Sherlock Holmes and the Secret Weapon Page #4

with a handkerchief you

now hold in your hand

and that amount

of lipstick

never came from a

pair of thin lips.

And the blonde hair?

Good gracious me.

Mr. Holmes, I am glad

you are on my side.

Well in that case

you will desist

from disobeying my

orders and slipping out

while your bodyguard

sleeps his watch away.

It won't happen

again, Holmes.

I was sitting in

front of the fire

and must have dozed.

All right, All right.

Oh, sorry.

Now, can you describe

your assailant?

I never saw him.

A great figure came

at me in the dark.

I felt a stunning

blow on my head and,

and instantly fingers

were at my throat.

But you must have noticed

something about him.

Think man.

A thing of little

consequence to you

may mean a great

deal to me.

Wait.

Wait a moment.

There was one thing.

Long fingers at my

throat like, like steel.

And then,

then a,

an odor,

a heavy drug-like odor.

A drug?

Opium?

That is it.

I am sure of it now.

Well, I suggest

we get the remains

of a good night sleep.

Remember, the test takes

place tomorrow morning

on Salisbury Plain.

The principal of

Dr. Tobel's device

involves the use of

three sonic beams.

Is that right, sir?

That appears to be it.

There he is.

We're on the

course now, sir.

Well gentlemen,

that load would sink

any ship in the world.

We must consider

the possibility

of good piloting

and a lucky hit.

I'd like to see

another try of it.

So would I.

They want you to

try again, sir.

He's coming into

position now, sir.

We're on the

course now, sir.

Well gentlemen, how do you

like the bomb sight now?

It's marvelous.

We'll revolutionize

the aerial bombardment.

Inspector Lestrade.

Yes, Sir Reginald?

I hope Scotland Yard is

taking every precaution

to guard Dr. Tobel

and his equipment.

Two plain-clothes men

ride with him

in his car sir,

and four others follow

in another one, sir.

Good.

He's coming to my

office in Whitehall

as soon as he lands.

Well shall we

start, gentlemen?

Well, here he

is gentlemen.

Congratulations sir.

It was excellent

amazing performance.

It was magnificent,

Dr. Tobel.

Magnificent.

I am glad we had such

ideal conditions

for the test.

I wouldn't have

believed it

if I hadn't

seen it myself.

We've been through

a lot, Holmes

but thank goodness

he's safe now.

You brought your

apparatus with you?

No, Sir Reginald.

I did not.

But why not?

It must be lodged

in the most impregnable

vault in this building

until we're ready to

start manufacture.

I have arranged for a

little office of my own.

I intend to supervise

the manufacture myself.

But you,

you offered it to our

government for our use.

Everything

Mr. Holmes has done
