And the question that arises is this: having got hold of Rose Andree, would it not occur to Dalbreque, when passing near the forest on the Saturday night, to hide his prey there, while his two accomplices went on to Dreux and from there returned to Paris? The cave was quite near. Was he not bound to go to it? How should he do otherwise?
Attached to the inn was a small cafe from which they were separated by the entrance to the yard and above which were two rooms, reached by a wooden outer staircase, at one side. Dalbreque occupied one of these rooms and Renine took the other for his chauffeur.
One night was enough to tame the little rogue and to make Dalbreque as handsome as Prince Charming in her eyes! For see the difference. On the films or in novels, the Happy Princesses resist or commit suicide. But in real life ... oh, woman, woman!" "Yes," said Hortense, "but the man she loves is almost certainly dead." "And a good thing too! It would be the best solution.
He therefore went back to the village, with the firm intention of taking action that evening and employing force: "This state of things cannot go on," he said to Hortense. "I must rescue Rose Andree at all costs and save her from that ruffian's clutches. He must be made to speak. He must. Otherwise there's a danger that we may be too late." That day was Sunday; and Dalbreque did not go to work.
But Dalbreque, though quite unconscious of their presence, changed his mind and went back to his room as though he had forgotten something. "Now's the time!" said Renine. "I'm going to risk it. But it's a difficult situation and I've no great hopes."
"Is one Dalbreque, originally a scene-painter, who played the butler in the first part of the film and the man of the woods in the second and was so much appreciated that they engaged him for a new film. Consequently, he has been acting lately. He was acting near Paris.
Four men downstairs. Myself here, my chauffeur in the next room. You're done for. Do you want me to save you?" Dalbreque gave his adversary a long look: "Who are you?" "A friend of Rose Andree's," said Renine. The other started and, to some extent dropping his mask, retorted: "What are your conditions?" "Rose Andree, whom you have abducted and tormented, is dying in some hole or corner.
And up to now the enquiry has revealed two things, which will appear in the papers to-morrow: first, Dalbreque is alleged to have committed a murder which created a great stir last year, the murder of Bourguet, the jeweller; secondly, on the day after his two robberies, Dalbreque was driving through Le Havre in a motor-car with two men who helped him to carry off, in broad daylight and in a crowded street, a lady whose identity has not yet been discovered."
Who will release her?" "You. You will speak now, or in an hour, or two hours hence at least. You will never have the heart to keep silent and let her die." Dalbreque shrugged his shoulders. Then, raising his hand, he said: "I swear on my life that, if they arrest me, not a word will leave my lips." "What then?" "Then save me.
Dalbreque is alive. They have put him to bed in a private room at the mayor's offices. He has a broken leg and a rather high temperature; but all the same they expect to move him to Rouen to-morrow and they have telephoned there for a motor-car." "And then?" asked Rose Andree, anxiously. Renine smiled: "Why, then we shall leave at daybreak.
