'He's waiting in a coach at the door，'replied Rose．
Mr Brown low hurried out of the room，down the stairs and into the coach without another word．In a minute he had returned with O liver． 'How well he looks！'he said． 'New clothe s，the same sweet face，but not so pale；the same eyes，but not so sad．'
They talked with great joy for some time．The n Mr Brown low sent for Mrs Bed win，the old housekeeper．She came in quietly and waited for her orders．

'We must find this man Monks，'said Mr Brown low ． 'Nancy will not betray the man who is special to her，but she will surely agree to tell us how or where to find Monks．Then we must find a way to force Monks to talk．We must be both cautious and clever．After all，we have no proof against him，and if we cannot make him talk，this mystery will never be solved．But we'll have to wait five days until Sunday before we can meet Nancy on London Bridge．Until the n，we can do nothing．'
11 南希的造访
在班布尔夫妇那次小小的业务洽谈之后的晚上，比尔·赛克斯先生一觉醒来，大声地问着是什么时候了。
他躺在一间脏乱狭小的屋子里。这已不是他去切特赛远征之前住的那间房子了，但仍旧是在伦敦原先的那个贫民区。屋里没有什么家什和用具，很明显，赛克斯先生遇上艰难的日子了。由于得了一场病，他非常瘦弱、苍白，身上裹着一件破旧的大衣，缩在床上。那条白色的狗趴在旁边的地上。
南希坐在窗户旁边，手里缝补着赛克斯的一件旧外衣。她也很消瘦，面无血色。听见赛克斯的喊声，她停下手里的活计，抬起头说：“刚过七点钟，比尔，你这会儿感觉怎么样了？”
“浑身没劲。你扶我起来，行吗？”
南希扶他从床上起来时，他张口就骂，嫌她笨手笨脚。一场大病也没能使他暴躁的脾气有所改变。
“你要是知道这些天我是怎么伺候你的，就不该这样对我恶语相加。”南希说。“这么多个晚上，我都一直看护着你。”她疲惫地坐在一张椅子上。
“站起来！”赛克斯吼叫着，“你是怎么了？”
可南希已经站不起身了。她的头向后仰去，撞在椅子上；她昏了过去。
赛克斯又是一阵咒骂，可南
