你可能还记得，那天晚上你没有服用平常吃的那种药。”
You may still remember that you didn't take the usual medicine that night. "
“我记得。”
"I remember."

“我想，他一定在那药里做了手脚，因此他相信你一定会毫无知觉了。
"I think he must have tampered with that medicine, so he believes you will be unconscious.
当然，我知道，不管什么时候，只要他觉得能毫无危险地重新再干，那他还是要再去试试的。
Of course, I know that whenever he feels that he can do it again without danger, he will try again.
你离开卧室自然是他求之不得的机会。
It's natural for him to leave your bedroom.
我让哈里森小姐整天待在屋里，为的是使他不能趁我们不在时先下手。
I asked Miss Harrison to stay in the house all day, so that he could not strike first while we were away.
我一方面使他误认为没有危险，一方面，正如刚才说过的，监视着卧室内的动静。
On the one hand, I made him think that there was no danger; on the other hand, as I said just now, I monitored what was going on in the bedroom.
我早就知道文件十之八九是藏在卧室里，但我不愿拆开所有的地板和壁脚去搜寻它。
I have long known that nine times out of ten the documents are hidden in the bedroom, but I don't want to open all the floors and walls to search for it.

I asked.
“从门里进他得绕过七间卧室，另一方面，他从窗户却可以毫不费力地跳进草坪。
"He has to bypass seven bedrooms to enter through the door, on the other hand, he can easily jump into the lawn through the window.
还有什么问题吗？”
Any more questions? "
“你不认为，”费尔普斯问道，“他有什么行凶的企图吗？
"Don't you think," phelps asked, "does he have any murderous intentions?
那把刀子只能作凶器用啊。”
That knife can only be used as a murder weapon. "
“可能是这样，”福尔摩斯耸耸双肩回答道，“我只能肯定地说，约瑟夫-哈里林先生绝对不是一个肯发善心的君子。”
"Maybe so," Holmes replied, shrugging his shoulders, "I can only say for sure that Mr. Joseph Harrington is definitely not a kind-hearted gentleman."
