He dropped with a sigh upon a silk ottoman close beside him.… A short, staccato, muffled report split the heavy silence…and a little round hole appeared in the woodwork of the book-shelf before which, an instant earlier, M. Max had been standing—in the woodwork of that shelf, which had been upon a level with his head.

Il se laissa choir avec un soupir sur un pouf couvert de soie tout près de lui... Un petit bruit saccadé et étouffé rompit le lourd silence... et un petit trou rond apparut dans la boiserie de l'étagère, à la hauteur où se trouvait la tête de Max un instant avant.
