To-morrow we have much to accomplish." "I am all attention." "In the first place, Mrs. Capella is leaving London for the North. She must not be regarded in our operations. The woman is weighted with a secret. I am sorry for her. I prefer to allow events as supplied by others to unravel the skein. Secondly, Jiro and his wife, and all who visit them, or whom they visit, must be watched incessantly.
I saw David meet the same girl in a white dress near the lodge, so I sent the post-card which I made Jiro write for me. He wrote it badly, which was all the better for my purpose. I meant David to be hanged by the law; then I would marry Margaret. That is all. Give me some brandy. I am dreaming now. I can see curling shapes. Ah!"
Brett," he explained, "and this morning after Mr. Jiro went out alone " "Where did he go to?" "The British Museum." "What on earth was he doing there?" "Examining manuscripts, my assistant told me. He was particularly interested in let me see it is written on a bit of paper.
"He may not be very long " she commenced, but the youthful Jiro's voice was again heard in fretful complaint. "My baby is not well to-night," she explained. "Poor little darling!" said Brett. He was tempted to add: "What is its name?" but refrained. "Won't you sit down?" said Mrs. Jiro. "As I was saying, my husband may not be very long "
"On a charge of complicity after the act in relation to the murder of Sir Alan Hume-Frazer. Your accomplice, Ooma, is the murderer." "What!" shrieked Mrs. Jiro, flouncing on to her knees and breaking forth into piteous sobs. "Oh, my precious infant! Oh, my darling Nummie! Will they part us from our babe?" The door opened, and a frowsy head appeared.
John's Mansions in my favourite character as an old clo' man." The barrister expressed extravagant admiration in dumb show, but this did not deceive the detective, who, for some reason, was downcast. "I saw Mrs. Jiro, and knew in an instant that she was the stout gentleman who left her husband at Piccadilly Circus yesterday. I was that annoyed I could hardly do a deal. However, here they are."
"If a little Japanese can come to this town and carry off a lady of her size and appearance, what may not a six-foot Englishman hope to accomplish?" "Oh, go on!" He took her advice, and went on to the hotel patronised by Mr. Jiro during his visit to Ipswich. The landlord readily showed him the register for the Assize week.
Turning to Brett she explained: "He calls me a crow, and says it is a compliment, but I don't like it." "In Japan the clow speaks with the voice of love," grinned Jiro. "Well, it sounds funny in London, so just attend to this gentleman. He has come to see you on business." Mrs. Jiro forthwith seated herself to listen to the conclave.
"I have sold it again," interfered Jiro, after a hasty glance round the room, "and I am going to buy another." Mrs. Jiro rose to stir the fire unnecessarily. "They are most useful," said Brett. "Which make do you prefer?" "They are all vely much alike," answered the Japanese, "but I am going to buy a Yost or a Hammond."
Jiro dresses his wife in male attire and sends her on an errand he dare not perform himself. The fact that they depart together from their residence is diplomatic in itself. If they are followed, the watcher is sure to shadow Jiro and leave his unknown friend.
