We Copplestone and myself know very well that the skipper of the Pike, Andrius, is in it: that's undeniable. But there may be others or one other, or two on shore here. And as the Pike can communicate by wireless, those on board her may have sent a message to their shore confederates to remove those chests. So " "Capital suggestion!" said Sir Cresswell, who saw this point at once.
"You think there is somebody on the Pike somebody other than Andrius?" suggested Copplestone. "I believe the man who calls himself Marston Greyle was on the Pike," announced Audrey. "I've always thought so. Whether Chatfield knew that or not, I don't know. My own belief is that Chatfield did know. I believe Chatfield was in with them, as the saying is.
Outside that lay the North Sea, and Copplestone suddenly wondered which course the vessel was going to take, north, east, or south. But before he could put his thoughts into words, the door was suddenly unlocked, and Captain Andrius, suave, polite, deprecating, walked into the cabin. "A thousands pardons and two words of explanation!" he exclaimed, as he executed a deep bow to his lady prisoner.
She can be run into some safe harbourage on this coast, given a new coat of paint and a new name, and be off before we can do anything to stop her. I allow Chatfield to be right in this that my perhaps too hasty declaration to Andrius revealed to that gentleman how he could make off with other people's property."
