"A very remarkable account," said Sherlock Holmes.
福爾摩斯道："你的故事很有意思。

There is nothing at all new to me in the latter part of your narrative except that you brought your own rope.

That I did not know. By the way, I had hoped that Tonga had lost all his darts;
可是還有一層，我原以為童格把他的毒刺全丟了，
yet he managed to shoot one at us in the boat."
怎么最后他在船上又向我們放出了一支呢？"
"He had lost them all, sir, except the one which was in his blow-pipe at the time."
"先生，他的毒刺確是全丟了，可是吹管里還剩有一支。"
"Ah, of course," said Holmes. "I had not thought of that."
福爾摩斯道："啊，可不是嗎，我沒有料到這一層。"
"Is there any other point which you would like to ask about?" asked the convict affably.
這囚犯殷勤地問道："還有什么要問的嗎？"
"I think not, thank you," my companion answered.
我的伙伴答道："我想沒有什么了，謝謝你。"

瓊斯道："福爾摩斯，我們應當順著您，
and we all know that you are a connoisseur of crime;
我們都知道您是犯罪的鑒定家，
but duty is duty, and I have gone rather far in doing what you and your friend asked me.
可是我有我的職責，今天為您和您的朋友已經(jīng)很夠通融的了。

whatever you may have done to the gentleman at the Andaman Isles."
不管你在安達曼群島是怎樣處治那位先生的。"
