原文:
"It's — it's true ?" faltered Professor McGonagall. "After all he's done… all the people he's killed… he couldn't kill a little boy? It's just astounding… of all the things to stop him… but how in the name of heaven did Harry survive?"
Professor McGonagall pulled out a lace handkerchief and dabbed at her eyes beneath her spectacles. Dumbledore gave a great sniff as he took a golden watch from his pocket and examined it. It was a very odd watch. It had twelve hands but no numbers; instead, little planets were moving around the edge. It must have made sense to Dumbledore, though, because he put it back in his pocket and said, "Hagrid's late. I suppose it was he who told you I'd be here, by the way?"
"Yes," said Professor McGonagall. "And I don't suppose you're going to tell me why you're here, of all places?"
"I've come to bring Harry to his aunt and uncle. They're the only family he has left now."
"You don't mean - you can't mean the people who live here ?" cried Professor McGonagall, jumping to her feet and pointing at number four. "Dumbledore — you can't. I've been watching them all day. You couldn't find two people who are less like us. And they've got this son — I saw him kicking his mother all the way?up the street, screaming for sweets. Harry Potter come and live here!"
"It's the best place for him," said Dumbledore firmly. "His aunt and uncle will be able to explain everything to him when he's older. I've written them a letter."
譯文:
“這——這是真的嗎?”麥格教授用顫巍巍的聲音說?!八隽诉@么多壞事……殺了這么多人……可竟然殺不了一個孩子?這簡直令人震驚… …我們想了那么多辦法去阻止他……可蒼天在上,哈利究竟是怎么幸免于難的呢?”
“我們只能猜測,”鄧布利多說,“我們可能永遠也不會知道?!薄 ?/p>
麥格教授掏出一塊花邊手帕輕輕拭了拭鏡片后邊的眼睛。鄧布利多深深吸了一口氣,從衣袋里掏出一塊金表,認真看起來。那只表樣子很奇怪,有十二根指針,卻沒有數(shù)字,還有一些小星沿著表盤邊緣轉(zhuǎn)動。鄧布利多顯然看明白了,他把表放回衣袋,說:“海格肯定遲到了。順便問一句,我想,大概是他告訴您我要到這里來的吧?”
“是的,”麥格教授說,“可去的地方多了,您為什么偏偏要到這里來呢? 我想,您大概不會告訴我吧?”
“我是來接哈利,把他送到他姨媽姨父家的?,F(xiàn)在他們是他惟一的親人了?!薄 ?/p>
“您不會是指——您不可能是指住在這里的那家人吧?”她噌地跳起來,指著四號那一家?!班嚥祭唷刹荒苓@么做。我觀察他們一整天了。您找不到比他們更不像你我這樣的人了。他們還有一個兒子——我看見他在大街上一路用腳踢他母親,吵著要糖吃。要哈利·波特住在這里?!”
“這對他是最合適的地方了?!编嚥祭鄨远ǖ卣f,“等他長大一些,他的姨媽姨父會向他說明一切。我給他們寫了一封信?!薄?/p>
