He
kept
on
shouting
,
"
He
's
sacking
his
lawyer
!
"
Leni
tried
to
rush
at
K.
but
the
businessman
got
in
her
way
so
that
she
shoved
him
away
with
her
fists
.
Then
,
still
with
her
hands
balled
into
fists
,
she
ran
after
K.
who
,
however
,
had
been
given
a
long
start
.
He
was
already
inside
the
lawyer
's
room
by
the
time
Leni
caught
up
with
him
.
He
had
almost
closed
the
door
behind
himself
,
but
Leni
held
the
door
open
with
her
foot
,
grabbed
his
arm
and
tried
to
pull
him
back
.
But
he
put
such
pressure
on
her
wrist
that
,
with
a
sigh
,
she
was
forced
to
release
him
.
She
did
not
dare
go
into
the
room
straight
away
,
and
K.
locked
the
door
with
the
key
.
332
"
I
've
been
waiting
for
you
a
very
long
time
,
"
said
the
lawyer
from
his
bed
.
He
had
been
reading
something
by
the
light
of
a
candle
but
now
he
laid
it
onto
the
bedside
table
and
put
his
glasses
on
,
looking
at
K.
sharply
through
them
.
Instead
of
apologising
K.
said
,
"
I
'll
be
leaving
again
soon
.
"
As
he
had
not
apologised
the
lawyer
ignored
what
K.
said
,
and
replied
,
"
I
wo
n't
let
you
in
this
late
again
next
time
.
"
"
I
find
that
quite
acceptable
,
"
said
K
.
The
lawyer
looked
at
him
quizzically
.
"
Sit
down
,
"
he
said
.
"
As
you
wish
,
"
said
K.
,
drawing
a
chair
up
to
the
bedside
table
and
sitting
down
.
"
It
seemed
to
me
that
you
locked
the
door
,
"
said
the
lawyer
.
"
Yes
,
"
said
K.
,
"
it
was
because
of
Leni
.
"
He
had
no
intention
of
letting
anyone
off
lightly
.
But
the
lawyer
asked
him
,
"
Was
she
being
importunate
again
?
"
"
Importunate
?
"
asked
K.
333
"
Yes
,
"
said
the
lawyer
,
laughing
as
he
did
so
,
had
a
fit
of
coughing
and
then
,
once
it
had
passed
,
began
to
laugh
again
.
"
I
'm
sure
you
must
have
noticed
how
importunate
she
can
be
sometimes
,
"
he
said
,
and
patted
K.
's
hand
which
K.
had
rested
on
the
bedside
table
and
which
he
now
snatched
back
.
"
You
do
n't
attach
much
importance
to
it
,
then
,
"
said
the
lawyer
when
K.
was
silent
,
"
so
much
the
better
.
Otherwise
I
might
have
needed
to
apologise
to
you
.
It
is
a
peculiarity
of
Leni
's
.
I
've
long
since
forgiven
her
for
it
,
and
I
would
n't
be
talking
of
it
now
,
if
you
had
n't
locked
the
door
just
now
.
Anyway
,
perhaps
I
should
at
least
explain
this
peculiarity
of
hers
to
you
,
but
you
seem
rather
disturbed
,
the
way
you
're
looking
at
me
,
and
so
that
's
why
I
'll
do
it
,
this
peculiarity
of
hers
consists
in
this
;
Leni
finds
most
of
the
accused
attractive
.
She
attaches
herself
to
each
of
them
,
loves
each
of
them
,
even
seems
to
be
loved
by
each
of
them
;
then
she
sometimes
entertains
me
by
telling
me
about
them
when
I
allow
her
to
.
I
am
not
so
astonished
by
all
of
this
as
you
seem
to
be
.
If
you
look
at
them
in
the
right
way
the
accused
really
can
be
attractive
,
quite
often
.
But
that
is
a
remarkable
and
to
some
extent
scientific
phenomenon
.
Being
indicted
does
not
cause
any
clear
,
precisely
definable
change
in
a
person
's
appearance
,
of
course
.
But
it
's
not
like
with
other
legal
matters
,
most
of
them
remain
in
their
usual
way
of
life
and
,
if
they
have
a
good
lawyer
looking
after
them
,
the
trial
does
n't
get
in
their
way
.

But
there
are
nonetheless
those
who
have
experience
in
these
matters
who
can
look
at
a
crowd
,
however
big
,
and
tell
you
which
among
them
is
facing
a
charge
.
How
can
they
do
that
,
you
will
ask
.
My
answer
will
not
please
you
.
It
is
simply
that
those
who
are
facing
a
charge
are
the
most
attractive
.
It
can
not
be
their
guilt
that
makes
them
attractive
as
not
all
of
them
are
guilty
-
at
least
that
's
what
I
,
as
a
lawyer
,
have
to
say
-
and
nor
can
it
be
the
proper
punishment
that
has
made
them
attractive
as
not
all
of
them
are
punished
,
so
it
can
only
be
that
the
proceedings
levelled
against
them
take
some
kind
of
hold
on
them
.
Whatever
the
reason
,
some
of
these
attractive
people
are
indeed
very
attractive
.
But
all
of
them
are
attractive
,
even
Block
,
pitiful
worm
that
he
is
.
"
As
the
lawyer
finished
what
he
was
saying
,
K.
was
fully
in
control
of
himself
,
he
had
even
nodded
conspicuously
at
his
last
few
words
in
order
to
confirm
to
himself
the
view
he
had
already
formed
;
that
the
lawyer
was
trying
to
confuse
him
,
as
he
always
did
,
by
making
general
and
irrelevant
observations
,
and
thus
distract
him
from
the
main
question
of
what
he
was
actually
doing
for
K.
's
trial
.
The
lawyer
must
have
noticed
that
K.
was
offering
him
more
resistance
than
before
,
as
he
became
silent
,
giving
K.
the
chance
to
speak
himself
,
and
then
,
as
K.
also
remained
silent
,
he
asked
,
"
Did
you
have
a
particular
reason
for
coming
to
see
me
today
?
"
"
Yes
,
"
said
K.
335
,
putting
his
hand
up
to
slightly
shade
his
eyes
from
the
light
of
the
candle
so
that
he
could
see
the
lawyer
better
,
"
I
wanted
to
tell
you
that
I
'm
withdrawing
my
representation
from
you
,
with
immediate
effect
.
"
"
Do
I
understand
you
rightly
?
"
asked
the
lawyer
as
he
half
raised
himself
in
his
bed
and
supported
himself
with
one
hand
on
the
pillow
.
"
I
think
you
do
,
"
said
K.
,
sitting
stiffly
upright
as
if
waiting
in
ambush
.
"
Well
we
can
certainly
discuss
this
plan
of
yours
,
"
said
the
lawyer
after
a
pause
.
"
It
's
not
a
plan
any
more
,
"
said
K.
"
That
may
be
,
"
said
the
lawyer
,
"
but
we
still
must
n't
rush
anything
.
"
He
used
the
word
"
we
"
,
as
if
he
had
no
intention
of
letting
K.
go
free
,
and
as
if
,
even
if
he
could
no
longer
represent
him
,
he
could
still
at
least
continue
as
his
adviser
.
"
Nothing
is
being
rushed
,
"
said
K.
,
standing
slowly
up
and
going
behind
his
chair
,
"
everything
has
been
well
thought
out
and
probably
even
for
too
long
.
The
decision
is
final
.
"
"
Then
allow
me
to
say
a
few
words
,
"
said
the
lawyer
,
throwing
the
bed
cover
to
one
side
and
sitting
on
the
edge
of
the
bed
.
His
naked
,
white
-
haired
legs
shivered
in
the
cold
.
He
asked
K.
to
pass
him
a
blanket
from
the
couch
.
K.
passed
him
the
blanket
and
said
,
"
You
are
running
the
risk
of
catching
cold
for
no
reason
.
"
"
The
circumstances
are
important
enough
,
"
said
the
lawyer
as
he
wrapped
the
bed
cover
around
the
top
half
of
his
body
and
then
the
blanket
around
his
legs
.
"
Your
uncle
is
my
friend
and
in
the
course
of
time
I
've
become
fond
of
you
as
well
.
I
admit
that
quite
openly
.
336
There
's
nothing
in
that
for
me
to
be
ashamed
of
.
"
It
was
very
unwelcome
for
K.
to
hear
the
old
man
speak
in
this
touching
way
,
as
it
forced
him
to
explain
himself
more
fully
,
which
he
would
rather
have
avoided
,
and
he
was
aware
that
it
also
confused
him
even
though
it
could
never
make
him
reverse
his
decision
.
"
Thank
you
for
feeling
so
friendly
toward
me
,
"
he
said
,
"
and
I
also
realise
how
deeply
involved
you
've
been
in
my
case
,
as
deeply
as
possible
for
yourself
and
to
bring
as
much
advantage
as
possible
to
me
.
Nonetheless
,
I
have
recently
come
to
the
conviction
that
it
is
not
enough
.
I
would
naturally
never
attempt
,
considering
that
you
are
so
much
older
and
more
experienced
than
I
am
,
to
convince
you
of
my
opinion
;
if
I
have
ever
unintentionally
done
so
then
I
beg
your
forgiveness
,
but
,
as
you
have
just
said
yourself
,
the
circumstances
are
important
enough
and
it
is
my
belief
that
my
trial
needs
to
be
approached
with
much
more
vigour
than
has
so
far
been
the
case
.
"
"
I
see
,
"
said
the
lawyer
,
"
you
've
become
impatient
.
"
"
I
am
not
impatient
,
"
said
K.
,
with
some
irritation
and
he
stopped
paying
so
much
attention
to
his
choice
of
words
.
"
When
I
first
came
here
with
my
uncle
you
probably
noticed
I
was
n't
greatly
concerned
about
my
case
,
and
if
I
was
n't
reminded
of
it
by
force
,
as
it
were
,
I
would
forget
about
it
completely
.
But
my
uncle
insisted
I
should
allow
you
to
represent
me
and
I
did
so
as
a
favour
to
him
.
I
could
have
expected
the
case
to
be
less
of
a
burden
than
it
had
been
,
as
the
point
of
taking
on
a
lawyer
is
that
he
should
take
on
some
of
its
weight
.
337
But
what
actually
happened
was
the
opposite
.
Before
,
the
trial
was
never
such
a
worry
for
me
as
it
has
been
since
you
've
been
representing
me
.
When
I
was
by
myself
I
never
did
anything
about
my
case
,
I
was
hardly
aware
of
it
,
but
then
,
once
there
was
someone
representing
me
,
everything
was
set
for
something
to
happen
,
I
was
always
,
without
cease
,
waiting
for
you
to
do
something
,
getting
more
and
more
tense
,
but
you
did
nothing
.
I
did
get
some
information
about
the
court
from
you
that
I
probably
could
not
have
got
anywhere
else
,
but
that
ca
n't
be
enough
when
the
trial
,
supposedly
in
secret
,
is
getting
closer
and
closer
to
me
.
"
K.
had
pushed
the
chair
away
and
stood
erect
,
his
hands
in
the
pockets
of
his
frock
coat
.
"
After
a
certain
point
in
the
proceedings
,
"
said
the
lawyer
quietly
and
calmly
,
"
nothing
new
of
any
importance
ever
happens
.
So
many
litigants
,
at
the
same
stage
in
their
trials
,
have
stood
before
me
just
like
you
are
now
and
spoken
in
the
same
way
.
"
"
Then
these
other
litigants
,
"
said
K.
,
"
have
all
been
right
,
just
as
I
am
.
That
does
not
show
that
I
'm
not
.
"
"
I
was
n't
trying
to
show
that
you
were
mistaken
,
"
said
the
lawyer
,
"
but
I
wanted
to
add
that
I
expected
better
judgement
from
you
than
from
the
others
,
especially
as
I
've
given
you
more
insight
into
the
workings
of
the
court
and
my
own
activities
than
I
normally
do
.
And
now
I
'm
forced
to
accept
that
,
despite
everything
,
you
have
too
little
trust
in
me
.
You
do
n't
make
it
easy
for
me
.
"
How
the
lawyer
was
humiliating
himself
to
K.
Отключить рекламу
338
He
was
showing
no
regard
for
the
dignity
of
his
position
,
which
on
this
point
,
must
have
been
at
its
most
sensitive
.
And
why
did
he
do
that
?
He
did
seem
to
be
very
busy
as
a
lawyer
as
well
a
rich
man
,
neither
the
loss
of
income
nor
the
loss
of
a
client
could
have
been
of
much
importance
to
him
in
themselves
.
He
was
moreover
unwell
and
should
have
been
thinking
of
passing
work
on
to
others
.
And
despite
all
that
he
held
on
tightly
to
K.
Why
?
Was
it
something
personal
for
his
uncle
's
sake
,
or
did
he
really
see
K.
's
case
as
one
that
was
exceptional
and
hoped
to
be
able
to
distinguish
himself
with
it
,
either
for
K.
's
sake
or
-
and
this
possibility
could
never
be
excluded
-
for
his
friends
at
the
court
?
It
was
not
possible
to
learn
anything
by
looking
at
him
,
even
though
K.
was
scrutinizing
him
quite
brazenly
.
It
could
almost
be
supposed
he
was
deliberately
hiding
his
thoughts
as
he
waited
to
see
what
effect
his
words
would
have
.
But
he
clearly
deemed
K.
's
silence
to
be
favourable
for
himself
and
he
continued
,
"
You
will
have
noticed
the
size
of
my
office
,
but
that
I
do
n't
employ
any
staff
to
help
me
.
That
used
to
be
quite
different
,
there
was
a
time
when
several
young
lawyers
were
working
for
me
but
now
I
work
alone
.
This
is
partly
to
do
with
changes
in
the
way
I
do
business
,
in
that
I
concentrate
nowadays
more
and
more
on
matters
such
as
your
own
case
,
and
partly
to
do
with
the
ever
deeper
understanding
that
I
acquire
from
these
legal
matters
.
339
I
found
that
I
could
never
let
anyone
else
deal
with
this
sort
of
work
unless
I
wanted
to
harm
both
the
client
and
the
job
I
had
taken
on
.
But
the
decision
to
do
all
the
work
myself
had
its
obvious
result
:
I
was
forced
to
turn
almost
everyone
away
who
asked
me
to
represent
them
and
could
only
accept
those
I
was
especially
interested
in
-
well
there
are
enough
creatures
who
leap
at
every
crumb
I
throw
down
,
and
they
're
not
so
very
far
away
.
Most
importantly
,
I
became
ill
from
over-work
.
But
despite
that
I
do
n't
regret
my
decision
,
quite
possibly
I
should
have
turned
more
cases
away
than
I
did
,
but
it
did
turn
out
to
be
entirely
necessary
for
me
to
devote
myself
fully
to
the
cases
I
did
take
on
,
and
the
successful
results
showed
that
it
was
worth
it
.
I
once
read
a
description
of
the
difference
between
representing
someone
in
ordinary
legal
matters
and
in
legal
matters
of
this
sort
,
and
the
writer
expressed
it
very
well
.
This
is
what
he
said
:
some
lawyers
lead
their
clients
on
a
thread
until
judgement
is
passed
,
but
there
are
others
who
immediately
lift
their
clients
onto
their
shoulders
and
carry
them
all
the
way
to
the
judgement
and
beyond
.
That
's
just
how
it
is
.
But
it
was
quite
true
when
I
said
I
never
regret
all
this
work
.
But
if
,
as
in
your
case
,
they
are
so
fully
misunderstood
,
well
,
then
I
come
very
close
to
regretting
it
.
"
All
this
talking
did
more
to
make
K.
impatient
than
to
persuade
him
.
From
the
way
the
lawyer
was
speaking
,
K.
340
thought
he
could
hear
what
he
could
expect
if
he
gave
in
,
the
delays
and
excuses
would
begin
again
,
reports
of
how
the
documents
were
progressing
,
how
the
mood
of
the
court
officials
had
improved
,
as
well
as
all
the
enormous
difficulties
-
in
short
all
that
he
had
heard
so
many
times
before
would
be
brought
out
again
even
more
fully
,
he
would
try
to
mislead
K.
with
hopes
that
were
never
specified
and
to
make
him
suffer
with
threats
that
were
never
clear
.
He
had
to
put
a
stop
to
that
,
so
he
said
,
"
What
will
you
undertake
on
my
behalf
if
you
continue
to
represent
me
?
"
The
lawyer
quietly
accepted
even
this
insulting
question
,
and
answered
,
"
I
should
continue
with
what
I
've
already
been
doing
for
you
.
"
"
That
's
just
what
I
thought
,
"
said
K.
,
"
and
now
you
do
n't
need
to
say
another
word
.
"
"
I
will
make
one
more
attempt
,
"
said
the
lawyer
as
if
whatever
had
been
making
K.
so
annoyed
was
affecting
him
too
.
"
You
see
,
I
have
the
impression
that
you
have
not
only
misjudged
the
legal
assistance
I
have
given
you
but
also
that
that
misjudgement
has
led
you
to
behave
in
this
way
,
you
seem
,
although
you
are
the
accused
,
to
have
been
treated
too
well
or
,
to
put
it
a
better
way
,
handled
with
neglect
,
with
apparent
neglect
.
Even
that
has
its
reason
;
it
is
often
better
to
be
in
chains
than
to
be
free
.
But
I
would
like
to
show
you
how
other
defendants
are
treated
,
perhaps
you
will
succeed
in
learning
something
from
it
.
What
I
will
do
is
I
will
call
Block
in
,
unlock
the
door
and
sit
down
here
beside
the
bedside
table
.
"
"
Be
glad
to
,
"
said
K.
