for the French Antarctic base. On the street, a cyclist passes a message to Blake, which forces him to admit to his friend the real purpose of his visit: a conspiracy against the West by several poor countries linked to a traffic of uranium to the World Expo. The message advises to look on the side of the Congolese pavilion, the two friends decided to take a look. In Antarctica, Acoka is about to send the spirit of Olrik to sabotage Expo thanks to his sarcophagi and the radio link between the British pavilion and the base. Shortly after, in Brussels, all electrical equipment around Blake and Mortimer flashes and stirs, leading to damage in the Congolese pavilion. Blake and Mortimer then meet their old friend and servant Ahmed Nasir, now the Indian intelligence officer. Together, they conclude that there is a spy in the British pavilion team. Nasir joins the team to find out the traitor, while Blake and Mortimer go to the Soviet and American pavilions, where the strange phenomena recurs until the appearance of the face of Olrik on a screen. The two friends understand that the link between the pavilion and the British base is related to the phenomena and Nasir reveals Badju Singh, the assistant of Mortimer, is the traitor. The same evening, the three friends question him and discover that he exchanges a parcel of uranium with Bert Van den Brand, the foreman of the Congolese pavilion. Arrested thanks to the intervention of the Congolese, Van den Brand tells them that Singh has to go to the Indian Antarctic base on the freighter Ravi Kuta. Blake, Mortimer and Nasir decided to join Professor Labrousse in South Africa to secretly embark with him aboard the ship La Madeleine to the Antarctic.
