Jellicoe's passionless tone that disturbed the inspector exceedingly, for he turned to Thorndyke and said in a low tone: "I wonder what his game is? He can't get away, you know." "There are several possibilities," said Thorndyke. "M'yes," said Badger, stroking his chin perplexedly. "After all, is there any objection? His statement might save trouble, and you'd be on the safe side.
Whatever it had been he was disappointed, and he turned to me again, frowning perplexedly, and tugging at the lobe of his left ear, an old trick which reminded me of gruesome things we had lived through in the past. "Come on," he jerked. "It may be amongst the trees." From the tone of his voice I knew that he was tensed up nervously, and his mood but added to the apprehension of my own.

Alan, realizing that he could not help her and that his presence only made matters worse, went away perplexedly. The following week was a miserable one for him. His duties were distasteful to him and meeting his people a positive torture. Sometimes Mrs. Danby looked dubiously at him and seemed on the point of saying something but never said it.
"I am only temporarily attached to the castle staff." "Where do you come from?" "America, sir." Lord Belpher started. "America!" "Yes, sir. I am in England on a vacation. My cousin, Albert, is page boy at the castle, and he told me there were a few vacancies for extra help tonight, so I applied and was given the job." Lord Belpher frowned perplexedly. It all sounded entirely plausible.
"Pshaw!" said Yakov Tarasovich, as he spat angrily. "Oh, devil! Come, come, is that possible?" Foma sat all this time in his corner, listening to the conversation between the Mayakins, and, blinking perplexedly, he fixedly examined the newcomer.
He positively stuttered, "Yes, yes. But..." I got angry with what seemed stupid obstinacy. "You'd be having a rope twisted tight round your head, or red-hot irons at the soles of your feet, at this very moment, if it had not been for us," I said indignantly. He wiped his forehead perplexedly. "Phew, how you do talk!" he remonstrated. "What I mean is that my wife..." He stopped again, then went on.
"You nearly missed the train," said Farrell. "Did I?" questioned Crane, perplexedly. "I thought I got on in plenty of time." Farrell smiled knowingly, as befitted a man of his occupation a New Yorker, up to snuff. The veiled insinuation disgusted Crane. Was everything in the world vile?
At breakfast he received a telegram. Times were critical, and all eyes were on him as he read, and re-read, and frowned perplexedly. Then he turned to Iver. "Can you let me have a trap this afternoon, Iver?" "Of course, of course. But you're not going to leave us, I hope?" "Only just for the evening; I in fact I have to go to Blent." There was a moment's silence.
A look of almost childlike surprise came over the face of the girl, an expression implying that the other was making a mountain out of a mole-hill. "I really don't know," she said. Scotty took a chair, and ran his long fingers through his hair perplexedly. "Florence," he said, "at times you are simply maddening; and I do not want to be angry with you. Alec says he is waiting for an answer.
