The last page of the manuscript received by Poe appears to have been a photocopy. Rampo seems to know why, but there are still more mysteries surrounding the death of the author.
To leave your escape as an afterthought to 
the murder is practically self-destruction.
.ترك عمليّة هروبك كفكرة تلوية لجريمة القتل بمثابة تدمير ذاتيّ
Es ist fast selbstzerstörerisch,
die Flucht bei einem Mord aufzuschieben.
Retrasar tu huida para matarlo
prácticamente te condena.
Retrasar tu huida para matarlo
prácticamente te condena.
C’est du suicide, de retarder sa fuite
pour aller tuer quelqu’un.
Rimandare la tua fuga a dopo l'omicidio
significa praticamente autodistruggersi.
Adiar sua fuga para cometer o assassinato
é praticamente autodestruição.
Отсрочить свой побег ради
убийства — это безумие.
