He was told that I would be disfigured for life that every feature was destroyed except my sight. That was enough for him. He asked no more questions, but simply went away." "Coward!" cried Ralph, his face white. "Cur!" Miss Evelina's eyes gleamed with subtle triumph. "What would you?" she asked unemotionally.
"Ah!" said Foyle unemotionally. Day had long dawned ere Foyle and his staff had finished their work at the great house in Grosvenor Gardens. There had been much to do, for every person who might possibly throw a light on the tragedy had to be questioned and requestioned.
The Laspara girl on guard rose, and pulled the chair out of the way unemotionally. She gave a sleepy stare to Razumov, who started, looked round the room and passed slowly by her as if struck by some sudden thought. "I beg you to observe," he said, already on the landing, "that I had only to hold my tongue.
He stalked, stiffly, unemotionally out of the darkness south of the camp and across the open space within thirty feet of the fire, where sat the startled, chill-thrilled group of girls, speechless with something akin to fear and momentarily powerless to shake off the spell that held them as rigid as statues.
Eight did it, with squeezing. This, then, was the atmosphere in which Fanny Brandeis found herself. As far from Haynes-Cooper as anything could be.

"Yes, I heard what she said," responded Emma unemotionally. "I am so glad she has decided to trust me." "It might be better for all concerned if she had trusted you in the beginning," was Emma's dry retort.

Soundlessly, unemotionally, Steve closed the door on that figure on the bunk edge which, suddenly slack of limb and shoulder, had averted its face.
A case has been reported which I want you to take over; a suspected murder; man found dead in a taxi at King's Cross." "Yes, sir," Willis answered unemotionally. "Any details forward?" "None, except that the man is dead and that they're holding the taxi at the station. I have asked Dr. Horton to come round, and you had both better get over there as quickly as possible."
