Isn
’
t
that
rather
odd
in
itself
?
"
"
Not
in
Mr
.
Caxton
’
s
work
,
Miss
Boardman
.
"
"
Well
Even
though
the
cab
’
s
phone
had
no
vision
circuit
Jill
felt
Osbert
Kilgallen
draw
himself
up
.
"
I
’
m
afraid
,
Miss
Boardman
,
that
I
will
have
to
interpret
my
employer
’
s
instructions
myself
.
Uh
-
if
you
don
’
t
mind
my
saying
so
,
there
is
always
some
Some
babe
trying
to
get
a
hammer
lock
on
him
,
Jill
interpreted
angrily
-
and
this
Osbert
character
thinks
I
’
m
the
current
one
.
It
put
out
of
her
mind
the
half
-
formed
thought
of
asking
Kilgallen
for
help
;
she
switched
off
as
quickly
as
possible
.
But
where
could
she
go
?
The
obvious
solution
popped
into
her
mind
.
If
Ben
was
missing
-
and
the
authorities
had
a
hand
in
it
-
the
last
place
they
would
be
likely
to
look
for
Valentine
Smith
would
be
Ben
’
s
apartment
.
Unless
,
she
corrected
,
they
connected
her
with
Ben
,
which
she
did
not
think
that
they
did
.
They
could
dig
a
bite
to
eat
out
of
Ben
’
s
buttery
-
she
wouldn
’
t
risk
ordering
anything
from
the
basement
;
they
might
know
he
was
away
.
And
she
could
borrow
some
of
Ben
’
s
clothes
for
her
idiot
child
.
The
last
point
settled
it
;
she
set
the
combination
for
Ben
’
s
apartment
house
.
The
cab
picked
out
the
new
lane
and
dropped
into
it
.
Once
outside
the
door
to
Ben
’
s
flat
Jill
put
her
face
to
the
hush
box
by
the
door
and
said
emphatically
,
"
Karthago
delenda
est
!
"
Nothing
happened
.
Oh
damn
him
!
she
said
frantically
to
herself
;
he
’
s
changed
the
combo
.
She
stood
there
for
a
moment
,
knees
weak
,
and
kept
her
face
away
from
Smith
.
Then
she
again
spoke
into
the
hush
box
.
It
was
a
Raytheon
lock
,
the
same
voice
circuit
actuated
the
door
or
announced
callers
.
She
announced
herself
on
the
forlorn
chance
that
Ben
might
have
returned
.
"
Ben
,
this
is
Jill
.
"
