Elaine noticed some spots on her

not wait for an answer. but hastily
opened the hall door.
To Elaine it seemed that something
must be done quickly. A moment and
all the house would be In uproar.
Instead. he placed his finger on his
lips. "Quick-no word" he said, lead
ing the way to the hall door. "and-oh,
you must not leave that-it will be
a clue" he added, picking up the
bloody handkerchief and pressing it
into Elaine's hand.
They quickly ran out into the hall.
"Go-quick!" he urged again, land

no one see it,"
He shut the door. AS they hurried
away Elaine breathed a sigh of relief.
They had reached the street. Afraid
to run, they hurried as fast as they
could until they turned the first cor

Their beady almond eyes flashed

With a low bow, Wong spread out
his hands in surrender and submission.
