《神探夏洛克》精讲 381把雕像打碎

是我们刚经过的那个门廊吗

The porch where we came in?

怎么会有人这么恨她

How anybody could hate her so much

还要大费周章地闯进来打碎她的雕像

they'd go to the trouble of smashing her likeness¹...

我不是专家  但我猜可能是因为她的长相

I'm no expert, but, uh, possibly her face.

为什么不全都打碎  多好的机会啊

Why didn't he smash all the others? Perfect opportunity,

看看那件  还笑呢

and look at that one - she's smiling.

探长  这显然是在浪费时间

Oh, Inspector², this is clearly a waste of time.

-要是没别的  -我知道你儿子是怎么了

- And if there's nothing... - I know what happened to your son.

真的

You do?

很简单  说实话甚至有点显而易见

It's quite simple, superficial, to be blunt.

不过首先告诉我  闯入的那天晚上

But first, tell me, the night of the break-in,

这间房间没开灯吧

this room was in darkness?

-是的  -而打碎雕像的门廊

- Well, yes. - And the porch where it was smashed,

我注意到运动传感器坏掉了

I noticed the motion sensor³ was damaged,

-所以灯始终是亮着的  -你怎么看到的

- so I assume it's permanently⁴ lit. - How did you notice that?

我没有你们警方那种无视细节的自大

I lack the arrogance⁵ to ignore details - I'm not the police.

也就是说

So you're saying

-他去亮的地方把雕像打碎了  -对

- he smashed it where he could see it. - Exactly.

-为什么  -不知道  要是知道就好玩了

- Why? - Don't know. Wouldn't be fun if I knew.

福尔摩斯先生  求你了

Mr Holmes, please!
