"Hum! So much for the police-court," said Holmes thoughtfully, tossing aside the paper.

"哼！警察局和法庭所提供的情況也就這么多了，"福爾摩斯若有所思地說著，順手把報(bào)紙扔到一邊。

"The question for us now to solve

"我們現(xiàn)在要解決的問題是，

is the sequence of events leading from a rifled jewel-case at one end to the crop of a goose in Tottenham Court Road at the other.

把從被盜的首飾匣為起點(diǎn)到托特納姆法院路拾到的那只鵝的嗦囊為終點(diǎn)的一系列事件按順序理清楚。

You see, Watson, our little deductions have suddenly assumed a much more important and less innocent aspect.

你知道嗎，華生，我們的小小推論已經(jīng)很快地表現(xiàn)為嚴(yán)重性大為增加，而無罪的可能性大為減少這方面了。

Here is the stone; the stone came from the goose, and the goose came from Mr. Henry Baker,

這就是那顆寶石，那顆寶石來自那只鵝，那只鵝來自亨利·貝克先生，

the gentleman with the bad hat and all the other characteristics with which I have bored you.

關(guān)于這位先生的破帽子以及所有其它的特征的分析我已向你提供了。

So now we must set ourselves very seriously to finding this gentleman and ascertaining what part he has played in this little mystery.

因此現(xiàn)在我們要認(rèn)真地找到這位先生，并且弄清楚他在這小小的神秘事件中扮演的是什么樣的角色。

To do this, we must try the simplest means first, and these lie undoubtedly in an advertisement in all the evening papers.

要做到這一點(diǎn)，我們開始必須使用最簡單的方法，這方法無庸置疑地是在所有晚報(bào)上刊登一則啟事。

If this fail, I shall have recourse to other methods."

如果這種方法不成功，那么我將不得不借助于其它的方法了。"

"What will you say?"

"啟事說什么呢？"

"Give me a pencil and that slip of paper.

"給我一枝鉛筆和一張紙。

Now, then: 'Found at the corner of Goodge Street, a goose and a black felt hat.

好，下面就是我要說的：'茲于古治街拐角揀到鵝一只和黑氈帽一頂。

Mr. Henry Baker can have the same by applying at 6:30 this evening at 221B, Baker Street.' That is clear and concise."

亨利·貝克先生請于晚六點(diǎn)半到貝克街221號乙詢問，即可領(lǐng)回原物。'這樣寫既簡單又明了。"

"Very. But will he see it?"

"對。可是他會看到這個啟事嗎？"
