"No, I was quite free."“没有,那时我根本还没有男朋友。”
"You have heard, no doubt, that his wedding ring has been taken. Does that suggest anything to you? Suppose that some enemy of his old life had tracked him down and committed this crime, what possible reason could he have for taking his wedding ring?"“你当然听说过,他的结婚戒指被人拿走了。这件事和你有什么关系吗?假定是他过去生活里的仇人追踪到这里并下了毒手,那么,把他的结婚戒指拿走的原因可能是什么呢?”
For an instant I could have sworn that the faintest shadow of a smile flickered over the woman's lips.一瞬间,我敢说道格拉斯夫人唇边掠过一丝微笑。
"I really cannot tell," she answered. "It is certainly a most extraordinary thing."“这我实在说不上,"她回答道,“这可实在是一件非常离奇古怪的事。”
"Well, we will not detain you any longer, and we are sorry to have put you to this trouble at such a time," said the inspector. "There are some other points, no doubt; but we can refer to you as they arise."“好,我们不再多耽误你了,在这样的时刻来打扰你,我们很是抱歉,"麦克唐纳说道,“当然,还有一些其它问题,以后遇到时,我们再来问你吧。”
She rose, and I was again conscious of that quick, questioning glance with which she had just surveyed us. "What impression has my evidence made upon you?" The question might as well have been spoken. Then, with a bow, she swept from the room.她站了起来。我看到,象刚才一样,她又用轻捷而带有疑问的眼光扫视了我们一下:“你们对我的证词有什么看法呢?”这个问题真象是她已说出来一样。然后,她鞠了一躬,裙边轻扫地面,走出了房间。
"She's a beautiful woman--a very beautiful woman," said MacDonald thoughtfully, after the door had closed behind her. "This man Barker has certainly been down here a good deal. He is a man who might be attractive to a woman. He admits that the dead man was jealous, and maybe he knew best himself what cause he had for jealousy. Then there's that wedding ring. You can't get past that. The man who tears a wedding ring off a dead man's--What do you say to it, Mr. Holmes?"“她真是一个美丽的女人——一个非常美丽的女人,"在她关上门以后,麦克唐纳沉思地说道,“巴克这个人一定常常到这里来的。他大概是个起受女人青睐的男子。他承认死者是个爱吃醋的人。他可能最清楚道格拉斯的醋意何来。还有结婚戒指的事。你无法放过这些问题。对这个从死者手中夺走结婚戒指的人……福尔摩斯先生,你有什么看法?”
My friend had sat with his head upon his hands, sunk in the deepest thought. Now he rose and rang the bell. "Ames," he said, when the butler entered, "where is Mr. Cecil Barker now?"我的朋友坐在那里,两手托着下巴,深深地陷入沉思。这时他站起身来,拉响了传呼铃。“艾姆斯,"当管家走进来时,福尔摩斯说道,“塞西尔·巴克先生现在在哪儿?”
"I'll see, sir."“我去看看,先生。”

"No, I was quite free."
