It was a somewhat difficult matter, but when Thirty-fourth Street was reached they were near enough for Nick to see Lannigan and the unknown descend from the car and go down Thirty-fourth Street.
“They are going to the place Patsy told about,” said Chick.
“Then,” said Nick, “they are looking after the two Patsy calls his assistants.”
“Spike Thomas and Bally Morris?”
“Yes. And——”
“They are the two Lannigan suspects of robbing him,” quickly put in Chick.
“That is the only conclusion.”
All this time Nick and Chick had been rapidly following the two down Thirty-fourth Street.
Reaching the last block they drew aside to watch the two, and saw them searching every one of the numerous saloons on that block without finding, apparently, what they sought for.
Having found nothing, they retraced their steps and again hurried in the direction of Third Avenue.
