CHAPTER XXVI /.* that moment Ned Holden was at his old game of hole-and-corner. Why, he asked himself as he lurked in the shadows in sight of Chambon’s door, should any firstwater American girl look twice at a Peeping Tom like him? Instead of paying court to Virginia in the lounge, a white man and a civilized human being who could decently seek her favor, here he stood in his paint and trappings, watching for Chambon’s next move. Instead of the golden bells of her laugh, he must listen for the creak of his enemy’s bed-springs. Instead of the luster in her eyes, he must watch the dim gleam of a lighted key-hole in the gloom of the passage. B,ut he forgot his bitter breedings when that little gleam winked out, and he heard the rattle of Chambon’s door-knob. The door opened stealthily, the black of the room within showing in a slowly widening bar on the outer gray, and Chambon himself emerged. And there was something furtive yet eager, rapt yet wildly alive, in the way he glanced up and down the passage, then tiptoed away. Ned saw his face plain as he passed under the lantern. It was like that of a sleep-walker in an exquisite dream Stealing after i him, Ned saw him enter the court-' yard and pass under the light at i the end of the alley. And then, Ned spoke in an undertone to the! night. "Koh-Ken?” “Here I am, lord.” “Follow him and try to see wheie he goes. But don’t show yourself, or press him close. Let him get. away sooner than take any risks. Knives are out tonight.” He did not hear Koh-Ken’s naked feet. In the dust, but he knew they were swift. A. moment later he turned back to keep his appointment i with Griffin. *And now, for s littls e whi'.e, he] could forget his mask and rig-out. Griffin’s handclasp and Virginia’s Binile instantly swept away his long years of exile, and he was with his own people. A chair, a cigar, »n<i i a drink of the o'd man’s preewus; Missouri whiskey meant inure than : the gifts of kings. “I called you here for a pow-wow,”l Griffin said. "We’re all in this thiiig ; now, deeper than we like, and we’ve! got w find the way out. For my; own reputation if nothing else, Vir-| ginla and I will join hands with you l in getting that cussed Buddha back ' to Bangkok.” Ned looked him in the face. "How ’ fer will you go?” ■‘All tne way.” “ft may mean prison for Cham ! bon/’ "Ke’s a n an, Holden, and a strong; man. too. He took that risk when | he started. I'll do what I can for him.” Prison! With a stifled heart, Virginia drew back in her chair. "It’s your turn, daughter,” Griffin said, after a long silence. “I don’t think Andri will ever go to prison. He’d take some other way , . . But I’ll save him if I can.” Ned looked gravely into her eyes.; “I’ll take any help you can give me —cn your own terms.” “Then where do we begin?” Griffin asked. “At the beginning Except that we’ve got the diamond, we’re not much better off than when we left Vinh.” "Do you suppose the jewel is safe with St Pierre? Hadn’t he better rush it back to Bangkok?” “Hfs house is guarded, and no one but ourselves knows he has it. At

best, it would be mighty cold comfort to the king. I’d rather he wouldn't know about it until we’ve got the Buddha, too.” “But Holden—what under the sun became of '.he Buddha?’ "Os course it vanished last night, before the soldiers came. Perhaps old Koh-ken dozed a little—he’s an old man—possibly it went out through the window.” “Do you suppose it could still be in the room, under the floor, or in a hole in the wall?" “I had Koh-Ken crawl under the building and see. There’s no space to hide the idol. The walls looked solid to me.” “Could it have been dismembered, and carried off piece by piece?” “Ng Buddhist in the world would commit such a sacrilege as to cut e v en an inch from its base.” "But Chambon is not a Buddhist—” “A very devout one, I think. I suspect that his grandfather on his) mother’s side, the noble Corsican for whom the Valinco River was named, became converted to Buddhism on a visit to Indo-China sixty years ago, and passed the religion down through his family. There are many Buddhists in France.” “I’ve never considered that possibility,” Griffin murmured. “I have.” Virginia spoke clearly. [ “Dad. you’ve noticed that little jade 1 Buddha he always keeps in his room. I caught him salaaming to it once. He laughed it off, but I was worried by the look of hi# eyes. I suppose the time has corns to tell it.” Both men nodded. "Holden, why did Chambon—granting he was the one who spirited the Buddha away—take the trouble to fill the wooden image with stones?” Griffin asked. “To make it weigh the same, and ward off suspicion that it had been used as a hiding place ” The two men smoked in silence; Virginia watched Ned’s face. “What are you going to do about it, Holden’” Griffin asked quietly at last. “Mix with the natives and try to find out. what they know—because it’s plain they all know something. Discover what part the Cave of the Million Buddhas plays in the affair. Watch every move Chambon makes. Keep on with the hunt.” •‘l’m glad I’m not in your shoes — though mine are uncomfortable enough.” Viiginia seemed to leap forward I in her chair. “Ned, you must be careful! That stone idol isn’t worth the risk of your life. Os course there's nothing to fear from Andre —” But her eyes grew wide and round as she spoke. "Not a thing, of course,” Ned I agreed quickly. “But the men working with him' —the natives—if they suspect you I “I know. What’s a dead Laotian; more or less? But you see, Virginia, I it's not just a stene idol, but the palladium of a kingdom. I’m pledged to bring it back.” • • • It was nearing midnight, so Ned went to the courtyard to look for Koh-Ken. But the old Siamese was not in his favorite shadow, and there was no answer from the darkness to Ned’s whispered call. Why hadn’t the old man returned? Even the thought of trouble falling on that beloved gray head made him tremble. He called again, louder than was safe, but the echo came whispering back unanswered. He should not have sent him on the perilous mission. It was all right to risk his own painted skin, but not Koh-Ken, the one human

being whose love and faith he couic count on to the end. He should have left him safe in his kitchen in Bang kok, some one to come back to whei the war was over. The fever of excitement died out in his veins and left him sick and faint, but he could not yet go to his bed ... If the old man did not come soon, he must seek him through the black alleys and in forsaken courtyards. But just then the Unseen moved again. The spirit of unfathomable mystery that brooded over the whole affair of the Emerald Buddha spoke out of the night. It was a human voice, little more than a deep-throated murmur. Ned knew at its first guttural note that he had heard it once, perhaps twice before. And although he could not place it, the thrill of some great adventure, passed and half-forgotten, made his heart bound. "T’Fan?” the murmur came. Ned’s hand went tu his pistol. “Yes, I am T’Fan.* “You are seeking the old Siamese, Koh-Ken?” The voice spokt in debased Laotian. “Yes. Have you seen him? He is cook of our outfit, and I would give him orders for tomorrow.’ The last was a plausible lie—to hide his fear—but it stuck in Ned’s throat. It was like trying to deceive a ghost at a man’s bedside. He himself knew less than nothing of the affair of the Emerald Buddha, but a creepy intuition told him that this presence in the darkness might well know everything. "You are that T’Fan who defended Koh-Ken when my Lord the Leopard, whom you call Pu-Bow struck him in the face?” the voice ran on monotonously. “The same,” Ned answered. Meanwhile he was straining into the dark, but all he could see was a dimness like a mist on his own eyeballs . “Yet you are that T’Fan who cheated the Khas in the garb of a Meuw trader and carried away their prisoner.” “The same.” “So I do not know whether you are a friend or an enemy. But KohKen. at least, is a friend, and I would turn even a foe’s hands to his help.” “Is he in trouble? Speak quickly.” “Tonight he trailed the steps of him you call Chambon. He followed him to the house in the palm garden with the white gate, by the lamp post three streets toward the setting sun.” “I know the place. A rich Laotian lives there. What happened?” “When Chambon turned in the house, Koh-Ken hid in the garden to watch and listen. He is hiding there still, but a servant came to guard each gate, and I could not bring word to him what I know. So I have brought it to you.” “What is it, man?” “Those within know he is hiding there. Listening by the wall—for I am of the Little People, only fit to listen, and watch, and carry word —I heard my Lord the Leopard tell the guard so. But the plan how to kill him and remove his body safely trom the premises I could not hear.” Sick terror gripped Ned by the throat, but he rallied all his reserve forces, and instantly he was free. “Come with me, and we’ll save him.” His voice, still held low, might have moved most men to the noblest of their powers. But the unseen presence answered without a change of tone. “Nay, I can only watch—and listen—and carry word.” (To be continued.) Copyright by Edison Marshall.
