A man and a woman arrive in a cafe-hotel near the Belgian frontier. The customers recognize the man from the police's description. His name is Amedee Lange, he murdered Batala in Paris. His lady friend Valentine tells the whole story: Lange was an author of Wild West novels in Batala's printing works. When Batala absconded with the company funds, Lange rallied the employees together to create their own publishing house. Batala returned, disguised as a priest, and demanded a share of the profits. Lange responded by killing the bounder.
