He groaned and tried to forget his sorrows by forcing himself to read.

As it is they are continually reproaching me with what they call my mistaken clemency, and there would be no restraining them did they know of this. No, we had best leave them to themselves.

He did not know he was recognized and his place of retreat therefore known. Now the police had gone from cellar to garret. Koupriane came from the Trebassof villa and joined them, Rouletabille followed him.
