"From whom?"
"The men who came here before about Ballu and Dumont."
"Well, I suppose they did not find them this time either."
"They did not come for them, my pet."
"For whom did they come, then?"
"They came for you."
"For me? And to what do I owe the honor of their visit?"
"It seems that they are looking for the author of that little note."
"In which I told them to get away as soon as possible?"
"Yes."
