Well, my theory is that he followed Drebber as far as the Brixton Road.

啊，根据我的看法，他追锥伯一直追到了布瑞克斯顿路。

The next morning we heard of Mr. Drebber's mysterious death.

第二天早晨，我们就听到了锥伯先生被人谋杀的消息。

He still carried the heavy stick which the mother described him as having with him when he followed Drebber.

那时他还拿着她母亲所说的追击锥伯用的那个大棒子。

'I suppose you are arresting me for being concerned in the death of that scoundrel Drebber, ' he said.

'我想你们抓我，是认为我和那个坏蛋锥伯的被杀有关吧。'

Stangerson seemed to be put out at that, but Drebber was rather pleased than otherwise.

斯坦节逊听了以后，似乎很懊恼，可是锥伯却比什么都要高兴。

Drebber answered that the matter was a delicate one, and that he must go alone.

锥伯回答说，这是一件微妙的事，他必须独自去。

The hand of the Lord shall be heavy upon you, cried young Drebber; He will arise and smite you!

上帝的手要重重地惩罚你。他既然能够让你生，也就能够要你死！

Presently some luggage was brought out and after a time Drebber and Stangerson followed it, and drove off.

立刻，有人把一些行李拿了出来，不久，锥伯和斯坦节逊也跟着出来，他们一同上车而去。

Nothing. Stangerson had Drebber's purse in his pocket, but it seems that this was usual, as he did all the paying.

没有。斯坦节逊身上带着锥伯的钱袋，但是看来平常就是他带着的，因为他是掌管开支的。

Drebber himself was drunk half the time, but Stangerson was not to be caught napping.

锥伯经常是喝得醉醺醺的，但是，斯坦节逊却从来毫不疏忽。

We did see Mr. Drebber again.'

后来我们的确又见到过锥伯先生。'

Among these had been Drebber and Stangerson; and no one knew whither they had gone.

锥伯和斯坦节逊也在其中，可是任何人都不知道他们的下落。

At two in the morning Drebber had been found in the Brixton Road.

四日清晨两点钟，锥伯的尸体就在布瑞克斯顿路被发现了。

The very pills which I suspected in the case of Drebber are actually found after the death of Stangerson.

在锥伯一案中我疑心会有某种药丸，现在这种药丸在斯坦节逊死后真的发现了。

'At what o'clock did Mr. Drebber leave your house for the train? ' I asked.

'锥伯先生几点钟离开你们这里去车站的？'

I freely confess that I was of the opinion that Stangerson was concerned in the death of Drebber.

我坦白承认，我原来认为锥伯的被害是和斯坦节逊有关的。

It is well, returned the other. Shall I tell Brother Drebber?

好的，要我传达给锥伯兄弟吗？

She was forced into marrying that same Drebber, and broke her heart over it.

可是她却被迫嫁给了这个锥伯，以致使她含恨而死。

When I looked in at the window, I found Drebber all huddled together in a drunken sleep.

我从车窗向车里一瞧，只见锥伯蜷缩成一团，因酒醉而沉入梦乡。

'Have you heard of the mysterious death of your late boarder Mr. Enoch J. Drebber, of Cleveland? ' I asked.

'你们听到你们以前的房客克利夫兰城的锥伯先生被人暗杀的消息了吗？'
