-But then why didn't tney the
one who did it why dldnt he
die the way Dr. HutKrd did?"
"I Imagine he must have held
his breath while he poured the
tuff on and then gone out lmme-j
diately. closins, the door. There
.would have been enough of the
gas generated o that anyone
breathing it for. say, ten minutes
would set m fatal dose.
"So Dr. Hubbard really was mur
dered."
"The answer is yes. As It turns
out. Bray wasn't talking through
Ms hat. And that's why he paid
lor It with his u.e."
(Chaoter 23
What do we do now?" Blen
mierled.
- "Now we find out who else has
- borrowed the key from the jam
tor recently."
"Swell," she said. "You know.
I really think we're getting some
. where."
. "What's the name of the Janl-
tor?"
' "His name Is Al Vail and he
1 doesn't have a phone. But I have
his address on file in my office."
"Good. Let's get It and get out
of here."
As they turned to go he flashed
; the light around the room for
. a last look. on the seat of the
late professor's chair near the
dest lay a small dark object. Raff
went over and picked it up. He
heard Uen gasp and whirled
around.
A circle of light flowed from
a flashlight at the door.
"But, Miss Carter" It was a
r singsong voice witn a neavy
cent "you have given me a fright.
I thought it must be a burglar.
- Raff's flashlight came up and
- the light caught the newcomer
- full In the face. He was slight of
build with a very white face and
a black mustache.
- In his hand he held a syringe
lull ol num.
"Dr. Verek!" Ellen exclaimed
'What are you doing here?"
"The very same question I was
- going to ask you." Verek laughed
nervously, backing away as Kail
came closer.
"This is my fiance," Ellen aaid
oulckly. we have to meet se
cretly. Because of my father, you
know."
"Oh. yes." Verek 'a face was sym
pathetic almost to the point of
sorrow. "In my country such things
happen often. But you will be
happy." He bowed quickly to Raff
"My congratulations to you. She is
a fine girl. Yes, a fine girl. Now
excuse me. I do not wish to in
trude."
"Don't go. Dr. Verek. I've been
wanting to meet you for a long
time." Halls voice was unusually
charming and persuasive.
Verek faced him with sus
picion. "My name's Rafferty. I'm in surg
ery over at the University hospital.
I'm familiar with some of the
work you've done. I had no Idea
you were even in this country until
E31en mentioned It to me this eve
ning." "You know of my work?" The
delight in Verek's lace was hard
to conceal.
"Are you working on an experi
ment now?" Raff asked the ques
tion casually while he eyed the
syringe In Verek's hand. He
thought, If I can get that away
from him
"Oh, yes," said Verrk happily.
Tm Investigating dark adapta
tion under anesthesia. The guinea
Slgs. they have retinas similar to
umans, you know. I Inject them
with saline." He waved the syringe
vaguely. "Every three hours to
keep them from becoming dehydrat
ed. Otherwise, the results, they are
very variable." He beamed a friend
ly smile.
"Do you mftke your injections
In the dark. Raff asked.
"But of course. It is not diffi
cult to inject into the peritoneal
cavity of a guinea pig in the dark."
Tell me. Dr. Verek, could you
inject a man's vein in total dark
ness?" "A vein? No. That I do not
think I could do." He considered
the possibility. "Maybe, when I
was younger But now, see my
hands are no longer so steady."
He thrust his hands out and they
could see a slight tremor In them.
"I see you're using the Luer-
lock type of syringe. Doctor," said
tun casually. "Mind if I take
look at It?"
"But I am surprised. I thought
everyone uses them. Even in my
TOuiury we nave uiem. ne sur
rendered me syringe without a
protest.
Raff squirted some of the fluid
onto his finger. Ellen watched
him with growing horror. He
tasted it. It was plain common
salt. Verek looked as if he thought
Raff was mad.
Verek turned to so and bowed
to Ellen.
"Good night. It is ffood to t
people happy. See. I almost forgot I
about the tragedy this morning. A
pity real pity- tit shook his
neao mournfully.
Raff was struck with a sudden
thought. "Tell me, Doctor, were
fou working on the guinea pigs
asi nignir'
"Last night? But of course. Ev
ery night I have worked on the
experiment.
"Tell me. Dr. Verek. did vou
by any chance come up to make
an injecuon at onanism last
night?"
Exactly midnight? No. Last
night I made injections at nine-
aiteen and then again at twelve
fifteen, and at three-fifteen and
the last one at six-fifteen." Verek
counted these off on his fingers as
he talked.
"Wm Dr. Bray here at twelve
fifteen when you came up?"
