Desmond started to walk back slowly the way he had come. Presently, his eyes caught the gleam of a light from above a front door. When he drew level with it, he saw that a gas-jet was burning in the fanlight over the entrance to a neat little two-story house which stood by itself in a diminutive garden.

Now absent-mindedness is just a bit too awful in a bad man.英文原著 · 《The Man Who Was Thursday》
