You laughed a lot and Alice’s friend could see this. Then they made you send him away. He probably thinks that Alice no longer likes him. He can’t speak to her because the dog walks around the garden at night.
I think that you are right, Mr. Holmes, cried Miss Hunter. We have to help the poor girl.
That evening we reached the Copper Beeches at seven o’clock. Miss Hunter was waiting for us.
Have you done it? Asked Holmes.
Yes, answered Miss Hunter. Mrs. Toller is in the underground room and she can’t open the door. Let’s hurry-Mr. Toller will be back soon.
We went upstairs.
This is the room, said Miss Hunter. The door was shut.
I hope that we are not too late, said Holmes. I can’t hear anyone in there. Help me, Watson.
Together we pushed against the door and soon it was open. There was nobody in the room. There was a window in the roof, and it was open.
Her father has taken her away, said Holmes.
But how? Asked Miss Hunter.
Holmes climbed on a table and looked through the window.
There are some wooden steps resting againt the roof, he said.
That’s strange, said Miss Hunter. They were not there when Mr. Rucastle left.
Listen! said Holmes. Someone is coming up the stairs. Perhaps it is Rucastle. You have your gun, Watson. Get ready. We don’t know if he is dangerous.
Mr. Rucastle arrived at the door. He had a heavy stick in his hand. Sherlock Holmes ran towards him.
