The fact that the Lascar's body had been found
near the Joy Shop, scene of an encounter with Fu
Manchu. may Have been only a comcidcr.cc. but it
furnished a startling lead. 1 bt / n eagerly to question
officer.
• At lugh tide last flight,"’ the officer explained. I
“Hewson. returning with the ten o’clock boat, noticed
the moonlight glittering upon the knife. He investi- i
gated and found the incoming tide had jammed live ,
body right up under a crossbeam amongst the piles.' J
The knife to which the Inspector referred possess
ed a long, curved blade. The dead man still clutched
the hilt of the weapon But his hand had been twist
ed under htt body so that 1 had to turn him over to
see it.
The knife was of a kind with which I had been ter
ribly familiar in the past.
"You sec the mark, Petrie?" snapped Smith.
! nodded. The dead man upon the table was a Bur
mese dacoit, one of Fu Manchu's henchmen.
