This is an element which is outstanding in the story. We can see that the old man
trusted to the narrator because he-as we can find in the story-has a good security

Resolution of story:

the narrator kept hearing heartbeats (the old man’s or his, in his guilt) and

In the end, he gets rid of the eye by killing the old man but the main character can
