11 The Remarkable Incident with Dr. Lanyon

CHAPTER 11 The Remarkable Incident with Dr. Lanyon The police offered thousands of pounds for the arrest of Sir Danvers Carew's murderer. Mr. Hyde, however, was nowhere to be found. It was as if he had dropped off the face of the earth. Not one person had caught even a glimpse of him since the night of the terrible murder. Hyde was certainly the talk

第十一章福尔摩斯博士的离奇事件 兰宁：警方悬赏数千英镑缉拿杀害丹弗斯·卡鲁爵士的凶手。 然而，海德先生却无处可寻。 他仿佛从地球上消失了。 自从可怕的谋杀案发生以来，没有一个人见过他一眼。 海德当然是人们谈论的话题

of the city, though. Vile stories of his cruelty and evil deeds were told on every street corner, office, and home. Each was more awful than the last. Utterson thought this was a particularly brutal case. But, oddly, the death of one man, Sir Danvers, resulted in the renewal of another man's spirits. Dr. Jekyll came out of hiding. He saw old friends again. He began hosting parties and attending social engagements. Utterson also noticed that Jekyll had even become more religious. The doctor had always been a charitable man, but was suddenly more devoted to his prayers and attended church services. For two months, Jekyll seemed healthy and happy. Many people commented on how relaxed and at peace he looked. The dinner party that had been announced in the curious invitation was held on the 8th of January. Mr. Utterson and Dr.

不过是在城市里。关于他的残忍和邪恶行径的恶毒故事在每个街角、办公室和家庭里流传着。 一个比一个可怕。 厄特森认为这是一件特别残酷的案子。 但奇怪的是，一个人，丹弗斯爵士的死，却导致了另一个人精神的复苏。 杰基尔博士出来了。 他又见到了老朋友。他开始举办派对，参加社交活动。 厄特森还注意到，杰基尔甚至变得更加虔诚了。 医生一向是一个慈善的人，但突然间，他更专心于祈祷，去教堂做礼拜。 两个月来，杰基尔看起来健康快乐。 许多人评论说他看起来是多么的放松和平静。 在那份奇怪的请柬上宣布的宴会是在1月8日举行的。 厄特森先生和厄特森博士。

Lanyon were both guests. The two men noticed their host's happy face throughout the evening. He was clearly pleased to spend the evening with two of his oldest friends. Certainly he was remembering when the three had been the best of friends. Utterson felt a familiar happiness. He was confident that life was back on track. On the 12th of January, though—and again on the 14th—the door to Jekyll's home was closed to visitors. On both nights Utterson dropped by unannounced. Poole told him that the doctor wished to see no one. When he was rejected again on the 15th, Utterson began to worry. Jekyll was falling back into his old pattern of hiding. Utterson was reminded of the days when Hyde had control over his friend. It was much worse this time, though. It was unusual for Jekyll to cut himself off so completely. Utterson decided to visit Dr.

兰宁都是客人。这两个人整个晚上都注意到主人快乐的脸。 他显然很高兴能和两位老朋友共度良宵。 他肯定是在回忆他们三个曾经是最好的朋友的时候。 厄特森感到一种熟悉的幸福。 他相信生活已经回到了正轨。 然而，在1月12日，也是在1月14日，杰基尔家的门对来访者关闭了。 这两天夜里，厄特森都不请自来。 普尔告诉他，医生不想见任何人。 15日，厄特森再次遭到拒绝，他开始担心起来。 杰基尔又回到了他以前的躲藏模式。 厄特森想起了海德控制他朋友的日子。 不过，这次情况要糟糕得多。 对杰基尔来说，如此彻底地切断自己的联系是不寻常的。 厄特森决定去拜访约翰博士。

Lanyon. Perhaps the good doctor would have some advice. Utterson was admitted into Dr. Lanyon's study. He was shocked at what he found. Something awful had affected Lanyon's appearance. He was pale and sickly and looked at death's door. Lanyon looked like he had aged thirty years in the week since Utterson had last seen him. "My word, Lanyon," Utterson said as he stepped closer to his friend. He knelt beside the doctor's chair and took his hand. Utterson came here on a mission to save one friend. It shocked him to think he might have to worry about saving two. "Whatever could be wrong? Where did this sickness come from?" Lanyon shook his head. "No," he said. "I am not ill. I have received a terrible shock. It will be my end, though. My days are numbered."

Lanyon。也许这位好医生能给点建议。 厄特森被送进了医生的病房。 Lanyon的研究。他对自己的发现感到震惊。 某种可怕的东西影响了兰宁的外表。 他脸色苍白，体弱多病，眼看就要死了。 自从厄特森上次见到兰宁以来，他看上去一个星期内老了三十岁。 “说真的，兰宁。”厄特森边说边走近他的朋友。 他跪在医生的椅子旁，握住他的手。 厄特森来这里是为了救一个朋友。 想到自己可能要为拯救两个人而操心，他感到震惊。 “到底出了什么问题？”这种病是从哪里来的？”兰宁摇了摇头。 “不，”他说。“我没有病。 我受到了可怕的打击。 不过，这将是我的末日。 我的日子屈指可数了。”

"Jekyll is ill, too. Have you seen him?" Utterson asked. Lanyon's face changed and he held up a trembling hand. "I wish to see or hear no more of Dr. Jekyll," he said in a loud, unsteady voice. "I am quite done with him. He is dead to me, now." "Tut-tut," said Mr. Utterson. After a considerable pause, the lawyer asked if he could do anything. "We are three old friends," Utterson pleaded. "One can never replace an old and dear friend." "Nothing can be done," returned Lanyon. "Ask him yourself if you need further understanding." "He will not see me," said the lawyer. "I am not surprised," Lanyon said. "Some day, Utterson, after I am dead, you may come to understand some of this story. I cannot tell you. It is far too upsetting. In the meantime, if you would like to sit and talk

“杰基尔也病了。你见过他吗？”Utterson问道。 兰宁脸色一变，举起一只颤抖的手。 “我不愿再见到或听到他的任何消息。 杰基尔。”他用颤抖的声音大声说。 “我跟他完全没有关系了。 现在他对我来说已经死了。”“啧啧，”厄特森先生说。 过了相当长的一段时间，律师问他是否能做点什么。 “我们是三个老朋友，”厄特森恳求道。 “一个人永远无法取代一个老朋友。” “没办法，”兰宁回答。 “你自己问他是否需要进一步了解。” “他不会见我的，”律师说。 “我并不感到惊讶，”兰宁说。 “总有一天，厄特森，在我死后，你会明白这个故事的。 我不能告诉你。这太令人沮丧了。 与此同时，如果你愿意坐下来谈谈

about other subjects, then I would love you to stay. If you insist on discussing the case of Dr. Jekyll, then I must ask you to leave immediately." Utterson stayed with his friend. They talked of old times and friends in common, everyone except Dr. Jekyll. After a few hours, the lawyer said good-bye and left his friend alone.

谈别的事，那我希望你留下来。 如果你坚持要讨论医生的案子。 杰基尔，那么我必须请你马上离开。” 厄特森和他的朋友呆在一起。 他们谈起了过去的时光，谈起了共同的朋友。 变身怪医。几个小时后，律师说再见，离开了他的朋友。
