"But now?" asked M. Plantat.
M. Lecoq, at this question, seemed like a man just roused from sleep.
"I beg your pardon," said he. "I forgot myself. I've a bad habit of reflecting aloud. That's why I almost always insist on working alone. My uncertainty, hesitation, the vacillation of my suspicions, lose me the credit of being an astute detective—of being an agent for whom there's no such thing as a mystery."
Worthy M. Plantat gave the detective an indulgent smile.
"I don't usually open my mouth," pursued M. Lecoq, "until my mind is satisfied; then I speak in a peremptory tone, and say—this is thus, or this is so.

Valami kiárusításon találtam, száz forintért vesztegették, úgy voltam vele, hogy retro krimi, jó minőségű kiadásban, jöhet. Fogalmam nem volt, hogy egyrészt ennyire retro (1867-ben jelent meg először, két évtizeddel az első Sherlock Holmes-sztori előtt), má
To 1841 υπήξε χρονιά σταθμός. Τότε γράφτηκαν απ’ τον Πόε, οι Δολοφονίες της οδού Μοργκ και διευρύνθηκε ουσιαστικά ο τρόπος που ένας καλλιτέχνης μπορεί να ψυχαγωγήσει με ένα όχημα το οποίο έχει τη δυνατότητα να παρέχει περισσότερες διεξόδους για τον κοινωνικό σχολιασμό και προβληματισμού στο δημιουργ
