in him what was, considering his age, an extraordinary seriousness of mind. Accustomed as I was to seeing him gay and, indeed, often too gay, I would many times find him plunged in the deepest melancholy. I tried then to question him as to the cause of this change of humour, but each time he laughed and made me no answer. One day, having questioned him about his parents, of whom he never spoke, he left me, pretending not to have heard what I said.
While things were in this state between us, the famous case of The Yellow Room took place. It was this case which was to rank him as the leading newspaper reporter, and to obtain for him the reputation of being the greatest detective in the world. It should not surprise us to find in the one man the perfection of two such lines of activity if we remember that the daily press was already beginning to transform itself and to become what it is to-day - the gazette of crime.
Morose-minded people may complain of this; for myself I regard it a matter for congratulation. We can never have too many arms, public or private, against the criminal. To this some people may answer that, by continually publishing the

于是,原来大豪居住的房子有了新的主人,而对于底层的百姓来说,大豪依旧是大豪,奴仆还是奴仆,生活并没有什么改变。

“幼平,听说你与城门上被悬赏檄捕的高宠是结义兄弟?”隐约间有说话声传来,听这口气很是老到,但声音却透着稚嫩。
另有一人回道:“禀二公子,我周泰虽与那高宠结交,但若是今日遇上了,我当不徇私情,以公事为重!”
这声音是如此的熟悉,周泰——,他要以公事为重,他要不徇私情,是口头说说而已,还是真的要这么做,我的心感到了阵阵的悸动。
马蹄声碎,渐行渐近,我打眼望去,只见居中一人,形貌奇伟,骨体不恆,方颐大口,一对碧眼放着精光,不过年纪倒是不大,只在十三四岁上下,行止间现出稚气未脱的样子。但那眼神却分别透着大人才有的精明。

¡¡¡¡ "I have read two books of the ILIAD, besides being pretty familiar with passages such as the speech of Phoenix in the ninth book, the fight of Hector and Ajax in the fourteenth, the appearance of Achilles unarmed and his heavenly armour in the eighteenth, and the funeral games in the twenty-third. I have also done some Hesiod, a little scrap of Thucydides, and a lot of the Greek Testament.... I wish there was only one dialect all the same. ¡¡¡¡ "I have done some mathematics, including the first six and the eleventh and twelfth books of Euclid; and algebra as far as simple equations. ¡¡¡¡ "I know something of the Fathers, and something of Roman and English history. ¡¡¡¡ "These things are only a beginning. But I shall not make much farther advance here, from the difficulty

Once there I shall so advance, with the assistance I shall there get, that my present knowledge will appear to me but as childish ignorance. I must save money, and I will; and one of those colleges shall open its doors to me--shall welcome whom now it would spurn, if I wait twenty years for the welcome. ¡¡¡¡ "I'll be D.D. before I have done!"
