Then Boris guarded, and Jorian in his turn threw, with a like result, though, perhaps, a little less featly done on Boris's part. All the while there was a clamant and manifold astonishment in the kitchen of the inn, together with prodigal and much-whispering wonder. Then ensued other plays. Boris stood with his elbow crooked and his left hand on his hip, with his back also turned to Jorian.
"A horrid little cankering jade a sort of black imp. I thought I had tucked him up snug in bed until the evening, and there, you have loosened the sheets, and he has sprung up again to confront me." Molly's honest face was undoubtedly troubled now, and there was a suspicion of tears in the blue eyes, which were nearly as frank and round as Boris's.
If he could but establish that, then Boris's boast that he would marry Mademoiselle Vseslavitch was vain indeed. Sir Paul was, indeed, confronted by a very Gordian knot of problems. He laughed a little as he made the simile to himself, until he reflected that he was not an Alexander armed with a sword who could disperse the problems at one blow.
He was not sure of the different parts which the weirdly associated people whom he had met that afternoon played in Boris's game. The young man Michael, with the large, cruel, red hands, was probably Boris's principal striking force in times of trouble. Boris himself, he imagined, furnished the brains. But what of the red-haired woman?
He saw the Russian push open the door of the "Buffalo" and heard the derisive roar from within which greeted his entrance. Scenting amusement at Boris's expense, Blagg followed. When he elbowed his way through the press of fishermen who thronged the "Buffalo" bar, he saw the Russian surrounded by a jeering crowd. "Got a job yet, Boris?" some one called.
Raisky entered the University, and spent the summer vacation with his aunt, Tatiana Markovna Berezhkov. His aunt lived in a family estate which Boris had inherited from his mother a piece of land on the Volga, close by a little town, with fifty souls and two residences, one built of stone and now neglected, the other a wooden building built by Boris's father.
His, indeed, would be the laborious task of unravelling them one by one; nor could he see any better way than by beginning at the very beginning, which, so far as he was concerned, meant a full knowledge of Boris's intimates and surroundings.
There's a nasty break there. You need a surgeon! Well, I'll have to do what I can for you until we can find one. Can you stand a little more pain? Niehoff, give me your emergency kit. You have the splints? So! I shall see what I can do." He was busy for a moment. Then with a sergeant, evidently his second in command, he withdrew to be out of Boris's hearing.
Boris had a powerful field glass, and through this he and Fred could see the very faces of the watching Germans. Hatred and fear mingled in the looks they sent after the invaders of their country. "One can't blame them," said Fred, with a shudder. "War's rather ghastly, isn't it, Boris?" He looked down into the garden, and Boris's eyes followed his. "Yes," said the Russian.
It would not matter with me, for they would only treat me as a prisoner." Fred was still unwilling. He had not Boris's Russian readiness to accept whatever came, but there was something about Ivan that convinced him that argument would be useless. "Go now," said Ivan, "and God go with you! I will see to it that Vladimir and the others follow."
