Poirot
shook
his
head
.
The
French
police
would
make
no
mistake
of
that
kind
.
Besides
,
once
he
had
attained
his
object
,
and
the
Prime
Minister
was
safely
abducted
,
there
would
not
be
much
point
in
his
remaining
behind
.
His
accomplices
could
have
gagged
and
chloroformed
him
,
of
course
,
but
I
fail
to
see
what
object
they
hoped
to
accomplish
by
it
.
He
can
be
of
little
use
to
them
now
,
for
,
until
the
circumstances
concerning
the
Prime
Minister
have
been
cleared
up
,
he
is
bound
to
be
closely
watched
.
Perhaps
he
hoped
to
start
the
police
on
a
false
scent
?
Then
why
did
he
not
do
so
?
He
merely
says
that
something
was
pressed
over
his
nose
and
mouth
,
and
that
he
remembers
nothing
more
.
There
is
no
false
scent
there
.
It
sounds
remarkably
like
the
truth
.

Well
,
I
said
,
glancing
at
the
clock
,
I
suppose
we
d
better
start
for
the
station
.
You
may
find
more
clues
in
France
.
Possibly
,
mon
ami
,
but
I
doubt
it
.
It
is
still
incredible
to
me
that
the
Prime
Minister
has
not
been
discovered
in
that
limited
area
,
where
the
difficulty
of
concealing
him
must
be
tremendous
.
If
the
military
and
the
police
of
two
countries
have
not
found
him
,
how
shall
I
?
At
Charing
Cross
we
were
met
by
Mr
.
Dodge
.

This
is
Detective
Barnes
,
of
Scotland
Yard
,
and
Major
Norman
.
They
will
hold
themselves
entirely
at
your
disposal
.
Good
luck
to
you
.
It
s
a
bad
business
,
but
I
ve
not
given
up
hope
.
Must
be
off
now
.
And
the
Minister
strode
rapidly
away
.
We
chatted
in
a
desultory
fashion
with
Major
Norman
.
In
the
centre
of
the
little
group
of
men
on
the
platform
I
recognized
a
little
ferret
-
faced
fellow
talking
to
a
tall
,
fair
man
.
He
was
an
old
acquaintance
of
Poirot
s
Detective
-
Inspector
Japp
,
supposed
to
be
one
of
the
smartest
of
Scotland
Yard
s
officers
.
He
came
over
and
greeted
my
friend
cheerfully
.
I
heard
you
were
on
this
job
too
.
Smart
bit
of
work
.
So
far
they
ve
got
away
with
the
goods
all
right
.
But
I
can
t
believe
they
can
keep
him
hidden
long
.
Our
people
are
going
through
France
with
a
toothcomb
.
So
are
the
French
.
I
can
t
help
feeling
it
s
only
a
matter
of
hours
now
.
