Answer
A
“That is my name. What do you want?”
B
Mr. Utterson stepped out and touched him . . .
C
"I see you are going in," returned the lawyer.

Explanation

Mr. Hyde’s words, “That is my name. What do you want?” indirectly characterize him through his speech. His abrupt, unfriendly response suggests that he is rude and hostile. The other choices describe Mr. Utterson’s actions or words rather than revealing Hyde’s character.
