大侦探波罗探案集
第八季 第二集
古墓 之谜
先生 说实在的 Honestly,sir,
见到著名的赫尔克里·波罗太让人兴奋了 it's such a kick to meet the famous Hercule Poirot.
当然 亚瑟叔叔告诉我很多关于你的事 Uncle Arthur's told me masses about you,of course.
- 你曾经在巴格达办过案子吗? - 没有 - Have you been working on a case in Baghdad? - Non.
其实还挺有意思的 It's quite interesting actually
波罗收到了他的老相好发来的电报 Poirot got a telegram from an old flame of his
说她现在很烦 saying she was in a spot of bother
他可以来巴格达见她 and could he meet her in Baghdad.
是个漂亮的女人 据说她是个俄罗斯女伯爵 Good looking woman. Said she was a Russian countess.
维拉·露斯考夫女伯爵 Countess Vera Rossakoff.
真的吗? Really?
黑斯廷斯 真是谢谢你向科尔曼先生多嘴 Thank you,Hastings,for explaining that to Monsieur Coleman.
我们在特勒亚里也遇到了让人兴奋的事 We've had a bit of excitement at Tell Yarimjah,too.
就在你离开的时候 亚瑟叔叔 While you've been away,Uncle Arthur.
我只离开了一天 I've only been away a day.
今早上在考古点发现了一个死了的阿拉伯人 Well,this morning we had a dead Arab at the site.
- 很明显是被掐死的 - 天啊! - Been strangled,apparently. - Good Lord!
那是希拉·梅特兰! I say,that's Sheila Maitland!
她父亲是巴格达警局的警长 Her father's a superintendent in the Baghdad police.
他肯定去挖掘现场了 He must be up at the dig.
他不同意希拉独自来这 He doesn't approve of Sheila coming out here alone.
干什么呢 希拉 What ho,Sheila.
科尔曼 把那个机器开远一点 Will you take that machine away,Coleman.
想比比速度吗? Fancy a race?
你可能没注意到 你在坐车而我在骑马 It may have escaped your notice that you're in a car and I'm on a horse.
哈 希拉总是很有笑点 Ha. Always good for a laugh,old Sheila.
谢谢了 黑斯廷斯 Thank you,Hastings.
嘿 波罗 I say,Poirot,
我提到那个女伯爵很不得体吗? was that tactless of me,mentioning the countess?
你有不得体过吗 黑斯廷斯? Could you ever be tactless,Hastings?
有她的消息吗? Any news of her yet?
没有 很奇怪吧 嗯? Non. It's odd though,isn't it?
我是说 她订好了旅馆 给你发了电报 I mean,she books into the hotel,sends you this telegram,
在你到达的时候 她反而出去旅行了 and then when you arrive she's gone off on some trip.
是啊 Oui.
你好 Hello.
- 你好 我是埃里克·利德勒 - 哦! - Hello. Eric Leidner. - Ah!
你肯定是赫尔克里·波罗 You must be Hercule Poirot,
黑斯廷斯上校著名的朋友 Captain Hastings' famous friend.
很荣幸见到这么出色的考古学家 It is an honour to meet an archaeologist so distinguished,
利德勒博士 Dr Leidner.
我也很荣幸见到你 The honour is entirely mutamutual.
请小心 那是波罗先生的行李 Do be careful,that's Mr Poirot's luggage.
早上好 警长 Good afternoon,Superintendant. I say.
啊 你在这儿啊 利德勒博士 Ah,there you are,Dr Leidner.
我们幸运的发现... We've had a bit of luck with...
你应该不认识波罗先生吧 I don't think you know Mr Poirot.
波罗先生 这是巴格达警局的 Mr Poirot,this is Superintendant Maitland
梅特兰警长 of the Baghdad Police.
- 你好? - 警长 - How do you do? - Superintendant.
好的 Right.
是这样 我们的记录上 Now,look here,this fellow who got himself strangled
有那个被掐死的家伙 is on our records.
名字是伊扎特·巴奇 Name of Izzat Baqui.
是个小骗子 贩卖赃物 Small time crook,dealing in stolen goods.
窃取文物 Stealing antiquities.
贩卖毒品 组织卖淫 Selling drugs. Prostitution.
所以我想审问你们所有的阿拉伯工人 So I want to question all your Arab workmen.
我还是相信 I still favour the idea
他是在向他们其中一人买偷来的文物 he was buying stolen antiquities from one of them.
好的 我全力配合 Very well,whatever you think necessary.
嗯 Hmm.
我很抱歉 I'm sorry for that.
这是你住的地方 This is where you'll be staying.
我只希望你能 I only hope you'll be happy
在我们简陋的住宿条件中住得愉快 in our rather primitive accommodation.
不 不 一点也不简陋 利德勒博士 No no,not at all,Dr Leidner.
我的要求很简单的 I am a man of the taste most simple.
太糟糕了 那个被杀的家伙 Nasty business,this fellow being killed.
是的 自从我们发现了金制器皿 Yes. We've had one or two suspicious characters
就有一两个可疑的人 hanging around Tell Yarimjah
在特勒亚里附近晃荡 since we started finding the gold artifacts.
呃...你在找我吗 安妮? Um... You're looking for me,Annie?
哦 是的 利德勒博士 Oh,Dr Leidner,yes.
我刚刚在带我们的贵客参观他的房间 I was just showing our distinguished guest his room.
波罗先生 这是约翰逊小姐 我的左膀右臂 Mr Poirot,Miss Johnson,my right hand,you might say.
哦 利德勒博士 Oh,Dr Leidner.
很高兴见到你 约翰逊女士 I'm delighted to meet you,Mademoiselle Johnson.
你好吗? How do you do?
呃 不知你是否可以过来看一下 Um,I wondered if you could come and cast your eye over the beads
我今早发现的珠子 I found this morning.
当然可以 晚餐在八点 波罗先生 Sure. Dinner's at eight,Mr Poirot.
蚊帐在哪 黑斯廷斯? Where is the mosquito net,Hastings?
哦 这里没有蚊子 Oh,we don't bother with them here.
附近几公里都没水源 There's no body of water for miles
所以偶尔才会有几只路过的蚊子 so we only get the odd mosquito passing through,as it were.
被叮上几口也没有大碍 Couple of little bites won't do you any harm.
就算只被叮了几口 我也极度敏感 黑斯廷斯 I'm extremely sensitive even to a couple of little bites,Hastings.
当然 对于我们在这里发现的东西 Of course,everyone's getting frightfully excited
每个人都很兴奋 about the stuff that we're finding here.
哦 比尔 我正要来找你 Ah,Bill,I was just coming to look for you.
拉维涅神父 这是赫尔克里·波罗先生 Father Lavigny,this is Mr Hecule Poirot,
他和我们一起住 he's come to stay with us.
很高兴见到你 波罗先生 Pleased to meet you,Monsieur Poirot.
谢谢 Mon Pere.
我听说了很多你的故事 I have heard much about your exploits.
根据日志 According to the log,
昨天梅卡尔多先生发现了一枚圆筒印章 there was a cylinder seal found by Mr Mercado yesterday
他让你把它放到古董那一类 which he gave to you to bring to the antika.
是的 That's right,yes.
你知道它在哪吗? Do you know where it is?
我把它放在那边的架子上 I put it on that shelf there.
- 它现在不在那了 - 呃 - Well,it's not there now. - Well
大家去屋顶吧 Everybody on the roof,please.
只要来了名人 Old Leidner always insists upon a group photograph
老利德勒就要坚持拍一张集体照 whenever we have a distinguished visitor.
请后排的人稍微往左移一点 If the back row could move slightly to the... to the left.
画面不太对称 You're not quite symmetrical.
黑斯廷斯上校 如果空间不够的话 Captain Hastings,move those querns
把那些磨移开吧 if there's not enough room.
利德勒女士 什么是磨? Madam Leidner,what is a quern?
石磨 A millstone.
看来他们考古时发现的石磨是最多的了 They seem to find more of those than almost anything else.
梅卡尔多先生在哪? Where's Mr Mercado?
约瑟夫不喜欢拍照 Joseph doesn't like having his photograph taken.
- 凯里先生也不在这 - 他还在挖掘现场 - And Mr Carey's not here. - He's still out at the dig.
现在 请放松 Now,relax,please.
然后看向相机 And look towards the camera.
不要动 Quite still.
波罗先生 你可能会发现我们今晚比较沉闷 I'm afraid you'll find us a gloomy crowd tonight,Monsieur Poirot.
我们对于那个被杀的可怜的阿拉伯人感到惋惜 We're very distressed about the poor Arab who was killed.
是的 这很不幸 利德勒女士 Oui. It is a circumstance most unfortunate,Madame Leidner.
他是你的工人吗? Was he one of your workmen?
很难说 我们有很多的临时工 It's hard to say,we have so many casual workers.
哦 上帝啊 Oh God.
没事的 约瑟夫 It's alright,Joseph.
怎么了 梅卡尔多先生? What's wrong,Mr Mercado?
- 没事了 - 抱歉 - It's alright. - Sorry.
我昨晚在读我的指导手册 I was reading in my guide book last night
为什么伊拉克的这部分 why this bit of Iraq
以前被称为美索不达米亚 used to be called Mesopotamia.
很显然这是希腊语的"两河之间" Apparently it's Greek for "between two rivers".
我的意思是 你知道河马吧 I mean,you know hippopotamuses
呃 "hippo"意思是河 well,"hippo" means river
"potamus"意思是马 and "potamus" means horse,
河马 river-horse,you see.
不 呃... 还有另一种解释 对吧? No,er...it's the other way around,isn't it?
"Hippo"意思是马 "Hippo" means horse
"potamus"意思是河 and "potamus" means river,
还有另一种可能是"两马之间" otherwise it would be "between two horses".
所以 "meso"很明显意思是"之间" So,as "meso" apparently means "between",
美索不达米亚意思是"两河之间" Mesopotamia means "between two rivers".
呃... 这两条河一条是底格里斯河 Er...the two rivers being the Tigris
呃 还有另外一条 and,um,that other one.
- 幼发拉底河 - 对! 两河之间 - The Euphrates. - Yes! Between two rivers.
我想你现在应该知道 I should've thought you would have known by now
晚餐是八点开始的 凯里先生 that dinner is at eight o'clock,Mr Carey.
抱歉 利德勒夫人 I'm sorry,Mrs Leidner.
我认为这里的工作才是最要紧的 I thought that the work was what was important here.
必须是在不妨碍别人的前提下 Not at the expense of everyone else's convenience.
恐怕 We finished our soup,
- 我们喝完汤了 - 没关系 - I'm afraid. - It's quite alright.
我必须绘完那些墙 I had to finish plotting those walls.
...是的 ...Yes.
是的 当然 Yes,of course.
今天又是个好天气 是吧? It's been lovely weather again today,hasn't it?
当然 太阳出来了 Out of the sun,of course.
哦! 鱼! Ah! The fish.
从你的河里捕上来的是吧 黑斯廷斯上校? From one of those very rivers of yours,eh Captain Hastings?
那不是鲟鱼吗? Isn't that a sturgeon?
这里的人叫它hybiarria They call it a hybiarria out here.
很美味 It's absolutely delicious.
阿拉伯人不理解鱼 Arabs do not understand fish.
拉维涅神父是个奇怪的家伙 不是吗? That Father Lavigny is a strange cove,isn't he?
嗯 他是有些奇怪 Mm. There is certainly something odd about him.
但奇怪的是 嗯? Mais c'est curieux,hm?
他是个世界知名的哲学家和考古学家 He is a philosopher,an archaeologist,world renowned,
而且从他的书中 and from his books,
我觉得他拥有很多激情 很有口才 I had the impression of a man of great enthusiasm,of eloquence,
但他看上去跟这两个词一点都不搭边 and yet he seems not to have to rub together even the two words.
黑斯廷斯 可能明天下午 Hastings,perhaps tomorrow afternoon
我会坐邮局的车回巴格达 I shall return to Baghdad with the post car.
波罗 听着 我已经结婚好几年了 Poirot,look,I've been married a few years now,
我不介意告诉你 and I don't mind telling you
我对女性还是有一些了解的 I've learned a thing or two about the fair sex.
你知道露斯考夫女伯爵不会回来了 Countess Rossakoff isn't coming back,you know.
可能吧 黑斯廷斯 That is as may be,Hastings.
但是这和我的决定无关 But it has less to do with my decision
和决定有关的是 than the fact that in Baghdad,
巴格达的房间有电 the rooms there are lit by electricity
而且沙子也没那么容易进我的内衣 and the sand,it is not so prevalent as to get inside the undervest.
我不知道你怎么在这里生活了两周 I do not know how you've borne it for two weeks.
呃 家庭 你知道的 Well,family,you know.
我告诉小比尔 我会做个像样的访问 I told young Bill I'd make it a decent visit.
你是个勇敢的男人 You are a man of great courage.
- 晚安 黑斯廷斯 - 晚安 波罗 好眠 - Good night,Hastings. - Good night Poirot. Sleep well.
不! No!
护士! 护士! Nurse! Nurse!
护士... Nurse...
我又看到那张脸了 I saw the face again.
有人在我隔壁的房间 And there's someone in the room next to mine,
我听到抓墙的声音了! I heard scratching on the wall!
没事的 不要怕 It's alright,don't be afraid.
- 去找埃里克! - 好的 - Get Eric! - Yes.
- 把他找来! - 好的 - Get him! - Yes.
利德勒博士 利德勒博士! Dr Leidner,Dr Leidner!
怎么了? What is it?
我又看到那张脸了 在窗户那 I saw the face again,at the window.
我听见他了 我听见他在抓墙 And I heard him,I heard him scratching on the wall.
怎么了? What's the matter?
利德勒夫人看到有张脸在窗户那 Mrs Leidner saw a face at her window
而且有人在古董间里走动 and someone was moving about in the antika room.
好的 Right.
护士 Nurse.
没事了 It's alright.
深呼吸 对了 Just breathe deeply. That's right.
你在干吗 拉维涅神父? What are you doing,Father Lavigny?
我看到了光 我觉得这里有人 I saw a light,I thought someone was in here.
我只是在检查没人碰过这里的东西 I'm just checking to see nothing's been touched.
- 你怎么看? - 呃 看上去就是蜡 - What do you think? - Well,it certainly looks like wax.
就在这 在把手上 Right here,by the handle.
嗯 我拍照的时候发现了 Mm. I noticed it when I took his photograph.
会不会是蜡烛油? Could it be candle grease?
六千年前的? 我不这么认为 From 6,000 years ago? I don't think so.
昨晚这里不是有些骚乱吗? Wasn't there some disturbance in here last night?
不过没蜡烛 拉维涅神父用的是手电筒 No candles,though. Father Lavigny had a flashlight.
他在这干吗? What was he doing in here?
他听到声响了 He heard a noise.
他最近的翻译工作怎么样了? How's his latest translation?
不要对拉维涅神父有偏见 理查德 Don't be unfair to Father Lavigny,Richard.
我们只发现了四块碑和印章 We've only found four tablets and seals as yet
有一个不翼而飞了 and one of those has disappeared.
我很抱歉 先生 I apologise,sir.
但每个人都说他是个著名的碑铭研究家 But everybody says he's a famous epigraphist,
我只是很期待读到他的第一手研究 I just look forward to seeing his first bit of work.
利德勒博士 我突然想到 It occurs to me,Dr Leidner,
你的工作和我的工作有很多相似之处 that your work and the work that I do have much in common.
真的吗? Really?
我想做的就是挖掘 All I've ever wanted to do is dig in the earth,
寻找时光埋葬的秘密 find out the secrets that time has buried there.
就是这样 挖掘过去 Exactement. The digging into the past.
去其糟粕以得到线索 The sifting of mass of dross draws for the clues
而且你打交道的那些大人物 and the people most important that you deal with
都已驾鹤西去 are those who are dead.
我打赌你没那么多文书工作要做 Bet you don't have as much paperwork.
哦 Ah.
这个世界快被纸淹没了 For the world,it is drowning in paper.
人们会觉得我疯了 People will be thinking I'm insane.
天啊 不 Good heavens,no.
晚上的声响 窗边的脸 Noises in the night,faces at the window.
不 这里有事发生 No,there's something going on here.
如果没人想把这个考察团吓退 I shouldn't be surprised
那才是怪事 if somebody weren't trying to frighten the expedition off.
你真的这么觉得? 你... Do you really think so? You...
那是谁? 他在干什么? Who's that? What's he doing?
- 黑斯廷斯上校! - 没事的 - Captain Hastings! - It's alright.
你看到我的状况了? You see the state I'm in?
我很羞愧 You know,I'm very ashamed.
没有一个工人听得懂我说的话 None of the men on the work can understand me.
我在试着和那个人讲阿拉伯语 I was trying my Arabic on that man.
他是个城市居民 我想知道我有没有进步 He's a townsman and I wanted to see if I got on any better,
但是没有 but no.
利德勒博士说我的阿拉伯语太纯正了 Dr Leidner says my Arabic is too pure.
他可以走了 下一个 He can go. Next one.
- 走 - 名字 - Go. - Name.
可怜的小乞丐 Poor little beggar.
大约... 六岁吧 About...six years old,I'd say.
只有一只小壶和一串珠链 Sent into the next world with nothing but a little pot
陪他到另一个世界去 and a couple of bead necklaces.
可能我们需要的只是这些 约翰逊女士 Perhaps that is all any of us need,Mademoiselle Johnson.
我知道这很难相信 波罗先生 I know it's hard to believe,Mr Poirot,
但是我不能告诉你 我们曾经有过怎样的欢乐 but I can't tell you what fun we used to have,
利德勒博士 理查德·凯里和我 Dr Leidner,Richard Carey and I,
我们在这工作的第一年 the first years we worked out here.
我们是那么快乐的一群人 We were such a happy party.
但是... But...
但是什么 约翰逊女士? But what,Mademoiselle Johnson?
呃... Oh...
坦白说 自从利德勒博士结婚后 To be frank,since Dr Leidner got married
当然 她是个很有魅力的女人 of course,she's a very charming woman
我很理解为什么利德勒博士迷上她了 and I can quite understand why Dr Leidner fell for her
但是如果她来这个偏僻的地方会紧张到 but if she's so nervous about coming to out-of-the-way places
需要有个护士来照顾她 that she needs a nurse to hold her hand,
她应该待在美国 she should've stayed in America.
现在又来了个名侦探 And now the famous detective.
哦 不 不 不 约翰逊女士 你误会了 Oh,no no no,Mademoiselle Johnson,you are mistaken,
我向你保证 我的来访绝对是个巧合 I assure you that my visit here,it is purely coincidental.
哼 Huh.
她来了 There she is now.
我说! 这很壮观吧? I say! Isn't that splendid?
它几乎没受任何损伤 And it's almost undamaged. Look.
我发现他们的陶器比埃及人的粗糙 I find their pottery crude compared to the Egyptians.
哦 不 梅卡尔多先生 应该说不精细 Oh no,Mr Mercado,unsophisticated,perhaps
哦 我的天啊! Oh my God!
军士! 军士! Sergeant! Sergeant!
你还好吗 黑斯廷斯上校? Are you alright,Captain Hastings?
嗯 我没事 Yes,I'm OK.
这是怎么了 梅卡尔多先生? What was all that about,Mr Mercado?
你为什么问我? 很明显这男人疯了 Why do you ask me? The man is mad,obviously.
他说他要给他的兄弟报仇 He said he was going to avenge his brother.
什么兄弟? 我可不知道什么兄弟 What brother? I do not know any brother.
我到底来了一个什么样的地方啊? What kind of a place have I come to?
这些年 我一直活在被杀的恐惧里 For years I've lived in fear of being murdered.
你不是认真的吧 You can't mean it.
我向你保证 黑斯廷斯上校 是真的 I assure you,Captain Hastings,that I do.
但是被谁谋杀呢 利德勒夫人? But murdered by whom,Madame Leidner?
当我还是个20岁的姑娘时 When I was a girl of 20
我和我们州部门里的一个年轻人结婚了 I married a young man in our State Department
他叫弗雷德里克·博斯纳 Frederick Bosner.
我一点都不了解他 I hardly knew him,I suppose.
那是一桩愚蠢的战时婚姻 It was one of those foolish wartime marriages.
我们才结婚了几天他就走了 We'd only been married a few days and he went away.
我再也没见过他 I never saw him again.
弗雷德里克在战争中被杀了 Frederick was killed in the war
但是他是在美国被杀的 but he was killed in America.
别人说他是间谍 把他枪决了 He was shot as a spy.
很...可怕 It was...terrible.
太可怕了 Terrible.
然后 三个月之后 And then,about three months later,
令人吃惊的事情发生了 an amazing thing happened.
"我在等你 "I am waiting for you.
如果你和别人结婚 我会杀了你" If you ever marry another man I will kill you."
署名"弗雷德里克" Signed "Frederick".
这上面说是你死去的前夫写的信 But this purports to come from your husband who is dead.
没错 Exactly.
我以为我是疯了或是在做梦 I thought I was mad or dreaming.
最终我去找了我的父亲 Eventually I went to my father.
他也在国务院工作 He worked in the State Department too,
他告诉了我真相 he admitted the truth
我前夫并没有被枪决 my husband hadn't been shot at all,
他逃走了 he'd escaped.
国务院把消息封锁了 The State Department had covered it all up anyway
他也一直在保护我 and he was trying to protect me.
但弗雷德里克却在逃亡几周后 But then Frederick had been killed in a train wreck
因列车事故而丧生 a few weeks after his escape
所以我父亲觉得没什么好再隐瞒的了 and he saw no reason to burden me with the knowledge.
我不该告诉你这些的 I shouldn't have told you this,
我只觉得还能跟你说说话 I just thought you were someone I could talk to,
一个只会在这待几天的陌生人 a comparative stranger just here for a few days.
你说现在你收到了更多的恐吓信? And you say now that you have received more of these letters?
几年前 我快订婚的时候 Some years ago when I go engaged to be married
恐吓信就一窝蜂的来了 a whole flurry of letters started.
我受不了了 I couldn't bear it.
我取消了订婚 I broke off the engagement.
好像我每次和男人走得近一点 It seemed that every time I became even friendly with another man
我都会收到警告 I was warned off.
接下去几年没什么动静 And then there was silence for years.
我碰到了埃里克 我们订婚了 I met Eric and we got engaged.
啥事儿也没有 Nothing.
我们结婚了 We married.
啥事儿也没有 Nothing.
但是三周前 And then three weeks ago
我收到了这个 I got this.
"我已经来了" "I have arrived."
但如果不是你前夫 还能是谁呢? But if this isn't your former husband,who is it?
我不知道 I don't know.
弗雷德里克有个弟弟叫威廉 Frederick had a much younger brother named William.
他是个不太稳定的小孩 He was an unstable child
但他喜欢弗雷德里克 but he adored Frederick.
可能他觉得我和其他人好 Perhaps he feels that any involvement I have with another man
多少有点背叛了他哥哥吧 is somehow betraying his brother's memory.
这个威廉·博斯纳 And this William Bosner,
你觉得他可能因为这个而复仇你? you think that for this he might still be seeking the vengeance?
我收到信的那个晚上 The same night I received that
我第一次 I saw the face at that window.
不! No!
在窗口看到了一张脸 For the first time,
一张死人的脸 a dead face.
波罗 在今早利德勒夫人告诉我们那些事之后 I really don't understand why you're leaving,Poirot.
我不懂你为什么要离开 After all Mrs Leidner told us this morning,
那是个陷入困境的女子 I mean to say,there's a damsel in distress
如果你愿意的话 if you like.
我们今年都很沮丧 We're all in bally distress this year.
你都不知道到底有什么区别 You wouldn't believe what a difference there is.
那是凯里 There's Carey.
去年他还蛮高兴的 Even he was quite cheerful last year.
不管信不信 Believe it or not.
他和利德勒先生共事了好几年 He's worked with Leidner for years,of course.
安妮·约翰逊也一样 So has Annie Johnson.
她很不爽利德勒太太 She blames Mrs Leidner,
觉得她的出现毁了一切 thinks her presence spoils everything.
你是这么想的吗 科尔曼先生? Is that your opinion,Monsieur Coleman?
不 她只是在嫉妒 No. She's just jealous.
她以前总围着利德勒先生转 She used to run round after old Leidner,
帮他织袜子 泡茶什么的 darning his socks and making him tea in the old days.
我想她觉得和利德勒小姐在一起挺压抑的 I suppose she feels a bit inhibited with Mrs Leidner around.
啊 哦 Ah. Whoops.
这个真不错 That was a good one.
我们又不急着投胎 We don't have to get there in five minutes,you know.
这还不是最好玩的呢 你老啦 亚瑟叔叔 That's half the fun. You're getting old,Uncle Arthur.
说真的 科尔曼先生 Speaking for myself,Monsieur Coleman,
距我第一次坐这种车 I have aged ten years
已经有十年了 since I entered this automobile.
我怎么生活不关你的事 It's none of your damn business how I behave.
当然关我的事 Of course it's my business.
听我说 理查德·凯里 Now,you listen to me,Mr Richard Carey
哦 你在这啊 露易丝 Oh,there you are,Louise.
我以为约翰逊小姐会过来呢 I thought Miss Johnson might be up here.
她去挖掘现场了 She's just going out to the dig.
好吧 我去找她回来 Oh good. I'll try and catch her.
你怎么样 理查德? How you doing there,Richard?
我来帮你 I'll give you a hand.
- 我现在去寄信 - 谢谢 - I'll post those letters now. - Thank you.
科尔曼先生 Tell me,Monsieur Coleman,
你认识这个字迹么? do you recognise this handwriting?
这是可爱的露易丝小姐的字迹 It's the lovely Louise's.
利德勒女士? Madame Leidner?
是的 怎么了? Yes. Why?
哦 没什么 Oh,nothing.
只是让我想起了 It just reminded me
我最近看过的一个人的字迹 of the handwriting that I saw recently of someone else.
天啊 Good Lord.
她为什么要给自己写恐吓信? Why would she write threatening letters to herself?
就凭字迹相像 黑斯廷斯 I think that would be an assumption too great to make,Hastings,
就下这样的结论太草率了 on the grounds of the similarity of the handwritings.
但如果是真的话 那就不是什么无稽之谈了 But if it was so,it would not be an occurrence unheard.
如果你问我的话 我觉得这挺傻的 Pretty ruddy silly,if you ask me.
如果有人问你的话 黑斯廷斯 Well,if only people would ask you,Hastings,
他们的确不会那么傻 they would refrain from the ruddy silliness.
- 晚安 黑斯廷斯 - 晚安 波罗 - Goodnight,Hastings. - Goodnight,Poirot.
先生 Monsieur.
请给我房间的钥匙 The key to my room,if you please.
好的 波罗先生 Certainly,Monsieur Poirot.
露斯考夫女伯爵回来了么? The Countess Rossakoff,she is returned yet to the hotel?
还没 波罗先生 Not yet,Monsieur Poirot.
哦 谢谢 Oh. Merci.
你好 理查德 Hello,Richard.
你好 希拉 Hello,Sheila.
你离家真远啊 You're a long way from home.
如果穆罕默德不到山里来... If Mohammed won't go to the mountain...
你怎么从来不来巴格达? Why do you never come into Baghdad?
巴格达没什么特别让我感兴趣的 There's nothing in Baghdad that interests me particularly.
是么? Really?
- 我确定我们可以 - 希拉 - I'm sure we could - Sheila.
别再说了 Don't say another word.
我都可以当你爸爸了 I am very nearly old enough to be your father.
我没说啥啊 I wasn't saying anything.
我不知道你在说什么 I don't know what you're talking about.
你肯定热昏头了 It must be the sun or something,seems to have gone to your head.
阿布杜拉 Abdullah.
拉维涅神父 Father Lavigny,
你知道我侄子在哪里么? do you happen to know where my nephew is?
我希望他可以再带我进次巴格达 I was hoping he could run me into Baghdad again.
我想他已经走了 He's gone already,I think.
今天周五了 要付工人工钱了 It's Friday and the workmen are paid today.
他要去银行取钱 He has to collect the money from the bank.
哦 好吧 Oh blast.
那里现在干净点了 It's a bit clearer up there now.
露易丝近来一直在抱怨 Louise has been complaining lately
没有足够的地方可以逛逛 there's not enough room to walk about.
我去告诉她这个好消息 I'm just going to tell her the good news.
比尔·科尔曼通常几点从巴格达回来? What time does Bill Coleman usually get back from Baghdad?
哦 我不知道 这个不一定 Oh,I do not know. It is variable.
哦 天哪! 没有 Oh my God! Louise.
噢 没有! Oh Louise!
她死了 She's dead.
天哪 Good God.
没有暗室 没有衣橱 No alcoves,no wardrobes,
也没有能藏人的窗帘 and no curtains behind which anyone could hide.
不 尸体在地毯上 No. The body was on this rug.
利德勒说他发现尸体的时候曾把她的头抱起来 Leidner said he lifted her head when he found her
但并没有移过尸体的位置 but he didn't actually change her position.
一切看起来都那么明显 嗯? It all seems so straightforward,huh?
利德勒女士 躺在床上快睡着了 Madame Leidner,she is lying on the bed half asleep.
有人开了门 她看了看 站了起来 Someone opens the door,she looks up,rises to her feet and...
然后被杀死了 ..and was struck down.
没错 Oui.
血呢 Blood.
很少 可能是内部出血 Very little. The blood will have escaped internally into the brain.
凶器呢? 没有凶器的迹象么? And the weapon? Was there no sign of that?
- 没有 - 是个很重的东西 - No. - Something heavy.
没有尖角的东西 Without any corners or edges.
可能是被一个有力的男人降服了 Welded,perhaps,by the strong arm of a man.
- 是被制服了 - 谢谢 黑斯廷斯 - Wielded. - Thank you,Hastings.
一切看起来都那么明显 It all seems so straightforward.
除了一点 Except for one thing
如果进入屋子的是个陌生人 if the person who entered the room was a stranger
那为什么利德勒女士不马上大叫呢? why then did Madame Leidner not cry out for help immediately?
约翰逊小姐说她好像听到了叫声 Miss Johnson said she thought she heard a cry.
她当时在起居室里 就是边上的第二间 She was in the living room,that's next door one to this.
可能不是陌生人 Perhaps it wasn't a stranger.
没错 黑斯廷斯 Yes,Hastings,
她看到那人可能很惊讶 she may have been surprised to see the person
但她并不害怕 but she was not afraid.
我怀疑是不是真能听到叫声 I doubt if anyone would hear a cry anyway.
窗子是关上的 The window was closed,
为了不让苍蝇进来 下午一直关着 it was always closed in the afternoon to keep out the flies.
警长 你怎么想的 Tell me,Superintendant,what is your opinion
那不是血么? is that not blood?
看来像是 It looks like it.
我会查明的 I'll find out.
好的 Good.
这是个谜 嗯? It is a puzzle,eh?
墙很坚固 The walls,they are the most solid.
窗户是关着的 外面还有栅栏 The windows,they are closed and barred.
所以只有通过门才能进入房间 So the only way into this room is through that door
要到达门只能穿过院子 and the only way to that door is through the courtyard
要进院子只能通过长廊 and the only way into the courtyard is through the archway
而在长廊外面 and beyond the archway
有五个人 there are five persons
那五个人的口供一致 and they all tell the same story
今天没有陌生人进入过庭院 that no stranger entered the courtyard today.
我相信他们 And I do not think that they are lying.
利德勒女士的房间在这里 The room of Madame Leidner,it is there.
你在这里工作 And you were working here.
其实只要你抬头 So the door to her room,
她房间的门 it is in your vision all of the time,
就一直在你的视线之内? when you look up from your work?
没错 没人能进去 That's right. Nobody could have gone in there.
你一直在这里? And you were here all of the time?
除了我上过几次屋顶 Except when I went up on the roof for a few minutes
见到了利德勒博士 to see Dr Leidner
但阿布杜拉在这里 but Abdullah was here then.
啊 对对 阿布杜拉 Ah yes,yes,Abdullah.
你也没见别人进过庭院? And you saw no other person enter this courtyard?
在利德勒女士进屋以后 没有 After Mrs Leidner had gone into her room,no.
黑斯廷斯是从门口进来的 Captain Hastings came in through the gate,
等等 当中确实有几分钟 wait,there were a couple of minutes.
我上了屋顶之后下来 After I had been on the roof and I came down
阿布杜拉不在这里 Abdullah was not here.
他去警卫帐篷见他的阿拉伯朋友去了 He'd crept off to see his Arab friends in the guard tent.
那么阿布杜拉 And Abdullah,
大概离开了多久呢? how long had he been absent do you think?
不超过三四分钟 Not more than three or four minutes.
拜托 玛丽 Come on,Marie.
她的感情一向强烈 She feels things too deeply.
这太吓人了 It's so terrible.
我很喜欢露易丝 I was so fond of Louise.
梅卡尔多夫人 Madame Mercado,
请告诉我在她死亡的这段时间 could you please tell me what you were doing
您在做什么 at the time of her death.
我在洗头 I was washing my hair.
这太吓人了 我当时很忙很开心 It seems so awful,I was quite happy and busy.
你并没有离开屋子? So,you did not leave this room?
直到我出去然后听说了发生的事 Not until I came out and heard what had happened.
太吓人了 It was awful.
你很惊讶吗? Did it surprise you?
你什么意思? What do you mean?
哦 不 她有没有向你透露过什么 Oh no,it's just that she might have confided to you something.
哦 没有 露易丝从没和我说过什么 No. No,dear Louise never told me anything.
没有说过什么确定的事 Anything definite,that is.
就说窗户那儿有脸之类的 Of course,there were the faces at windows and so forth.
你还有什么线索 So there's nothing that you could think of
能提供我们的么? that would help us in any way?
没了 No.
没有了 No,there isn't.
梅卡尔多先生 Monsieur Mercado,
你能告诉我当时你在做什么吗? could you tell me what you were doing at that time?
我? I?
恩... Um...
你在实验室 约瑟夫 You were in your laboratory,Joseph.
哦 对的 Yes,I was.
我的日常工作 My usual tasks.
你什么时候去的那里? And at what time did you go there?
是12:50 At ten minutes to one.
没错 That's right.
- 你有没有进入过庭院? - 没有! - Did you come out into the courtyard at all? - No!
太吓人了 It's horrible.
我 我 我不能 I,I,I can't.
太吓人了 It's so horrible.
我们不能放弃 约瑟夫 We mustn't give way,Joseph.
好吧 肯定不是从这里进去的 Well,no way in from here obviously.
窗子是关着的 The window was shut anyway.
你觉得梅卡尔多为什么这么不安? Why do you think Mercado was so upset?
他就是个酒鬼 He's a rum cove,I must say.
有可能就如他妻子所说 黑斯廷斯 It is probably as his wife says,Hastings,
他被前一天工人的袭击 he is still shaken by the attack on him the other day
吓得不轻 by the workman.
利德勒博士 Tell me,Dr Leidner,
你对妻子的爱是你生活的重心 your love for your wife was your ruling passion.
是么? That is true,is it not?
没错 Yes.
那我必须问您点事情 Then I must demand from you the whole truth.
我保证 波罗 我知无不言 言无不尽 I assure you,Mr Poirot,I've kept nothing back.
不不不 No,no,no.
比如 你还没有告诉我 For example,you have not told to me
为什么你邀请丽瑟莲护士 why you invited to join the expedition
来到考古小队 Nurse Leatheran.
我已经解释过了 I've explained that
我妻子很紧张 很害怕 my wife's nervousness,her fears.
不不不 医生 No,no,no,doctor.
你的妻子身处险境 没错 Your wife,she is in danger,yes.
她受到了死亡威胁 没错 She is threatened with death,yes.
但是你没有送她去警署 也没找私家侦探 And you send not for the police,not even for a private detective
反而去找了护士 but for a nurse.
我觉得... I thought...
我... ..I...
博士 一切都很明了 You see,doctor,it all rings,
除了一点 except for that one thing.
为什么是护士? Why a nurse?
好吧 有个解释 Well,there is an answer,
其实 也只有这一个解释 in fact,there can only be one answer
就是你并不相信你妻子身处险境 that you did not really believe that your wife,she was in danger.
天哪 God help me.
我没有 I didn't.
博士 你有没有怀疑过 Doctor,did you suspect that
这些恐吓信是你妻子自己写的? your wife wrote those letters herself?
我觉得对过去无法释怀 I thought that maybe worrying and brooding over the past
可能在她心里留下了阴影 might have possibly affected her mind.
我觉得她可能是无意识的 I thought she might have somehow written those letters to herself
给自己写了这些信 without being conscious of having done so.
这是有可能的 对吧? That is possible,isn't it?
据我看 有三种可能 There are,as I see it,three possibilities.
- 三种? - 恩 - Three? - Oui.
假设一 也是最简单的 Solution number one: and the simplest
威廉·博斯纳 利德勒女士前夫 William Bosner,the young,unstable brother
那个不稳定的弟弟 of the first husband of Madame Leidner
还在伺机报复 still seeks the vengeance.
首先他威胁她 然后再进行实施 First he threatens her and then he carries out his threats.
但如果这个假设成立的话 But if we accept this solution
那他是怎么潜入和离开 then we have the problem of how he entered and departed
而又不被发现的呢 without being observed.
第二个呢? And the second?
第二个假设 Solution number two
因为她自己的原因 that for reasons of her own,
利德勒女士 Madame Leidner writes to herself
自己给自己写恐吓信 those letters that are most threatening.
我觉得你更倾向于这种观点 I thought that was the idea you favoured.
但如果这是真的 But if this was true,
那么那些信就和谋杀毫无关系 then the letters have nothing to do with the murder.
接下来是第三种假设 But now we come to solution number three.
在我看来 这种情况最有意思 And to my mind,the most interesting.
我假设这些信都是真的 I suggest the letters,they are genuine.
都是由威廉·博斯纳 That they are written by William Bosner,
利德勒夫人的小叔子所写 the young brother-in-law of Madame Leidner
而他恰好就是考古队中的一员 and that actually he is one of the staff of the expedition.
失陪 Excuse me.
我是奉迦太基的"白色圣父团"的命令 I joined the expedition only about a month ago,
白色圣父团:非洲阿尔及利亚一带的圣母传教团
在一个月前才加入探险队的 from the order of the Pere Blancs of Carthage.
那么在你来之前 "圣父大人" And before your arrival here,mon Pere,
您是否已经与利德勒夫人认识呢? did you at any time make the acquaintance with Madame Leidner?
没有 No.
来这儿之前我从未见过这位夫人 I'd never seen the lady until I met her here.
前几天 黑斯廷斯上校看到 The other day,Captain Hastings saw
您和一个在外面的男子说话 you talk to a man outside,
很显然这男子 and yet previously this very same man
正打算在窗户那里偷窥 had been seen trying to peer in at one of the windows.
他似乎是有意在那儿溜达的 It looked as if he was hanging around the place deliberately.
当时我也是这么想的 That's what I thought.
我问他他在干什么并叫他走开 I asked him what he was doing and told him to go away.
很好 Bon.
拉维涅神父没有问题 他是个很有名的人 Father Lavigny is out of the question,he's a well known man.
不管怎么说 他加入探险队才一个月 Anyway,he only joined the expedition last month.
利德勒博士邀请他来巴格达的电报 I happened to take the telegram from Dr Leidner
就是我发的 asking him to join into Baghdad and sent it myself
伯德博士当时病了 Dr Byrd had been taken ill,
需要回波士顿 had to go back to Boston.
不过您忽略了一个关键点 警长 But you do not appreciate a point of importance,Superintendant.
如果是威廉·博斯纳做的这些 If it is William Bosner who has done this thing,
那他这些年都干嘛去了? where has he been all these years?
他一定是换了名字 He must have taken a different name,
还找了份工作 he must have built up for himself a career.
露斯考夫女伯爵来了吗? The Countess Rossakoff?
恐怕还没有 波罗先生 I'm afraid not Monsieur Poirot.
晚安 Good night.
我不知道原来利德勒夫人结过婚 I didn't even know Mrs Leidner had been married before.
哦 是的 嫁了美国人 Oh yes,American.
开战后就分开了 Went to the bad during the war.
我倒是好奇这次挖掘还会发生什么事 I just wonder what's going to happen to the expedition now.
- 这就像是利德勒的演出 - 抱歉打断下 - It's very much Leidner's show - Sorry to interrupt.
你们有谁见到约翰逊小姐了吗? Have either of you seen Miss Johnson?
她没来吃晚餐 也不在房里 She wasn't at dinner,she's not in her room either.
你不会认为她是卷款私逃了吧? You don't think she's made off with the family silver do you?
当然不是 我只是.. No,of course not. I just...
..你知道的 出了谋杀案这档子事 ..well you know,with a murderer about.
出什么事了? What's all this?
不要一个人躲在这儿哭啊 You mustn't sit here crying,all by yourself.
不要啊 约翰逊小姐 不要 Don't,Miss Johnson,don't.
深呼吸一下 Take a hold on yourself.
什么事让您这么难过 约翰逊小姐? What's upset you,Miss Johnson?
就是 这太可怕了 It's just,it's all so awful.
现在别再这么想了 Now,you mustn't start thinking about it again.
事情发生了就是发生了 没办法改变 What's happened has happened and can't be mended.
烦恼也没有用了 It's no use fretting,you know.
对 你说得对 护士小姐 No,you're right,nurse.
我犯了个大错误 I'm making a fool of myself.
我突然一下什么都想起来了 It all came over me suddenly.
是的 是的 我明白 Yes. Yes,I know.
现在您需要好好睡一觉 A good night's sleep is what you need.
好的 Yes.
谢谢您 护士小姐 Thank you,nurse.
您真是位心地善良 富有爱心的女士 You're a nice,kind,sensible woman.
我很少犯这样的错误的 It's not often I make such a fool of myself.
她从来就不是个什么好东西 She was never a nice woman.
还给我 Give that to me.
有女伯爵的消息吗 波罗? Any sign of the Countess yet,Poirot?
没有 没有 No,no.
跟你说实话吧 黑斯廷斯 And to tell you the truth,Hastings,
我开始担心她的安危了 I begin to fear for her safety.
先是电报 First there was the telegram
说是她迫切需要帮助 stressing her need of help most urgently,
然后我到旅馆她却离开了 then her absence from the hotel at my arrival
而现在又一直没她的任何消息 and now the continuing lack of any sort of communication from her.
是啊 我懂你的意思 Yes,I see what you mean.
你好 梅特兰小姐 Bonjour Mademoiselle Maitland.
你好 尊敬的比利时侦探 Bonjour,distinguished Belgian 'tec.
你瞧 黑斯廷斯 You see Hastings,
人们开始记得我不是法国人了 people begin to remember that I am not French.
很高兴你能来 女士 It is good of you to come,ma soeur.
关于约翰逊小姐的这事儿 It is most interesting and important
真的是非常有趣又十分重要 this news of Mademoiselle Johnson.
请坐吧 Asseyez-vous,s'il vous plait.
小姐 Mademoiselle.
一定是她杀了利德勒夫人 She must have murdered Mrs Leidner.
不然她为什么要烧那张纸呢? Why else would she burn that paper?
那上面的字迹和匿名信上的完全一致 The writing was exactly like the rest of the anonymous letters.
是的 是的 丽瑟莲护士 Yes,yes,Nurse Leatheran,
但做事要有条理和方法 是不? but order and method,eh?
首先请您先告诉我一些事 There is first a great deal that you have to tell me.
在特勒亚里时我没机会问您 Now,I could not ask you at Tell Yarimjah,
但利德勒博士十分爱慕自己妻子 but the good Doctor Leidner,he worshipped his wife.
他确定所有人都喜欢他的妻子 And he is sure that everybody else felt exactly the same towards her.
但在我看来 这不合常理 But in my opinion,that would not be human nature.
不 不 不 我们有必要来谈谈利德勒夫人 No,no,no. It is necessary for us to discuss Madam Leidner
是怎么说来着? with,how do you say?
揭开她的神秘面纱 嗯? the gloves removed,eh?
所以 So
在探险队里谁不喜欢利德勒夫人? who was there on the expedition who did not like Madam Leidner?
哦... Oh...
嗯 这只是我个人的看法 - 当然 ..well,it's only my opinion. - Naturellement.
嗯... Well...
在我看来 小梅卡尔多夫人很恨她 ..in my opinion,little Mrs Mercado really hated her.
啊 那么 .. Ah. And,er...
..梅卡尔多先生呢? ..Monsieur Mercado?
他对她要和蔼得多 Well,he was a bit soft on her if anything.
利德勒夫人与生俱来就对人很有兴趣 Mrs Leidner had a nice,kind way of being interested in people.
我想 她对梅卡尔多先生很有兴趣 It rather went to Mr Mercado's head,I fancy.
梅卡尔多太太对此一定甚为光火 Mrs Mercado wouldn't have been too pleased about that.
我曾见到她目露凶光的盯着利德勒夫人 I've seen her look at Mrs Leidner as though she'd like to kill her.
哦 Oh.
我不是那意思... I didn't mean to say...
..我是说 她 ..I mean,she
不 不 不 No,no,no.
我明白的 I understand.
那么凯里先生呢? What about Monsieur Carey?
他对她很冷淡 Well,he was always very stiff with her.
她对他也是 And her with him.
也许他只是像约翰逊小姐一样嫉妒 Perhaps he was jealous like Miss Johnson,
他也是她丈夫的老朋友 him being an old friend of her husband's too.
干嘛呢 希拉? What-o,Sheila?
瞧 我买了两张网球俱乐部的舞会门票 Look here,I've bought two tickets for the tennis club dance.
那得等到下个月底呐 That's not until the end of next month.
我知道 我就是想赶在别人前面先办妥 I know. I wanted to get in before anyone else.
你愿意跟我一起去吗? Will you come?
噢 好吧 Oh,alright.
当然 我很乐意去 Yes,I'd love to.
你对那小伙子印象如何 黑斯廷斯? What is your opinion of the younger man,Hastings?
比如 威廉·科尔曼? William Coleman,for instance?
我得说 淡定 波罗 那可是我外甥 I say,steady on,Poirot,he's my nephew.
不 他是你被领养的外甥 黑斯廷斯 No,he's your nephew by adoption,Hastings.
是啊 但还是一样的 Yes,but all the same.
他被你姐姐一家收养的时候多大? How old was he when he was adopted by your sister and your husband?
哦 额 八九岁吧 Oh,er,eight or nine.
他的亲生父母战后就死了 His parents died shortly after the war.
他们是哈利·科尔曼的远房表亲 They were some sort of distant cousins of Harry Coleman.
哪儿的表亲 黑斯廷斯? And where was that,Hastings?
在美国 In America,actually.
比尔总带着美式口音... Bill had the most peculiar American accent when...
..我说... ..I say...
..不 ..no.
你清楚我们必须考虑每种可能性 黑斯廷斯 You know well we must consider every possibility,Hastings.
老天 Good Lord.
案子处理得怎么样了? How're you getting along with our local mystery?
小姐 有关我们的受害人 I've learned a great deal,Mademoiselle,
我了解了许多东西 about our victim.
而往往受害人就是解开谜团的钥匙 And very often the victim,it is the clue to the mystery.
你真聪明啊 波罗先生 That's rather clever of you,Mr Poirot.
谢谢 小姐 Merci,Mademoiselle.
要说哪个女人该被杀 It's certainly true that if ever a woman deserved to be murdered,
那定然是利德勒夫人 Mrs Leidner was that woman.
- 梅特兰小姐! - 恐怕 丽瑟莲护士 - Miss Maitland! - Nurse Leatheran,I'm afraid,
被她骗了 其他人也是一样 was quite taken in by her,as many other people were.
希拉跟你说了些什么呀 波罗先生? What's Sheila telling you,Mr Poirot?
你听听就算了 Take it with a pinch of salt.
她和露易丝·利德勒不对盘 She and Louise Leidner didn't exactly hit it off.
我们不对盘是因为露易丝知道我把她看穿了 We didn't hit it off because Louise knew that I saw through her.
事实上 我倒也不介意我亲手干掉她 In fact,I wouldn't have much objected to putting her away myself.
在利德勒夫人遇害那段时间 小姐 Then for the time of death of Madam Leidner,Mademoiselle,
希望您有很好的不在场证明 I hope you have a good alibi.
不在场证明? 我当时正在俱乐部打网球 Alibi? I was playing tennis at the club.
随便问个人都行 You can ask anybody.
我一直告诫你不要对死者不敬 I was always taught you don't speak ill of the dead.
哦 少来了! 事实胜于雄辩 Oh,that's stupid! The truth's always the truth.
露易丝·利德勒就是难种喜欢兴风作浪 Louise Leidner was the sort of woman who wanted to break things up
来获得乐趣的女人 这让她觉得很有能力 just for fun,for the sense of power.
她就是那种巴不得能对每一个男人 And she was the kind of woman who had to get a hold
呼来唤去的女人 of every male creature within reach.
你跟他们说了理查德·凯里的事么? Have you told them about Richard Carey?
凯里先生? About Mr Carey?
我有提到 他们不太合得来 Well,I've mentioned that they didn't hit it off very well.
不太合得来? 你这傻瓜! Didn't hit it off very well? You idiot!
他丢了魂似的爱着她 He's head over heels in love with her.
黑斯廷斯 梅卡尔多先生 Tell me,Hastings,Monsieur Mercado,
是左撇子还是右撇子? is he right handed or left handed?
唔 我想是右撇子吧 是的 Um,right handed,I think. Yes.
啊 你好 梅卡尔多先生 Ah,bonjour,Monsieur Mercado.
早上好 没多少人一大早来这儿找我 Good morning. Not many people visit me out here.
您挖的真深 先生 You dig too deep,monsieur,
太难下脚了 it is very difficult on the legs,you understand.
这些人的身体一定很好 These people must have been jolly fit.
挖得越深 越是有宝 The lower you get,the more interesting it becomes.
跟我来 先生们 Follow me,gentlemen.
有趣的是 One interesting thing
在这个土层发现的陶器 is that the pottery found above this level,
有显著的不同 it shows a marked difference.
这儿 我给你们看看 Here,I will show you.
如果你看这个 If you look at this piece
啊! 什么东西蛰了我 Ugh! Something stung me.
也许是蝎子? 快看看! A scorpion,perhaps? Vite!
- 粪便 瞧 - 我就知道有什么东西 - Merde,voila. - I knew I felt something.
不过不是蝎子 But it is not a scorpion though
不然伤口已经肿起来了 or it would be already swollen.
但小心总不为过 不是吗 梅卡尔多先生? But one cannot be too careful,eh,Monsieur Mercado?
刚才挺利索的 是吧 黑斯廷斯? That was neat,eh,Hastings?
刚才是怎么回事儿 波罗? What was that,Poirot?
是你干的? Did you do that?
当然 我就是那下手快的带刺小昆虫 瞧 Oui. I was the stinging insect and very neatly I did it too. Regarde.
连你都没看到 不是吗 黑斯廷斯? You did not see me,eh,Hastings?
可为什么呢? But what for?
我是想看看他的前臂 黑斯廷斯 I wished to observe his forearm,Hastings.
左前臂 The left one.
你没注意到吗? Did you not notice anything?
是的 我注意到了 Well,yes,I did,as a matter of fact.
- 皮肤上有许多痕迹 - 没错 - A lot of marks on the skin. - Oui.
我怀疑过但我需要确认 I suspected but I had to be sure.
梅卡尔多先生 他有毒瘾 黑斯廷斯 Monsieur Mercado,he is addicted to drugs,Hastings.
我懂了 I see.
那 接下来我们做什么呢? So,where does that lead us?
我暂时还不知道 For the moment I cannot say.
但是事实 黑斯廷斯 事实 But facts,Hastings,facts,
是铺平我们前行之路的鹅卵石 those are the cobbles that make up the road along which we travel.
波罗想验证下利德勒夫人遇害时 Poirot wants to see if Miss Johnson
约翰逊小姐是否真的能听到 could really have heard Mrs Leidner call out
她的叫声 when she was murdered,you see.
所以 你到利德勒夫人的房间 So,if you could go in Mrs Leidner's room
去喊两声 and just give a little cry,
我在起居室这边看能不能听到您的叫声 I'll go in the living room and see if I hear anything.
- 好的 - 哦 声音不要太大 - Alright. - Oh,not a big scream or anything
不是歇斯底里的那种 I mean,not madly terrified,
就是不小心撞了一下的那种 just a little cry as if you stubbed your tow or something.
我明白了 Yes,I see.
你好 凯里先生 Bonjour,Monsieur Carey.
准备好了就开始吧 Ready when you are.
我已经喊过了 No,I've done it.
哦 我什么也没听见 Oh. I didn't hear anything.
也许您可以试着更大声一点 Perhaps you should try it again a bit louder.
恐怕我帮不上您什么忙 I'm hardly the right person to help you
利德勒夫人与我不太合得来 Mrs Leidner and I didn't get on particularly well.
我想我是反感于她对利德勒的影响 I suppose I was a bit resentful of her influence over Leidner.
我们彼此很客气 但并不亲近 We were polite to each other but not intimate.
解释得真不错 凯里先生 Explained most admirably,Monsieur Carey.
不过这故事还有其它说法 But there are stories going about
如果听到这个故事... and one listens to these stories and perhaps
- 什么故事? - 就是我们常听到的那种 - What stories? - The usual sort of story.
您和利德勒夫人的故事 About you and Madame Leidner.
这些人的思想真是龌蹉 What foul minds people have.
确实 他们的鼻子像狗一样灵 哈? Vraiment. They're dogs,huh?
不管这不痛快埋藏得有多深 However deep one buries an unpleasantness,
狗狗们总是能将其刨根现世 a dog,he will always root it out again.
而我 我随时准备相信真相 As for myself,I'm always ready to be convinced of the truth.
你? You?
我怀疑别人告诉你时 你能否知道真相 I doubt if you'd know the truth if you heard it.
不妨一试嘛 Try me and see.
好吧 Alright.
我恨露易丝·利德勒 I hated Louise Leidner.
这就是真相 That's the truth for you.
这就是真相 That's the truth.
我们试了好多遍 一次比一次叫得大声 We tried it several times,getting louder and louder.
甚至丽瑟莲护士惊声尖叫了起来 Even when Nurse Leatheran screamed quite loudly
在起居室里还是什么都听不见 you couldn't hear it in the living room.
这些该死的泥砖墙真够厚的 These mud brick walls are damned thick,you know.
很好 黑斯廷斯 很好 Good,Hastings,good.
唯一能听到声音的办法就是把窗户打开 The only way we heard it was when we tried it with the window open.
- 朝着利德勒夫人房间的窗户? - 是的 - The window to the room of Madame Leidner? - Yes.
非常有趣 黑斯廷斯 Well,that is very interesting,Hastings,
而且发人深省 even illuminating.
梅卡尔多太太 约翰逊小姐 你好 Madame Mercado,Mademoiselle Johnson,bonjour.
日安 事情调查的如何了 波罗先生? Good day. How are you getting on,Mr Poirot?
哦 这案子进展缓慢啊 小姐 Oh,it marches slowly,this affair,Mademoiselle.
不过今早我和梅特兰警长去了巴格达 But this morning I was in Baghdad with Superintendent Maitland.
他女儿十分迷人 不是吗? His daughter is a young lady most charming,n'est-ce pas?
希拉·梅特兰? Sheila Maitland?
哦 她挺不错 Oh,she's alright.
当然 作为这里唯一的年轻尤物 Of course,she's the only young creature in the place
她被那些 so she gets a bit spoilt
争相献殷勤的小伙子们给宠坏了 by all the young men dancing attendance on her.
倒不是说她没有鼓励他们 Not that she doesn't encourage them.
昨天下午她还来过这儿 She was out here yesterday afternoon
找一个小伙子或是其他什么人 looking around for one or other of them.
你这是在做什么? What's that you're doing?
这个? 哦 我们终于又发现了一枚柱形印章 This? Oh,we found another cylinder seal at last.
这可是我们在这里发现的第四个了 You know,this is only the fourth one we've found on this site
当然 不算不见了的那个 apart from the one that's got lost,of course.
这要拉维涅神父翻译 是吧? And Pere Lavigny,he translates them,n'est-ce pas?
嗯 没多少东西要翻译的 Well,there's not usually much to translate,
大部分都是绘图 they're more pictorial.
尽管穿越了好几个世纪 Although that varies from age to age.
这里还有个简短的签名 就在图案旁边 This one's just got a short inscription,just by the picture.
很可能是拥有者的名字 It's probably the name of the owner.
有多久的历史了? How old is it?
哦 大约五千年了 Oh,about 5,000 years.
非常精美 Oh,it is of great beauty.
我在用粘土印出模子 I'm just doing the mould in the Plasticine
然后做个石膏样本 and then we make a plaster cast
他就从这上面翻译 and he works from that.
太有才了 That's most ingenious.
你们这儿有很多粘土吗? Have you got a lot of Plasticine?
我也想来试试了 I could do with a bit.
黑斯廷斯 你这个年纪 Hastings,you're of too great an age
玩粘土太为老不尊了吧 to play with Plasticine.
我房门上有个小洞 There's a hole in the door of my room,
一到夜晚蚊子就会顺着那小孔飞进来 and the mosquitoes just seem to stream through it at night.
哦 请自便吧 器皿橱那边还有一些 Oh,help yourself,there's some in the stationary cupboard.
哦 Oh.
我记得这里是上了锁的 I think it's where there used to be a lock.
他们把锁打开了 留下了...我说 They've taken the lock away and left the... I say,
这是什么? 波罗? What's this? Poirot?
像是个面具 It's some sort of mask.
多么不可思议啊 How extraordinary.
这玩意儿是怎么到这儿的呢? How did that get in there?
约瑟夫! Joseph!
约瑟夫在哪儿? 约瑟夫? Where's Joseph? Joseph?
我醒之前他就起来了 我哪儿也找不着他 He got up before I was awake and I can't find him anywhere.
对不起 我没看见他 他不在挖掘现场吗? I'm sorry,I haven't seen him. He's not out at the dig?
不在 No.
一个晚上就好 It will just be for the one night.
好的 先生 Very good sir.
谢谢 Thank you.
先生 我要发几份电报 Monsieur,I would like to send these telegrams.
这一份发到突尼斯 This to Tunisia,
这三份发到美国去 and these three to the United States of America.
不要让他们进来 Keep them back.
借过 借过 Excusez-moi,excusez-moi s'il vous plait.
万恶的毒品逼得我 Now that this foul drug has led me
去杀人 to murder.
我实在是没有办法活下去了 I can no longer live with myself.
没有我在身边 玛丽会过得更好 Marie would be better off without me.
啊 黑斯廷斯上校! Ah,Captain Hastings!
有没有那个在屋外游荡的人的消息? Is there any news of the man who was hanging around outside?
- 那个和我说话的人? - 没有 - The man I spoke to? - I don't think so.
我一直觉得 I've been wondering since
那个人会不会是一个 whether the man could have been an Iraqi
故意打扮成欧洲人的伊拉克人 dressed up to look like a European.
我觉得他对利德勒太太 Seems clear to me he had some overwhelming interest
好像过度关心了 in Mrs Leidner.
你的朋友 波罗先生 今天要来看我们吧 Your friend Monsieur Poirot is coming out to visit us today.
不了 他今天忙着发电报 No,he's a bit busy today,sending telegrams.
电报? 发去哪里? Telegrams... Where to?
他说是发到全世界 All over the world he said,
但是那也许是 外国人夸张的说话方式 but that was probably a bit of foreign exaggeration.
我想他或许也夸大了 I think perhaps he also exaggerated
他到这里需要的时间吧 黑斯廷斯上校 the length of time it would take him,Captain Hastings.
天啊 是波罗! Good Lord. Poirot!
我没想到你今天会来 I didn't think you were coming out here today.
梅卡尔多先生自杀了 黑斯廷斯 Monsieur Mercado has committed suicide,Hastings.
不要泄露出去 你好 拉维涅神父 Not a word. Bonjour,Pere Lavigny.
你好 波罗先生 Bonjour,Monsieur Poirot.
拉维涅神父刚刚在问我 Father Lavigny was asking me about that fellow
我看到的那个往窗户里偷窥的家伙 I saw peering in through the window.
啊 Ah.
太太 Mademoiselle.
你好 阿布杜拉 Hello,Abdullah.
护士? Nurse?
你最好跟我走一趟 You'd better come with me.
我来回答你的问题 神父 不 So,in answer to your question,mon Pere,non.
那个人也许根本就不重要 The man is probably of no significance anyway.
啊 好漂亮的杯子! Ah,the so beautiful cup!
嗯 Mm.
噢 真的很漂亮啊 Oh,so beautiful.
这宝贝有一段日子了啊 黑斯廷斯 And so ancient,Hastings.
而且今天上面也没有涂蜡 No wax on it today either.
蜡 Wax?
是的 Yes.
手柄这里有一点蜡 There were little bits of wax around the handle.
啊 是的 肯定是蜡烛油 Ah,yes. Candle grease,no doubt.
哦 不要! 不要! Oh,no! No!
要我陪你去吗? Do you need me to go with you?
不会有事的 It's alright.
这么说是梅卡尔多杀死了那个阿拉伯人? Does that mean Mercado killed the Arab?
但是警方很清楚那个阿拉伯人是个毒贩子 But the Arab was well known to the police as a dealer in drugs.
你觉得利德勒是不是也是他杀的? Do you think he killed Mrs Leidner too?
她也许已经知道梅卡尔多是个瘾君子了 She may have known of the addiction of Monsieur Mercado.
而且也许对利德勒太太而言 And perhaps it would have suited the temperament of Madame Leidner
藏着一个她随时可以说出来的 to feel that she knew a secret
会带来毁灭性后果的秘密 she could reveal at any minute,
很和她的心意 嗯? with the effects most disastrous,eh?
所以说 梅卡尔多先生 So,for Monsieur Mercado,certainement
当然有杀人动机 he would have had a motive.
发生什么事了 约翰逊太太 Is something the matter,Mademoiselle Johnson?
- 没有 - 是和梅卡尔多先生有关吗? - No - Is it to do with Monsieur Mercado?
你必须告诉我 太太 You must tell me,Mademoiselle.
我...我刚刚看到了 I've...I've just seen something.
你看到什么了? And what is it that you have seen?
太太 告诉我 这很重要 It is important that you tell me,Mademoiselle.
我看到了 人可以怎么从外面进来 I've seen how someone could come in from outside...
而且不被人发现 ..and no-one would ever guess.
怎么说? How?
你必须向我解释清楚 太太 You must explain to us,Mademoiselle.
让我先想想 I've got to think it out first.
她还好吗? Is she alright?
黑斯廷斯 我今晚要在这歇一宿 Hastings,I think I shall rest here for the night.
好家伙! 为什么要跟着她转? Good man! Why run after her?
你独立断案的本事到哪儿去了! Show your independence!
作为一个年长的已婚男士 As an old,married man,
我不介意告诉你 波罗 I don't mind telling you,Poirot
黑斯廷斯 你妻子不是要你离开吗? Hasting,is it not true that your wife requested that you should leave?
没错 但是 Well,that's true,but
她不仅让你离开家 And that she requested that you should leave not only your home,
还要你离开 but the continent
她所在的大陆? in which it is situated?
是的 不过这是为了度假 Yes. But just for a holiday.
她觉得自己需要休息一段日子 She felt she needed a bit of a break.
嗯 那就拜托你不要像女性专家一样 Mm. Then perhaps you will kindly not to presume to lecture me
对我说教 as an expert on the psychology of women.
我真没想到会是梅卡尔多 I would never have thought it of Joe Mercado.
我从来没怀疑他 I never suspected a thing.
是的 利德勒先生 Eh bien,Dr Leidner,
吸毒的人总是很擅长 and addict is always adept to the extreme
隐瞒他有毒瘾的事实 in concealing his addiction.
那么 你的案子调查得怎么样了 波罗先生? So,where does this put your investigation now,Mr Poirot?
我不知道这件事能给案子带来什么帮助 I do not know that is adds to it,
也不知道它对案子有什么影响 科尔曼先生 nor that it takes away from it,Monsieur Coleman.
但是这次案子的进展比我预计的要慢多了 But this investigation,it marches more slowly than I had expected.
可它至少还在进展中 But it marches.
我只希望查案过程中 别再有什么意外了 I only hope it holds for us no more surprises.
阿门 Amen to that.
请进 Entrez.
我给你带了睡衣和剃须刀 波罗 I brought you a pair of pyjamas,Poirot,and a razor.
哦 你真是太好了 我的朋友 Oh,that is so good of you,mon ami.
非常感谢 Thank you very much.
你确定你睡在这里没问题吗 波罗? Are you sure you're going to be alright in here,Poirot?
是的 当然没问题 黑斯廷斯 Yes,of course I shall be alright,Hastings.
告诉你 我是不会想在这里睡觉的 I wouldn't want to sleep in here,I don't mind telling you.
黑斯廷斯 过去的已经过去了 Hastings,what is done is done.
这个房间很普通 The room,it is entirely neutral.
没有理由说 There are no resonances
利德勒太太死后这里就成鬼屋了吧 that are ghostly at the death of Mme Leidner.
也许 我在这里能发现什么 And perhaps,there is something that I may learn.
好吧 Yes.
还是一样 All the same
晚安 黑斯廷斯 Good night,Hastings.
你说什么? 哦 哦 What? Oh ah,well,er,
晚安 波罗 good night,Poirot.
约翰逊小姐 Miss Johnson.
噢! Oh!
太太! 约翰逊太太! Mademoiselle! Mademoiselle Johnson!
约翰逊太太? Mademoiselle Johnson?
让我来 Let me.
啊 她喝了有腐蚀性的东西 Agh,she's drunk something corrosive.
没事了 约翰逊小姐 你马上就会好的 It's alright,Miss Johnson,we'll soon have you better.
是盐酸 Hydrochloric acid.
发生什么事了? What's happened?
把我床边的包拿给我 Get my bag from beside my bed,
再派人去巴格达请医生来 and send someone to Baghdad for a doctor.
你想说什么 太太? What,Mademoiselle? What?
你要说什么 太太? 试着告诉我 What is it,Mademoiselle? Please,try to tell me.
是什么 太太? What is that,Mademoiselle?
窗...窗户 W-window.
- 风? - 窗户! - Wind? - Window!
那个比利时探子也插了一脚 That Belgian detective poking his nose in
希望对他有好处 much good may it do him.
我们可以在天亮之前出境 We can be across the border by dawn.
什么人能做出这等残忍的事 波罗? Who can have done this foul thing,Mr Poirot?
黑斯廷斯上校 约翰逊小姐怎么样了? Captain Hastings,how is Miss Johnson?
她已经死了 She's dead.
噢 天呐 Oh,God.
如果有人在床边她平时放水杯的地方 If somebody substituted hydrochloric acid
用盐酸掉包了饮用水 for the water that she placed habitually beside her bed,
在半梦半醒的状态 她在意识过来前 half awake,she would have swallowed sufficient of it
就已经喝下足以致命的盐酸了 before she realised.
噢 天啊! Oh...God!
可怜的安妮 Poor Annie.
没有证据证明 Nothing to show
是不是她自己从实验室里拿的盐酸 whether she took it from the laboratory herself,or not.
有个人不见了 先生 There is someone missing,sir.
- 不见了? - 那位法国牧师 - Missing? - The French priest.
你们知道这件事吗? Know anything about this?
我刚才去了邮局 这里有一份你的电报 I was at the post office,and a telegram came for you.
谢谢 小姐 Merci,Mademoiselle.
你在这里做什么 希拉? What are you doing out here,Sheila?
行了 爸爸 Oh,Daddy.
这是用法语写的 It's in French.
电报上说拉维涅神父在过去的六个月里 It tells me that Pere Lavigny has not left his monastery in Carthage
没有离开过迦太基的修道院 for the last six months.
我不明白 I don't understand.
利德勒医生 很遗憾地告诉你 Dr Leidner,I regret to have to inform you
那个在古董屋里的金杯 the the cup of gold in the antika room,
那些用金丝做的装饰品以及其他几件文物 and ornaments made of hair of gold,and several other artefacts,
都是上成的电铸赝品 are electrotypes most clever.
赝品? 不可能 Forgeries? That's impossible.
你在拉维涅神父来这里之前见过他吗? Did you know Pere Lavigny by sight before he arrived?
没有 没有 天呐 Not by sight,no,good God.
但是 在伯德博士突然生病期间 But on the illness,most sudden,of Dr Byrd,
你发了一份电报到迦太基 是不是? you sent a telegram to Carthage,did you not?
让拉维涅神父来接替他的工作? Asking Pere Lavigny to replace him?
拦截电报是再容易不过的了 And to intercept a telegram,what could be easier?
梅特兰警长 我想 Superintendent Maitland,I conjecture that it would be wise
要提醒边境上的工作人员小心一点 to alert the border posts to watch out
他是和另外一个人一起出境的 for him travelling with another.
听到了吗 兹巴利军士? Got that,Sergeant Zibari?
快点广播通知巴格达! Get on the radio to Baghdad!
是 先生 Yes,sir.
但是 他们为什么要杀死约翰逊小姐? But why did they have to kill Miss Johnson?
她和他们的事有什么关系? What had she got to do with them?
什么关系都没有 警长 Nothing at all,Superintendent.
她在死前试着要说些什么 She was trying to say something before she died,
是吗 波罗先生? wasn't she,Mr Poirot?
是的 Oui,
我觉得她想说的是"窗户" I thought she was trying to say the word "window".
案发时窗子是开的吗? Was the window open?
是的 她总是开着窗户 Yes. She always kept it open.
我在想是不是有人从窗户外进来换掉了饮用水 I wondered if someone had changed the drinking water that way.
丽瑟莲护士 Nurse Leatheran,
如果她注意到有只手从窗户偷偷伸进来 if she had observed the mysterious hand entering through the window
换了水壶 and exchange the jug,
她不可能毫不迟疑的 scarcely would she have swallowed the contents of the glass
喝掉杯子里的东西 without the hesitation considerable.
那她为什么要说窗户? Then why was she talking about the window?
你确定她说的是... Are we sure that's what she...
梅特兰警长 先生! Superintendent Maitland,sir!
打开它 Open it.
你看 Look.
这不是血迹是什么? If that isn't blood,I don't know what it is.
都怪我 黑斯廷斯 I blame myself,Hastings.
我应该让她告诉我们的 I should have made her tell us.
什么 当她说她知道人可以怎么从外面进来 What,when she said she realised how someone could get in from outside
- 而不被发现吗? - 是的 - without anyone knowing? - Oui.
可怜的女人 La pauvre femme.
那你又能怎么让她告诉我们呢? But how could you have made her tell us?
不过她究竟看到什么了? But what did she see?
嗯 她说她要好好想想 Well,she said she wanted to think it out.
是的 她就是因为那样才会死的 黑斯廷斯 Yes,and that is what signed her death warrant,Hastings.
窗户 The window.
噢 黑斯廷斯 Oh,Hastings,
我真笨 what a fool that I have been.
真相原来如此明显 When the truth,it is so clear.
如此简单 So simple.
在案件的调查过程中 I have said several times
我已经提过好几次了 in the course of this investigation
这桩案子是以利德勒太太的个人魅力为中心的 that this case revolved around the personality of Madame Leidner.
很显然 It became quite clear to me
利德勒太太与生俱来拥有的 that Madame Leidner was a woman endowed by nature,
不仅仅是美貌 not only with beauty,
还有一种魔力 but with a kind of magic
一种灾难性的魔力 that was calamitous
这种魔力有时会和美貌共存 ..that can sometimes accompany beauty.
这种女人总会带来灾难 Such women can often bring disaster.
有时是带给其他人 有时是带给自己 Sometimes on others and sometimes on themselves.
利德勒太太在嫁给弗雷德里克·博斯纳时 Madame Leidner was very young
还很年轻 when she first married a Monsieur Frederick Bosner
但婚后不久 她就不幸的成了寡妇 but she was widowed most tragically very soon after the wedding.
就是这个时候 她开始收到一些信件 It was at this time that she began to receive letters
一些匿名的恐吓信 that were anonymous and most threatening.
但她却怀疑这些信是 But which she suspected as coming from William Bosner,
她前夫的弟弟威廉·博斯纳写的 the young brother of her late husband.
这些年来 Over the years,
每当她与男士开始一段罗曼史时 every time she becomes involved romantically with a man,
就会收到一封匿名的恐吓信 a letter most threatening and anonymous,it would arrive
而她的罗曼史 and the affair,
也将会告吹 it comes to nothing.
但是当她与利德勒博士在一起 But then there appears on the scene Dr Leidner.
就没有收到这种信件了 And no such letter arrives.
他们相爱 然后订婚 They fall in love,they become engaged,
还是没有收到任何信件 and still no letter.
突然间 没有什么可以阻碍博斯纳太太 Suddenly,nothing stands in the way of Madame Bosner
成为利德勒太太了 becoming Madame Leidner.
为什么? Why?
为什么在他们婚后 当她来到这里时 And why then did such a letter arrive
又收到了这种信件? after the wedding with Dr Leidner,when she arrived here?
这都是以前的事了 波罗 This is history,Poirot.
是的 我的朋友们 Oui,d'accord mon ami,
但是 这是非常重要的往事 but history of the importance extreme.
警长 我就说说现在 But now superintendent,I will come to the present
说一说利德勒太太特别的同伴们 and a consideration most particular of the entourage of Madame Leidner.
乍一看 他们其中任何一个人都可能是凶手 On the face of it,any one of them may have committed a murder.
这简直是胡说八道 Look here,that's absolute rot.
不不不 科尔曼先生 这不是胡说八道 No,no,no Monsieur Coleman,it is not the rot.
首先 第一个有嫌疑的人就是拉维涅神父 Alors,the first person to consider was Pere Lavigny.
当然 他现在逃跑了 Who now,of course,has fled
但这说明他只是个小偷 but revealed himself to be a thief and a forger
是个造假古董的骗子 of the antiquities archaeological,hmm,
但我认为 他不是凶手 but not,I think,a murderer.
还有三个人也有着完美的不在场证明 Also there are three persons who have the alibis that are watertight.
利德勒博士 Dr Leidner
从来都没有离开过屋顶 who never left the roof,
理查德·凯里先生 Monsieur Richard Carey,
当时正在挖掘现场工作 who was working at the dig,
科尔曼先生 当时正在巴格达 and Monsieur Coleman,who was in Baghdad.
但是 朋友们 这些不在场证据 But even these alibis,mes amis
并不像表面上那么完美 不是吗? are not as good as they seem,hm?
不是的 除了利德勒博士 Non. Except that of Dr Leidner.
毫无疑问 他始终都在屋顶上 There is no doubt that Dr Leidner was on the roof all of the time
在凶案发生很长一段时间后他才下来 and only descended long after the murder,it had happened.
但是 现在我们需要停下来 But now it is necessary for us to pause for a moment..
想一想 ..to consider
梅特兰小姐 Mademoiselle Maitland.
梅特兰小姐对我很坦诚 Mademoiselle Maitland was very open with me
谈到她对利德勒太太的看法 concerning her feelings for Madame Leidner.
我们俩合不来 We didn't hit it off
因为露易丝知道我看穿了她 because Louise knew that I saw through her.
事实上 我不会介意 In fact,I wouldn't have much objected
自己亲自动手除掉她 to putting her out of the way myself.
那么 在利德勒太太被害的时候 太太 Then for the time of death of Madame Leidner,Mademoiselle,
我希望你有很好的不在场证据 I hope you have a good alibi.
不在场证据? 我当时在俱乐部打网球 Alibi? I was playing tennis at the club.
你随便问谁都行 You can ask anybody.
不过 那是真的吗? But was that true?
当然 她是这里唯一的年轻女子 Of course she's the only young creature in the place
她被那些争相献殷勤的小伙子们给宠坏了 so she gets spoilt by all the young men's dancing attendance on her.
倒不是说她没有鼓励他们 Not that she doesn't encourage them.
昨天下午她还来过这儿 She was out here yesterday afternoon
找一个小伙子或是其他什么人 looking around for one or other of them.
我在与约翰逊太太的闲谈中 I heard something very different in a conversation most casual
发现你和她的说法很不一样 that I had with Mademoiselle Johnson.
好吧 我在吃完午饭后骑马去了挖掘现场 Alright,I rode out to the dig after lunch.
那他们问你的时候 小姐 Then why did you not say so,Mademoiselle,
你为什么不提这件事? when they asked you?
我不能说 I couldn't.
父亲不喜欢我一个人来这里 Daddy doesn't like me coming out here by myself.
巴格达实在是太无聊了 It's so boring in Baghdad,
你不知道有多无聊 you don't know what it's like.
但是 你承认了你不喜欢利德勒太太 But you admit that you did not like Mrs Leidner.
我们不喜欢很多人 We don't like a lot of people,
但是我不会去把他们杀了 but I don't go around murdering them.
我只是因为想找人聊天 才骑马到这里来 I just rode out here because I wanted someone to talk to.
在距离探险队小屋不远的地方 I wasn't far from the expedition house
我看到探险车停在了河床 when I saw the expedition car drawn up in a wadi.
我觉得很可疑 然后就看见了科尔曼先生 I thought it was rather queer,then I saw Mr Coleman.
你有没有和科尔曼先生说话? Did you speak with Monsieur Coleman?
- 没有 - 为什么不说? - No. - Why not?
他看上去鬼鬼祟祟的 He was looking very furtive.
这给了我很不好的感觉 It gave me an unpleasant feeling.
我知道这看上去很可疑 I know it looks a bit fishy,
但我已经给出了很好的解释 but I've got a perfectly good explanation.
梅卡尔多先生给了我一个非常漂亮的柱形印章 Mr Mercado had given me a jolly fine cylinder seal
让我把它带回古董室 to take back to the antika.
我把它放在衣服口袋里 出去转了一圈 I put it in my jacket pocket,went for a walk,
就把这事给忘了 and forgot all about it.
然后第二天它就不见了 The next day,I discovered it had gone.
肯定是我在河床散步 I must have dropped it when I took my jacket off
脱衣服的时候给弄掉了 as I was walking along that wadi.
我匆忙处理完巴格达的公事 I rushed all my business in Baghdad
然后花了一个小时去找它 and spent an hour searching for it.
是的 在凶案发生那天 And so,the behaviour of Monsieur William Coleman
威廉·科尔曼先生的行为的确很可疑 on the day of the murder was indeed certainly suspicious.
但我还是觉得科尔曼先生 But I do not think that Monsieur Coleman,
并没有当杀手的潜质 as Monsieur Coleman,has the temperament of a murderer.
没有 No.
但我们不能否认一种可能 But there is nothing here to veto the idea
就是他活泼的性格 that his personality,which is most cheery,
是为了掩盖他就是威廉·博斯纳先生的事实 might conceal the hidden one of Monsieur William Bosner.
为什么你们每个人都任由这家伙诋毁我? Why all of you listen to this chap beats me?
梅特兰小姐 你到挖掘地的时候 Mademoiselle Maitland,when you arrived at the dig,
有看到什么人吗? did you see anyone?
没看到探险队的人 一个也没有 None of the expedition members,no.
除了那个阿拉伯领班 没别人在了 There seemed to be no-one there but the Arab foreman.
- 见到凯里先生了吗? - 见到了 在那 - Shufta Mr Carey? - Shufta inak. Inak.
你甚至没见到凯里先生? You did not even see Monsieur Carey?
好吧 我见到了 Alright,yes,I did.
就几分钟 在挖掘地附近 For a few moments. Near the dig.
- 我相信我们能... - 希拉 别乱说 - I'm sure we could - Sheila,don't say another word.
我都能当你爸爸了 I am very nearly old enough to be your father.
而你 凯里先生 And you,Monsieur Carey,
你是在梅特兰小姐离开之后 did you leave the dig after Mademoiselle Maitland,
才离开挖掘地的吗? she had departed from you?
- 你直接回屋子里了吗? - 没有 - Did you return towards the house? - No.
根据一些的说法 You see,according to some,
凯里先生和利德勒夫人 他们都不喜欢对方 Monsieur Carey and Madame Leidner,they did not like one another.
而另一个人 梅特兰小姐 Now,another person Mademoiselle Maitland,
提出了一个完全不一样的观点 propounded a theory that was totally different
来解释他们之间客气冷淡的态度 to account for their attitude of la politesse frigide,
而凯里先生也告诉了我一些不同的事情 and Monsieur Carey himself told me something different again.
好吧! Alright!
我恨露易丝·利德勒 I hated Louise Leidner.
这就是事实! That's the truth for you!
这就是事实! That's the truth!
我相信他是真的恨利德勒夫人 I believe that he did hate Madame Leidner.
但他为什么恨她? But why did he hate her?
一开始 He was,to begin with,
他全力帮助他的朋友兼雇主利德勒博士 devoted to his friend and employer,Dr Leidner,
对他妻子漠不关心 and quite indifferent to his wife.
但以利德勒夫人的性格 她肯定不甘心 But that did not suit the temperament of Madame Leidner.
不甘心 No.
所以她打算设计陷害他 So she set herself out to trap him.
然后就发生了什么 And then there occurred something
意料之外的事情 I believe that was totally unforeseen.
她爱上了他 She fell in love with him.
而他也拒绝不了她 And he was not able to resist her.
我很早就这样怀疑了 I suspected something of the sort very early on.
因此我们得出结论 And there we have the truth
他已经忍受这种神经紧张的状态 of the state most terrible of nervous tension
有很长一段时间了 that he has been enduring.
噢 他爱露易丝·利德勒 是的 Oh,he loved Louise Leidner,yes,
但他也很恨她 but also he hated her
因为她害得他不忠于自己的朋友 for undermining his loyalty to his friend.
你是说人是我杀的吗 波罗先生? Are you accusing me of murder,Monsieur Poirot?
你认为是我杀了露易丝? You think I'd kill Louise?
你个笨蛋! You fool!
不 Non.
我只是在带着你们踏上寻找真相之旅 Merely I am taking you all on a journey towards the truth
我得出一个结论 and I have established one fact
这个探险队里的每个人 that every single member of the expedition
都有可能犯案 could have committed the murder,
包括丽瑟莲护士 including Nurse Leatheran.
我是新来的! 我才到这里几个礼拜! I was a stranger! I'd only been here a few weeks!
是的 小姐 但这不就是利德勒夫人怕的吗? Eh bien,ma soeur,was not that just what Madame Leidner was afraid of?
一个新来的陌生人? A stranger from the outside?
而且 作为一个护士 And,as a hospital nurse,
你可以很轻松的杀死 you could easily have killed
利德勒夫人和约翰逊小姐 - 但是... Madame Leidner and Mademoiselle Johnson. - But...
但我不认为你是威廉·博斯纳 不是 But I do not think that you are William Bosner. Non.
当然 有很多男人可以成功的假扮成女人 Of course,there are many men who can impersonate women successfully,
但 不 我认为 but no,it is my belief
正如丽瑟莲护士所说 that Nurse Leatheran is exactly what she says she is
她是个很有能力的护士 a hospital nurse of the most competent.
哦 真谢谢了 Oh,thank you for nothing.
我之前一直在想 All along it had been in the back of my mind
这个探险队里 that one of the members of the expedition
可能有人隐瞒了一些事情 might have some knowledge that they had kept back,
这些事情能够指认凶手 knowledge that would incriminate the murderer.
如果真的是这样 那这个人就危险了 If so,this person would be in danger.
约翰逊小姐的死 And in this I was proved correct most tragically
悲剧的证明了我的推理完全正确 by the death of Mademoiselle Johnson.
两天前的晚上 Two nights ago
当丽瑟莲护士发现约翰逊小姐在哭时 when Nurse Leatheran discovered Mademoiselle Johnson in tears...
还给我! Give that to me!
...丽瑟莲护士发现的那张纸 ..the scrap of paper that was discovered by Nurse Leatheran
被约翰逊小姐烧了 was burnt by Mademoiselle Johnson.
我认为在丽瑟莲护士进房间以前 It is my belief that before Nurse Leatheran entered the room,
约翰逊小姐正在收拾废纸 Mademoiselle Johnson had been tidying up some papers.
她一定是发现了一张 She must have come across a draft that was unfinished
没写完的匿名信的草稿 of one of those letters that were anonymous.
而纸上的字迹 And the handwriting,it is constructed most carefully
完全模仿着利德勒夫人 to resemble that of Madame Leidner,
这应该是凶手不小心落下的 and the killer has been careless to leave it.
但是这时凶手的身份 But now the identity of this killer
已经被约翰逊小姐识破 is known to Mademoiselle Johnson.
她不敢相信 这让她心烦不安 She cannot understand it,it upsets her badly.
在她死的当晚 黑斯廷斯上校和我发现 Then on the evening of her death,Captain Hastings and myself
约翰逊小姐在屋顶上 discovered Mademoiselle Johnson on the roof
深陷恐惧之中 in a state of horror most incredulous.
我知道了怎样能从外面进来 I've seen how someone could come in from outside
而且不被人发现 and no one would ever guess.
我发现约翰逊小姐 I realised that Mademoiselle Johnson
故意看着反方向 deliberately looked in the opposite direction
为了让我们不注意到这个线索 and in order to throw us off the scent
她说了她最先想到的事 said the very first thing that came into her mind.
可是凶手一直在附近看着她 But the murderer had been observing her closely,
而且发觉她已经知道了真相 and realises that she knows the truth.
所以她必须得死 So now she has to die.
那晚她真的死了 但她却想办法给了我提示 And that night she does so,but not before she tried to help me.
怎么了 小姐? What is it Mademoiselle?
窗... Win ..
窗户 Window.
但是她说出来的只有 However the only words she could manage to articulate
"窗户 窗户" were "the window,the window".
约翰逊小姐想告诉我 Mademoiselle Johnson was trying to tell me
那天她在屋顶上发现了什么 what she had realised on the roof that day,
杀害利德勒夫人的凶手是如何犯案的 how the murder of Madame Leidner it had been committed.
是的 首先你们要注意的是 Eh bien,first of all you must all realise one thing,
利德勒夫人房间的窗户 that the window to the room of Madame Leidner
是正好面向院子的 was on the side facing away from the courtyard.
所以 利德勒夫人躺在床上 半睡半醒 So,Madame Leidner is lying on her bed,half asleep.
那个常在晚上出现吓她的面具 The mask which has been used already to frighten her in the night-time
又开始轻敲窗户了 begins to tap on the window.
但现在 她已经知道这是怎么一回事了 But now she recognises it for what it is
就是个吊在线上 用石灰和油墨做的东西 a thing of plaster and ink hanging on a string.
她不害怕 一点也不 She is not frightened,no.
她打开窗户 She opens the window
伸出头往上看 想知道是谁在吓她 and turns her face upwards to see who is playing on her the trick.
在那块磨石砸到她的脑袋之前 Before the quern of stone smashes down on her head
利德勒夫人有没有看到凶手的脸呢? does Madame Leidner see,I wonder,the face of her murderer?
在起居室看书的约翰逊小姐 The scream,it is heard by Mademoiselle Johnson,
听到了一声尖叫 who is reading in the living room,
而她能听到是因为 but heard only because at this moment
当时利德勒夫人房间的窗户是开着的 the window to the room of Madame Leidner is open,
黑斯廷斯上校的实验已经证明了这个 as was proved by the experiment most successful of Captain Hastings.
杀了人之后 The deed accomplished,
凶手利用绑磨石的绳子 the murderer pulls up again the quern by the rope
把磨石拉了上去 that he's attached to it.
我有没说过 这是一件情杀案? Have I not said all along that this was a crime passionel?
弗雷德里克·博斯纳先生 Alors,Monsieur Frederick Bosner,
露易丝·利德勒的第一任丈夫 the first husband of Louise Leidner,
一直爱着她 偏执地爱着她 loved her with a passion that only a woman of her kind could evoke.
但我并不认为 But I had dismissed already from my mind
弗雷德里克·博斯纳先生有嫌疑 that Monsieur Frederick Bosner could be a suspect in this case
因为弗雷德里克·博斯纳先生已经死了 because Monsieur Frederick Bosner,he was dead.
死了快二十年了 Had been dead for nearly 20 years.
他真的死了吗? Or had he?
噢 当然 他被判了死刑 Oh,certainly he is sentenced to death.
但他逃了 But he escapes.
可是之后发生了一起火车事故 But then there is the railway accident.
基本确定他已经死了 嗯? Now surely he is dead,eh?
但如果他还没死呢? But suppose he was still not dead?
假如他以一个新身份 Suppose he manages to emerge from the wreck
成功从事故中逃了出来 with a new identity.
这个新身份原来是个 The identity of a young man
在火车事故毁容的年轻男人 who was so disfigured in this railway accident
那么他就会被当做弗雷德里克·博斯纳埋掉 that he is buried as Monsieur Frederick Bosner.
弗雷德里克·博斯纳先生就会被遗忘 嗯? And Monsieur Frederick Bosner will be forgotten,n'est-ce pas?
抓着我的手! Take my hand!
他将有一个新的名字 He will be free to build a new life.
开始一段新的人生 Using a new name.
那么... So...
...弗雷德里克·博斯纳先生 ...is Monsieur Frederick Bosner
现在就在我们中间吗? here amongst us today?
这位弗雷德里克·博斯纳先生 This Frederick Bosner
能力超群 对吧? is a man of ability,eh?
他找到了一个很适合自己的职业 He finds himself a profession that is congenial to him.
还一直密切注意着自己妻子的行踪 He also keeps himself informed of the movements of his wife.
她不应该属于其他男人 She shall belong to no other man.
在他认为有必要时 他会寄出一封信 And whenever he judges it necessary,he dispatches a letter.
每一封信都很仔细的 And he copies most carefully
模仿了她的字迹 some of the peculiarities of her handwriting
以防利德勒夫人 just in case Madame Leidner decides
把信交给警方 to take to the police his letters.
但这些充满威胁的匿名信 But these letters that are anonymous and threatening
在她遇到利德勒博士 与他相爱和订婚期间 they do not arrive when she meets,falls in love with,
并没有出现 and becomes engaged to Dr Leidner.
这是个谜 It is a puzzle.
也许利德勒夫人在死前 And perhaps Madame Leidner realised the answer to these puzzlements
知道了谜底 in the moment before she died.
啊 当然 约翰逊小姐后来也发现了! Ah,certainly,that is what Mademoiselle Johnson had realised!
凶手是如何在屋顶上犯案的 How the murder,it had been committed from the roof.
但和利德勒夫人一样 But what Mademoiselle Johnson could not have realised
约翰逊小姐也不知道 as Madame Leidner had done...
凶手不仅是她爱慕的 ...was that not only was the murderer Dr Leidner,
利德勒博士 whom she adored...
还是真正的弗雷德里克·博斯纳先生 ...but that Dr Leidner was indeed Monsieur Frederick Bosner.
他等了十五年 He has to wait 15 years
才让时间在他的脸上留下了痕迹 before the ravages of time to his face
而且 利德勒夫人对弗雷德里克·博斯纳 and to the memory of Madame Leidner
的记忆也模糊掉了 obliterates the old Frederick Bosner.
他们相遇了 一切很顺利 They meet and all goes well.
他们相爱了 一切很顺利 They marry and all goes well.
直到利德勒夫人的生命里 Until into the life of Madame Leidner
出现了理查德·凯里先生 there appears Monsieur Richard Carey
她的命运因此改变 and that seals her fate.
那里现在干净点了 露易丝近来一直在抱怨 It's a bit clearer up there now. Louise has been complaining lately
没有足够的地方可以逛逛 there's not enough room to walk about.
我去告诉她这个好消息 I'm just going to tell her the good news.
他匆匆走到窗户前 He hurries to the window.
关上窗户并栓牢 Closes it and fastens it.
他把他的妻子 He picks up and transports the body of his wife
移到床和门之间的地方 to a point between the bed and the door.
然后他发现窗边的地毯上有血迹 He then notices a slight stain on the rug by the window
因此他把脸盆架前的地毯 so he places this rug in front of the washstand
和窗前的地毯对调了 and the rug in front of the washstand by the window.
如果这块血迹被发现了 If this stain,it is noticed,
也只会和洗脸盆有关系 it will be connected with the washstand.
不会和窗户扯上一点关系 There must be no suggestion that the window played any part in the murder.
噢 天啊 露易丝! Oh,God. Louise!
哦 露易丝! Oh,Louise!
最残酷最可怕的谋杀 利德勒博士 A murder most cruel and hideous,Dr Leidner.
而你并未满足... And not content with that...
...你试图嫁祸对你又好又忠心 ...you tried to incriminate Mademoiselle Johnson
而且已经爱上你的 who was good and loyal to you,
约翰逊小姐 who was in love with you...
你把砸死你妻子的磨石 ...by planting in her room...
放到了她的房间里 ...the very quern with which you had killed your wife.
我太累了 I am so tired.
安妮·约翰逊的事我很抱歉 I'm sorry about Anne Johnson.
那样做很不好 很愚蠢 That was bad,senseless.
那不是我 It wasn't me.
是我身体里的恐惧 It was fear on my part.
你会是一个很好的考古学家 波罗先生 You'd have made a good archaeologist,Mr Poirot.
你有重现历史的天赋 You have the gift of re-creating the past.
我爱露易丝 我杀了她 I loved Louise and I killed her.
但你不能拥有他 凯里! But you shan't have her,Carey!
你背叛了我 You betrayed me.
你背叛了我们俩 You betrayed both of us.
噢 如果你了解露易丝... Oh,if you'd known Louise...
...你会懂的 ...you'd have understood.
不 No.
我想你已经懂了 I think you understand anyway.
你在这儿干什么 黑斯廷斯? What are you doing here,Hastings?
我在享受我在巴格达最后的时光 I'm enjoying my last few moments in Baghdad.
在四十三分钟后 And in 43 minutes,
这个星期最后一趟去伊斯坦布尔的火车就开啦 the last train for one week,it leaves for Istanbul.
从这儿去车站只要十分钟 It's ten minutes to the station
我的行李已经装上出租车了 来杯草药茶吧 and the cab's nearby with my luggage. Have a tisane.
我真不知道你还会说阿拉伯语 波罗 I didn't know you spoke Arabic,Poirot.
