I had come to an entirely erroneous conclusion which shows, my dear Watson, how dangerous it always is to reason from insufficient data.
The presence of the gypsies and the use of the word band.
That poor girl Julia obviously had glimpsed the snake as she struck a match.
Well, they were sufficient to put me on an entirely wrong scent.
I only corrected my mistake when I saw how impossible it was to enter the room either by the door or the window.
The bell broke.
The ventilator and the clamped bed then gave rise to the suspicion that the rope was there as a bridge for something passing through the hole and coming down to the bed.
The idea of a snake instantly occurred to me, for, as we knew already, the doctor had his own supply of strange pets from India.
And the whistle?
And the clang?
The whistle was the doctor's signal to recall the snake before the morning light could reveal it to the victims.
After all, once it had come down the bell-rope, it might or might not have bitten the victim.
But sooner or later, the doctor knew it was good.
I have come to these conclusions before I enter this room.

The saucer of milk, the loop of which called the iron safe, were enough to dispel any doubt that might have remained.
Oh.
The metallic crang, I suppose, was the doctor sucking the snake in the safe again.
