  As the car halted; Nayre poked his revolver from the window; but The Shadow reached and drew it back。
  〃Our work is acplished;〃 spoke The Shadow。 〃We cannot attack the airport guards。 They have made a mistake; that is all。〃
  〃But unless we get through;〃 returned Nayre; 〃Murk and the other killers will escape!〃
  〃Let them;〃 decided The Shadow。 〃Perhaps they deserve the opportunity。〃
  Lights tilted as the ship's nose lifted from the field。 Another instant; and the plane was gone。 Gone with a blast that scattered chunks of metal hundreds of feet about!
  A bomb; more powerful than a whole row of Nayre's marimba gourds; had blasted the plane and its occupants: Murk Wessel and all his tribe; save one。
  That one was the wounded man back at the palace。 The Shadow had specially dropped him; knowing that someone would be needed to testify; first…hand; regarding Murk's alliance with Castenago。
  The Shadow's laugh denoted no surprise。
  〃I suspected something of the sort;〃 he told his panions。 〃Castenago was too generous; offering Allard his chance to leave the country。 It was better that Wessel should have tried the plane; to see if another of Castenago's accidents would happen。〃
  
  
  BACK at John Smith's shop; they separated。 Margo went to the hotel; where Nayre met her later; no longer in his native disguise。 He was wearing evening clothes。 He had called the palace and found that both he and Margo were expected there。 So they called a cab。
  An exciting scene greeted them when they entered the banquet hall。 Behind the main table stood Kent Allard; proposing a toast to Francisco Peridor; president of Centralba。
  The council had just held a meeting; and found a law which stated that the office reverted to its former incumbent; since Centralba had no vice…president。
  Luis Castenago had never deemed it expedient to provide a successor for himself。
  The toast finished; Margo was telling Allard about the plane disaster。 His responding nod indicated that The Shadow had warned him not to accept Castenago's invitation to depart。 It was then that Margo noticed Francisco Peridor and saw the smile that adorned the kindly professor's face。
  〃He should be happy;〃 said Margo。 〃He's president again; and they've found the millions that Castenago stole from the treasury。〃
  〃I think that Peridor is even happier over something else。〃
  At Allard's words; Margo agreed。 She saw the direction of Peridor's gaze; toward the two persons who were happiest of all: Mariquita and Colin Nayre。
  They had hoped long for this reunion。 They had obtained it…thanks to The Shadow!
