Having
begun
by
walking
backward
in
order
to
bow
,
Richard
continued
to
do
so
from
prudence
,
until
he
reached
the
passage
leading
to
the
offices
of
the
management
.
In
this
way
,
he
was
constantly
watched
by
Moncharmin
from
behind
and
himself
kept
an
eye
on
any
one
approaching
from
the
front
.
Once
more
,
this
novel
method
of
walking
behind
the
scenes
,
adopted
by
the
managers
of
our
National
Academy
of
Music
,
attracted
attention
;
but
the
managers
themselves
thought
of
nothing
but
their
twenty
-
thousand
francs
.
On
reaching
the
half
-
dark
passage
,
Richard
said
to
Moncharmin
,
in
a
low
voice
:
"
I
am
sure
that
nobody
has
touched
me
.
.
.
You
had
now
better
keep
at
some
distance
from
me
and
watch
me
till
I
come
to
door
of
the
office
:
it
is
better
not
to
arouse
suspicion
and
we
can
see
anything
that
happens
.
"
But
Moncharmin
replied
.
"
No
,
Richard
,
no
!
You
walk
ahead
and
I
’
ll
walk
immediately
behind
you
!
I
won
’
t
leave
you
by
a
step
!
"
"
But
,
in
that
case
,
"
exclaimed
Richard
,
"
they
will
never
steal
our
twenty
-
thousand
francs
!
"
"
I
should
hope
not
,
indeed
!
"
declared
Moncharmin
.
"
Then
what
we
are
doing
is
absurd
!
"
"
We
are
doing
exactly
what
we
did
last
time
.
.
.
Last
time
,
I
joined
you
as
you
were
leaving
the
stage
and
followed
close
behind
you
down
this
passage
.
"
"
That
’
s
true
!
"
sighed
Richard
,
shaking
his
head
and
passively
obeying
Moncharmin
.
Two
minutes
later
,
the
joint
managers
locked
themselves
into
their
office
.
Moncharmin
himself
put
the
key
in
his
pocket
:
