So Lawrence Teck returned to civilization. The commandant of the district, a melancholy, flaccid man with a saffron-colored visage that looked like a half-deflated balloon, a martyr to prickly heat, anaemia, and monotony, peered up from under the moving punkah, to inquire of his subordinate in the doorway: "He is still sitting there alone?"

Lawrence Teck put on his hat, gave Cornelius Rysbroek a blind stare, climbed into a hired car.
