„, God, Mafalda, actuallywhat happened, whoannoyedherto be angry?”Rufushavinghalf ofdrinkplacedonowndesk, looks up the office that broadcasts the sound, asks the Department Headassistant.
“哦,天啊,马法尔达,究竟发生什么事了,谁惹她生气了?”鲁弗斯把喝了一半的饮料放在自己的办公桌上,抬头望着传来声音的办公室,开口询问司长的助手。„Somepeoplesent a letter/believes.”Mafaldalooked at the gate of office, saidin a low voice,„then, turned intothis.”
“有人寄了封信。”马法尔达望了眼办公室的门,低声道,“然后,就变成这样了。”UnlikeRufus, Mafaldaa littledreadsownboss, discussedhermattereach time, especiallywill be careful, so as to avoid being lost the presentworkbyoneself.
与鲁弗斯不同,马法尔达有点畏惧自己的上司,每次谈论起她的事,都会格外小心,免得让自己丢掉现在的工作。„A letter/believes?”Rufusdid not understandvery much, buthas not continuedto ask,healsoknows the personality of ownboss.
“一封信?”鲁弗斯很不理解,但也没有继续多问,他也知道自己上司的性格。Yes, a letter/believes, torn into shredsletter/believes.
是的,一封信,一封已经被撕碎的信。Improper Use of Magic OfficeDepartment Headis never angry, she felt threatened, butthreatensherpersonisHector Dagworth.禁止滥用魔法办公室的司长从未如此愤怒过,她感觉被人威胁了,而威胁她的人就是赫托克·达格沃斯。Sheis not strangetothisname.
她对这名字一点都不陌生。Severaldays ago, Hector Dagworthhad comeonetime, butwas rejectedbyhervery muchsimply.
几天前,赫托克·达格沃斯就曾经来过一次,但被她很干脆的拒绝了。Thistime, Hectorhas not come, butmailed a letter/believestoher, the meaning on letter/believesprobablyis: Ifyoudo not givehimto apologize, that can only apologizebyme, passesDaily Prophet.
这一次,赫托克没来,但给她寄了封信,信上的意思大概就是:如果你不给他道歉,那就只能由我去道歉了,通过预言家日报。Hector makes one write the draft that the apologyused, sentin passingin the envelope.赫托克连道歉用的稿子都让人写好了,也附带在信封里寄过来。Even if not read the draft, shestillknows that letsHector DagworthsuchPotions MasterinDaily Prophetfor the troubleapology that oneselfannoy, will lead towhatconsequence.
就算不看稿子,她也知道让赫托克·达格沃斯这样的魔药大师在预言家日报里为自己惹出来的麻烦道歉,会引起什么后果。No onewill feelHector Dagworthto make a fuss over a trifling matter, theythink why the Ministry of Magic'smistake, needsthisPotions Masterto apologize.
没人会觉得赫托克·达格沃斯小题大做,他们会认为为什么魔法部的失误,需要这位魔药大师道歉。Then, this/shouldshehad bad luck.
然后,就该她倒霉了。MostDreadfulsituationisshediscards the presentposition, manypeopleare staring atherposition, intheseordinary dayswickedjunctioncolleague, will definitely also hit a person when he is downto deliverher a regulation.
最糟糕的情况就是她丢掉自己现在的职位,很多人都在盯着她的位置呢,还有那些平日里恶交的同事,肯定也会落井下石送她一程。Apology, thisis the matter that at presentcandoonly.
道歉,这是目前唯一能够做的事。LetHector Dagworthbring back the goldenmembership cardsmoothly, otherwise...... whoknows that hewill also doto have an accident.
让赫托克·达格沃斯顺利拿回黄金会员卡,否则……谁知道他还会做出什么事。Whymatterwill turn intolike this, reallymadeone unable to understand.
事情为什么会变成这样子,实在令人无法理解呢。
The issueneedsto be solved.
问题还是需要解决。Hector is the fellow who wantshimto apologizewho?赫托克要他道歉的家伙是谁呢?„Mafalda.”
“马法尔达。”Improper Use of Magic OfficeDepartment Headhad forgotten that is actually whoannoystroublesometooneselfthese, butsheknows that oneselfassistantknows, Mafalda is also a small number ofinsiders.禁止滥用魔法办公室的司长早就忘记究竟是谁给自己惹来这些麻烦的,但她知道自己的助手知道,马法尔达也是少数的知情人士。Finally, after Mafaldasearcharchive file, is written the apologybyherpersonally. Actually, was writtenbyownassistantwas good, but...... has not done thisfinally, so as to avoidannoysanythingto troubleagain.
最后,马法尔达查找档案文件后,由她亲自写封道歉信。其实,让自己的助手代写就行了,但……最后还是没这样做,免得再惹出什么麻烦。CansitImproper Use of Magic OfficeDepartment Head, person who howpossibly does not have the brain?
能够坐上禁止滥用魔法办公室的司长,怎么可能是个没脑子的人呢?Thismatter, enduredon the past, endured...... quill pen on handare curved.
这点事,忍一忍就过去了,忍一忍……手上的羽毛笔弯了。

……In the weekendin the afternoon, Albertleavesfrom the Rowenaoffice, Professor Smithexcels at the lots, two peoplecommon interestshavemany.
周末下午,艾伯特从罗文纳的办公室里离开,史密斯教授擅长很多东西,两人的共同话题有不少。both sides the exchangeonlearningmake the skillexperience of Albertsoar.
双方在学术上的交流沟通让艾伯特的技能经验飞涨。Justreturned to the lounge, had the male student of higher gradesto make noiseto stop by calling outAlbert, andgavehim a letter/believes, on the envelopeonly then the name of addressee, without the name of sender, was strange, butW on Albertinseeingbeeswax, knewthisletter/believesfromMinistry of Magic.
刚返回休息室,有个高年级的男生出声叫住艾伯特,并且将一封信递给他,信封上只有收信人的名字,却没有寄信人的名字,非常奇怪,但艾伯特在看到蜂蜡上的W,就知道这封信来自魔法部。Alberthad guessed correctly that the content in letter/believes, thendisassembled the letter/believesat the scene.艾伯特已经猜到信里的内容了,便当场把信拆开。Mr. Anderson:安德森先生:Wereceive the letter of Mr.Hector......
我们接到赫托克先生的来信……Albertsweptonefast, is completely the words of falseshirking, the so-calledapologyabsolutelydoes not have the sincerity, butAlberthad not counted on that the opposite partywill really apologize.艾伯特飞快扫了一眼,全部都是虚伪的推脱之词,所谓的道歉也完全没有诚意,但艾伯特也没有指望对方会真的道歉。Those wholetAlbertcompareto careis the name of sender, Ministry of MagicImproper Use of Magic OfficeDepartment Head( director) Dolores Umbridge.
让艾伯特比较在意的是寄信人的名字,魔法部禁止滥用魔法司司长(主任)多洛雷斯·乌姆里奇。„Dolores Umbridge?”Albertlooks at the name of sender, repeatedin a soft voice.
“多洛雷斯·乌姆里奇?”艾伯特看着寄信人的名字,轻声重复了一遍。Then, Albertfrownsslightly, mutters: „Umbridge? Probablya littleimpression, Ministry of Magic? Umbridge...... Hogwartsprofessor...... Defence Against the Dark Arts...... pink...... toad...... HogwartsHigh Inquisitor!”
然后,艾伯特不由微微皱起了眉头,喃喃道:“乌姆里奇?好像有点印象,魔法部?乌姆里奇……霍格沃茨教授……黑魔法防御……粉红色……癞蛤蟆……霍格沃茨高级调查官!”
„,
“哦,Originallyisthatfellow! ” Albertawakenssuddenly, whofinallyrememberedthisfellowis. ThatinDefence Against the Dark Artsprofessor that infifthenters the stage? FellowunexpectedlyImproper Use of Magic OfficeDepartment Head.
原来是那家伙啊!”艾伯特恍然醒悟,终于想起这家伙是谁了。那个在第五部里出场的黑魔法防御教授?没想到,那家伙居然还是禁止滥用魔法司司长。At this moment, Albertunderstands why Hectorwill so dislikethiswoman.
这一刻,艾伯特明白赫托克为什么会如此讨厌这个女人了。
The uglywoman'snameis not excessive!
丑女人的称呼一点都不过分呢!In the Albertscatteredmemory, Umbridgeis a woman who thinks oneself infallible, persistently unreasonably, control to break through the horizon.
在艾伯特零散的记忆里,乌姆里奇是个自以为是、蛮不讲理、控制欲突破天际的女人。Counted on that shedid apologize?
指望她道歉?Reallya littledifficulty, but alsoreallyfeels embarrassedHector, tobring backthatgoldenmembership card, he is not easy.
实在有点难度,还真是为难赫托克,为了拿回那张黄金会员卡,他也是蛮不容易的。Albertinspected an envelope, in the note of thatwarning letterwith the memorycomparesit, shouldnot bethatfellownamedMafalda Hopkirkwrites.艾伯特检查了一下信封,将它与记忆中那封警告信的笔记进行对比,应该不是那个叫马法尔达·霍普柯克的家伙写的。Actually, a clue.
其实,还有一个线索。
The handwriting on parchmentis very deep, the person of writing a letteras ifwishes one couldto poke a hole above.
羊皮纸上的字迹很深,写信的人似乎恨不得在上面戳出一个窟窿。Thisenoughexplained, the writing a letterpersonwas excitedat that time.
这就足够说明,写信人当时心情很激动。IfAlbertknowsUmbridgetowritethisletter/believes, compensatesfivequill pen, will not only describewith the excitementmerely. It looks like inAlbert, if the opposite partycanplanthesedetails, he can only saythismatterthis.
如果艾伯特知道乌姆里奇为了写这封信,赔上五把羽毛笔,就不会仅仅只用激动来形容了。在艾伯特看来,如果对方能够把这些细节都算计进去,他只能说这事就这样了。However, suchis very likely.
然而,这样的可能性很小。However, after knowingDolores UmbridgeisMinistry of MagicImproper Use of Magic OfficeDepartment Head, Albertis not difficultto understand why shewill makeDementorattackHarry.
不过,知晓多洛雷斯·乌姆里奇是魔法部禁止滥用魔法司的司长后,艾伯特就不难理解她为什么会让摄魂怪去袭击哈利了。After all, asImproper Use of Magic OfficeDepartment Head, she is very naturally clearto the relevant law.
毕竟,作为禁止滥用魔法司的司长,她自然对相关法律很清楚。„What's wrong, whoseletter/believes?”Lee Jordanaskedcuriously.
“怎么了,谁的信呢?”李·乔丹好奇地问。„Ministry of Magic, previousthatmatter, solution.”Albertfolds the letter/believes, the stopperreturns to ownlong gownpocket, „do youprepare?”
“魔法部,上次那件事,解决了。”艾伯特把信折起来,塞回自己的长袍口袋里,“你准备去哪儿?”„library, together?”
“图书馆,一起?”„Ok, waits formy, justprepares the librarycheckthing.”Albertreturns to the dormitoryto take the thing.
“行,等我一下,刚好准备去图书馆查点东西。”艾伯特返回宿舍拿东西。„Checks the thing?”Lee Jordanhearswordsaidsuddenly: „Riddle?”
“查东西?”李·乔丹闻言恍然道:“谜语吗?”„Whatriddle?”
“什么谜语?”„Don't youknowunexpectedly?”Lee Jordanverysurprisedlooks atShanna.
“你居然不知道?”李·乔丹很惊奇的看着珊娜。„Whatknows?” A Shannafaceaskedconfusedly.
“知道什么?”珊娜一脸迷茫地问道。„Albert and Katherinegamblingmakes!”Lee Jordanexplainedwith a smile: „I heard that theymake a bet the replytruth, Ialsolistened toAlbertandKatherinein the morningsaid, the time estimationin the middle ten days, lookedwhocanrespond a 100riddle.”
“艾伯特与卡特里娜的赌约啊!”李·乔丹笑着解释道:“听说,他们打赌回答谜底,我早上还听艾伯特与卡特里娜说,时间估计在中旬,看谁能够答对一百道谜语。”„100riddle?”Shannastares the bigeye, the riddleactually is not too to her difficult, butmustrespond a 100riddle, was not an easymatter.
“一百道谜语?”珊娜不由瞪大眼睛,谜语对她来说其实也不算太难,但要答对一百道谜语,就不是一件容易的事了。Without a doubt, thisis the contest between twotalents.
毫无疑问,这是两个天才之间的较量。„Youthink that whowill win?”Lee JordanaskedShanna.
“你认为谁会赢?”李·乔丹问珊娜。„Alsowithsaying, naturallyisAlbert.”Shannasaidnaturally,„thatfellowis the truetalent, howto possibly lose toothers.”
“还用说,当然是艾伯特。”珊娜理所当然道,“那家伙可是真正的天才,怎么可能会输给别人呢。”
