"The Bic Founds,

’ CHAPTER XXXI Even now I can hardly bear to write of those days in March. Poirot—th* unique, the inimitable Hercule Poirot —dead! There was a particularly diabolical touch in the disarranged match-box, which was certain to catch his eye, and which he would hasten to rearrange —and thereby touch off the explosion. That, as a matter of fact, it was I who actually precipitated the catastrophe never ceased to fill me with unavailing remorse. It was, as Doctor Ridgeway said, a perfect miracle that I had not been killed, but h*d escaped with a slight concussion. 'Although it had seemed to me as though I regained consciousness alUlost immediately, it was in reality •yer twenty-four hours before I Stime back to life. It was not until ihe evening of the day following that I was able to stagger feebly into an adjoining room, and view with deep emotion the plain elm coffin which held the remains of one of ■ the most marvelous men this World has ever known. From the very first moment of refining consciousness I had only 'Hie purpose in mind—to avenge Poirot’s death, and to hunt down t|e Big Four remorselessly. -I had thought that Ridgeway would have been of one mind with pre about this, but to my surprise the good doctor seemed unaccountably lukewarm. “Get back to South America,” was his advice, tendered on every occasion. Why attempt the imposJ>le? Put as delicately as possible, kjs opinion amounted to this:—lf Btnrot, the unique Poirot, had failed, was it likely that I should Succeed? 1 But I was obstinate. Putting abide any question as to whether I hted the necessary qualifications for the task (and I may say in passing that I did not entirely agree with hjs views on this point), I had forked so long with Poirot that I few his heart, and felt Ally capable of taking up the work Where he had laid it down; it was, th me, a question of feeling. My friend had been foully murdered. Was I to go tamely back to South America without an effort to bring ms murderers to justice? JI said all this and more to Ridgeway, who listened attentively Aough. a “AU-the same,” he said when I Ited finished, “my advice does not T»ry. I am earnestly convinced that Soirot himself, if he were here, Mtruld urge you to return. In his name, I beg of you, Hastings, abandon these wild ideas and go back to yiour ranch.” ..To that only one answer was Possible, and, shaking his head sad--IJ, he said no more. J It was a month before I was fully ib:-tored to health. Towards the end rif April, I sought, and obtained, an interview with the Home Secretary. * Mr. Crowther’s manner was reminiscent of that of Dr. Ridgeway. It was soothing and negative. Whilst appreciating the offer of my services, he gently and considerately tfeclinsd them. The papers referred tb by Poirot had passed into his lieping, and he assured me that all possible steps were being taken to rfeai with the approaching menace. I With that cold comfort I was forced to be satisfied. Mr. Crowther qgded the interview by urging me to return to South America. I found the whole thing profoundly unsatisfactory. H should, I suppose, in its proper jfiac«-, have described Poirot’s funeral- It was a solemn and moving

ceremony, and the extraordinary number of floral tributes passed belief. They came from high and low alike, and bore striking testimony to the place my friend had made for himself in the country of his adoption. For myself, I was frankly overcome by emotion as I stood by the grave side and thought of all our varied experiences and the happy days we had passed together. By the beginning of May I had mapped out a plan of campaign. I felt that I could not do better than keep Poirot’s scheme of advertising for any information respecting Claud Darrell. I had an advertisement to this effect inserted in a number of morning newspapers, and I was sitting in a small restaurant in Soho, and judging of the effect of the advertisement, when a small paragraph in another part of the paper gave me a nasty shock. Very briefly, it reported the mysterious disappearance of Mr. John Ingles from the S.S. Shanghai, shortly after the latter had left Marseilles. Although the weather was perfectly smooth, it was feared that the unfortunate gentleman must have fallen overboard. The paragraph ended with a brief reference to Mr. Ingle’s long and distinguished service in Chine The news was unpleasant. I read into Ingle’s death a sinister motive. Not for one moment did I believe the theory of an accident. Ingles had been murdered, and his death was only too clearly the handiwork of that accursed Big Four. As I sat there, stunned by the blow, and turning the whole matter over in my mind, I was startled by the remarkable behavior of the nian sitting opposite me. So far I had not paid much attention to him. He was a thin, dark man of middle age, sallow of complexion, with a small pointed beard. He had sat down opposite me so quietly that I had hardly noticed his arrival. But his actions now were decidedly peculiar, to say the least of them. Leaning forward, he deliberately helped me to salt, putting it in four little heaps round the edge of my plate. “You will excuse me,” he said, in a melancholy voice. "To help a stranger to salt is to help them to sorrow, they say. That may be an unavoidable necessity. I hope not, though. I hope that you will be reasonable.” Then, with a certain significance, he repeated his operations with the salt on his own plate. The symbol 4 was too plain to be missed. I looked at him searchingly. In no way that I could see did he resemble young Templeton, or James the footman, or any other of the various personalities we had come across. Nevertheless, I was convinced that I had to do with no less than the redoubtable Number Four himself. In his voice there was certainly a \ faint resemblance to the buttoned- ' up-stranger who had called upon us in Paris. I looked round, undecided as to my course of action. Reading my i thoughts he smiled and gently shook i his head. I “I should not advise it,” he re- > marked. “Remember what came of . your hasty action in Paris Let me > assure you that my way of retreat ■ is well assured. Your ideas are in- > dined to be a little crude. Captain I Hastings, if I may say so.” “You devil," I said, choking with rage, “you incarnate devil!” “Heated—just a trifle heated. Your late lamented friend would ; have told you that a man who keeps

' calm has always a great adv an- • Cage.” “You dare to speak of hhn»” I ' cried. “The man you murdered so ■ foully. And you come here— '* He interrupted me. ' "I came here for an excellent and ' peaceful purpose. To advise you to I return at once to South America. ! If you do so, that is the end of the . matter as far as the Big Four are I concerned. You and yours will not [ be molested in any way. I give you i my word as to that.” , I laughed scornfully. ! “And if I refuse to obey your au- ’ tocratic command?” “It is hardly a command. Shall [we say that it is—a warning?" i There was a cold menace in his ; tone. i “The first warning,” he said soft- , ly. "You will be well advised not to disregard it.” Then, before I had any hint of his intention, he rose and slipped quick--1 ly away towards the door. I sprang ! to my feet and was after him in a ; second, but by bad luck I cannoned ’ straight into an enormously fat man who blocked the way between me ' and the next table. By the time I ' had disentangled myself, my quarry was just passing through the doorway, and the next delay was from a waiter carrying a huge pile of 1 plates who crashed into me without - the least warning. By the time I > got to the door there was no sign > of the thin man with the dark beard. 1 The waiter was fulsome in apolo- ' gies, the fat man was sitting placidly at a table ordering his lunch. • There was nothing to show that both ■ occurrences had not been a pure ac- ‘ cident Nevertheless, I had my own ‘ opinion as to that. I knew' well • enough that the agents of the Big • Four were everywhere. » Needless to say, I paid no heed 1 to the warning given me. I would j do or die in the good cause. I re- ' ceived in all only two answers to the advertisements. Neither of them ■ gave me any information of value. ■ They were both from actors who had played with Claud Darrell at one time or another. Neither of them ’ knew him at all intimately, and no new light was thrown upon the i problem of his identity and present i whereabouts. 1 No further sign came from the 1 Big Four until about ten days later. • I was crossing Hyde Park, lost in ! thought, when a voice, rich with a persuasive foreign inflection, hailed , me. j “Captain Hastings, is it not?” A big limousine had just drawn 1 up by the pavement. A woman was ’ leaning out Exquisitely dressed in 5 black, with wonderful pearls, I rec- • ognised the lady first known to us as • Countess Vera Rossakoff, and after- • wards under a different alias as an agent of the Big Four. Poirot, for ; some reason or other, had always • had a sneaking fondness for the ‘ countess. Something in her very ’ flamboyance attracted the little man. 9 She was, he was wont to declare in moments of enthusiasm, a woman in J a thousand. That she was arrayed l against us, on the side of our bitterc est enemies, never seemed to weigh in his judgment. “Ah, do not pass . on!” said the countess. "I have f something most important to say to e you. And do not try to have me art rested either, for that would . pid. You were always a little stupid j —yes, yes, it is so. You are stupid now, when you persist in disregard. i ing the warning we sent you. It is the second warning I bring you. (To Be Continued) 1 Copyright, 1930. by Agatha Chflytla.
