Although
Langdon
knew
the
elevator
would
expedite
the
long
,
two
-
story
climb
to
the
Denon
Wing
,
he
remained
motionless
.
«
Is
something
wrong
?
»
Fache
was
holding
the
door
,
looking
impatient
.
Langdon
exhaled
,
turning
a
longing
glance
back
up
the
open
-
air
escalator
.
Nothing
’
s
wrong
at
all
,
he
lied
to
himself
,
trudging
back
toward
the
elevator
.
As
a
boy
,
Langdon
had
fallen
down
an
abandoned
well
shaft
and
almost
died
treading
water
in
the
narrow
space
for
hours
before
being
rescued
.
Since
then
,
he
’
d
suffered
a
haunting
phobia
of
enclosed
spaces
–
elevators
,
subways
,
squash
courts
.
The
elevator
is
a
perfectly
safe
machine
,
Langdon
continually
told
himself
,
never
believing
it
.
It
’
s
a
tiny
metal
box
hanging
in
an
enclosed
shaft
!
Holding
his
breath
,
he
stepped
into
the
lift
,
feeling
the
familiar
tingle
of
adrenaline
as
the
doors
slid
shut
.
Two
floors
.
Ten
seconds
.
«
You
and
Mr
.
Saunière
,
»
Fache
said
as
the
lift
began
to
move
,
»
you
never
spoke
at
all
?
Never
corresponded
?
Never
sent
each
other
anything
in
the
mail
?
»
Another
odd
question
.
Langdon
shook
his
head
.
«
No
.
Never
.
»
Fache
cocked
his
head
,
as
if
making
a
mental
note
of
that
fact
.
Saying
nothing
,
he
stared
dead
ahead
at
the
chrome
doors
.
As
they
ascended
,
Langdon
tried
to
focus
on
anything
other
than
the
four
walls
around
him
.
In
the
reflection
of
the
shiny
elevator
door
,
he
saw
the
captain
’
s
tie
clip
–
a
silver
crucifix
with
thirteen
embedded
pieces
of
black
onyx
.
Langdon
found
it
vaguely
surprising
.
The
symbol
was
known
as
a
crux
gemmata
–
a
cross
bearing
thirteen
gems
–
a
Christian
ideogram
for
Christ
and
His
twelve
apostles
.
Somehow
Langdon
had
not
expected
the
captain
of
the
French
police
to
broadcast
his
religion
so
openly
.
Then
again
,
this
was
France
;
Christianity
was
not
a
religion
here
so
much
as
a
birthright
.
«
It
’
s
a
crux
gemmata
»
Fache
said
suddenly
.
Startled
,
Langdon
glanced
up
to
find
Fache
’
s
eyes
on
him
in
the
reflection
.
The
elevator
jolted
to
a
stop
,
and
the
doors
opened
.
Langdon
stepped
quickly
out
into
the
hallway
,
eager
for
the
wide
-
open
space
afforded
by
the
famous
high
ceilings
of
the
Louvre
galleries
.
The
world
into
which
he
stepped
,
however
,
was
nothing
like
he
expected
.
Surprised
,
Langdon
stopped
short
.
