Just his hands; not the worst in the world, though Ben knew they might be seeing more of Mr. Darrow in the days to come. This would not be his last visit to the Ministry, unfortunately, though now that he'd managed to get him in a better mood, Ben wasn't about to tell him that. The fact that his hands had touched the chest before the knife and his hands were unscathed was a good sign, which Ben explained to him. "I'd suggest keeping in touch with us and alerting us at the slightest inkling that you have that something's gone wrong." He said, jotting down the last notes in his file before putting down his quill.

He turned to face Mr. Darrow once more, and laced his fingers together before clearing his throat. "I believe that's all the questioning I have for today." He offered a sympathetic grimace. "However prepare yourself for the possibility of there being more questioning, Mr. Darrow." Ben rose to his feet, shaking the other man's hand before escorting him to the front door of the Auror Offices.
