Answer 1

Fowler was thrilled because what he saw looked like  a real thriller scene. This kind of an action and scene he was expecting while he was on his way to meet Ausable

He had his first authentic thrill when he saw a stranger in the room with a small automatic pistol in his hand

Explanation:

• The "Midnight Visitor" by Robert Arthur is a story about a detective defying the stereotype, as we are familiar from novels and films. In more respects than one, Ausable differed from most secret agents. In a rundown French hotel, he had a little room in a moldy corridor.
• Fowler was a writer wanted to meet Ausable, a renowned secret agent for the plot of next book.  Fowler needed to see how Ausable dealt/tackled adverse situations. When he saw Ausable, he was disappointed because he didn't look like a secret agent. Fowler thought Ausable was a clever detective agent, but when he met him in person he was deceived by his looks
• However, as he walked into the room, he got the first real excitement of the day. Max (another secret agent and the intruder to Ausable's room) was pointing his gun towards them in the Ausable's room as they opened the door, and switched on the light
• Max threatens Ausable with a gun  to handover some important documents. Ausable, being quite normal, plays upon a trick on Max. He uses his deftness and quick wits and makes a story of a "non-existent balcony" & "policemen". The fear of police makes Max jump out of the window and crash at the ground.
• Seeing this,  Fowler understands how deft a detective Ausable was
