Masters studied the assertion, then spoke: "Captain, I may look dumb, but I've been in the secret service long enough to be found out if I really am. I've a hunch you killed that sphere." "I've thought of that, but how could I? I didn't touch him." "Maybe you don't have to touch 'em to kill 'em. We don't know what they are, except they're different "
