a disguise, to pass the frontier — just those whom the order wished to prevent going. The strangers were sent away,Dame Moncler Vosges Norge Salg, but still had to gain permission to go.
Mountebanks,Maillot Lucas Pas Cher, gypsies, Tsiganes,Chaussures Nike Air Max TN Fusion, Zingaris, mingled with merchants from Persia, Turkey, India,Manchester United Pas Cher, Turkestan, China, filled the court and offices of the police station.
Everyone was in a hurry, for the means of transport would be much sought after among this crowd of banished people, and those who did not set about it soon ran a great risk of not being able to leave the town in the prescribed time, which would expose them to some brutal treatment from the governor’s agents.
Owing to the strength of his elbows Michael was able to cross the court. But to get into the office and up to the clerk’s little window was a much more difficult business. However, a word into an inspector’s ear and a few judiciously given roubles were powerful enough to gain him a passage. The man, after taking him into the waiting-room, went to call an upper clerk. Michael Strogoff would not be long in making everything right with the police and being free in his movements.
Whilst waiting, he looked about him, and what did he see? There, fallen, rather than seated, on a bench, was a girl, prey to a silent despair, although her face could scarcely be seen, the profile alone being visible against the wall. Michael Strogoff could not be mistaken. He instantly recognized the young Livonian.
Not knowing the governor’s orders, she had come to the police office to get her pass signed. They had refused to sign it. No doubt she was authorized to go to Irkutsk, but the order was peremptory — it annulled all previous au-thorizations, and the routes to Siberia were closed to her. Michael, delighted at having found her again, approached the girl.
She looked up for a moment and her face brightened on recognizing her traveling companion. She instinctively rose and, like a drowning man who clutches at a spar, she was about to ask his help.
At that moment the agent touched Michael on the shoulder,Chaussures Air Jordan 9 Retro Homme, “The head of police will see you,Woolrich Parka Dam,” he said.
“Good,” returned Michael. And without saying a word to her for whom he had been searching all day,Chaussures Nike Air Max Excellerate Homme, without reassuring her by even a gesture, which might compromise either her or himself, he followed the man.
The young Livonian,Dame Moncler Eulalia, seeing the only being to whom she could look for help disappear,PJS Dameklær Harraseeket Strøk Norge Salg, fell back again on her bench.
Three minutes had not passed before Michael Strogoff reappeared, accompanied by the agent. In his hand he held his podorojna, which threw open the roads to Siberia for him. He again approached the young Livonian, and holding out his hand: “Sister,” said he.
She understood. She rose as if some sudden inspiration prevented her from hesitating a moment.
“Sister,” repeated Michael Strogoff, “we are authorized to continue our journey to Irkutsk. Will you come with me?”
“I will follow you,Belstaff Racemaster Blouson Kurtki, brother,Belgique Pas Cher,” replied the girl,Canada Goose Lodge Down Hoody Jackor, putting her hand into that of Michael Strogoff. And together they left the police station.
