Adye
's
decision
seemed
suddenly
made
.
He
turned
towards
the
house
,
walking
slowly
with
his
hands
behind
him
.
Kemp
watched
him
--
puzzled
.
The
revolver
vanished
,
flashed
again
into
sight
,
vanished
again
,
and
became
evident
on
a
closer
scrutiny
as
a
little
dark
object
following
Adye
.
Then
things
happened
very
quickly
.
Adye
leapt
backwards
,
swung
around
,
clutched
at
this
little
object
,
missed
it
,
threw
up
his
hands
and
fell
forward
on
his
face
,
leaving
a
little
puff
of
blue
in
the
air
.
Kemp
did
not
hear
the
sound
of
the
shot
.
Adye
writhed
,
raised
himself
on
one
arm
,
fell
forward
,
and
lay
still
.
For
a
space
Kemp
remained
staring
at
the
quiet
carelessness
of
Adye
's
attitude
.
The
afternoon
was
very
hot
and
still
,
nothing
seemed
stirring
in
all
the
world
save
a
couple
of
yellow
butterflies
chasing
each
other
through
the
shrubbery
between
the
house
and
the
road
gate
.
Adye
lay
on
the
lawn
near
the
gate
.
The
blinds
of
all
the
villas
down
the
hill-road
were
drawn
,
but
in
one
little
green
summer-house
was
a
white
figure
,
apparently
an
old
man
asleep
.
Kemp
scrutinised
the
surroundings
of
the
house
for
a
glimpse
of
the
revolver
,
but
it
had
vanished
.
His
eyes
came
back
to
Adye
.
The
game
was
opening
well
.
Then
came
a
ringing
and
knocking
at
the
front
door
,
that
grew
at
last
tumultuous
,
but
pursuant
to
Kemp
's
instructions
the
servants
had
locked
themselves
into
their
rooms
.
This
was
followed
by
a
silence
.
Kemp
sat
listening
and
then
began
peering
cautiously
out
of
the
three
windows
,
one
after
another
.
He
went
to
the
staircase
head
and
stood
listening
uneasily
.
He
armed
himself
with
his
bedroom
poker
,
and
went
to
examine
the
interior
fastenings
of
the
ground-floor
windows
again
.
Everything
was
safe
and
quiet
.
He
returned
to
the
belvedere
.
Adye
lay
motionless
over
the
edge
of
the
gravel
just
as
he
had
fallen
.
Coming
along
the
road
by
the
villas
were
the
housemaid
and
two
policemen
.
Everything
was
deadly
still
.
The
three
people
seemed
very
slow
in
approaching
.
He
wondered
what
his
antagonist
was
doing
.
He
started
.
There
was
a
smash
from
below
.
He
hesitated
and
went
downstairs
again
.
Suddenly
the
house
resounded
with
heavy
blows
and
the
splintering
of
wood
.
He
heard
a
smash
and
the
destructive
clang
of
the
iron
fastenings
of
the
shutters
.
He
turned
the
key
and
opened
the
kitchen
door
.
As
he
did
so
,
the
shutters
,
split
and
splintering
,
came
flying
inward
.
He
stood
aghast
.
The
window
frame
,
save
for
one
crossbar
,
was
still
intact
,
but
only
little
teeth
of
glass
remained
in
the
frame
.
The
shutters
had
been
driven
in
with
an
axe
,
and
now
the
axe
was
descending
in
sweeping
blows
upon
the
window
frame
and
the
iron
bars
defending
it
.
Then
suddenly
it
leapt
aside
and
vanished
.
He
saw
the
revolver
lying
on
the
path
outside
,
and
then
the
little
weapon
sprang
into
the
air
.
He
dodged
back
.
The
revolver
cracked
just
too
late
,
and
a
splinter
from
the
edge
of
the
closing
door
flashed
over
his
head
.
He
slammed
and
locked
the
door
,
and
as
he
stood
outside
he
heard
Griffin
shouting
and
laughing
.
Then
the
blows
of
the
axe
with
its
splitting
and
smashing
consequences
,
were
resumed
.
Kemp
stood
in
the
passage
trying
to
think
.
In
a
moment
the
Invisible
Man
would
be
in
the
kitchen
.
This
door
would
not
keep
him
a
moment
,
and
then
--
A
ringing
came
at
the
front
door
again
.
It
would
be
the
policemen
.
He
ran
into
the
hall
,
put
up
the
chain
,
and
drew
the
bolts
.
He
made
the
girl
speak
before
he
dropped
the
chain
,
and
the
three
people
blundered
into
the
house
in
a
heap
,
and
Kemp
slammed
the
door
again
.
"
The
Invisible
Man
!
"
said
Kemp
.
"
He
has
a
revolver
,
with
two
shots
--
left
.
He
's
killed
Adye
.
Shot
him
anyhow
.
Did
n't
you
see
him
on
the
lawn
?
He
's
lying
there
.
"
"
Who
?
"
said
one
of
the
policemen
.
