Bab 49: Formulate

Lucien could feel everyone's eyes were on him, especially Victor's. A cold sweat dribbled down his back, but he did not let it show in his expression. He looked at Old Fe and studied his face closely. There wasn't a drop of hesitation in his eyes; it was as if Old Fe believed he had got the answer to this problem.
