Read the details of this story in Pharaoh's Cigars. A stranger arrives in India to Tintin with a message of the utmost importance. Alas, he is immediately struck by an arrow poisoned with "poison-that-deprives-reason"! The poor man manages to say that Tintin is badly needed in Shanghai, and to say only one name: Mitsuhirato. Without hesitation, Tintin heads to China, where he meets members of the Sons of the Dragon, a secret society whose purpose is to fight opium. They do not yet know that drug dealers will stop at nothing to get Tintin out of the game.
