Casa secreta

De Edgar Wallace

Domnul T.B. Smith se uita la cei care zaceau neinsufletiti pe pamant. Dupa toate aparentele erau straini. Unul dintre ei era imbracat aproape luxos, in timp ce celalalt purta niste haine uzate de chelner sub un pardesiu lung ce-l acoperea de la gat si pana la picioare. Cei doi zaceau cu capetele foarte apropiate; unul dintre ei era insa cu fata in jos. Politistii sositi intre timp se straduiau sa tina la distanta multimea adunata. Intre timp domnul Smith examina cu atentie terenul. Gasi un revolver pe jos iar pe cel de al doilea, sub mortul cu fata in jos. In timp ce cadavrele erau duse in ambulanta, domnul Smith se adresa lui Farrington care continua sa tremure de frig, rugandu-l sa-i spuna ce vazuse.
