“
Well
,
”
I
said
wearily
,
“
I
suppose
someone
must
have
stepped
on
it
.
”
“
Exactly
,
”
said
Poirot
,
in
an
odd
voice
.
“
Someone
stepped
on
it
.
”
He
rose
from
his
knees
,
and
walked
slowly
across
to
the
mantelpiece
,
where
he
stood
abstractedly
fingering
the
ornaments
,
and
straightening
them
—
a
trick
of
his
when
he
was
agitated
.
“
Mon
ami
,
”
he
said
,
turning
to
me
,
“
somebody
stepped
on
that
cup
,
grinding
it
to
powder
,
and
the
reason
they
did
so
was
either
because
it
contained
strychnine
or
—
which
is
far
more
serious
—
because
it
did
not
contain
strychnine
!
”
I
made
no
reply
.
I
was
bewildered
,
but
I
knew
that
it
was
no
good
asking
him
to
explain
.
In
a
moment
or
two
he
roused
himself
,
and
went
on
with
his
investigations
.
He
picked
up
the
bunch
of
keys
from
the
floor
,
and
twirling
them
round
in
his
fingers
finally
selected
one
,
very
bright
and
shining
,
which
he
tried
in
the
lock
of
the
purple
despatch
-
case
.
It
fitted
,
and
he
opened
the
box
,
but
after
a
moment
’
s
hesitation
,
closed
and
relocked
it
,
and
slipped
the
bunch
of
keys
,
as
well
as
the
key
that
had
originally
stood
in
the
lock
,
into
his
own
pocket
.
“
I
have
no
authority
to
go
through
these
papers
.
But
it
should
be
done
—
at
once
!
”
He
then
made
a
very
careful
examination
of
the
drawers
of
the
wash
-
stand
.
Crossing
the
room
to
the
left
-
hand
window
,
a
round
stain
,
hardly
visible
on
the
dark
brown
carpet
,
seemed
to
interest
him
particularly
.
He
went
down
on
his
knees
,
examining
it
minutely
—
even
going
so
far
as
to
smell
it
.
Finally
,
he
poured
a
few
drops
of
the
cocoa
into
a
test
tube
,
sealing
it
up
carefully
.
His
next
proceeding
was
to
take
out
a
little
notebook
.
“
We
have
found
in
this
room
,
”
he
said
,
writing
busily
,
“
six
points
of
interest
.
Shall
I
enumerate
them
,
or
will
you
?
”
