Another
thing
,
he
scraped
up
enough
money
to
take
him
to
Egypt
,
his
uncle
refused
outright
to
advance
him
a
penny
,
yet
he
was
able
to
pay
the
return
passage
to
New
York
.
Some
one
must
have
lent
him
the
money
.
”
“
All
that
was
very
thin
,
”
I
objected
.
“
But
there
was
more
.
Hastings
,
there
occur
often
enough
words
spoken
metaphorically
which
are
taken
literally
.
The
opposite
can
happen
too
.
In
this
case
,
words
which
were
meant
literally
were
taken
metaphorically
.
Young
Bleibner
wrote
plainly
enough
:
‘
I
am
a
leper
,
’
but
nobody
realized
that
he
shot
himself
because
he
believed
that
he
had
contracted
the
dread
disease
of
leprosy
.

“
What
?
”
I
ejaculated
.
“
It
was
the
clever
invention
of
a
diabolical
mind
.
Young
Bleibner
was
suffering
from
some
minor
skin
trouble
,
he
had
lived
in
the
South
Sea
Islands
,
where
the
disease
is
common
enough
.
Ames
was
a
former
friend
of
his
,
and
a
well
-
known
medical
man
,
he
would
never
dream
of
doubting
his
word
.
When
I
arrived
here
,
my
suspicions
were
divided
between
Harper
and
Dr
.
Ames
,
but
I
soon
realized
that
only
the
doctor
could
have
perpetrated
and
concealed
the
crimes
,
and
I
learnt
from
Harper
that
he
was
previously
acquainted
with
young
Bleibner
.
Doubtless
the
latter
at
some
time
or
another
had
made
a
will
or
had
insured
his
life
in
favour
of
the
doctor
.
The
latter
saw
his
chance
of
acquiring
wealth
.
It
was
easy
for
him
to
inoculate
Mr
.
Bleibner
with
the
deadly
germs
.
Then
the
nephew
,
overcome
with
despair
at
the
dread
news
his
friend
had
conveyed
to
him
,
shot
himself
.
Mr
.
Bleibner
,
whatever
his
intentions
,
had
made
no
will
.
His
fortune
would
pass
to
his
nephew
and
from
him
to
the
doctor
.

“
And
Mr
.
Schneider

“
We
cannot
be
sure
.
He
knew
young
Bleibner
too
,
remember
,
and
may
have
suspected
something
,
or
,
again
,
the
doctor
may
have
thought
that
a
further
death
motiveless
and
purposeless
would
strengthen
the
coils
of
superstition
.
Furthermore
,
I
will
tell
you
an
interesting
psychological
fact
,
Hastings
.
A
murderer
has
always
a
strong
desire
to
repeat
his
successful
crime
,
the
performance
of
it
grows
upon
him
.
Hence
my
fears
for
young
Willard
.
The
figure
of
Anubis
you
saw
to
-
night
was
Hassan
,
dressed
up
by
my
orders
.
I
wanted
to
see
if
I
could
frighten
the
doctor
.
But
it
would
take
more
than
the
supernatural
to
frighten
him
.
I
could
see
that
he
was
not
entirely
taken
in
by
my
pretences
of
belief
in
the
occult
.
The
little
comedy
I
played
for
him
did
not
deceive
him
.
I
suspected
that
he
would
endeavour
to
make
me
the
next
victim
.
Ah
,
but
in
spite
of
la
mer
maudite
,
the
heat
abominable
,
and
the
annoyances
of
the
sand
,
the
little
grey
cells
still
functioned
!
”
Poirot
proved
to
be
perfectly
right
in
his
premises
.
Young
Bleibner
,
some
years
ago
,
in
a
fit
of
drunken
merriment
,
had
made
a
jocular
will
,
leaving
“
my
cigarette
case
you
admire
so
much
and
everything
else
of
which
I
die
possessed
which
will
be
principally
debts
to
my
good
friend
Robert
Ames
who
once
saved
my
life
from
drowning
