Unless
,
"
objected
the
consul
,
"
he
is
exceptionally
shrewd
.
An
English
criminal
,
you
know
,
is
always
better
concealed
in
London
than
anywhere
else
.
"
This
observation
furnished
the
detective
food
for
thought
,
and
meanwhile
the
consul
went
away
to
his
office
.
Fix
,
left
alone
,
was
more
impatient
than
ever
,
having
a
presentiment
that
the
robber
was
on
board
the
Mongolia
.
If
he
had
indeed
left
London
intending
to
reach
the
New
World
,
he
would
naturally
take
the
route
via
India
,
which
was
less
watched
and
more
difficult
to
watch
than
that
of
the
Atlantic
.
But
Fix
's
reflections
were
soon
interrupted
by
a
succession
of
sharp
whistles
,
which
announced
the
arrival
of
the
Mongolia
.
The
porters
and
fellahs
rushed
down
the
quay
,
and
a
dozen
boats
pushed
off
from
the
shore
to
go
and
meet
the
steamer
.
Soon
her
gigantic
hull
appeared
passing
along
between
the
banks
,
and
eleven
o'clock
struck
as
she
anchored
in
the
road
.
She
brought
an
unusual
number
of
passengers
,
some
of
whom
remained
on
deck
to
scan
the
picturesque
panorama
of
the
town
,
while
the
greater
part
disembarked
in
the
boats
,
and
landed
on
the
quay
.
Fix
took
up
a
position
,
and
carefully
examined
each
face
and
figure
which
made
its
appearance
.
Presently
one
of
the
passengers
,
after
vigorously
pushing
his
way
through
the
importunate
crowd
of
porters
,
came
up
to
him
and
politely
asked
if
he
could
point
out
the
English
consulate
,
at
the
same
time
showing
a
passport
which
he
wished
to
have
visaed
.
Fix
instinctively
took
the
passport
,
and
with
a
rapid
glance
read
the
description
of
its
bearer
.
An
involuntary
motion
of
surprise
nearly
escaped
him
,
for
the
description
in
the
passport
was
identical
with
that
of
the
bank
robber
which
he
had
received
from
Scotland
Yard
.
"
Is
this
your
passport
?
"
asked
he
.
"
No
,
it
's
my
master
's
.
"
"
And
your
master
is
--
"
"
He
stayed
on
board
.
"
"
But
he
must
go
to
the
consul
's
in
person
,
so
as
to
establish
his
identity
.
"
"
Oh
,
is
that
necessary
?
"
"
Quite
indispensable
.
"
