“Well, let’s ask him⁠—” Antony stopped and looked at Bill comically⁠—“let’s ask him what he’s going to do with the key of the office.”

For a moment Bill did not understand.

“Key of the office?” he said vaguely. “You don’t mean⁠—Tony! What do you mean? Good God! do you mean that Cayley⁠—But what about Mark?”

“I don’t know where Mark is⁠—that’s another thing I want to know⁠—but I’m quite certain that he hasn’t got the key of the office with him. Because Cayley’s got it.”

“Are you sure?”

“Quite.”

Bill looked at him wonderingly.

“I say,” he said, almost pleadingly, “don’t tell me that you can see into people’s pockets and all that sort of thing⁠—as well.”
