Nick stood on the platform, apparently in his own reverie and ignoring the hustle and bustle. As the express drew into the platform it became more noisy with the squeal of brakes and the hissing of steam. Nick took a pinch of snuff, but he was alert and watching. Olaf alighted a carriage, looking around. He seemed satisfied and stode off towards the exit. Nick was also on the move and with great speed and spunk overtook Olaf by leaping over a high gate. As Olaf turned a corner, Nick swung his fist at Olaf so forcefully that Olaf was dazed. Within seconds Olaf was in handcuffs and being forced into an unmarked van before being taken to the questioning centre in the windowless basement.
