“I’m not cold,” the woman replies, “I fear for my life!”

“We are here to help you. Don’t worry about anything. I don’t know you. But I know many things about you. For example, I know how you travel. You came to London by train. You also ride to the train station on a horse-drawn wagon (马车).”

“Why, yes. You’re right. But how do you know these things?”

“I see a return ticket in your glove. I see fresh mud on the left arm of your dress. Now tell us your problem.”

“My name is Helen Stoner,” she states, “My mother and father are dead. I am living with my stepfather, Dr. Grimes by Roylott. He comes from a rich family. But they are no longer rich. They have nothing except a small piece of land and a huge old house. We are living in the house. Dr. Roylott is using my mother’s money for expenses (开支). Part of it was for my sister and me. It was for our marriages.”

“However, my sister died right before her wedding day. It was a windy and rainy day. the wind was howling outside, and the rain was beating and splashing against the windows. Suddenly, I heard scream of a woman. By the light of the corridor-lamp I saw my sister appear at the opening. I ran to her and threw my arms round her, but at that moment her knees seemed to give way and she fell to the ground. I rush to her, and she suddenly shrieked out (痛苦地喊出) in a voice which I shall never forget, ‘Oh, my God! Helen! It was the band! The speckled band!’. There was something else that she wanted to say. She pointed into the air in the direction of stepfather’s room.”

Holmes is sitting in his chair. His eyes are closed. He is listening carefully to Helen’s story. He hears every detail.

Helen continues. “My stepfather has no friends. He fights with everyone. He is strong and gets angry quickly. Everyone is afraid of him.”

“He has no friends at all?” asks Holmes.

“No. He talks to no one except the gypsies. They are poor people who travel from place to place. A band of gypsies is staying on our land right now.”

“Are you and your sister afraid of the gypsies?”

“My dear Mr. Holmes. You are making me so sad. My sister is dead. That is why I am standing here in this room.”

26、   At the start of his new term, Zhou Ziyu, a student from Heilongjiang, got some big news. Her school plans to delay (延迟) its start time to 8 a.m. She was quite happy.

Zhou used to get up at 6 a.m., but would study until 10 or 11 p.m. the night before. She worked very hard. Her school asked students to arrive at 6:30 a.m. in summer and 7 a.m. in winter.
