That is still your opinion?" asked Koupriane. "Yes." "You know that nothing has been found here in his rooms. The only compromising papers that have been found belong to Boris Mourazoff." "Why do you say that?" "Oh nothing." Koupriane questioned his men further. They replied categorically.
"But Ermolai ought to know where they are," exclaimed Koupriane. "Perhaps they have gone, finding out they were discovered." "They have assassinated Ermolai." "Assassinated Ermolai!" "I have seen his body lying in the middle of the drawing-room as I leaned over the top of the banister.
All moving about ceased; no more steps were heard, nothing. And that sudden silence made the two "doctors" raise their faces toward the ceiling. Then they exchanged an aroused glance. This change in the manner of things above was dangerous. Koupriane muttered, "The idiots!"
Galitch had an exultant air which Koupriane did not mistake. Evidently he had arrived too late. He felt the certainty of it in profound discouragement. And this appearance of the prince on the Barque explained convincingly enough the reason for Katharina's flight here. If the Bohemian had filched the papers or the portfolio from the dead, it was the prince now who had them in his pocket.
Koupriane couldn't help noticing how strange he looked. He passed through a court with him, and into a squalid shop. "What," said Koupriane, "do you know Pere Alexis?" They were in the midst of a curious litter.
Well, you understand now that if you were to say to Koupriane, 'Gaspadine Gounsovski has spoken ill to me of Priemkof, he would not care to hear a word further. Still, Priemkof is in the scheme for the living bombs, that is all I can tell you; at least, he was before the affair of the poisoning. That poisoning is certainly very astonishing, between us.
"If one outlined her crime to her, do you believe she would confess it? asked the Emperor. "I am so sure of it that I have had her brought here. By now Koupriane should be here at the chateau, with Matrena Petrovna." "You think of everything, monsieur." The Tsar moved to ring a bell. Rouletabille raised his hand. "Not yet, Sire.
"Still, it is strange these gentlemen had not been notified, because at the datcha the Trebassofs were told that the general's usual doctors were not at home and so the police had summoned two others who would arrive at once." Koupriane jumped up in the carriage. "But Kister and Litchkof had not left their houses. Kister, who had just met Litchkof, said so. What does this mean?"
Thaddeus Tchitchnikoff, who couldn't think of anything at all, blamed Koupriane and the rest of the police for not having devised something. Why hadn't they already got rid of these Nihilists?
"Madame, it is necessary that you tell me precisely what Koupriane has only hinted to me, unless I am entirely mistaken. The first time that you thought to examine the floor, was it after you heard a noise on the ground-floor such as has just happened?" "Yes. I will tell you all that is necessary.
