29 The Lost Diadem

CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE THE LOST DIADEM Neville— what the— how—?" But Neville had spotted Ron and Hermione, and with yells of delight was hugging them too. The longer Harry looked at Neville, the worse he appeared: One of his eyes was swollen yellow and purple, there were gouge marks on his face, and his general air of unkemptness suggested that he had been living rough. Nevertheless, his

第二十九章丢失的冠冕纳威——怎么——怎么——？”但纳威发现了罗恩和赫敏，他高兴地大叫着，也拥抱了他们。 哈利看纳威的时间越长，他的样子就越糟糕：他的一只眼睛肿得又黄又紫，脸上有几道凿痕，他那蓬头垢面的样子表明他一直生活得很艰苦。 尽管如此,他的

battered visage shone with happiness as he let go of Hermione and said again, "I knew you'd come! Kept telling Seamus it was a matter of time!" "Neville, what's happened to you?" "What? This?" Neville dismissed his injuries with a shake of the head. "This is nothing. Seamus is worse. You'll see. Shall we get going then? Oh," he turned to Aberforth, "Ab, there might be a couple more people on the way." "Couple more?" repeated Aberforth ominously. "What d'you mean, a couple more, Longbottom? There's a curfew and a Caterwauling Charm on the whole village!" "I know, that's why they'll be Apparating directly into the bar," said Neville. "Just send them down the passage when they get here, will you? Thanks a lot." Neville held out his hand to Hermione and helped her to climb up onto the mantelpiece and

他放开赫敏，又说：“我就知道你会来！我一直跟西莫说这只是时间问题！”“纳威，你出什么事了？”“什么? 这个吗?”纳威摇摇头，不以为然。 “这没什么。西莫更糟。 你会看到。我们可以走了吗？ 哦，”他转向阿不福思，“哎呀，说不定还有几个人要来呢。” “再来两个？”阿不福思不祥地重复道。 “你什么意思，再来两个，隆巴顿？” 全村实行宵禁，还施了啼叫咒！”“我知道，所以他们要直接幻影显形到酒吧里去。”纳威说。 “等他们来了，就让他们从走廊下去，好吗？” 非常感谢。”纳威向赫敏伸出手，扶她爬上壁炉台，然后

into the tunnel; Ron followed, then Neville. Harry addressed Aberforth. "I don't know how to thank you. You've saved our lives twice." "Look after 'em, then," said Aberforth gruffly. "I might not be able to save 'em a third time." Harry clambered up onto the mantelpiece and through the hole behind Ariana's portrait. There were smooth stone steps on the other side: It looked as though the passageway had been there for years. Brass lamps hung from the walls and the earthy floor was worn and smooth; as they walked, their shadows rippled, fanlike, across the wall. "How long's this been here?" Ron asked as they set off. "It isn't on the Marauder's Map, is it, Harry? I thought there were only seven passages in and out of school?" "They sealed off all of those before the start of the year," said Neville. "There's no chance of

进入隧道；罗恩跟在后面，然后是纳威。 哈利对阿不福思说。 “我不知道该怎么感谢你。 你救了我们两次。” “那就照顾他们吧。”阿不福思粗声粗气地说。 “我可能救不了他们第三次了。” 哈利爬上壁炉架，穿过阿利安娜画像后面的洞。 另一边是光滑的石阶，看起来这条通道已经存在很多年了。 墙上挂着几盏铜灯，泥土的地面磨得很光滑；他们走着走着，影子像扇子一样在墙上荡漾。 “这东西在这儿多久了？”他们出发时，罗恩问。 “活点地图上没有，是吗，哈利？” 我以为进出学校只有七条通道呢？”“开学前他们就把这些地方都封锁了。”纳威说。 “不可能

getting through any of them now, not with curses over the entrances and Death Eaters and dementors waiting at the exits." He started walking backward, beaming, drinking them in. "Never mind that stuff... Is it true? Did you break into Gringotts? Did you escape on a dragon? It's everywhere, everyone's talking about it, Terry Boot got beaten up by Carrow for yelling about it in the Great Hall at dinner!" "Yeah, it's true," said Harry. Neville laughed gleefully. "What did you do with the dragon?" "Released it into the wild," said Ron. "Hermione was all for keeping it as a pet—" "Don't exaggerate, Ron—" "But what have you been doing? People have been saying you've just been on the run, Harry, but I don't think so. I think you've been up to something."

现在一个也过不了，入口上有咒语，出口处有食死徒和摄魂怪等着。” 他开始向后走，喜气洋洋，把它们都喝了进去。 “别管那些东西……这是真的吗？ 你闯进古灵阁了吗？ 你是骑着龙逃走的吗？ 到处都是，每个人都在谈论它，特里·布特吃饭时在礼堂里大声嚷嚷，被卡罗打了一顿！”“是啊，这是真的。”哈利说。 纳威高兴地笑了。 “你对那条龙做了什么？”“把它放归野外。”罗恩说。 “赫敏完全赞成把它当宠物养——”“别夸大其词，罗恩——”“可你都干了些什么？ 人们都说你一直在逃亡，哈利，但我不这么认为。 我想你一定在搞什么鬼。”

"You're right," said Harry, "but tell us about Hogwarts, Neville, we haven't heard anything." "It's been... well, it's not really like Hogwarts anymore," said Neville, the smile fading from his face as he spoke. "Do you know about the Carrows?" "Those two Death Eaters who teach here?" "They do more than teach," said Neville. "They're in charge of all discipline. They like punishment, the Carrows." "Like Umbridge?" "Nah, they make her look tame. The other teachers are all supposed to refer us to the Carrows if we do anything wrong. They don't, though, if they can avoid it. You can tell they all hate them as much as we do. "Amycus, the bloke, he teaches what used to be Defense Against the Dark Arts, except now it's just the Dark Arts. We're supposed to practice the

“你说得对，”哈利说，“跟我们说说霍格沃茨吧，纳威，我们什么也没听到。” “这是……嗯，这里已经不像霍格沃茨了。”纳威说，脸上的笑容渐渐消失了。 “你知道卡罗夫妇的事吗？”“那两个在这里教书的食死徒？”“他们不仅教书。”纳威说。 “他们负责所有的纪律。 卡罗夫妇喜欢惩罚。” “乌姆里奇吗?”“不，它们让她看起来很温顺。 如果我们做错了什么，其他老师都应该把我们介绍给卡罗夫妇。 不过，如果他们能避免的话，他们就不会这么做。 你可以看出他们和我们一样讨厌他们。 “阿米库斯，那个家伙，他以前教黑魔法防御术，不过现在只教黑魔法了。 我们应该练习

Cruciatus Curse on people who've earned detentions—" "What?" Harry, Ron, and Hermione's united voices echoed up and down the passage. "Yeah," said Neville. "That's how I got this one," he pointed at a particularly deep gash in his cheek, "I refused to do it. Some people are into it, though; Crabbe and Goyle love it. First time they've ever been top in anything, I expect. "Alecto, Amycus's sister, teaches Muggle Studies, which is compulsory for everyone. We've all got to listen to her explain how Muggles are like animals, stupid and dirty, and how they drove wizards into hiding by being vicious toward them, and how the natural order is being reestablished. I got this one," he indicated another slash to his face, "for asking her how much Muggle blood she and her brother have got."

钻心咒施在被关禁闭的人身上——”“什么？”哈利、罗恩和赫敏异口同声的声音在走廊里回荡。 “是啊。”纳威说。“我就是这样得到这个的，”他指着脸颊上一道特别深的伤口，“我拒绝这么做。 不过，有些人喜欢它；克拉布和高尔很喜欢。 我想这是他们第一次在任何项目上名列前茅。 “阿莱克托，阿米库斯的妹妹，教麻瓜研究，这门课是每个人的必修课。 我们都得听她解释麻瓜是如何像动物一样，又蠢又脏，他们如何对巫师恶毒，把巫师逼得躲起来，还有自然秩序是如何重新建立起来的。 这是我的，”他指着脸上的另一道划痕，“因为我问她和她哥哥有多少麻瓜血统。”
