As
I
came
out
again
,
I
cannoned
into
a
little
man
who
was
just
entering
.
I
drew
aside
and
apologised
,
when
suddenly
,
with
a
loud
exclamation
,
he
clasped
me
in
his
arms
and
kissed
me
warmly
.
“
Mon
ami
Hastings
!
”
he
cried
.
“
It
is
indeed
mon
ami
Hastings
!
”
“
Poirot
!
”
I
exclaimed
.
I
turned
to
the
pony
-
trap
.
“
This
is
a
very
pleasant
meeting
for
me
,
Miss
Cynthia
.
This
is
my
old
friend
,
Monsieur
Poirot
,
whom
I
have
not
seen
for
years
.
”
“
Oh
,
we
know
Monsieur
Poirot
,
”
said
Cynthia
gaily
.
“
But
I
had
no
idea
he
was
a
friend
of
yours
.
”
“
Yes
,
indeed
,
”
said
Poirot
seriously
.
“
I
know
Mademoiselle
Cynthia
.
It
is
by
the
charity
of
that
good
Mrs
.
Inglethorp
that
I
am
here
.
”
Then
,
as
I
looked
at
him
inquiringly
:
“
Yes
,
my
friend
,
she
had
kindly
extended
hospitality
to
seven
of
my
countrypeople
who
,
alas
,
are
refugees
from
their
native
land
.
We
Belgians
will
always
remember
her
with
gratitude
.
”
Poirot
was
an
extraordinary
looking
little
man
.
He
was
hardly
more
than
five
feet
,
four
inches
,
but
carried
himself
with
great
dignity
.
His
head
was
exactly
the
shape
of
an
egg
,
and
he
always
perched
it
a
little
on
one
side
.
His
moustache
was
very
stiff
and
military
.
The
neatness
of
his
attire
was
almost
incredible
.
I
believe
a
speck
of
dust
would
have
caused
him
more
pain
than
a
bullet
wound
.
Yet
this
quaint
dandified
little
man
who
,
I
was
sorry
to
see
,
now
limped
badly
,
had
been
in
his
time
one
of
the
most
celebrated
members
of
the
Belgian
police
.
As
a
detective
,
his
flair
had
been
extraordinary
,
and
he
had
achieved
triumphs
by
unravelling
some
of
the
most
baffling
cases
of
the
day
.
He
pointed
out
to
me
the
little
house
inhabited
by
him
and
his
fellow
Belgians
,
and
I
promised
to
go
and
see
him
at
an
early
date
.
Then
he
raised
his
hat
with
a
flourish
to
Cynthia
,
and
we
drove
away
.
