Question

Describe the meeting between Ausable and Max (for 5 mark)

Answer 1

Fowler was an upcoming writer who was initially very excited at the thought of meeting a secret agent in person . But ,ausable the detective agent in the story did not fit into stereotypical notion of detective. He was neither handsome nor well dressed in the ways of an agent . There was nothing mysterious about him . Infact,he was fat and short . Ausable could very well guess Fowler's disappointment . so he let some dramatic effect to enter to their conversation and told Max that there was an important piece of paper in his room which would soon affect the source of history and told that many people had risked their life for it .
when they entered the room, they found another detective in the room. looking at him ausable showed dissapointed look. he told his listener that Max must have entered in through the balcony outside the window . He described it so dramatically that when someone knocked on the door Max jumped out of the window hoping to find a balcony .
As there was no balcony Max met his end . Thus,Fowler learned a lesson that what it makes a good detective is presence of mind and sharp intelligence and not merely handsome and mischievous looks.
