Wandering the streets he questions passing pedestrians. He enters a café called the Crystal Palace, and orders newspapers from the past week so he can read about the Pawnbroker. There he meets a police officer called Zamyotov. Raskolnikov starts to tease the officer about the crime and murders in general, claiming to know about both. Ge starts to ramble on to the officer and very nearly confesses to committing the crime against the old woman. His crazed way of speaking arouses the officer's suspicions, but soon dissuades the officer.
