We
were
detained
under
suspicion
by
the
hospital
porter
,
until
Cynthia
appeared
to
vouch
for
us
,
looking
very
cool
and
sweet
in
her
long
white
overall
.
She
took
us
up
to
her
sanctum
,
and
introduced
us
to
her
fellow
dispenser
,
a
rather
awe
-
inspiring
individual
,
whom
Cynthia
cheerily
addressed
as
“
Nibs
.
”
“
What
a
lot
of
bottles
!
”
I
exclaimed
,
as
my
eye
travelled
round
the
small
room
.
“
Do
you
really
know
what
’
s
in
them
all
?
”
“
Say
something
original
,
”
groaned
Cynthia
.
“
Every
single
person
who
comes
up
here
says
that
.
We
are
really
thinking
of
bestowing
a
prize
on
the
first
individual
who
does
not
say
:
‘
What
a
lot
of
bottles
!
’
And
I
know
the
next
thing
you
’
re
going
to
say
is
:
‘
How
many
people
have
you
poisoned
?
’
”
I
pleaded
guilty
with
a
laugh
.
“
If
you
people
only
knew
how
fatally
easy
it
is
to
poison
someone
by
mistake
,
you
wouldn
’
t
joke
about
it
.
Come
on
,
let
’
s
have
tea
.
We
’
ve
got
all
sorts
of
secret
stories
in
that
cupboard
.
No
,
Lawrence
—
that
’
s
the
poison
cupboard
.
The
big
cupboard
—
that
’
s
right
.
”
We
had
a
very
cheery
tea
,
and
assisted
Cynthia
to
wash
up
afterwards
.
We
had
just
put
away
the
last
tea
-
spoon
when
a
knock
came
at
the
door
.
The
countenances
of
Cynthia
and
Nibs
were
suddenly
petrified
into
a
stern
and
forbidding
expression
.
“
Come
in
,
”
said
Cynthia
,
in
a
sharp
professional
tone
.
A
young
and
rather
scared
looking
nurse
appeared
with
a
bottle
which
she
proffered
to
Nibs
,
who
waved
her
towards
Cynthia
with
the
somewhat
enigmatical
remark
:
“
I
’
m
not
really
here
to
-
day
.
”
