21 Hermione’s Secret

– CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE – Hermione's Secret 'Shocking business… shocking… miracle none of them died… never heard the like… by thunder, it was lucky you were there, Snape…' 'Thank you, Minister.' 'Order of Merlin, Second Class, I'd say. First Class, if I can wangle it!' 'Thank you very much indeed, Minister.' 'Nasty cut you've got there… Black's work, I suppose?' 'As a matter of fact, it was Potter, Weasley and Granger, Minister…' 'No!'

“令人震惊的事情……令人震惊的事情……奇迹没有一个人死……从来没有听到过这样的事情……天哪，幸亏你在场，斯内普……”“我想是梅林二级爵士。” 头等舱，如果我能弄到的话！”“真的非常感谢您，部长。“你身上的伤口很难看……我想是布莱克干的吧？”“事实上，是波特、韦斯莱和格兰杰，部长……”

'Black had bewitched them, I saw it immediately. A Confundus Charm, to judge by their behaviour. They seemed to think there was a possibility he was innocent. They weren't responsible for their actions. On the other hand, their interference might have permitted Black to escape… they obviously thought they were going to catch Black single-handed. They've got away with a great deal before now… I'm afraid it's given them a rather high opinion of themselves… and of course Potter has always been allowed an extraordinary amount of licence by the Headmaster –' 'Ah, well, Snape… Harry Potter, you know… we've all got a bit of a blind spot where he's concerned.' 'And yet – is it good for him to be given so much special treatment? Personally I try to treat him like any other student. And any other student would be suspended – at the very least – for leading his friends into such danger. Consider, Minister: against all school rules – after all the precautions put in place for his protection – out of

“布莱克对他们施了魔法，我马上就看出来了。 从他们的行为来看，是混淆咒。 他们似乎认为他有可能是无辜的。 他们不必为自己的行为负责。 另一方面，他们的干涉可能让布莱克逃脱了……他们显然以为自己能一个人抓住布莱克。 “啊，好吧，斯内普……哈利·波特，你知道的……我们在涉及他的事情上都有一点盲点。”“可是——给他这么特别的待遇对他有好处吗？” 就我个人而言，我尽量像对待其他学生一样对待他。 其他学生至少会因为把朋友带入这样的危险境地而被停学。 考虑一下吧，部长：违反了所有的校规——在采取了所有保护他的预防措施之后——他还是离开了

He felt very groggy. The words he was hearing seemed to be travelling very slowly from his ears to his brain, so that it was difficult to understand. His limbs felt like lead; his eyelids too heavy to lift he wanted to lie here, on this comfortable bed, for ever 'What amazes me most is the behaviour of the Dementors you've really no idea what made them retreat, Snape?' 'No, Minister. By the time I had come round they were heading back to their positions at the entrances 'Extraordinary. And yet Black, and Harry, and the girl 'All unconscious by the time I reached them. I bound and gagged Black, naturally, conjured

“好吧，好吧，我们等着瞧吧，斯内普，我们等着瞧吧，这孩子无疑是个傻瓜。”哈利躺在那里听着，眼睛紧紧地闭着。 他感到昏昏沉沉。他听到的话语似乎从耳朵传到大脑的速度很慢，所以很难理解。 他的四肢像铅一样；他的眼皮沉得抬不起来，他想永远躺在这里，躺在这张舒适的床上。“最让我吃惊的是摄魂怪的行为——你真的不知道是什么让它们撤退的，斯内普？””“不，部长。 等我回过神来的时候，他们已经回到了入口处的位置。 可是布莱克、哈利和那个女孩……我赶到他们身边时，他们都不省人事了。 我把布莱克绑起来，塞住他的嘴，自然地，变了魔法

stretchers and brought them all straight back to the castle.' There was a pause. Harry's brain seemed to be moving a little faster, and as it did, a gnawing sensation grew in the pit of his stomach He opened his eyes. Everything was slightly blurred. Somebody had removed his glasses. He was lying in the dark hospital wing. At the very end of the ward, he could make out Madam Pomfrey with her back to him, bending over a bed. Harry squinted. Ron's red hair was visible beneath Madam Pomfrey's arm. Harry moved his head over on the pillow. In the bed to his right lay Hermione. Moonlight was falling across her bed. Her eyes were open, too. She looked petrified, and when she saw that Harry was awake, pressed a finger to her lips, then pointed to the hospital-wing door. It was ajar, and the voices of Cornelius Fudge and Snape were coming through it from the corridor outside. Madam Pomfrey now came walking briskly up the dark ward to Harry's bed. ikcjeo. He turned to look at

然后用担架把他们全部抬回城堡。”一阵沉默。 哈利的脑子好像转得快了一点，就在这时，他的胃里产生了一种咬人的感觉。他睁开眼睛。 一切都有点模糊。 有人摘了他的眼镜。 他躺在黑暗的医院病房里。 在病房的尽头，他可以看到庞弗雷夫人背对着他，俯在一张床上。 哈利眯起了双眼。罗恩的红头发从庞弗雷夫人的胳膊下面露出来。 哈利把头靠在枕头上。 赫敏躺在他右边的床上。 月光洒在她的床上。 她的眼睛也睁着。她看上去吓呆了，看到哈利醒了，她把一根手指放在嘴唇上，然后指着医院翼楼的门。 门半开着，康奈利·福吉和斯内普的声音从外面的走廊里传了进来。 庞弗雷夫人轻快地走过黑暗的病房，来到哈利的床边。 他转过身去看

her. She was carrying the largest block of chocolate he had ever seen in his life. It looked like a small boulder. 'Ah, you're awake!' she said briskly. She placed the chocolate on Harry's bedside table and began breaking it apart with a small hammer. 'How's Ron?' said Harry and Hermione together. 'He'll live,' said Madam Pomfrey grimly. 'As for you two you'll be staying here until I'm satisfied you're Potter, what do you think you're doing?' Harry was sitting up, putting his glasses back on and picking up his wand. 'I need to see the Headmaster,' he said. 'Potter,' said Madam Pomfrey soothingly, 'it's all right. They've got Black. He's locked away upstairs. The Dementors will be performing the Kiss any moment now 'WHAT?' Harry jumped up out of bed; Hermione had done the same. But his shout had been heard in the

她的。她手里拿着一块他有生以来见过的最大的巧克力。 它看起来像一块小石头。 “啊，你醒了！”她轻快地说。 她把巧克力放在哈利的床头柜上，开始用一把小锤子把它敲碎。 ”罗恩怎么样?哈利和赫敏同时问。 “他会活下来的。”庞弗雷夫人严肃地说。 “至于你们两个，你们要一直待在这里，直到我对你们是波特感到满意为止，你们以为你们在干什么？”哈利坐了起来，戴上眼镜，拿起魔杖。 “我要见校长。”他说。 “波特，”庞弗雷夫人安慰他说，“没关系。 他们抓住了布莱克。他被锁在楼上了。 摄魂怪随时都可能吻你。“什么？”哈利从床上跳起来。赫敏也这样做了。 但他的喊声被人听见了

corridor outside; next second, Cornelius Fudge and Snape had entered the ward. 'Harry, Harry, what's this?' said Fudge, looking agitated. 'You should be in bed has he had any chocolate?' he asked Madam Pomfrey anxiously. 'Minister, listen!' Harry said. 'Sirius Black's innocent! Peter Pettigrew faked his own death! We saw him tonight! You can't let the Dementors do that thing to Sirius, he's But Fudge was shaking his head with a small smile on his face. 'Harry, Harry, you're very confused, you've been through a dreadful ordeal, lie back down, now, we've got everything under control 'YOU HAVEN'T!' Harry yelled. 'YOU'VE GOT THE WRONG MAN!' 'Minister, listen, please,' Hermione said; she had hurried to Harry's side and was gazing imploringly into Fudge's face. 'I saw him, too. It was Ron's rat, he's an Animagus, Pettigrew, I mean, and

走廊外;下一秒钟，康奈利和斯内普走进了病房。 “哈利，哈利，这是什么？”福吉说，显得很不安。 “你应该躺在床上，他吃巧克力了吗？”他焦急地问庞弗雷夫人。 “部长,听!”哈利说。 “小天狼星布莱克是无辜的！”小矮星彼得伪造了自己的死亡！我们今晚看到他了！你不能让摄魂怪那样对待小天狼星，他……”福吉摇着头，脸上挂着一丝微笑。 “哈利，哈利，你很困惑，你经历了一场可怕的折磨，躺回去吧，现在一切都在我们的控制之中。你没有！”哈利喊道。 “你抓错人了！”“部长，请听我说。”赫敏说。她急忙跑到哈利身边，恳求地望着福吉的脸。 “我也看见他了。那是罗恩的老鼠，他是阿尼马格斯，我是说小矮星彼得
