later there came muttered objection,
and Eugene turned: Surely that's
not accurate, Mr. Melville!'
1t was obvious that the unseen man
had some knowledge of science. Mel
vile amplified the statement and con-
tinued, but was interrupted second
time when hand came down sharply
upon the table He could see the long
powerful fingers. and again the foreign
voice whispered an objection which
Eugene translated. With muttered
apology. Richard corrected the slip
he had made - rather obvious slip,
but one which only a scientist would
have noticed. 1t took him nearly a
quarter of an hour to complete the
formulae and processes of the dis
carded alloy, and at last he rose to his.
feet.
We'll. think that's all" he re-
marked with shrug, 80 I'll say good
evening"
Eugene had moved past him to-
wards the door.
Miss Renard will drive you back
to your hotel, MIR. Melville" he said
in low voice, but not to-nightr'
What the devil do you mean?"
Melville took a stride forward. his
fist clenched.
THE formulae you have given us
must be tested in a laboratory. un-
derstand it will take twenty-four
hours. Until then, you remain here as
our guestr'
A small blue-black automatic was
suddenly in Eugene's hand. His thin
lips parted in an unpleasant smile as
he pointed to door on the left. Your
room is upstairs, MIR. Melville. Valerie
will show you
With a burst of anger, Richard
seized the chair at his side. He was
raising it above his head when the
automatic spat viciously. The bullet
grazed his cheek and entered the
wall behind him. As the chair dropped
from his hands. the other mans eyes
glittered.
You see, Mr.. Melville, it would be
a pity if you refused our hospitalityr'
Valerie Renard had already opened
the door, and she looked back over her
shoulder. From where she stood. she
could not be seen by Eugene; but
Richard Melville could not fail to
note the look on her face With her
fingers on her lips, she gave him an
enigmatic smile and began slowly to
mount the stairs.
