第五章斐利亚·福克穿越红海和印度洋蒙古号准时在下午三点离开苏伊士。 当地时间，开始了前往亚丁的旅程。 斐利亚·福克没有

care for sight-seeing, so he spent little time on deck. Instead he passed his time much as he did at the Reform Club—he ate his meals and played cards. Unlike his boss, Passepartout truly enjoyed the scenery. He took every chance he could get to stand on deck and watch what passed by. One day when he was out and about, he came across Detective Fix. "Oh," Passepartout said, "you are the kind gentleman I met in Suez!" "And you are the butler to that strange Englishman!" Fix said. "That's correct, Monsieur—" "Fix." "Fix," Passepartout repeated. "I'm happy to see you on board. Where are you going?" "To Bombay." "Why, that's exactly where we're going! Have you been to India before?" Passepartout

他喜欢观光，所以在甲板上待的时间很少。 相反，他打发时间的方式和在改革俱乐部一样——他吃饭、打牌。 路路通和他的老板不一样，他真的很欣赏这里的风景。 他抓住每一个机会站在甲板上，看着窗外的一切。 一天，他在外面闲逛的时候，碰到了费克斯侦探。 “噢，”路路通说，“你就是我在苏伊士遇到的那位好心的先生！”“你就是那个奇怪的英国人的管家！”修复说。 “对，先生——”“费克斯。” “费克斯。”路路通重复了一遍。 “我很高兴在船上见到您。 你要去哪儿？”“孟买”。 “嘿，那正是我们要去的地方！你以前去过印度吗？”路路通

asked. Fix told him that he had indeed been to India. To disguise his true identity as a London detective, he told Passepartout that he was an agent for the Peninsular and Oriental Company. This was the same company that owned the Mongolia. The two men became fast friends and quickly started taking daily walks around the deck together. As they walked, they chatted about what life must be like in India. Fix tried to get Passepartout to tell him more about Phileas Fogg and his curious trip around the world. Passepartout always answered honestly, but he didn't know much. What little he could share was rarely of any interest to Detective Fix. Meanwhile, the Mongolia pushed onward. They passed Mocha, drove through the Straight of Bab-el Mandeb, and then stopped at Aden for more coal. They were still

问。费克斯对他说，他确实去过印度。 为了掩饰自己是伦敦侦探的真实身份，他对路路通说，他是半岛东方公司的代理人。 就是这家公司拥有蒙古号。 两人很快成为了朋友，并很快开始每天一起在甲板上散步。 他们边走边聊印度的生活应该是什么样的。 费克斯想让路路通多给他讲讲斐利亚·福克和他周游世界的奇妙经历。 路路通总是诚实地回答，但他知道的并不多。 他所能分享的那一点点东西，费克斯侦探很少感兴趣。 与此同时，蒙古号继续前进。 他们经过摩卡，驶过曼德海峡，然后停在亚丁买煤。 他们还在

sixteen hundred miles away from Bombay. Fogg once again went on shore to have his passport stamped. He returned to the ship while Passepartout had a look around. By six o'clock, they were back on the ocean. The journey from Aden to Bombay was to take just seven short days. The Indian Ocean was smooth and calm. In fact, the Mongolia made excellent time. It arrived two days early! When they reached the port, Phileas calmly entered the two-day gain in his diary. He also noted the time and the number of miles they had traveled. After saying good-bye to his card partners on board the Mongolia, Phileas gave Passepartout some errands to run and set off in search of the passport office. They already had their tickets for the great railway that

距离孟买1600英里。 福克又回到岸上，在护照上盖了章。 他回到船上，让路路通四处看看。 到六点钟，他们又回到了海上。 从亚丁到孟买的旅程只花了短短七天。 印度洋风平浪静。 事实上，蒙古人做得很好。 它提前两天到了！当他们到达港口时，菲利亚平静地在他的日记中记下了两天的收获。 他还记下了他们的时间和行驶的英里数。 菲利亚跟他在“蒙古号”上的打牌伙伴告别以后，就给路路通办点事，自己就动身去找护照办。 他们已经买了火车票

crossed India from Bombay to Calcutta. It was set to leave for Calcutta at exactly eight o'clock that evening. Phileas wanted Passepartout to make sure he was back by then. With his stamped passport in hand, Phileas set off for the railway station to have his dinner. As for the wonders of Bombay, he didn't truly care to see them. While Phileas tried to eat an awful meal of strange meat, Fix went off in search of the Bombay police station. He told them he was a detective from London on the trail of a robber. He wanted to know if his warrant had arrived—it had not. Fix tried to convince the police to write a new one, but they refused. They said it was a matter for the London police. Fix did not argue with them. He knew that Phileas Fogg wouldn't be staying in Bombay for very long anyway. He would have to find another way to catch

从孟买穿越印度到达加尔各答。 它定于当晚8点整驶往加尔各答。 菲利亚要路路通确保他到时回来。 菲利亚手里拿着盖了章的护照，动身去火车站吃晚饭。 至于孟买的奇景，他并不真想去看。 当菲利亚吃着一顿难吃的怪肉的时候，费克斯出去找孟买警察局去了。 他告诉他们他是伦敦来的一名侦探，正在追踪一名强盗。 他想知道他的搜查令是否到了——没有。 费克斯试图说服警察重新写一份，但他们拒绝了。 他们说这是伦敦警方的事。 费克斯没有跟他们争辩。 他知道斐利亚·福克不会在孟买呆太久的。 他得另想办法接住

him. Meanwhile, Passepartout set off on his errands right away. He had begun to believe that they were indeed on a race around the world. Having bought the new shirts and socks that Phileas had asked for, he took his time exploring Bombay's busy streets and crowded market squares. People wore dresses of all different designs! There were pointed caps and turbans, square bonnets, and long robes. Everyone looked so different! During his walk, Passepartout found himself in the middle of a parade. Girls in pretty costumes danced while shaking noisy tambourines. When the show had passed, Passepartout found himself drawn to a temple. What he didn't know was that foreigners were forbidden from entering these temples. It was against the law for him to go in! Passepartout had barely stepped inside

他。这时，路路通立刻动身去办事了。 他开始相信他们确实在进行环球赛跑。 买了菲利亚要的新衬衫和袜子后，他不慌不忙地逛了逛孟买繁忙的街道和拥挤的市场广场。 人们穿着各种不同设计的衣服！有尖顶的帽子和头巾，方帽和长袍。 每个人看起来都不一样！路路通走着走着，走在一群人的中间。 女孩们穿着漂亮的服装，摇着嘈杂的手鼓跳舞。 演出结束后，路路通发现自己被吸引到了一座寺庙前。 他不知道的是外国人是禁止进入这些寺庙的。 他进去是违法的！路路通还没有走进去
