Chapter 37 Chapter VII

Dull walked over in a panic, and said to Marlowe, "Why do you have a stinky face?" Huber Marlowe picked up his head from his contemplation. "Am I making a bad face? I didn't mean to." "Something must have happened yesterday--except the dinner party, I mean," said Doerr with sudden certainty. "There's trouble, Marlowe, isn't there?" "Trouble? No, it's actually the opposite. I was about to knock on the door with all my strength, only to find that the door had been opened a crack. The leader immediately agreed to let us go to the steel factory, which seemed too easy. gone."

"Do you suspect this is a trap?" "Oh, for Seldon's sake, don't be so pessimistic, okay?"

"I hope so too," Marlowe said blankly. "I have no objection to your giving me moral support. Unfortunately, it is the leader who decides the way of the talks, not me. The car that is driving now seems to be sent by the leader." The special car is ready to pick us up to the steelworks. Have you packed your things?"

"It's all brought together."
