You
do
not
intrude

nor
do
you
in
the
least
embarrass
my
project

Go
to

Passepartout
,
delighted
that
the
young
woman
,
who
was
very
gracious
to
him
,
was
going
to
continue
the
journey
with
them
,
went
off
at
a
brisk
gait
to
obey
his
master
's
order
.

Hong
Kong
is
an
island
which
came
into
the
possession
of
the
English
by
the
Treaty
of
Nankin
,
after
the
war
of
1842
;
and
the
colonising
genius
of
the
English
has
created
upon
it
an
important
city
and
an
excellent
port
.
The
island
is
situated
at
the
mouth
of
the
Canton
River
,
and
is
separated
by
about
sixty
miles
from
the
Portuguese
town
of
Macao
,
on
the
opposite
coast
.
Hong
Kong
has
beaten
Macao
in
the
struggle
for
the
Chinese
trade
,
and
now
the
greater
part
of
the
transportation
of
Chinese
goods
finds
its
depot
at
the
former
place
.
Docks
,
hospitals
,
wharves
,
a
Gothic
cathedral
,
a
government
house
,
macadamised
streets
,
give
to
Hong
Kong
the
appearance
of
a
town
in
Kent
or
Surrey
transferred
by
some
strange
magic
to
the
antipodes
.

Passepartout
wandered
,
with
his
hands
in
his
pockets
,
towards
the
Victoria
port
,
gazing
as
he
went
at
the
curious
palanquins
and
other
modes
of
conveyance
,
and
the
groups
of
Chinese
,
Japanese
,
and
Europeans
who
passed
to
and
fro
in
the
streets
.
Hong
Kong
seemed
to
him
not
unlike
Bombay
,
Calcutta
,
and
Singapore
,
since
,
like
them
,
it
betrayed
everywhere
the
evidence
of
English
supremacy
.
At
the
Victoria
port
he
found
a
confused
mass
of
ships
of
all
nations
:
English
,
French
,
American
,
and
Dutch
,
men-of-war
and
trading
vessels
,
Japanese
and
Chinese
junks
,
sempas
,
tankas
,
and
flower-boats
,
which
formed
so
many
floating
parterres
.
Passepartout
noticed
in
the
crowd
a
number
of
the
natives
who
seemed
very
old
and
were
dressed
in
yellow
.
On
going
into
a
barber
's
to
get
shaved
he
learned
that
these
ancient
men
were
all
at
least
eighty
years
old
,
at
which
age
they
are
permitted
to
wear
yellow
,
which
is
the
Imperial
colour
.
Passepartout
,
without
exactly
knowing
why
,
thought
this
very
funny
.

On
reaching
the
quay
where
they
were
to
embark
on
the
Carnatic
,
he
was
not
astonished
to
find
Fix
walking
up
and
down
.
The
detective
seemed
very
much
disturbed
and
disappointed
.
729
"
This
is
bad
,
"
muttered
Passepartout
,
"
for
the
gentlemen
of
the
Reform
Club
!
"
He
accosted
Fix
with
a
merry
smile
,
as
if
he
had
not
perceived
that
gentleman
's
chagrin
.
The
detective
had
,
indeed
,
good
reasons
to
inveigh
against
the
bad
luck
which
pursued
him
.
The
warrant
had
not
come
!
It
was
certainly
on
the
way
,
but
as
certainly
it
could
not
now
reach
Hong
Kong
for
several
days
;
and
,
this
being
the
last
English
territory
on
Mr.
Fogg
's
route
,
the
robber
would
escape
,
unless
he
could
manage
to
detain
him
.

"
Well
,
Monsieur
Fix
,
"
said
Passepartout
,
"
have
you
decided
to
go
with
us
so
far
as
America
?
"
