Whether
she
would
find
a
protector
in
him
she
could
not
tell
;
but
Mr.
Fogg
essayed
to
calm
her
anxieties
,
and
to
assure
her
that
everything
would
be
mathematically
--
he
used
the
very
word
--
arranged
.
Aouda
fastened
her
great
eyes
,
"
clear
as
the
sacred
lakes
of
the
Himalaya
,
"
upon
him
;
but
the
intractable
Fogg
,
as
reserved
as
ever
,
did
not
seem
at
all
inclined
to
throw
himself
into
this
lake
.
The
first
few
days
of
the
voyage
passed
prosperously
,
amid
favourable
weather
and
propitious
winds
,
and
they
soon
came
in
sight
of
the
great
Andaman
,
the
principal
of
the
islands
in
the
Bay
of
Bengal
,
with
its
picturesque
Saddle
Peak
,
two
thousand
four
hundred
feet
high
,
looming
above
the
waters
.
The
steamer
passed
along
near
the
shores
,
but
the
savage
Papuans
,
who
are
in
the
lowest
scale
of
humanity
,
but
are
not
,
as
has
been
asserted
,
cannibals
,
did
not
make
their
appearance
.
The
panorama
of
the
islands
,
as
they
steamed
by
them
,
was
superb
.
Vast
forests
of
palms
,
arecs
,
bamboo
,
teakwood
,
of
the
gigantic
mimosa
,
and
tree-like
ferns
covered
the
foreground
,
while
behind
,
the
graceful
outlines
of
the
mountains
were
traced
against
the
sky
;
and
along
the
coasts
swarmed
by
thousands
the
precious
swallows
whose
nests
furnish
a
luxurious
dish
to
the
tables
of
the
Celestial
Empire
.
The
varied
landscape
afforded
by
the
Andaman
Islands
was
soon
passed
,
however
,
and
the
Rangoon
rapidly
approached
the
Straits
of
Malacca
,
which
gave
access
to
the
China
seas
.
What
was
detective
Fix
,
so
unluckily
drawn
on
from
country
to
country
,
doing
all
this
while
?
He
had
managed
to
embark
on
the
Rangoon
at
Calcutta
without
being
seen
by
Passepartout
,
after
leaving
orders
that
,
if
the
warrant
should
arrive
,
it
should
be
forwarded
to
him
at
Hong
Kong
;
and
he
hoped
to
conceal
his
presence
to
the
end
of
the
voyage
.
It
would
have
been
difficult
to
explain
why
he
was
on
board
without
awakening
Passepartout
's
suspicions
,
who
thought
him
still
at
Bombay
.
But
necessity
impelled
him
,
nevertheless
,
to
renew
his
acquaintance
with
the
worthy
servant
,
as
will
be
seen
.
All
the
detective
's
hopes
and
wishes
were
now
centred
on
Hong
Kong
;
for
the
steamer
's
stay
at
Singapore
would
be
too
brief
to
enable
him
to
take
any
steps
there
.
The
arrest
must
be
made
at
Hong
Kong
,
or
the
robber
would
probably
escape
him
for
ever
.
Hong
Kong
was
the
last
English
ground
on
which
he
would
set
foot
;
beyond
,
China
,
Japan
,
America
offered
to
Fogg
an
almost
certain
refuge
.
If
the
warrant
should
at
last
make
its
appearance
at
Hong
Kong
,
Fix
could
arrest
him
and
give
him
into
the
hands
of
the
local
police
,
and
there
would
be
no
further
trouble
.
But
beyond
Hong
Kong
,
a
simple
warrant
would
be
of
no
avail
;
an
extradition
warrant
would
be
necessary
,
and
that
would
result
in
delays
and
obstacles
,
of
which
the
rascal
would
take
advantage
to
elude
justice
.
Fix
thought
over
these
probabilities
during
the
long
hours
which
he
spent
in
his
cabin
,
and
kept
repeating
to
himself
,
"
Now
,
either
the
warrant
will
be
at
Hong
Kong
,
in
which
case
I
shall
arrest
my
man
,
or
it
will
not
be
there
;
and
this
time
it
is
absolutely
necessary
that
I
should
delay
his
departure
.
I
have
failed
at
Bombay
,
and
I
have
failed
at
Calcutta
;
if
I
fail
at
Hong
Kong
,
my
reputation
is
lost
:
Cost
what
it
may
,
I
must
succeed
!
But
how
shall
I
prevent
his
departure
,
if
that
should
turn
out
to
be
my
last
resource
?
"
Fix
made
up
his
mind
that
,
if
worst
came
to
worst
,
he
would
make
a
confidant
of
Passepartout
,
and
tell
him
what
kind
of
a
fellow
his
master
really
was
.
That
Passepartout
was
not
Fogg
's
accomplice
,
he
was
very
certain
.
The
servant
,
enlightened
by
his
disclosure
,
and
afraid
of
being
himself
implicated
in
the
crime
,
would
doubtless
become
an
ally
of
the
detective
.
But
this
method
was
a
dangerous
one
,
only
to
be
employed
when
everything
else
had
failed
.
A
word
from
Passepartout
to
his
master
would
ruin
all
.
The
detective
was
therefore
in
a
sore
strait
.
But
suddenly
a
new
idea
struck
him
.
The
presence
of
Aouda
on
the
Rangoon
,
in
company
with
Phileas
Fogg
,
gave
him
new
material
for
reflection
.
Who
was
this
woman
?
What
combination
of
events
had
made
her
Fogg
's
travelling
companion
?
They
had
evidently
met
somewhere
between
Bombay
and
Calcutta
;
but
where
?
Had
they
met
accidentally
,
or
had
Fogg
gone
into
the
interior
purposely
in
quest
of
this
charming
damsel
?
Fix
was
fairly
puzzled
.
He
asked
himself
whether
there
had
not
been
a
wicked
elopement
;
and
this
idea
so
impressed
itself
upon
his
mind
that
he
determined
to
make
use
of
the
supposed
intrigue
.
Whether
the
young
woman
were
married
or
not
,
he
would
be
able
to
create
such
difficulties
for
Mr.
Fogg
at
Hong
Kong
that
he
could
not
escape
by
paying
any
amount
of
money
.
