Island Of Doom: Hunchback Assignments 4 (The Hunchback Assignments) - Plot & Excerpts
He awoke to find Typhon sitting in the same spot, like a child who had been scolded by a teacher. He didn’t know if the monster ever really slept or even breathed like a human, and he never got close enough to check for a heartbeat. He did know that the creature didn’t bleed. When that woman had shot Typhon there were holes in his clothes but there was no blood. For all Lime knew, the bullets were sitting in the creature’s chest, rusting to bits. Lime ordered breakfast. He had already been to the Saint-Saulve church for the third time that week to look at their records, leaving Typhon on a bench near the town’s wall. There were no Héberts who had arrived in 1858. He was at a dead end. There were no other paths; there was nothing more he could think of. He would telegraph his master and receive his orders. Perhaps the great mind that was the Guild Master would have an answer. After breakfast Lime took one last walk, with Typhon a footstep behind. They certainly attracted attention, but the meek little townspeople just watched timidly.
