Both looked at the cards and imagined how their Alexey Stepanovitch, utterly forlorn, was sitting now in the town in his gloomy, empty study and working, hungry, exhausted, yearning for his family. . . . "Do you know what, mamma?" said Nadyezhda Filippovna suddenly, and her eyes began to shine. "If the weather is the same to-morrow I'll go by the first train and see him in town!
We were deliberating here whether to tell you at once or not?" "Nikolay Vsyevolodovitch, is he telling the truth?" Liza articulated faintly. "No; it's false." "False?" said Pyotr Stepanovitch, starting. "What do you mean by that?" "Heavens! I-shall go mad!" cried Liza. "Do you understand, anyway, that he is mad now!" Pyotr Stepanovitch cried at the top of his voice.
"If we decide to distribute such manifestoes," he said, quivering all over, "we'll make ourselves, contemptible by our stupidity and incompetence." "H'm! I think differently," said Pyotr Stepanovitch, walking on resolutely. "So do I; surely it isn't your work?" "That's not your business."
I need hardly say, in everything else, of course, you are free," Pyotr Stepanovitch added almost amiably. "I didn't bind myself, I agreed, because it makes no difference to me." "Good, good. I have no intention of wounding your vanity, but..." "It's not a question of vanity." "But remember that a hundred and twenty thalers were collected for your journey, so you've taken money." "Not at all."
One of his listeners observed that it was no good his "pretending"; that he had eaten and drunk and almost slept at Yulia Mihailovna's, yet now he was the first to blacken her character, and that this was by no means such a fine thing to do as he supposed. But Pyotr Stepanovitch immediately defended himself.
It turned out that he knew enough, and presented things in a fairly true light: the tragedy of Shatov and Kirillov, the fire, the death of the Lebyadkins, and the rest of it were relegated to the background. Pyotr Stepanovitch, the secret society, the organisation, and the network were put in the first place.
Virginsky," said Pyotr Stepanovitch, stepping up to him, "would you abandon not giving information; there's no question of that but any perilous public action which you had planned before you were happy and which you regarded as a duty and obligation in spite of the risk and loss of happiness?" "No, I wouldn't abandon it!
Everything seemed to show that he was hiding, yet somehow it was not easy to believe it. Pyotr Stepanovitch was standing a little sideways to the corner, and could only see the projecting parts of the figure. He could not bring himself to move to the left to get a full view of Kirillov and solve the mystery.
As for the mutiny they advocated, if the factory-workers did understand anything of their propaganda, they would have left off listening to it at once as to something stupid that had nothing to do with them. Fedka was a different matter: he had more success, I believe, than Pyotr Stepanovitch.
Looking once more at the document left on the table, he smiled mechanically and then went out of the house, still for some reason walking on tiptoe. He crept through Fedka's hole again and carefully replaced the posts after him. Precisely at ten minutes to six Pyotr Stepanovitch and Erkel were walking up and down the platform at the railway-station beside a rather long train.
