John then is chased by detectives through the flower market, but again avoids capture. Though a bit wary, Hughson agrees to supply John with a list of the thief's probable targets. There, John explains his situation to Hughson, an English insurance investigator from Lloyds of London, a company that has been hard hit by the recent thefts. At the hotel, John receives a phone call from Bertani, instructing him to meet the man, H. The flirtatious Danielle then drops John off at the Carlton Hotel beach, where unknown to him, he is observed by a beautiful woman. Foussard, one of Bertani's workers, helps John flee and delivers him to his teenage daughter Danielle, who takes John out in a motor boat. As John is leaving the restaurant, he is spotted by the still-pursuing police detectives. Instead, Bertani offers to put John in contact with a man who two days before asked for the same information. Feeling that his only recourse is to catch the thief himself, John asks Bertani for information about his rich customers. Although Bertani is sympathetic to John's plight, the other restaurant workers treat him hostily, fearing that his apparent transgression will cast suspicion on them. John then races to see his old friend, Bertani, a restaurateur with whom he fought in the French Resistance and whose employees are all ex-convicts like John. When police detectives come to question him at his hilltop villa near Cannes, John cleverly eludes them.
