Answer:
When Ellery says, "’I see we'll have to do it the hard way,’" it creates tension because it reveals how hard Ellery will have to work to try to solve the crime.
Explanation:
<em>Object Lessons</em> by Ellery Queen is a short story about a detective work that the author did for a school teacher when she lost <em>"seven one-dollar bills"</em> in her own classroom. The story deals with juvenile crimes committed by three young boys and their teacher's refusal to let them be given straight to the authorities without a second chance.
In the given excerpt, Ellery decided to do a voluntary body search among the school students to get back the lost money. Suspense is built when he stated <em>"I see we'll have to do it the hard way"</em>. This creates suspense in such a way that he will try to solve the crime in whatever means he can.
Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
