Bobby didn't care to meet the uncommunicative eyes whose depths he had never been able to explore. Was there a special power there that could control the destinies of other people, that might make men walk unconsciously to accomplish the ends of an unscrupulous brain? The district attorney appeared as much at sea as the others. BOBBY DIDN'T CARE TO MEET THE UNCOMMUNICATIVE EYES WHOSE DEPTHS HE HAD NEVER BEEN ABLE TO EXPLORE WAS THERE SPECIAL POWER THERE THAT COULD CONTROL THE DESTINIES OF OTHER PEOPLE THAT MIGHT MAKE MEN WALK UNCONSCIOUSLY TO ACCOMPLISH THE ENDS OF AN UNSCRUPULOUS BRAIN THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY APPEARED AS MUCH AT SEA AS THE OTHERS
an the knowledge Graham desired, loomed the old question. What was the man's game? What held him here? Robinson entered. The flesh around his eyes was puffier than it had been yesterday. Worry had increased the incongruous discontent of his round face. Clearly he had slept little. "I saw you arrive," he said. "Rawlins warned me. But I must say I didn't think you'd use your freedom to come to us." Paredes laughed. "Since the law won't hold me at your convenience in Smithtown I keep myself at your service here--if Bobby permits it. Could you ask more?" Bobby shrank from the man with whom he had idled away so much time and money. That fleeting, satanic impression of yesterday came back, sharper, more alarming. Paredes's clear challenge to the district attorney was the measure of his strength. His mind was subtler than theirs. His reserve and easy daring mastered them all; and always, as now, he laughed at the futility of their efforts to sound his purposes, to limit his freedom of action.
