He first lied to God, then countered God's question with a question of his own: "Am I my brother's keeper?"
Genesis 4:9
"And the LORD said unto Cain, 'Where is Abel thy brother?' And he said, 'I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?'"

Simply put, he was saying, " I don't know, am I responsible for my brother?" Of course, he was lying.
