„Can come? We gave back to you to keep Shredded Potato Pancakes.” “要来点吗？我们还给你留了份土豆丝煎饼。” The clear opening the door sound resounds in the dormitory suddenly, originally enjoys the midnight snack, Fred, George and Lee Jordan that simultaneously while reckless Kan chatted turned head to look in the direction that the sound conveyed, has not forgotten to call Albert to come to eat the thing with a smile together. 清脆的开门声陡然在宿舍里响起,原本一边享用夜宵,一边胡侃闲聊的弗雷德、乔治与李·乔丹齐齐扭头朝声音传来的方向望去,还不忘笑着招呼艾伯特过来一起吃东西。 But, why does not know, three people of speaking voices gradually reduce, in the dormitory does not know when is filling a low atmospheric pressure that made one not gasp for breath, making three people feel that suppressed to become alarmed at heart. 但,不知道为何,三人的说话声逐渐降低,宿舍里不知何时弥漫着一股令人喘不过气的低气压,让三人感觉心里憋着慌。 Notices the Albert slightly gloomy expression, the George exploratory nature asks: „You are good!” 注意到艾伯特略微阴沉的表情,乔治试探性问道:“你还好吧！” „Un.” “嗯。” Albert deeply inspires, depresses the innermost feelings agitated mood, there hugs to squat looks at three people of having a night-time snack Tom, light to rub several mild-mannered cat wools. 艾伯特深吸一口气,压下内心烦躁的情绪,抱起蹲那儿看着三人吃夜宵的汤姆,轻撸了几下柔顺的猫毛。 Three people look at each other in blank dismay, may I ask what happened. 三人面面相觑,都不敢问发生什么事。 They only know that Albert hides in «Book of Origins», uses Two-way mirror to contact somebody secretly, but the low atmospheric pressure of expression and body from Albert face is not difficult to guess correctly that this exchange is not happy. 他们只知道艾伯特躲在《起源之书》里,使用双面镜偷偷联络某人,但从艾伯特脸上的表情与身上的低气压不难猜到这次交流并不愉快。 „Can come? The flavor is good, I also made bottle of ketchup.” Fred takes out the midnight snack that Dobby helps them prepare tonight from the Albert specially-made heat preservation box, puts in front of the tray Albert. “要来点吗？味道还不错,我还弄了瓶番茄酱。”弗雷德从艾伯特特制的保温盒里取出多比今晚帮他们准备的夜宵,将盘子放到艾伯特面前。 „Does not have the appetite, you eat!” “没胃口,你们自己吃吧！” Albert pushes the tray, puts out a hand to trace the Tom soft belly, is thinking the matter that had a moment ago, the mood on worse, he thought oneself probably needs the comfort of Izabel. 艾伯特把盘子推回去,又伸手摸了摸汤姆软软的肚皮,想着刚才发生的事,心情就更糟糕了,他觉得自己可能需要伊泽贝尔的安慰。 „Or comes to order the candy, could make you the mood good.” George scratched the hand with the handkerchief, takes out one bottle of magic candies to place the Albert front from the cabinet. This increased the Elixir to Induce Euphoria candy, can make the user maintain the happy mood temporarily. “要不来点糖果,也许能让伱的心情好点。”乔治用手帕擦了擦手,从柜子里取出一瓶魔法糖果放在艾伯特的面前。这是添加了欢欣剂的糖果,能够让使用者暂时保持愉快的心情。 „Does not use.” “不用。” Albert shakes the head, without planning to use Elixir to Induce Euphoria to relax the Dreadful mood. 艾伯特摇头,没打算使用欢欣剂来舒缓自己糟糕的心情。 He continues the to rub cat. 他继续撸猫。 Is detected probably the mood of master is not specially good, Tom has not revolted, the little darling lies there to Albert to rub. 大概是察觉到主人的心情不是特别好,汤姆也没反抗,乖乖趴在那儿任由艾伯特撸。 Naturally, possibly purely is because Tom is disinclined, or enjoys by the process of person to rub very much. 当然,也可能纯粹是因为汤姆懒得动,或者很享受被人撸的过程。 „You did not mind that we use «Book of Origins»!” The Fred exploratory nature asked. “你不介意我们使用一下《起源之书》吧！”弗雷德试探性问道。 „Did not mind .” “不介意,给。” Albert toward Fred in front of pushes the metal book that also confiscates, looks that three people sneak in the back of activity room in a hurry, shakes the head. 艾伯特把还没收起来的金属书往弗雷德面前推,看着三人匆匆钻进活动室的背影,不由摇了摇头。 Own present is so scary? 自己现在真有那么吓人吗？ He is not a devil. 他又不是魔鬼。 However, Albert is not quite truly happy. From eight points to a moment ago, him has been chatting with Mr. and Mrs. Flamel, knew news that the medicament that they store up will soon exhaust. This was quite Dreadful news, Philosopher's Stone is destroyed without doubt, once the storage long life unaging medicine exhausted, two old people's lives will also come to the end. 不过,艾伯特的心情确实不太好。从八点到刚才,他一直在跟勒梅夫妇聊天,也得知他们储存的药剂即将耗尽的消息。这无疑是个相当糟糕的消息,魔法石早已被摧毁了,储存的长生不老药一旦耗尽,两位老人的生命也将走到尽头。 Although Albert is very early expects arrival of this day, but after knowing Mr. and Mrs. Flamel will soon leave, the mood still became Dreadful. 尽管艾伯特很早就料到这一天的到来,但在得知勒梅夫妇即将离开后,心情仍然变得十分糟糕。 To be honest, the person who Albert cares about truly are not many, so-called old friend, relations actually not good, even if both sides give the opposite party to give the Christmas gift and birthday present year after year, that also to maintain relations in surface merely, with the aim of needing time can use this to relate. 老实说,艾伯特真正在意的人并不多,所谓的老朋友,关系其实也没多好,哪怕双方年年给对方送圣诞节礼物与生日礼物,那也仅仅只是为了维持表面上的关系,以便需要的时候能用上这层关系。 Old person like Mr. and Mrs. Flamel, rarely rarely. 像勒梅夫妇那样的老人,很少很少。 „Really is worry-free.” “真是无忧无虑。” Looks to narrow the fat cat of eye comfortably, Albert sighs gently, mutters: „Does not know that with your fellow of the same name, what now is planning?” 看着舒服眯起眼睛的肥猫,艾伯特轻轻叹了口气,喃喃道:“不知道那位跟你同名的家伙,现在又在谋划什么？” „Meow!” “喵！” Tom cries out, rubs the back of the hand of Albert with the head, making him do not stop. 汤姆叫唤一声,用脑袋蹭艾伯特的手背,让他不要停下来。 „Really reaches out for a yard after taking an inch.” “真是得寸进尺。” Albert puts out a hand to support the foreleg of Tom, will put in order only the cat to fish from the table, then got buried into the puffy belly to rub several face, put out a hand to press firmly between the fingers that big cat face to pull gently, was happy immediately much. 艾伯特伸手架住汤姆的前肢,将整只猫从桌上捞起来,然后把脸埋进肥嘟嘟的肚子里蹭了几下,又伸手捏住那张大猫脸轻轻扯动,心情顿时好了不少。 Although a moment ago chatted was very long, but they have not actually chatted too many things. 刚才虽然聊了很久,但他们其实没聊太多的东西。 Just started Nicolas to ask the matter of wedding, said that had the thing to him, after letting Albert had a vacation, go to France as soon as possible. 刚开始尼可问起婚礼的事,又说有东西要给他,让艾伯特放假后尽快去法国一趟。 Afterward, Nicolas also asked that he did have divination this wedding, said oneself peep at the wedding possibly to be given to bother by Dark Wizard from crystal ball, and suggested that Albert reduced the scale of wedding, even can place their family/home the marriage place directly, to guarantee that some people will not disturb and destroy, even threatened two people safety during the marriage. 后来,尼可又问他有没有占卜过这场婚礼,又说自己从水晶球里窥视到婚礼可能会被黑巫师给搅局,并建议艾伯特将婚礼的规模缩小,甚至可以直接把结婚地点放在他们家,以确保不会有人打搅、破坏,甚至在结婚期间威胁到两人的生命安全。 Albert knows that this is the Nicolas good intention, but he does not want to disturb the life of old person, moreover he is not unprepared. 艾伯特知道这是尼可的好意,但他还是不希望打搅老人的生活,而且他也并非毫无准备。 In knows them from Albert for the preparation that the wedding makes with after the speculation of prediction, two old people relax. 在从艾伯特那儿知晓他们为婚礼做的准备与对预言的推测后,两位年迈的老人纷纷松了口气。 They know certainly that Albert is very fierce, knows that Albert invited Dumbledore as the safeguard of wedding, but fierce Wizard also is not invincible, similarly possibly pours in the conspiracy of enemy with planning under. 他们当然知道艾伯特很厉害,也知道艾伯特邀请了邓布利多作为婚礼的保障,但厉害的巫师却也并非无敌,同样可能倒在敌人的阴谋与算计下。 In finishing talking importantly afterward, surplus time Mr. and Mrs. Nicolas Flamel are recalling the past past events, like likes talking incessantly commonly the old person, after having a qualified listener, their words also became a lot. 在谈完要紧事后,剩余时间尼可·勒梅夫妇都在回忆自己过去的往事,就像寻常喜欢唠叨的老人,在有个合格的倾听者后,他们的话也变得多了起来。 Finally, Mr. and Mrs. Flamel also suggested that stays behind a heritage to Albert, is actually not the heritage, but is the research data that some Albert are interested, that is the achievement that the old person long time accumulates 最后,勒梅夫妇还暗示给艾伯特留下一笔遗产,其实也算不上遗产,而是一些艾伯特感兴趣的研究资料,那是老人漫长时间累积的成果 Mr. and Mrs. Flamel decided finally, compares the lifetime to become the peel to place in Beauxbatons Academy of Magic library to be covered with dust, might as well gives to Albert this favorite student, enabling this part the knowledge to continue to continue. 勒梅夫妇最终决定,相比起毕生成果被放在布斯巴顿魔法学校的图书馆里吃灰,还不如送给艾伯特这位得意门生,让这部分的知识可以继续延续下去。 To be honest, Albert truly wants these things, the way of but...... gaining makes his mood quite complex. 老实说,艾伯特确实想要那些东西,但……获取的方式让他的心情相当复杂。 Perhaps, to living the old person of long years, the death was another great adventure, moreover they were not lonely. 也许,对活了漫长岁月的老人来说,死亡不过是另一场伟大的冒险,而且他们并不孤单。 However, to Albert, the death is not considered as that the happy topic. 然而,对艾伯特来说,死亡并不算是愉快的话题。 He was too young. 他太年轻了。 Even if he can therefore obtain a rich heritage. 哪怕他能因此得到一笔丰厚的遗产。 This low mood has continued for several days, does Fred, George and Lee Jordan thinks that the day must collapse. 这种低迷的情绪一直持续了好几天,搞得弗雷德、乔治与李·乔丹都以为天要塌下来了。 Others can obviously feel Albert is sad 就连其他人都能明显感觉艾伯特心情不好 In order to make Albert happy, Fred, George and Lee Jordan change the method to tease him to be happy, perhaps obtained the direction of girls, three people of acrobatics became are more interesting, having time was to turn into three canaries, danced the tap dance side-by-side. 为了使艾伯特高兴,弗雷德、乔治与李·乔丹变着法子逗他开心,也许是得到了姑娘们的指点,三人的把戏变得有趣多了,有次更是变成三只金丝雀,肩并肩跳起踢踏舞。 Three people of methods have not made the Albert mood change for the better, but actually successfully makes joke item receive everyone to welcome. 三人的法子并未让艾伯特的心情好转,但却成功使得玩笑道具更受大家欢迎。 Until...... 直到…… „Did you finally restore normally?” George looks at aura steady Albert, relaxes. “你终于恢复正常了？”乔治看着气息平稳的艾伯特,不由松了口气。 „Returns to normal?” Asking of Albert doubts. “恢复正常？”艾伯特疑惑的问道。 „It‘s nothing, your as if......, was not quite couple days ago happy.” Fred considers own word usage carefully, he felt that a while ago the Albert whole body is covering the low atmospheric pressure, making them feel that the mood is very depressing. “没什么,前几天你的心情似乎……嗯,不太好。”弗雷德小心斟酌自己的用词,他感觉前阵子艾伯特浑身都笼罩着低气压,让他们感觉心情无比压抑。 „Un, some not good matter.” “嗯,一些不太好的事。” Albert still did not plan that with them disclosed too many news, has the breakfast. 艾伯特仍然不打算跟他们透露太多的消息,自顾自地吃起早餐。 At this time, the famous student was shouting suddenly runs in the hall, disregarded the professor vision to shout to everyone: „Toad, the toad came back.” 就在这时候,忽然有名学生大喊着跑进大厅,无视了教授们的目光对着大家喊道:“癞蛤蟆,癞蛤蟆回来了。” The people well up in abundance toward entrance hall, wants to surround Umbridge in Legend, this is true Champion, during his tenure suffered so many dangers and setbacks, still also insisted that taught in the first line, rather than the resignation travelled. 众人纷纷朝着门厅处涌去,想去围观传说中的乌姆里奇,这位可是真正的勇士,在任职期间遭遇到那么多的危险与挫折,仍然还坚持在第一线教书,而不是辞职跑路。 A big talking in whispers sound resounds in entrance hall, does not know that is who is taking the lead to applaud, unexpectedly resounded by fits and starts the warm applause and whistling sound. 一大片窃窃私语声在门厅处响起,也不知道是谁在带头鼓掌,居然响起了一阵又一阵热烈的掌声与口哨声。 Is welcomed by so many student, on the Umbridge face many smile, instead are not cloudier. Her very clear Hogwarts' student is impossible to welcome itself, a moment ago the warm applause was more like to his one taunt. 受到如此多学生的欢迎,乌姆里奇脸上并没有多少笑容,反而更加的阴沉了。她很清楚霍格沃茨的学生绝不可能欢迎自己,刚才热烈的掌声更像是对他的一种嘲讽。 Here truly the general idea that welcome her to return only has Filch only, this manager mister has buoyed up, takes the whip to attempt the student who disperses to come to surround, and goes forward to help take line of Lee very much warmly. 这里唯一真正欢迎她归来的大概只有费尔奇,这位管理员先生已经重新振作起来,拿着鞭子试图驱散前来围观的学生,并且很热情地上前帮忙拿行李。 Under the gazes of innumerable student, Umbridge lifts the foot to enter the entrance hall, discovered that unexpectedly which the statue of that toad openly places, even has not covered with a arrange/cloth. 在无数学生的注视下,乌姆里奇抬脚走进门厅,发现那癞蛤蟆的雕像居然就堂而皇之地放在哪儿,甚至都没拿一块布遮盖住。 This made the expression on Umbridge face cloudier. 这让乌姆里奇脸上的表情更阴沉了。 The people only listen to pū a sound, does not know that is who threw the dung ball, pounds directly on the face of toad statue. 众人只听噗的一声响,不知是谁扔了颗大粪弹,直接砸在癞蛤蟆雕像的脸上。 The expression on Umbridge face stiffened, as if that dung ball pounds on her face. 乌姆里奇脸上的表情僵住了,仿佛那颗大粪弹砸在她脸上。 This is the naked provocation. 这是赤裸裸的挑衅。 Has not waited for Umbridge to get back one's composure, more dung balls pound directly on the face of toad statue. 没等乌姆里奇回过神,更多大粪弹直接砸在癞蛤蟆雕像的脸上。 And, the dung ball pounded unexpectedly crookedly, pounded on the face of Umbridge. 其中,有一颗大粪弹竟砸歪了,砸在乌姆里奇的脸上。 While everyone was startled the dumbfounded time, entrance hall resounds one giggle to smile suddenly strangely, Peeves is floating in the midair, throws in like the vaudeville begins the dung ball, amid the applause of students, several other dung balls will throw to Umbridge. 正当所有人被惊得目瞪口呆的时候,门厅处忽然响起一阵咯咯咯地怪笑,皮皮鬼正漂浮在半空,像杂耍般抛着手里的大粪弹,在学生们的掌声中,将剩余的几颗大粪弹抛向乌姆里奇。 After all dung balls pound the head of new Headmaster, Peeves then giggle in the laughter Evanesco in one, as if appeared a moment ago to notify the opposite party merely. 等所有大粪弹都砸中新校长的脑袋后,皮皮鬼便在一阵咯咯的笑声中消失不见了,仿佛刚才出现仅仅只是为了跟对方打招呼。 Umbridge air/Qi flies into a rage, but she takes Peeves to have no means that even to find a person to go flat to vent not to have the means that because other surroundings students were seeing that this disperses instantly secretly directly, for fear that becomes the new Headmaster undeserved target of anger. 乌姆里奇气得暴跳如雷,但她却拿皮皮鬼没任何办法,就算想找个人撒气发泄一下也没办法,因为周围其他学生在见到这一幕后就直接一哄而散,生怕成为新校长的出气筒。 Umbridge can only return to the Defence Against the Dark Arts office breathless, Filch drags line of Lee to follow on the heels, a starting to speak but hesitating appearance. 乌姆里奇只能气急败坏地返回黑魔法防御办公室,费尔奇拖着行李跟在后面,一副欲言又止的模样。 When Umbridge prepares to open the door time, Filch could not bear say finally, „madame, you really planned to continue......” 等到乌姆里奇准备打开门的时候,费尔奇才终于忍不住开口说,“夫人,你真的打算继续……” „What issue has? Hagues......” “有什么问题吗？阿格……” Umbridge opens the door time, steps on the mud in directly the swamp, the entire body loses the balance instantaneously, falls in the swamp directly, like only lies the toad in swamp. 乌姆里奇推开门的时候,直接一脚踩进泥泞的沼泽里,整个身体瞬间失去平衡,直接摔进沼泽里,就像只趴在沼泽里的癞蛤蟆。 If Lee Jordan here, will definitely not let up this opportunity, helping Umbridge make several pictures. 如果李·乔丹在这儿,肯定不会放过这次机会,帮乌姆里奇多拍几张照片。 „Madame, you are good.” Filch worries asks, „I also think that you remember......” “夫人,你还好吧。”费尔奇担忧地问道,“我还以为你记得……” The swamp is not deep, Umbridge that but the whole person falls still encountered very big problem, a lot of sewages and soils almost make her suffocate, the toad that Umbridge is only drowned likely keeps tumbling to struggle. 沼泽并不深,但整个人陷进去的乌姆里奇仍然遇到了很大的麻烦,大量的污水与泥土差点让她窒息,乌姆里奇像只溺水的癞蛤蟆不停地翻滚挣扎。 Finally Filch goes to give to fish her, two people therefore made sludge. 最后还是费尔奇进去把她给捞上来的,两人都因此弄了一身污泥。 „Damn, damn, damn......” “该死,该死,都该死……” Umbridge exudes the imprecations unceasingly, dragging along the whole face dirt body to go to the professor washroom, left behind in the ground that row of mud footprint with Filch that looking at the mud footprint is in a daze. 乌姆里奇不断发出咒骂声,拖着满脸污垢地身躯去了教授们的盥洗室,留下地面上那排泥脚印与望着泥脚印发呆的费尔奇。 „How long I must clean up to be able here to clean.” Filch muttered. “我得清理多久才能把这里弄干净。”费尔奇喃喃道。 Without a doubt, there is not suitable to continue to take the Defence Against the Dark Arts office, was good still also had many spatial rooms to be used in the Hogwarts castle to make the office. 毫无疑问,那儿已经不适合继续在作为黑魔法防御办公室了,好在霍格沃茨城堡里仍然还有不少的空房间可以用来做办公室。 Umbridge with the help of Filch, changed an office to oneself, in any case she is Headmaster, anything was calculation that she said that the nature selected within the best office to oneself. 乌姆里奇在费尔奇的帮助下,给自己重新换了一间办公室,反正她是校长,什么都是她说的算,自然给自己挑了间最好的办公室。 Next morning, 第二天早上, Just returned to Umbridge of Hogwarts office through fireplace, some discovery people threw the dung ball toward her office in unexpectedly, the air/Qi her face twist. 刚通过壁炉返回霍格沃茨办公室的乌姆里奇,就发现居然有人往她的办公室里扔大粪弹,气得她的脸都扭曲了。 However, the one who makes Umbridge pleasantly surprised was opens office that moment of gate in her, the whole person by the present scene being shocked. 然而,更让乌姆里奇惊喜的是在她打开办公室的门的那一刻,整个人都被眼前的景象给惊呆了。 The corridor outside office, turns into a swamp in a night unexpectedly. 办公室外的走廊,竟在一夜间变成一片沼泽。 If were not yesterday suffers a loss, the Umbridge instinct first opened the door to see clearly gate another side is what situation, perhaps she stepped on the swamp to throw down early. 如果不是昨天吃了大亏,乌姆里奇本能先打开门看清楚门的另一边是什么情况,恐怕她早一脚踩进沼泽摔倒了。 In the air is sending out revolting odor, almost smoked her spits 空气中更是散发着一股令人作呕的恶臭,差点把她熏吐了 However, those who make the Umbridge air/Qi result in the whole body to tremble is the office entrance, is also inserting a plank unexpectedly, above also pasted Umbridge to turn into the picture of human form toad, as well as such a few words: Anti-Toad Alliance delivers the highest respect for you. 然而,更让乌姆里奇气得浑身发抖的是办公室门口,竟然还插着一块木板,上面还贴了张乌姆里奇变成人形癞蛤蟆的照片,以及这样一句话:反癞蛤蟆联盟为您送上最崇高的敬意。 „— —!” “啊——！” The Umbridge whole body is shivering, finally screamed angrily. 乌姆里奇浑身都在颤抖,最终愤怒地尖叫起来。 That bumps, the gate of Defence Against the Dark Arts office was closed layer on layer/heavily. 碰的一声,黑魔法防御办公室的门被重重地关上。 Umbridge opens the window, paces up and down in the office, the mouth also exudes various significance unclear imprecations unceasingly. 乌姆里奇打开窗户,在办公室里来回走动,嘴里还不断发出各种意义不明的咒骂声。 Goes too far simply. 简直就是欺人太甚。 During St Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries, Umbridge has thought various possibilities, have had various fantasies. However, just returned to the school first day, the brutal reality gave her ruthlessly a palm of the hand. 在圣芒戈魔法伤病医院期间,乌姆里奇想过各种可能,有过各种幻想。然而,刚回学校的第一天,残酷的现实就狠狠地给了她一巴掌。 If Umbridge recalls oneself had once done that pile broken matter carefully, will not think that did this excessive. But wish makes Umbridge realize that this is obviously difficult, because the person are the double target, wants Umbridge such to realize that this is more difficult. 如果乌姆里奇仔细回忆自己曾做过的那堆破事,就不会觉得这样做过分了。但想要让乌姆里奇意识到这点显然非常困难,因为人都是双标的,想让乌姆里奇这样的人意识到这点就更加难上加难。 Many Anti-Toad Alliance members are very stimulated, some people do not even attend class, hides near the corridor specially, wants to have a look at the toad to discover that outside the office turns into a swamp to have anything to respond. 很多反癞蛤蟆联盟的成员对此无比亢奋,有些人甚至都不去上课,专门躲在走廊附近,想看看癞蛤蟆发现办公室外变成一片沼泽会有什么反应。 Everyone is glad to notice that very much their new Headmaster are hapless, who makes her also probably continue to hold an office , to continue to persecute the Hogwarts' student, don't that blame them to counter-attack? 大家都很乐意看到他们的新校长倒霉,谁让她还要继续回来任职,继续回来迫害霍格沃茨的学生,那就别怪他们反击了？ „The Umbridge misfortune, is my joy!” “乌姆里奇的不幸,就是我的快乐！” These words are very without doubt good to respond the Hogwarts students present mentality. 这句话无疑很好反应了霍格沃茨学生们现在的心态。 Looks at Umbridge bad luck, can always arouse their joyful. 看着乌姆里奇一次次倒霉,总能激起他们内心的愉悦。 Albert felt that own mood obviously improved. 就连艾伯特都感觉自己的心情明显变好了。 The joy sometimes is so unadorned. 快乐有时候就是如此朴实无华。 ( This chapter ends) (本章完)
