CHAPTER XXIII. IN DRURY LANE "And his too," said Kemp. The Invisible Man stood up sharply. "What do you mean to say?" Kemp’s face grew a trifle hard. He was about to speak and checked himself. "I suppose, after all," he said with a sudden change of manner, "the thing had to be done. You were in a fix. But still–" "Of course I was in a fix–an infernal fix. And he made me wild too–hunting me about the house, fooling about with his revolver, locking and unlocking doors. He was simply exasperating. You don’t blame me, do you? You don’t blame me?" "I never blame anyone," said Kemp. "It’s quite out of fashion. What did you do next?" "I was hungry. Downstairs I found a loaf and some rank cheese–more than sufficient to satisfy my hunger. I took some brandy and water, and then went up past my impromptu bag–he was lying quite still–to the room containing the old clothes. This looked out upon the street, two lace curtains brown with dirt guarding the window. I went and peered out through their interstices.

I should judge the hunchback had been alone in the house for some time. He was a curious person. Everything that could possibly be of service to me I collected in the clothes storeroom, and then I made a deliberate selection. I found a handbag I thought a suitable possession, and some powder, rouge, and sticking-plaster. "I had thought of painting and powdering my face and all that there was to show of me, in order to render myself visible, but the disadvantage of this lay in the fact that I should require turpentine and other appliances and a considerable amount of time before I could vanish again. Finally I chose a mask of the better type, slightly grotesque but not more so than many human beings, dark glasses, greyish whiskers, and a wig. I could find no underclothing, but that I could buy subsequently, and for the time I swathed myself in calico dominoes and 213
