35 Veritaserum

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE Veritaserum Harry felt himself slam flat into the ground; his face was pressed into grass; the smell of it filled his nostrils. He had closed his eyes while the Portkey transported him, and he kept them closed now. He did not move. All the breath seemed to have been knocked out of him; his head was swimming so badly he felt as though the ground beneath him was swaying like the deck of a ship. To hold himself steady, he tightened his hold on the two things he was still clutching–the smooth, cold handle of the Triwizard Cup, and Cedric's body. He felt as though he would slide away into the blackness gathering at the edges of his brain if he let go of either of them. Shock and exhaustion

第三十五章吐真剂哈利感到自己重重地摔在地上。他的脸被压在草丛里；它的气味充满了他的鼻孔。 门钥匙传送他的时候，他一直闭着眼睛，现在也一直闭着。 他没有动。他似乎喘不过气来；他的头游得很厉害，他觉得脚下的地面像船的甲板一样摇晃着。 为了稳住自己，他紧紧抓住仍然攥在手里的两样东西——光滑、冰冷的三强杯把手和塞德里克的尸体。 他觉得，如果他放开其中任何一个，他就会滑入积聚在他大脑边缘的黑暗中。 震惊和疲惫

kept him on the ground, breathing in the smell of the grass, waiting… waiting for someone to do something… something to happen… and all the while, his scar burnt dully on his forehead… A torrent of sound deafened and confused him, there were voices everywhere, footsteps, screams… he remained where he was, his face screwed up against the noise, as though it was a nightmare that would pass… Then a pair of hands seized him roughly and turned him over. 'Harry! Harry!' He opened his eyes. He was looking up at the starry sky, and Albus Dumbledore was crouched over him. The dark shadows of a crowd of people pressed in around them, pushing nearer; Harry felt the ground beneath his head reverberating with their footsteps. He had come back to the edge of the maze. He could see the stands rising above him, the shapes of people moving in them, the stars above.

他躺在地上，呼吸着青草的气味，等待着……等待着有人来做点什么……等待着什么事情发生……与此同时，他额头上的伤疤隐隐地灼痛着……一阵声音把他震聋了，使他迷糊了，到处都是声音，脚步声，尖叫声……他呆在原地，他的脸紧贴着噪音，仿佛这是一场即将过去的噩梦……然后，一双手粗暴地抓住了他，把他翻了个身。 “哈利!哈利!”他睁开眼睛。 他抬头望着繁星点点的天空，阿不思·邓布利多蹲在他身边。 一群人的黑影包围着他们，越挤越近；哈利感到头下的地面随着他们的脚步声在震动。 他回到了迷宫的边缘。 他可以看到看台在他的头顶升起，人们在看台上走动的身影，以及头顶上的星星。

Harry let go of the Cup, but he clutched Cedric to him even more tightly. He raised his free hand and seized Dumbledore's wrist, while Dumbledore's face swam in and out of focus. 'He's back,' Harry whispered. 'He's back. Voldemort.' 'What's going on? What's happened?' The face of Cornelius Fudge appeared upsidedown over Harry; it looked white, appalled. 'My God–Diggory!' it whispered. 'Dumbledore–he's dead!' The words were repeated, the shadowy figures pressing in on them gasped it to those around them… and then others shouted it–screeched it–into the night–'He's dead!' 'He's dead!'' Cedric Diggory! Dead!' 'Harry, let go of him,' he heard Fudge's voice say, and he felt fingers trying to prise him from Cedric's limp body, but Harry wouldn't let him go. Then Dumbledore's face, which was still blurred and misted, came closer. 'Harry, you can't

哈利放开了奖杯，但他把塞德里克抓得更紧了。 他举起那只空着的手，抓住邓布利多的手腕，邓布利多的脸忽隐忽现。 “他回来了。”哈利小声说。 “他回来了。伏地魔。“出什么事了？” 发生了什么事?”康奈利·福吉的脸倒挂在哈利身上。它脸色苍白，惊恐万分。 “我God-Diggory !它低声说。 “Dumbledore-he死了!”这句话被重复了一遍，那些影子挤到他们身边，向周围的人喘着气说……然后其他人喊道——尖叫着——冲进黑夜——“他死了！“他死了！”“塞德里克·迪戈里！”死了!“哈利，放开他。”他听见福吉的声音说，他感到有手指想把他从塞德里克软弱无力的身体里拽出来，但哈利不肯放手。 这时邓布利多的脸靠得更近了，那张脸仍然模糊不清。 “哈利，你不能

help him now. It's over. Let go.' 'He wanted me to bring him back,' Harry muttered–it seemed important to explain this. 'He wanted me to bring him back to his parents…' 'That's right, Harry… just let go, now…' Dumbledore bent down and, with extraordinary strength for a man so old and thin, raised Harry from the ground, and set him on his feet. Harry swayed. His head was pounding. His injured leg would no longer support his weight. The crowd around them jostled, fighting to get closer, pressing darkly in on him–'What's happened?' 'What's wrong with him?' 'Diggory's dead!' 'He'll need to go to the hospital wing!' Fudge was saying loudly. 'He's ill, he's injured–Dumbledore, Diggory's parents, they're here, they're in the stands…' 'I'll take Harry, Dumbledore, I'll take him–' 'No, I would prefer–' 'Dumbledore, Amos Diggory's running… he's coming over… don't you think you should tell

现在就帮帮他。这是结束了。放手。“他想让我把他带回来。”哈利嘟囔着——解释一下似乎很重要。 “对了，哈利……现在放手吧……”邓布利多弯下腰，以对一个又老又瘦的人来说异乎寻常的力量，把哈利从地上扶起来。 哈利动摇。他的头砰砰直响。 他受伤的腿再也支撑不住他的体重了。 他们周围的人群挤来挤去，想挤得更近，阴沉沉地向他挤来——“发生了什么事？”“他怎么了？”“迪戈里死了！”“他需要去医院！”福吉大声说。 “他病了，他受伤了——邓布利多，迪戈里的父母，他们在这里，他们在看台上……”“我带哈利去，邓布利多，我带他去——”“不，我宁愿——”“邓布利多，阿莫斯·迪戈里在跑步……他过来了……你不觉得应该告诉别人吗？

him–before he sees–?' 'Harry, stay here–' Girls were screaming, sobbing hysterically… the scene flickered oddly before Harry's eyes… 'It's all right, son, I've got you… come on… hospital wing…' 'Dumbledore said stay,' said Harry thickly, the pounding in his scar making him feel as though he was about to throw up; his vision was blurring worse than ever. 'You need to lie down… come on, now…' Someone larger and stronger than Harry was, was half pulling, half carrying him through the frightened crowd; Harry heard them gasping, screaming and shouting as the man supporting him pushed a path through them, taking him back to the castle. Across the lawn, past the lake and the Durmstrang ship; Harry heard nothing but the heavy breathing of the man helping him walk. 'What happened, Harry?' the man asked at last, as he lifted Harry up the stone steps. Clunk. Clunk. Clunk. It was Mad-Eye Moody.

他——在他看见之前——？“哈利，待在这儿——”女孩们尖叫着，歇斯底里地抽泣着……那一幕在哈利眼前奇怪地闪过……“没事的，孩子，我有你……走吧……医院病房……”“邓布利多说别动，”哈利喃喃地说，伤疤的捶打使他觉得自己好像要吐出来了。他的视力比以前更模糊了。 一个比哈利更大更壮的人一半拉着他，一半抱着他穿过受惊的人群。哈利听见他们在喘气、尖叫、喊叫，那个扶着他的人从他们中间推开一条路，把他带回了城堡。 穿过草坪，穿过湖和德姆斯特朗的船；哈利只听见扶他走路的那个人沉重的呼吸声。 “发生什么事了，哈利？”那人抱着哈利走上石阶，最后问道。 发出咚咚的声音。发出咚咚的声音。发出咚咚的声音。是疯眼汉穆迪。

'Cup was a Portkey,' said Harry, as they crossed the Entrance Hall. 'Took me and Cedric to a graveyard… and Voldemort was there… Lord Voldemort…' Clunk. Clunk. Clunk. Up the marble stairs… 'The Dark Lord was there? What happened then?' 'Killed Cedric… they killed Cedric…' 'And then?' Clunk. Clunk. Clunk. Along the corridor… 'Made a potion… got his body back…' 'The Dark Lord got his body back? He's returned?' 'And the Death Eaters came… and then we duelled…' 'You duelled with the Dark Lord?' 'Got away… my wand… did something funny… I saw my mum and dad… they came out of his wand…' 'In here, Harry… in here, and sit down… you'll be all right now… drink this…'

“杯子是门钥匙。”他们穿过门厅时，哈利说。 “把我和塞德里克带到一块墓地……伏地魔也在那里……伏地魔大人……” 发出咚咚的声音。发出咚咚的声音。“黑魔王在那儿？” 然后发生了什么？“杀了塞德里克……他们杀了塞德里克……”发出咚咚的声音。 发出咚咚的声音。发出咚咚的声音。“黑魔王把他的身体弄回来了？” 他回来了吗?“然后食死徒来了……然后我们决斗了……”“我逃走了……我的魔杖……做了一件奇怪的事……我看见我妈妈和爸爸……他们从他的魔杖里出来了……”
