Which line from the story foreshadows the trick the niece will play? (in the open window by H.H. Munro)

Well it has been a while since I have read this but... I do know that Vera provides detailed clues about the men who have gone hunting, and I remember there are others but I forgot.

I really hope this helps.

The line which most adequately signals the trick that the niece would play:

D). "Then you know practically nothing about my aunt?' pursued the self-possessed young lady."

In the context of the short story titled "The Open Window," the line "Then...young lady" signals the ploy which niece was about to play.
This line shows her cunningness when she aims to prevent Mr. Nuttel from knowing the truth.
This action shows that she at first wanted to make sure that Mr. Nuttel remains unaware so that she could proceed with her plan further.

Thus, option D is the correct answer.
