It puts in at Yokohama and Nagasaki, but it starts from Shanghai." ¡¡¡¡"You are sure of that?" ¡¡¡¡"Perfectly." ¡¡¡¡"And when does the boat leave Shanghai?" ¡¡¡¡"On the 11th, at seven in the evening. We have, therefore, four days before us, that is ninety-six hours; and in that time, if we had good luck and a south-west wind, and the sea was calm, we could make those eight hundred miles to Shanghai." ¡¡¡¡"And you could go--" ¡¡¡¡"In an hour; as soon as provisions could be got aboard and the sails put up." ¡¡¡¡"It is a bargain. Are you the master of the boat?" ¡¡¡¡"Yes; John Bunsby, master of the Tankadere."

In half an hour we shall go on board." ¡¡¡¡"But poor Passepartout?" urged Aouda, who was much disturbed by the servant's disappearance. ¡¡¡¡"I shall do all I can to find him," replied Phileas Fogg.
