apartment. He also knew how police think. So, he did not hide the letter where he knew they would look
for it.
"Do you remember how Germont laughed when I said the mystery was difficult for him to work out
because it was so simple?"
Dupin filled his pipe with tobacco and lit it. "Well, the more I thought about it, the more I realized the
police could not find the letter because D'Arcy had not hidden it at all.
"So I went to visit D'Arcy in his apartment. I took a pair of dark green eyeglasses with me. I explained
to him that I was having trouble with my eyes and needed to wear the dark glasses at all times. He
believed me. The glasses permitted me to look around the apartment while I seemed only to be talking to
him.
"I paid special attention to a large desk where there were a lot of papers and books. However, I saw
nothing suspicious there. After a few minutes, however, I noticed a small shelf over the fireplace. A few
postcards and a letter were lying on the shelf. The letter looked very old and dirty.
"As soon as I saw this letter, I decided it must be the one I was looking for. It must be, even though it was completely different from the one Germont had described.
"This letter had a large green stamp on it. The address was written in small letters in blue ink. I
memorized every detail of the letter while I talked to D'Arcy. Then when he was not looking, I dropped
one of my gloves on the floor under my chair.
"The next morning, I stopped at his apartment to look for my glove. While we were talking, we heard
people shouting in the street. D'Arcy went to the window and looked out. Quickly, I stepped to the shelf
and put the letter in my pocket. Then I replaced it with a letter that looked exactly like it, which I had
taken with me. I had made it the night before.
"The trouble in the street was caused by a man who had almost been run over by a horse and carriage.He was not hurt. And soon the crowd of people went away. When it was over, D'Arcy came away from
the window. I said goodbye and left.
"The man who almost had an accident was one of my servants(雇员). I had paid him to create the
incident."
Dupin stopped talking to light his pipe. I did not understand. "But, Dupin," I said, "why did you go to
the trouble of replacing the letter? Why not just take it and leave"
Dupin smiled. "D'Arcy is a dangerous man," he said. "And he has many loyal servants. If I had taken
the letter, I might never have left his apartment alive."
