'My friend, I forgot to tell you,' said Le Chittre. He
smiled. 'My story will be that we met again after our game at the
Casino. You agreed to have one more game. But this time you lost. You
were very unhappy and you left Royale to go to... well, nobody knows
where you went. But before you left, you gave me a note. It explains
everything. The note means I'll be able to cash the cheque.' He laughed.
'It's a good story, yes? Now, shall we continue?'
Nobody knows where you went.
'So that was the plan,' thought Bond. He was going to die. There was not enough time for Mathis or Leiter to rescue him.
Then there was Vesper. Soon they would start torturing her too. What would they do to her? He did not want to think about that.
Bond lifted his head. 'No,' he whispered.
Le Chiffre made a small, angry sound. He hit Bond's arms and legs with the stick. Then he pushed the cigarette into Bond's face again. This time it was a millimetre under Bond's right eye.
The pain was terrible. Bond's face felt like a ball of fire. He wanted to scream. His eyes filled with tears and he could not see clearly.
'One more chance,' Le Chiffre told him. 'Do you want to be blind, Mr Bond?'
He took the cigarette away again.
'Now,' he began. 'You - '
'Stop,' said a voice, quietly.
There was somebody else in the room.
Bond lifted his head slowly. Le Chiffre was staring at the doorway, behind Bond. He could see the terror in Le Chiffre's eyes.

There was somebody else in the room.
Bond lifted his head slowly. Le Chiffre was staring at the doorway, behind Bond. He could see the terror in Le Chiffre's eyes.
'SMERSH,' Le Chiffre whispered. 'No! No, I .. .'
'Your two men are dead,' said a voice behind Bond. 'You are a thief and a traitor'. I've been sent from Russia to kill you. You're lucky that I only have time to shoot you. I was told to kill you painfully.'
The voice stopped. The room was silent. Somewhere outside a bird began to sing. Bond stared at Le Chiffre's face. It was white with fear.
There was a soft sound - then no other noise at all. Suddenly, a small black hole appeared between Le Chiffre's eyes. A bullet hole. Le Chiffre's head fell to one side and his body hung over the chair.
A hand came from behind Bond. It pulled his head back. Bond looked up into two shining eyes behind a narrow black mask. Above the mask was a hat. Then the hand pushed his head down again.
'You are lucky,' said the voice. 'I have no orders to kill foreign spies. But you're a gambler. One day, perhaps, you will play against one of us. I must let them see that you're a spy.'
The man stood behind Bond's right shoulder. A moment later, he put his hand in front of Bond's face. The hand was holding a long, thin knife. He held it like a pen. He moved the knife above Bond's hand, which was tied to the chair.
He cut four lines into the back of Bond's hand. They looked like the Roman number III with a line underneath. It was the Russian letter sha. It was the first letter of the Russian word shpion - spy.
Blood begun to fall on to the floor. Bond had suffered the beatings with the stick and the burning cigarette on his face. But this pain was too much. Everything went black as he fell unconscious.

"найз минь би чамд хэлэхээ мартчиж" гэж Ле Чиффре хэлээд. " Казинод тоглолт дууссаны дараа бид дахин уулзсан. Чи надтай олон тоглолт хийхийг зөвшөөрсөн. Гэхдээ чи ялагдсан. Чи баяр баясалгүй Рояаолаас гарсан. хэнч чамайг хаашаа явсаныг мэдэхгүй. Гэхдээ чамайг гархаас өмнө би чамд тэмдэглэлийн дэвтэр өгсөн. Энэ бүх зүйлийг тайлбарлана. Энэ тэмдэглэл намайг чек-д хүргэнэ. " тэр инээлээ. "энэ гоё түүх байгаа биз тиймүү? Одоо цааш үргэлжлүүлэе"
Хэнч чамайг хаана байгааг мэдэхгүй.
"Тэгээд энэ төлөвлөгөө юу" гэж Бонд бодлоо. Тэр үхэлрүүгээ явжээ. Mатис Лейтер түүнийг аврах хангалттай цаг байхгүй байлаа. Веспер мөн баригдсан удахгүй түүний тамлаж эхлэх байх. Тэд түүн дээр юу хэрэглэх бол? Бонд энийг бодохыг хүсэхгүй байлаа. Тэр энэ бодлоо толгойноосоо хаялаа. "Үгүй" гэж тэр аяархан шивнэлээ.
Ле Чиффре багахан уурлах чимээ гаргалаа. Тэр Бондын гар хөлрүү нөгөө зүйлээрээ цохилоо. Тэгээд тэр тамхиараа Бондын нүүрлүү дахиад түллээ. Энэ нь Бондын баруун нүдтэй миллиметрийн ойрхон байлаа.
Энэ нь маш их өвдөж байлаа. Бондын царай галт бөмбөг шиг л болов. Тэр орилмоор байлаа. Түүний нүд нь нулимсаар дүүрч байсан ч тэр гаргаж чадахгүй байлаа.
"Дахиад боломж олгоё" гэж Ле Чиффре хэллээ. "Чи сохормоор байна ноён Бонд?"
Тэр дахин тамхи авлаа.
"Одоо" тэр эхэллээ "Чи"
"Зогс" гэж тэр аяархан хэллээ.
Өрөөнд хэн нэгэн байлаа.
Бонд удаанаар толгойгоо өргөлөө. Ле Чиффре Бонд урд удаанаар хаалга ширтэй байлаа. Тэр Ле Чиффрегийн нүдэнд дотор ямар нэгэн хүчирхийлэл харлаа.
Смеш гэж Ле Чиффре аяархан шивнэлээ. "Үгүй ээ үгүй би..."
"Чиний 2 хүн үхсэн" гэж Бондын өмнө дуу гарлаа. Хулгайч тэрслэгч 2 чинь. Би бол Оросоос чамайг алахаар ирсэн гэж хэлжээ. Чи азтай байна би чамайг буудахаар ирсэн. Би чамд хэлсэн чамайг ална гэж өвтгөж".
Гарч байсан дуу зогслоо. Өрөө чимээгүй боллоо.Гадаа хаана нэгтээ шувууны жиргээ чимээ сонсогдлоо. Бонд Ле Чиффрегийн царайруу харж байлаа.Түүний царай цагаарч айсан байлаа. Тэнд байсан чимээ алга болж зөөлөн дуу гарч байлаа. Гэнэт жижиг хар зүйл Ле Чиффрегийн нүдний хооронд үзэгдлээ. Сумны нүх байлаа. Ле Чиффрегийн бие нь сандал дээр үлдэн толгой нь түшлэг наллаа. Бонд өмнө нэг гар ирлээ. Тэр буцааж түүний толгойг татаж. Бонд хар масктай 2 нүд л харж байлаа. Маск дээх малгай байлаа. Тэгээд тэр буцаагаад түүний толгойг түлхлээ.
"Чи азтай юмаа" гэж тэр дугарлаа. Надад өөр гадаадын тагнуулыг алах тушаал байхгүй. Гэхдээ чи нэлээн данстай тоглогч байхаа. Магадгүй нэг өдөр бидний нэг нь чамтай тоглох байх. Би тэд нарыг харах ёстой чи бол тагнуулч. Тэр залуу Бондын баруун мөрний ард зогсож байв. Хэсэг хугацааны дараа түүний гар Бондын нүүрний өмнө гарлаа. Тэр гар нэлээн урт хутгатай байв. Тэр үзэг шиг л харагдаж байлаа. Бондын гаран дээгүүр тэр хутгай явж байлаа Бондын гарыг сандалтай хүлсэн байлаа. Бондын гарын ард 4 огтоллоо. Тэд яг ром тоогоор тэгээд тэрийг дарсан нэг зураас шиг харагдлаа. Энэ нь оросын тэмдэг байлаа. Энэ нь Орос шпион тагнуулын эхний үсэг байлаа. Цус шалан дээр унаж эхэллээ. Бонд нүүрэн дээрээ тамхи унтраалгаж модоор зодуулж зовж байлаа. Гэхдээ энэ өвдөлт маш их. Бүх зүйл мэдрэлгүй харанхуй байв.
