She flashed him a grateful glance, and, acting on impulse, gnre him her hand. He patted it reassuringly and said, "Hop in and let ms drive you around the corner." "No," she said, "I'll walk. I'll mnko it all right. She walked rapidly around the cor ner and noticed with some annoy ance that she had developed a habit of looking back over her shoulder to see if she were being followed. She found that, without conscious volition on her part, she was me chanically retracing the course which had been taken by the taxicab when she hnd fled from the apartment and suddenly realized that her route would take her iist the big garage which the cab driver had pointed out to tier when she had asked him to park. , . A garage! That must be where Vera Duchene and Bob Caise had been going when they had walked so rapidly and pur posefully past ber. Sho increased her pace, walked to I the garage, entered it and smiled at the man on duty. "A innn and a woman came in here I about half an hour ago," she said, j for an automobile. I wonder if there, s any chance you would re member the car or the people." "What sort of car?" he nsked. "I don't know, but I think it was j a cabriolet not one that's stored here regularly. He shook his head. "No," he said, "I don't think there's been a tran sient car in here all evening. Most or our stuff is storngc by the month. Seems to me we did have a transient too, but I can't remember the people. I I'm new here. Ivots of 'em I don't know." An idea flushed uim-kly through I her mind. 'lo you store a car for a Phyllis Faulconer?' she asked. "Why, yes," he said. "A black I sedan, license number 9.13410." "jnais the one," she said ex-1 citedly. "Could I see it for a mo ment?" He looked at her suspiciously, but I she gave him a reassuring smile. "I I just want to look at It," she said. "I'm very much interested." 'Its on the second floor, he said. "I guess I should go up with you. but you look all right, so I'll let you go on up by yourself. I've got to fctny on duty down here. She thought then that there was something peculiarly significant about bis expression. It was as though he wanted to warn her of some impend ing danger, yet dared not do so. She started toward the stntrs to the second floor, but turned when she had gone a few steps to give him one more glance. This time there cotil dbe no mis take. He was looking at her with an expression of pity, but he turned his eyes away almost as soon as she en countered his gaze. Millicent decided that, after all, It was merely her imagination. She climbed the stairs to the sec ond floor. An elevator was in one I corner of a big room, divided into I stalls in which automobiles were I parked, side by side. Millicent found the car she want ed a black sedan. license 9 3410, She wondered if perhaps there might be some clew in this car which would help her locate Norman Happ. She opened the donr opposite the drivers! seat, climbed into the front seat and leaned forward to inspect the regis tration certificate. She frit the springs of the car sway. Someone had been concealed In the I rear of that car, someone who was now moving. She looked bark over her shoulder. and encountered a clutching hand reaching out for hr arm. She screamed. Millicent's scream was swallowed up in the vast emptiness of the dark con crete room with its parked automo biles, gloomy, sinister and silent, as sole witness to that which was taking place.
