Fix started off in search of Passepartout.

Meanwhile Mr. Fogg, after leaving the consulate, repaired to the quay, gave some orders to Passepartout, went off to the Mongolia in a boat, and descended to his cabin. He took up his note-book, which contained the following memoranda:

"Total of hours spent, 158+; or, in days, six days and a half."

These dates were inscribed in an itinerary divided into columns, indicating the month, the day of the month, and the day for the stipulated and actual arrivals at each principal point Paris, Brindisi, Suez, Bombay, Calcutta, Singapore, Hong Kong, Yokohama, San Francisco, New York, and London-from the 2nd of October to the 21st of December; and giving a space for setting down the gain made or the loss suffered on arrival at each locality.

This methodical record thus contained an account of everything needed, and Mr. Fogg always knew whether he was behind-hand or in advance of his time.
Voice Reading
On this Friday, October 9th, he noted his arrival at Suez, and observed that he had as yet neither gained nor lost.
Voice Reading
He sat down quietly to breakfast in his cabin, never once thinking of inspecting the town, being one of those Englishmen who are wont to see foreign countries through the eyes of their domestics.

IN WHICH PASSEPARTOUT TALKS RATHER MORE, PERHAPS, THAN IS PRUDENT
Voice Reading
Fix soon rejoined Passepartout, who was lounging and looking about on the quay, as if he did not feel that he, at least, was obliged not to see anything.
Voice Reading
"Well, my friend," said the detective, coming up with him, "is your passport visaed?"
Voice Reading
"Ah, it's you, is it, monsieur?" responded Passepartout. "Thanks, yes, the passport is all right."
Voice Reading
"And you are looking about you?"
Voice Reading
"Yes; but we travel so fast that I seem to be journeying in a dream. So this is Suez?"
Voice Reading
"Certainly, in Egypt."
