" You spend all hollidays with him ?" " Yes, every year." "How touching !" "A last match before landing ?" "Our shy friend  isn´t afraid of my niece" "If youd had seen her three weeks ago, when we met her in Monte Carlo  anything would make her blush." "Maybe we overdid it a little." "Your friends seem very nice." "Yes, after just three weeks we´re already good old friends." "Hello Mr. Le Guérantec, how about a rematch ?" "No, no, I´m too clumsy." "He´ll be in good shape when he returns home." "He will not return !" "Mr. Le Guérantec wants to travel." "Excellent idea !" "He was bored in Monte Carlo, I recommended him Morocco."

"You finish the match ?" "How touching !" "This is Moulay Idriss, the sacred city of Morocco." "I alread told you, Le Guérantec, infidels are not allowed to stay here."

"What Is this guy, a sacred person ?" "No, he´s a sorcerer from Fes." "What does he say ?" "Before the face of the moon will be round..." "Before the face of the moon will be round  you all will die !" "you first you second you third you fourth and you at last." "But I will be the last one ?" "Hey Strawber, come here !" "What happened ?" "How funny, he climbed up here and then..." "He is lost !" "We are 6 meters above sea level, there´s an abyss right below us." "What are you telling ?" "Before the face of the moon becomes round..." "Nothing." "We found nothing." "His body must have been flushed away." "It doesnt bother you to hear others work ?" "If you knew how I used to work..." "I made a painfull career when aged 24 to 25." "Don´t think it´s restfull becoming suddenly millionaire." "I admit it made me a little stupid." "Just a little ?" "Strawber !" "Very well, Strawber !" "What you think about my human harvesting machine ?" "my reaper, mower, baler..." "The sound of your machine is very romantic." "This was a shot !" "Yes, its a lurker again." "Are there lurkers around here ?" "Normally not  but recently my uncle had to hire watchmen." "I don´t know if they´re after the crop or the cattle, but Yesteray we caught one naked, rubbed with oil !" "Probably oil from your production, Marouvelle" "What about a cocktail ?" "No, never alcohol, an evian for me." "Then take this straw for your evian." "A few teardrops of brandy" "A sob of english water" "A cloud of Eau de Cologne for the perfume" "And some Snake oil which makes girls run after boys like dogs in heat."

"They steal my marmalade... last week they stole trousers hung up for drying" "One of my trousers, what use is it to them ?" "If you let them do, they will steal our underwear !" "You didn´t tell me one of your friends was a pilot." "Yes, Woodland, he´s in Berlin." "Uncle !" "What is it ?" "Captain Woodland from Royal Air Force got killed in Berlin while performing flight acrobatics." "So now, it´s Lawson´s turn." "You still believe in the sorceres curse ?" "I don´t believe, I see it´s true." "You will all die" "You first" "The first one was Midlock and Midlock drawned." "The second one  it was Woodland." "You´re not serious !" "don´t believe these womans gossip !" "I know these sorcerers and storytellers merchants of grinded goat liver milk from first-time birth-giving dogs" "I´ve heard enough such stories." "You´re joking ?" "Then explain..." "Uncle !" "For me ?" "For Mr. Jacques Guérantec confidential." "Excuse me." "It´s a joke." "Funny, I thought you know nobody in this country." "Precisely !" "That´s why you get your mail poste restante ?" " Yes." " Strange." "Who´s the dealer ?" "Our turn, no your turn." "You will all die" "You will be last" "What did I do to you ?" "Is it because of yesterday´s letter ?" "You´re free, believe what you want." "If I were you, I´d be wary of the native women." "Your life is in great danger." "I could save you." "Be at the ruins of Volubilis tomorrow 10pm." "Tell no one." "Will you go ?" "Of course !" "This is absurd, it must be an ambush !" "I dont´t care, I have to know." "I beliveve more and more, I´ll go." "It´s childish, your friends died as predicted." "It´s a coincidence, you know that." "No, it´s more than a coincidence." "I go with you." "No, I won´t put you in danger." "and tell no one, as it was written." "Of course not." "Your life is in great danger." "I could save you." "Be at the ruins of Volubilis tomorrow 10pm." "Tell no one." "I understand." "this letter you wrote it." "You arragend this moonlight walk ?" "I started to believe in the sorcerer." "I really started to believe the sorcerer." "How nice to have sent me this letter." "I swear I didn´t write it." "But thanks the one who did." "Francoise !" "Jacques !" "Lawson !" "It´s Lawson" "He wanted to go to Italy." "I will give notice to the Sarga Florio." "It´s a Berber´s dagger." "How touching !" "Why didn´t you tell me about this letter ?" "Together we could have avoided this." "He must have known..." "He must have known the secret of this strange fatality." "Theft was the motiv of this crime  the body got robbed." "How strange." "... of those, take three little glasses a day." "Now... to make perish... the sorcerer puts a frog into the couscousiere after it drank blood of a raven some verdigris and ashes of wolf fur." "The amphibian spits some kind of saliva which is collected on a piece of paper." "Then he makes it drink to the person you want to harm." "Did you recently drink some Amphibian´s saliva ?" "You´re ridicoulous, uncle !" "I just wanted to cheer you up." "Bullshit, we´re in 1931 !" "Midlock drawned," "Woodland crashed by plane, and Lawson got murdered." "All three in the predicted order." "There remains just you and me." "Me first, dear Le Guérantec, ... then you." "And quite soon, because in four nights, the moon we be full." "Why didn´t Lawson leave with the Sarga Florio, but stayed secretly." "To get killed ?" "Listen, we will fix all that." "We´ll look for the local sorcerer, he´ll give you snake-skin tea and scorpion poultices, and cheap, just three francs, maybe three and a quater, three may be too cheap, but then  you think of the moon no more, you think nothing at all and that´s it !" "I´m not impressed either, Marouvelle." "We die when have to, today or tomorrow is the same." "But I´d like to find this sorcerer again." "I´d like to know... with what dressing I´m going to be eaten." "Stop joking !" "Our three friends are dead, we have to..." "We are cursed, subjected to a power that we can´t fight nor discuss away." "We have to do something." "We have to find this beggar." "We have stop his curse." "I´m not crazy, but I can´t stand your mockery, nor Strawber´s." "I´ve had enough, I´m exasperated !" "Ah, Mademoiselle Francoise..." "Enough !" "When will you stop teasing this poor Demoiselle ?" "Leave me alone !" "What a crazy house !" "How is Strawber this morning ?" "I think he´s alright." "He´s fourth." "You´re safe as long as he lives." "So, Strawber..." "Did you sleep well ?" "You have won a walk in the sun." "Come with us and find this merchant of sudden death !" "Hurry up !" "Definitly not, I must write something." "... then just go and write !" "Is Strawber alright ?" "He´s on the terrace with your uncle." "Sorry for not asking how you are, but I had a frightening dream involving Strawber." "you too ?" "Francoise !" "Jacques !" "Take care of Strawber !" "Go dress yourself." "dress myself ?" "for what ?" "I don´t want to go out this evening." "Still haven´t found the sorcerer ?" "Did you look under the table ?" "So what ?" "Nothing." "We searched the whole city, the north and the border." "We went from Bab-Khisa to Bab-Tout, from Bab-Khaken to Boujloud" "He´s unfindable." "We even went into Madrasas." "Nothing." "How touching" "Give this to me !" "Pardon me my friend, the fatality..." "Fatality struck me as predicted." "I have to die." "Forgive me." "Strawber." "But why ?" "It´s inevitable, Le Guérantec." "Midlock, Woodland, Lawson, myself, and..." "No, we have to face the danger, to await it with courage." "With courage ?" "I´m a coward, so what ?" "Yes I´m scared." "That´s not the point, Le Guérantec." "I want to die  but not because of the course." "There´s something else, but I can´t tell you." "Strawber, you know I´m your friend" "I´ll do anything for you." "Three days ago, when you arrived" "I met some french people" "I played and I lost" "I sent a telegramm to my father in London but he refused" "I´m here to help you !" "No, you couldn´t  it really is a fortune." "We where three men millions on the table." "How much ?" "1,3 million francs." "I sent a telegramm to Paris, tomororrow we´ll get the money." "Thank you, this is too kind of you !" "No, you´d have done the same for me." "Tomorrow morning I´ll go to a market someone told me to look at." "We´ll do it together," "I dont know why, but I´m certain we ´ll find our guy tomorrow." "We´ll capture him and the he will see..." "I can´t await it !" "Sacred sorcerer !" "He came to blackmail me, but curses just don´t affect me." "Pay the carrier of this message 1,3 millions" "Perfect !" "We´ll be three to gothree ?" "We are four." "He´s right, Lawson is dead." "Maybe you should tell us who killed him ?" "Lawson... this bastard... he made Le Guerantec read the faked letter" "but I was there too, I recognized his handwriting" "In fact I went to Volubilis when the crime happend but I had nothing to do the job had already been done" "some lurker went by robbed the bastard´s money" "I don´t care, what matters is we are three !" "so I demand a third !" "I almost drawned jumping from the cafe´s terrace !" "I risked my life !" "It´s worth nothing, your share stays the same" "This not what was agreed." "Woddland, you better shut up." "What did you do ?" "A nice little trip to your princess in Berlin ?" "And send a telegramm to the press, to announce your death." "Really clever." "Pardon !" "The woman´s help, the sorcerer´s daughter..." "Enough talking..." "Lawson´s share is mine" "I plotted this business bunch of boneheads" "Did you ever make someone spit out a million, into your hands ?" "smiling" "Easy ?" "Moron !" "What did you do ?" "Nothing !" "Only Lawson did something, he conceived the comedy about sorcery." "But you ?" "Nothing." "Comparses." "Children." "Get your salary." "Idiot, leave us alone, we´ll find an agreement." "Where´s the check ?" "This woman took it !" "The dead are alright I see." "You drowned ?" "You look ridiculous now !" "Aviator !" "Yes, Le Guérantec..." "Enough of your accent !" "Shut up, move over there !" "You´ve got imagination, my compliments !" "Pleased to meet a connoisseur." "And what partners you have !" "Where are they ?" "They foud a way out" "It doesn´t matter" "You did the work, you´ll get a larger share." "I´ll give it to you !"
