उत्तर

Bepin Babu hesitated to visit Mr. Dinesh Mukerji because he was afraid of the ruthless sarcasm he would have to face. He felt that if the whole story about Ranchi was false, then Mr. Mukerji would think that he had gone insane.

Being constantly troubled by the incident at the bookshop and having no other means for verifying the claims of Primal Ghose, Bepin Babu finally decided to ask Mr. Mukerji. However, he decided to phone him because that way his embarrassment wouldn’t be visible to the latter.
