Tiger Bronson stared in admiration at this ingenious Chinaman, who talked perfect English, and whose schemes left no room for chance.
“The way is clear now,” remarked Loo Look. “Let The Shadow enter if he wishes. He will step upon hidden floor plates. He will be trapped between steel sheets. He will never escape.”
“We should have tipped him off to the secret passage,” suggested Bronson.
“No,” replied Loo Look. “I do not want any one to know of its existence, other than ourselves. I spent too much in its preparation.
“Let The Shadow come as others do — through the passages where the guards await. They will attend to him.”
“Suppose he gets through them—”
Loo Look shook his head.
“They are ready for him,” he replied.
“He may come in disguise,” objected Tiger Bronson. “He is clever in that method.”
“The man in the inner room will know that the disguise is false. No one can deceive Woo Ting.”
