'
Well
?
'
said
the
girl
,
as
Fagin
paused
,
with
his
mouth
almost
touching
her
ear
,
and
his
eyes
looking
into
hers
.
'
No
matter
just
now
.
We
'll
talk
of
this
again
.
You
have
a
friend
in
me
,
Nance
;
a
staunch
friend
.
I
have
the
means
at
hand
,
quiet
and
close
.
If
you
want
revenge
on
those
that
treat
you
like
a
dog
--
like
a
dog
!
worse
than
his
dog
,
for
he
humours
him
sometimes
--
come
to
me
.
I
say
,
come
to
me
.
He
is
the
mere
hound
of
a
day
,
but
you
know
me
of
old
,
Nance
.
'
'
I
know
you
well
,
'
replied
the
girls
,
without
manifesting
the
least
emotion
.
'
Good-night
.

She
shrank
back
,
as
Fagin
offered
to
lay
his
hand
on
hers
,
but
said
good-night
again
,
in
a
steady
voice
,
and
,
answering
his
parting
look
with
a
nod
of
intelligence
,
closed
the
door
between
them
.
Fagin
walked
towards
his
home
,
intent
upon
the
thoughts
that
were
working
within
his
brain
.
He
had
conceived
the
idea
--
not
from
what
had
just
passed
though
that
had
tended
to
confirm
him
,
but
slowly
and
by
degrees
--
that
Nancy
,
wearied
of
the
housebreaker
's
brutality
,
had
conceived
an
attachment
for
some
new
friend
.
Her
altered
manner
,
her
repeated
absences
from
home
alone
,
her
comparative
indifference
to
the
interests
of
the
gang
for
which
she
had
once
been
so
zealous
,
and
,
added
to
these
,
her
desperate
impatience
to
leave
home
that
night
at
a
particular
hour
,
all
favoured
the
supposition
,
and
rendered
it
,
to
him
at
least
,
almost
matter
of
certainty
.
The
object
of
this
new
liking
was
not
among
his
myrmidons
.
He
would
be
a
valuable
acquisition
with
such
an
assistant
as
Nancy
,
and
must
(
thus
Fagin
argued
)
be
secured
without
delay
.
There
was
another
,
and
a
darker
object
,
to
be
gained
.
Sikes
knew
too
much
,
and
his
ruffian
taunts
had
not
galled
Fagin
the
less
,
because
the
wounds
were
hidden
.
The
girl
must
know
,
well
,
that
if
she
shook
him
off
,
she
could
never
be
safe
from
his
fury
,
and
that
it
would
be
surely
wreaked
--
to
the
maiming
of
limbs
,
or
perhaps
the
loss
of
life
--
on
the
object
of
her
more
recent
fancy
.

'
With
a
little
persuasion
,
'
thought
Fagin
,
'
what
more
likely
than
that
she
would
consent
to
poison
him
?
Women
have
done
such
things
,
and
worse
,
to
secure
the
same
object
before
now
.
There
would
be
the
dangerous
villain
:
the
man
I
hate
:
gone
;
another
secured
in
his
place
;
and
my
influence
over
the
girl
,
with
a
knowledge
of
this
crime
to
back
it
,
unlimited
.
'
These
things
passed
through
the
mind
of
Fagin
,
during
the
short
time
he
sat
alone
,
in
the
housebreaker
's
room
;
and
with
them
uppermost
in
his
thoughts
,
he
had
taken
the
opportunity
afterwards
afforded
him
,
of
sounding
the
girl
in
the
broken
hints
he
threw
out
at
parting
.
There
was
no
expression
of
surprise
,
no
assumption
of
an
inability
to
understand
his
meaning
.
The
girl
clearly
comprehended
it
.
Her
glance
at
parting
showed
THAT
.
But
perhaps
she
would
recoil
from
a
plot
to
take
the
life
of
Sikes
,
and
that
was
one
of
the
chief
ends
to
be
attained
