The Man Who Wouldn't Die Page #7

They had it all figured out

that you couldn't stand...

the notoriety ofr a murder

ifr it was to be made public...

and that you would try

to dispose of the body.

And they were right.

Then, without your knowledge...

they were to arrange for Zorah Bey's escape

and hold his murder over you.

But these two had already plotted

to double-cross Zorah Bey...

by really burying him alive,

four feet under the ground.

That's right, isn't it, Mrs. Wolfrf?

A very neat plot.

And it might have been successful...

if it hadn't been for

that curious caretaker of yours.

Once he was free, naturally,

Zorah Bey's motive became revenge.

He came back to the house to kill your wife,

but he got into the wrong room.

That's why he took a shot

at you, Kay.

He came back the second night

to kill Dr. Haggard.

He found out

that he hadn't killed Anna...

and that was why

he came back the third time.

Where is everybody?

I said where is everybody?

Well, you might at least

give me a civil answer.

What's the matter? You asleep?

Gosh.

Who put that body

out in the hall?

Chief, congratulations.

- What for?

- For solving the case. Say, you did a great job.

- There. There's your prisoner.

- What, her?

Can't you see your name

in all the headlines?

"Mysterious Murder

Solved by 'Monathan Jerk. "'

- "Jeek"! I mean Meek!

- Yeah.

- Here. You'll be wanting this.

- No.

That's all right. It's empty.

- Hey! Why don't you be careful?

- I thought you said it was empty.

Oh, yeah.

I did.

- You did.

- Well, I-

- So long, people. I'll- I'll be seeing ya.

- Where you goin'?

Back to school

to learn to count up to six.

- Mike.

- Yeah?

- You were wonderful the way you solved this case.

- Well, thanks.

But how on earth did you get all those facts

about Zorah Bey and Anna and Dr. Haggard?

Mrs. Blake...

a good detective never reveals

the source of his information.

- Oh.

- Mmm.

Oh, I've been wantin'

to do this for-

So long!

Whoa!
