John was standing at the window of the hotel room. He was looking absentmindedly at the street when, suddenly, he heard a horrible cry. Everyone in the street stopped — people were wondering where the cry was coming from. John glanced at the house opposite. He has been watching the house for some weeks and he was sure that something suspicious was going on there, but he never noticed anything obvious enough to report it. This he thought he could report something that pleased his superiors. Just after the cry he saw a man in the window just opposite his — the man was drawing the curtains hurriedly. John decided to investigate — he knew he found something.
