"And you confided only in Mr. Kesselbach?"
"Yes. But, out of prudence, while showing him the sheet of letters and figures and the list of which I spoke to you, I kept both those documents in my own possession. Events have proved that I was right."
Lupin was now clinging to the door with both hands:
"Weber," he roared, "you're very indiscreet! I shall report you! . . . Steinweg, have you those documents?"
"Yes."
"Are they in a safe place?"
"Absolutely."
"In Paris?"
"No."
"So much the better. Don't forget that your life is in danger and that you have people after you."
