"At four o'clock the next morning the Rangoon, having arrived half a day earlier than usual, stopped at Singapore to take on more coal. Phileas Fogg marked this gain in his notebook and went on shore with Aouda, who wished to go for a short walk. Fix, distrusting every action of Fogg's, followed him secretly. Passepartout was amused to see him doing this, and went on shore to buy some fresh food."
