Regarding the open ending, answer a person’s online question about the ending

Question: I recently watched "The Murder in the Bathroom" in 1955. The plot and ending design of the film is indeed classic, much like Hitchcock’s approach, but I still have a lot of questions about the ending. I hope that fans of the suspense empire will reach Someone can give me some pointers.

1. Did the heroine die in the end? Was what the last little boy said true, or did he lie this time?

2. Does the heroine really have heart disease? The doctor once said that she was extremely ill, but in the end the principal said that she did pretend to be.

3. If the heroine is not dead, it is to cooperate with the detective to make them act automatically, but in the end, the principal got the heroine's pulse. How can this be explained?

4. If the heroine is not dead, why not show up and give up the entire school industry? How to explain?

5. Or maybe the film has an open ending, but I really want to know the director's own intentions and how to explain this ending.
My explanation: (please add if you are not detailed, please point out if there is an error)
1. The hostess did not die 2. There was no heart disease. The doctor and mistress were in the same group. You can tell when you say hello during the photo. 3. The pulse may be touched casually, and the pulse will not be scared to death at that time. Stop, the male protagonist may not feel the pulse and raise her hand to see if there is any strength for a living person. It is also possible that if the female protagonist is really calculating, she can take medicine in advance, and suspended her pulse at critical moments. There are also medicines for the heartbeat. The police reminded her in advance that it was tonight, and she might not have time to take the medicine. 4 is the key point. Regarding the issue of giving up the property without showing up, if you show up, what is the sin of his husband and mistress? Deliberate attempted murder? The kind of murder intended to scare people to death was probably not easy to convict at that time. She wanted to get rid of her husband so much, and with so many calculations, she must want her husband and mistress to disappear forever, so how could she show up? The child stood for 6 hours without being punished for the first time. What I remember is that he said later that he himself did not see the principal. Others asked him why he said he did not see it again. He said that I have been fined for standing for 6 hours, and I don't want to be fined anymore. Is he going to lie in the end and risk being punished to stand? In the end, he would rather continue to go to the station where he was fined instead of denying that he did see the hostess. If a child can do this, it is obvious that he has actually seen it this time. Then you should be able to figure it out

    The 1955 thriller was so awesome that I didn't even dare to breathe for the last ten minutes! Yes, you may have guessed what was going on in the middle, but it didn’t stop the sound of water being released, the soldiers climbing into the trunk to hitch a ride, throwing corpses in a bamboo basket in the middle of the night, receiving a suit from a dry cleaner, and a sink. No corpses, and the horror of the last ten minutes of footsteps, typing, corpses in the bathtub. The old police detective and others appearing only after they are dead is also very speechless, so people should not have evil thoughts, otherwise they will always punish you in a certain way. The beauty of the old black and white movies is really unrepeatable and can be called a classic.

    I don't know if it was the first time I thought a French film was good. . I also thought of Norman's mother in the figure in the window, but as a fat fan of Feixi, I think this is much better looking, funny, and the two female protagonists are cute (so the stereotype that French men are very wretched still hasn't been broken). . The suspenseful haunting is a bit long for me, but the ending is worth waiting for. I am very happy that the mentally handicapped guessed the trick a second before the reveal. .
