"ManfromtheFuture-DonaldWollheim" - читать интересную книгу автора (Wollheim Donald A)

unhooked one of his flashlights and pointed it at the, source of annoyance. It
was nicely acted and I was tickled he had such presence of mind. The dwarf
pressed the switch and an ordinary beam of white light, narrowed down to almost
a pencil beam shone on the speaker. You couldn't see it very well in the
afternoon light and it would have been more effective if there had been a green
or red filter in it, but it seemed to have done the trick.
The heckler shut up and our Man from the Future finished his little talk.
The rest of the convention went off without any trouble. The dwarf left shortly
after he had finished and didn't want to stay to see the movies. After the film
we all left the hall for a buffet supper downstairs in the building and we
didn't have occasion to go back.
That's all I know about the affair. We had a good time, everybody thought that
the Man from the Future had put on a good act and had been very clever in using
that ray trick to shut up the heckler. That is everyone thought so but the
police when the caretaker discovered the body after the week-end lying in the
hall crusted with green and blue spots. The police are still looking for that
dwarf and that trick flashlight.
