best idea is to lock up any type of weapons people own that way there wont be anymore suspicious people. Lombard owns a gun so he wants to put that away but when he goes to look for it, it has disappeared! Now what they will do is search each and every bedroom and strip off their clothing to see which one of them is the murderer.
