The following morning, Raskolnikov visits Porfiry Petrovich
at the police department, supposedly in order to turn in a formal request
for his pawned watch. As they converse, Raskolnikov starts to feel
again that Porfiry is trying to lead him into a trap. Eventually, he
breaks under the pressure and accuses Porfiry of playing psychological
games with him. At the height of tension between them, Nikolai,
a workman who is being held under suspicion for the murders, bursts
into the room and confesses to the murders. On the way to Katerina
Ivanovna’s memorial dinner for Marmeladov, Raskolnikov meets the
mysterious man who called him a murderer and learns that the man
actually knows very little about the case.
