Sarah began to cry again. ’Perhaps he does want to help me. I don’t know. But he’s different now, mother, you don’t understand. His eyes are different. They’re ... I don’t know. And he can’t sit quietly and talk to people now. His Body is moving all the time. He came to see me in our hotel the night before we came to this country, and ... I didn’t like him, mother! Why is he here? He doesn’t love me now, and I don’t love him!’

’Yes,’ Mr Cheng said. ’That’s very important. Can the police tell us?’
’Perhaps,’ the Inspector said. ’But it’s very difficult. It was not a long telephone call. And the man didn’t give his name. Perhaps he was a policeman, and he knew about the heroin.’
’Perhaps,’ Mr Cheng said. ’But then, perhaps he put the heroin there. And he wanted the police to find it. Perhaps someone doesn’t like your daughter, Mrs Harland?’

But then the judge came back into the courtroom, and everybody stopped talking.
The judge then called Hassan. Hassan stood up and went to the front of the courtroom. ’He’s a rich boy,’ Anna thought. ’That shirt and those shoes are very expensive.’
Hassan stood there, tall and very quiet. He waited for the questions. He did not look afraid. But when Mr Cheng looked at his papers and asked the first question, Hassan closed his eyes.

’Well, he does have very white teeth,’ Anna thought.
Again Hassan closed his eyes and waited for a second. Then he looked at the jury, and said very loudly: ’Sarah did not buy the toothpaste. I bought it. I bought all three tubes of toothpaste. It was my toothpaste.’

’I see,’ Mr Cheng said. ’And when did you first meet Sarah Harland?’
’Now, Hassan. You bought the toothpaste, but it was in Miss Harland’s bag. Why? Why did she carry it for you? Or do you always ask your women to carry things for you?’ He smiled.

’Of course it is. But I don’t sell heroin. It’s wrong to sell heroin.’
The lawyer moved his papers on the table. He looked at the jury. ’So you are a very good young man with very clean teeth but no money. You met a young English girl. She was unhappy with her boyfriend, so you helped her and took her away with you. Is that right? Oh dear! It’s not a very good story, you know. I don’t believe it, and I don’t think the jury believes it, young man.’
He stopped for a minute. Then he looked at Hassan, and said loudly: ’You don’t love Sarah Harland, and she doesn’t love you. You went with her because she could help you. And she went with you because she wanted the money. She carried the heroin for you to sell. That’s right, isn’t it? You put the heroin in the toothpaste tubes, and she knew about it. Is that the true story, young man? I think it is.’
