Art you judging by her look? Not just that. Remember the way she described her stepfather? To listen to her, he's an absolute monster. All her life she's been jealous of him and her mother. A common story. Any psychologist would say: Don't trust a husband who speaks bad of his mother-in-law, don't trust a stepson who speaks bad of his stepmother. Don't listen to all the terrible things a stepdaughter tells you about her stepfather. - Let me through! - You can't go in there. - But I will! - No! - You have no right. - Let me through! - You can't... - Get out of my way! Old cow! - Go away, bandit! - Idiot. Which one of you is Sherlock Holmes? I said, which one of you is Sherlock Holmes? I am Sherlock Holmes. Doctor Grimsby Roylott. My stepdaughter Ellen Stoner has just been here. - So? - What do you mean, so? You don't think you can pull any tricks on me, do you? The old cow Farintosh gave her your address. What lies did she tell you about me? That's none of your business. Listen here, young scoundrel! I had to do with your kind. Just stick your long nose in my business, and set what happens. I'll make a roast-beef out of you. Listen, sir, I won't allow... Shut your mouth! This fool wants to teach me! Another bloody sleuth. Mind you, both of you: Don't try and play any tricks on me. Now what do you say, my dear psychologist? You can't go there alone, Holmes. I'll go with you. Very well. And please take your gun. The bastard. Broke into the house, left footprints all over the floor, ruined a good poker. This cast is very interesting and very simple. I call those a "one-pipe cast". Meaning? While you smoke out one pipe, you find the answer. You mean to say, you already know the answer? There're a few details missing but that's not the point The main thing is to nail down the murderer and help the young lady. Gentlemen. There's Stock-Moron. Stop here. Thank you, we'll walk from here. Thank you, sir. Watch the window. There's the signal. Let's go, Watson. I'm so glad you came, Mr. Holmes. No. - That's your former bedroom? - Yes. Your stepfather is not pushing with the repairs. That's my sister's room. Now I sleep here. Anything new, Miss Stoner? - Nothing. - What's with your arm? I didn't see that yesterday. It must be your stepfather. Yes. He was very cross with me for my coming to set you. Mr. Holmes, keep away from him, he is a terrible man. What a bastard! The shutters art strong enough. You can't open them from the outside. Watson. Have you ever seen such a strange bed? - Strange? - The legs are screwed on to the floor. What's this? That's a string from a bell. To summon the servants. - Was it always there? - No, Roylott put it there some time before Julia died. But wt never used it, we did everything ourselves. If I understand correctly, that is an air- hole. Yes, it was also made about that time. We're through here, now let's go to your stepfather’s room. - But it's locked. - We’ll try to unlock it then. Miss Stoner, is there a cat in the house? No, no cat. Just the hyena and the baboon. We haven't seen your hyena, but I doubt it's going to drink from such a small saucer. - Where's the baboon? - Wandering about the house. Very well, Watson. Better than I expected. I have to ask you a favor. It's not quite something usual. I'll do anything you say. Me and Watson will spend the night in your bedroom. And what about me? You'll stay with us. It is necessary. Very well. When he comes in - and we will hear him - I'll put out the lights, as if you'd gone to sleep. Watson, you sit here. Try not to fall asleep. Your life depends on it. Get your gun ready. Whatever happens - stay quiet. Don't be afraid, that's a night moth. There's many of them. Watson, did you see? Did you see it? (a man's cry) Mr. Holmes, you saved more than just my lift. You... You delivered me ------------------------------ Читайте также: - текст Покровские ворота на английском - текст Нэйт и Хейс на английском - текст Звёздный путь: Фильм на английском - текст Водитель для Веры на английском - текст Рассказ домовладельца на английском |
