The exhibit wil! be returned CONTRABAND By DENNIS WHEATLEY SYNOPSIS Gregory Sallust, young English private investigator, is greatly in terested in the affairs of the beau tiful Hungarian girl, Sabine Szen tes, for two reasons: first, because her beauty and Charm are irresist ible ; second, because she is associ ated with Lord Gavin Fortescue, a sinister, shadowy figure in inter national affairs. Fortescue is a strange looking little man, curi ously misshapen. Sallust knows him by reputation and has begun to sus pect that he jnd Sabine are con cerned in certain illegal activities which Gregory is investigating for Sir Peltinore Gwaine-Cust, a Brit ish industrial giant. Gregory and Sabine have become friends, al though-she will tell him nothing of herself or her relations with For tescne. In saving Inspector Wells, a Scotland Yard detective, from a brawl in a cafe near Deauville, ' France, where Sabine had lured the victim, uregory gains possession ef a mvcteriaua coded tele-cram dropped during the hght. Sabine refuses to enlighten Gregory on the telegram, warninghim it is danger ous to know too much. She agrees to spend the following day with the infatuated Uregory. Dining at a roadside inn, Sabine is filled with apprehension for Gregory's safety when she sees "The Limper," one of Lord Gavin's henchmen, watch ing them. Later, when Gregory goes to get his car, be is attacked by a man who throws pepper in his eyes. Sabine disappears. Return , ing to England Gregory's suspi cions of Lord Gavin Fortescue are confirmed by Sir Pellinore and Gregory calls on Inspector Mar rowfat of Scotland Yard to try to stahlish a working acreemenf with Mh police but be gets no co-opera- tion as Marrowfat can see no con . nection between the matter Wells was sent to investigate and Sir Pel ,' linore's business. Gregory denies that he found the teleeram. The In spector tells' Wells to shadow Gregory, believing he will lead the police to something important. That same evening, with bis serv ant Rudd, Gregory Bier to the - French coast to search for a certain . V us i v'uiijo ociiuuncu in the mysterious telegram. On their way, to the cafe. Gregory explains his plan of action to Rudd. To allay . suspicion, they are to pretend their "motor broke down and they are just alii 1 u) iini ail uii ui wiuis wan ing for a mechanic - " - ' CHAPTER IX - v ' "la the meantime we've dined well, and that's the truth, heaven knows, but well rive them the im- .pression we've wined considerably better not tight, you' know, but Inat ahrmt half a one avr the orlrla. so what's more natural than we should knock off a few more drinks . at this place while we're waiting for old Brown? "If he fails to turn on in an hour or so we mav think it a bit strantre that the poor blighter's lost his way, but by that time we'll be fairly well . ginned up and not earing two hoots in Hades for anybody. Well start talking of making a night of it as we refresh ourselves with further po tions of the local poison. Round about midnight well agree that old Brown's lost himself and obviously returned to the hotel in Calais, where we spent last night. Then . well say, for the benefit of anyone who's listening, that well do the same ourselves and foot it back when we feel like bed. It's not likely theyll turn us out as long as we look like buying another drink, since there are none of those fool early closing laws in France. If they do, well know there's something fishy gtung on. Then, well have to con tinue our watch outside. Get the Idea?- "Yes, sir. Sounds like a first class pub crawl, without the crawl in it, ter me. I've often wished there weren't no early closing hours in England." While Gregory was speaking they had driven past the last houses of the town and were now out in the open country with the rolling down land all about them. A few minutes later a solitary building came into i view at the roadside on the brow of low hill. I "That'll be it, unless I'm much mistaken," said Gregory, "so I think it's about here well ditch the car." He slowed down and ran it off the road into a shallow gully, then climbed out, remarking; "I dont want to leave her on the road in case some fool breaks his neck by crashing into her. Well say we had to run into the bank to avoid a speed maniac and that the Jolt snapped somethings We don't know what, as we're not mechanics." Side by side they trudged np the slope to the solitary building. It proved to be no more than a couple of ancient flint-walled cottages knocked into one, but a creaking She was a dull creature and her aha. rat fn thff conversation ' Wax limited to polite meaningless ex pressions and a series of nods.' When the topic of their trip was exhausted Gregory asked permis sion to remove the bottle to a table in the far corner and, with Rudd, parked himself at it. . When he had seated himself in the corner with his back to the wall, so that he, could survey the whole of the lowl-raf tered room, he 'scruti nized each of the other visitors in turn, while keeping up a desultory conversation with Rudd. He care fully hid his satisfaction as he noticed that one of the three men who were talking at a table near the doorway was the dark, curly-haired lit i f sv lQwF fit in Gregory and Rudd cautiously approached the shuttered inn sign above the doorway established the fact that it was the Cafe de la Cloche. Before it, on the stony ground, stood an few rusty iron tables and battered chairs. The place was shuttered but lights came through the cracks of two windows, and from beneath the heavy door. No other sign of, life showed about the place and it was wrapped in a deep silence. . . ' j '. Gregory kicked open the door and walked in, with Rudd behind him. Inside a bar ran down one side of the room. Behind it on the shelves was a meager collection of bottles, many, of which looked as though they had stood there for genera tions. A dark, bloosy, sullen-eyed French girl sat behind the bar knit ting. A handful of men occupied three of the five cheap wooden tables covered with red and white checked cloths. One group was playing domi noes. The rest were talking in sub dued .voices. All of them had the appearance of French peasants or fishermen. The air was heavy with stale tobacco, smoke, the fumes of cheap spirits and the odor of on washed humanity. - 'Monsieur?' said the girl, stand ing up and abandoning her knitting. Gregory asked for whisky, but she had none, so he changed his order to cognac and she poured two portions from an unlabeled bottle into thick glasses. He had become suddenly garru lous and friendly. Leaning across the bar he told her about their "ac cident," and laughed somewhat hila riously at the thought of poor old Brown now trudging back to Calais. Then he went on to speak of their holiday, purposely refraining from using his best French and helping out his apparently scanty knowl edge of the language with frequent vivid gestures. j , The girl proved a poor audience.' young thug who had thrown a knife at him a few nights before in Trou ville. Mr. Co rot , of the telegram, Gregory decided to assume for, the ; moment.'- - '" i. Pulling his raincoat op round his ears and his hat down over his eyes, he shifted his chair a little so that Rudd should come between him and the Frenchman, in case the fellow happened to glance around. He had no desire at all to be recognized at the moment. " At a little before eleven the domi no party broke up and the players left the cafe. Only five others, in cluding the curly-headed knife thrower, now remained, and they were all seated together. Gregory and Rudd were half way through the liter bottle of brandy. It was cheap fiery stuff, but both of them possessed heads like rocks, and if they had ceased drinking Gregory knew they would soon find they had outstayed their welcome. It was a dreary business waiting there for something to happen, and Gregory was thankful when at about a quarter past eleven "Corot" stood cp, obviously summoned by a few musical notes upon a motor horn, twice repeated, from a spot not far distant on the road outside. As he left the inn the notes on the motor horn were sounded again with evident impatience which gave Gregory the opportunity to say casually to the girl behind the bar, I "I wonder if that's our friend, who's found our ditched car at last and is : wondering what's happened to us. As he wouldn't know we're here I think we'd better go and see." He pulled out a note and paid the bill in a leisurely way, treating the girl to some cheerful half -tipsy badinage before he left in order to avoid the appearance of deliberately following the other man.
