Un-ney grin ankures yus begin apari on elmas, e lipi-she lanzalik yemas de kastanas zai devolvi inu pet-finga-ney lif-ki. Nu promeni tuhun duran dwa ora, maistem in silensa, kom dwa normale manjen kel koni mutu hao. Es hampi klok pet wen nu returni pa fin a Beiker-strit. | ||

Sey pipa on tabla bu es yu-ney. Also ta he lyu ta-ney-la. Prival lao bresa-ney pipa do hao longe tuba aus material ke komersantas nami amba. Me'd yao jan, kwanto pipa-muhka aus vere amba ye in Landan! Kelkes opini ke amba es vere, si un moska ye in it. Es yo osobe fah de komersa, tu inklusi false moskas inu false amba.

Bat oni bu mog agnisi pipa fon lampa sin gualisi tuba. E it es gualisen pa desne flanka, fon lo kel me konklusi ke lu es lefte-handa-ney. Si yu hi teni yur pipa an lampa, yu ve vidi ke yu teni it al lefte taraf versu flama, bikos yu bu es lefte-handa-ney. Mogbi un ves yu zwo se inversem, bat bu stay. Den sey-la oni sempre teni-te tak.

Yus afte it ye prival abeta-ney shulin-ki, e me gro-pri go promeni dar, bikos baumes es sempre priate kosa. Toy vilaja-dom es sin resida duran ot laste mes, e es ya triste, bikos it es jamile bildura do dwa etaja, do lao-moda-ney porcha, sirkumen bay kaprifolia. Me gwo kontempli it mucho ves, dumi-yen ke it wud bi prival vilaja-dom fo fai refuja in it. | ||

Es klare ke oni he arendi vilaja-dom pa fin. Me promeni ahir-adar bli it e fai jigyas om kwel tip de jenta es li kel he lai fo jivi tanto blisem a nu. Turan al kan me vidi ke koy fas-ge zai observi me fon un de uupare windas. | ||

Tal es may impresa. Me go kway pyu blisem, dabe vidi ti me kan na jen pyu hao. Bat fas turan desapari, tanto turan ke sembli ke it es ek-tiren inu tumitaa de shamba. Me resti stan duran pet minuta dumi-yen om sey dela e trai-yen analisi may impresa. Me bu mog shwo ob fas es de man o de gina. It bin tro dalem fon me. Bat suy kolor hi impresi me zuy. It es mortem pale, e do koysa fixi-ney e rigide, lo kel mah it shok-nem nonaturale. Me es tanto disturbi-ney ke me resoluti en-jan pyu om nove habiter de dom. Me blisifi e tuki pa dwar kel es tuy ofni-ney bay gao magre gina do karke noprival fas. | ||
+ | |||

Duran tote aksham, obwol me trai dumi om otre kosas, may menta haishi returni a fantom in winda e karkitaa de gina. Me desidi shwo nixa om fantom a may molya, bikos ela es nerva-ney e fa-impresishil gina, also me bu yao parti may nopriate impresa kun ela. Yedoh, bifoo ke me en-somni, me remarki a ela, ke vilaja-dom es nau okupi-ney, a lo kel ela bu fai jawaba. | ||

Yedoh koykomo in toy hi nocha - ob por leve eksita kausi-ney bay may syao aventura oda por koysa otre - me somni mucho pyu levem kem pinchanem. Tra sonja me vagem konsi ke koysa zai eventi in shamba, e gradualem en-konsi ke may molya he klaidi swa e zai onpon mantela e shapa. May labas muvi fo murmuri koy somnaful wordas do surprisa o protesta kontra sey nobyen tayaring, wen turan may haf-ofni-ney okos kan an elay fas, lumisi-ney bay kandela-luma, e astona mutisi me. Ela hev myen ke me bu gwo vidi... ke me iven bu mog-te imajini. Ela es mortem pale e kway spiri-she, ahfem kan-she kama, al butoni mantela, fo vidi ob ela he jagisi me. Poy, dumi-yen ke me haishi zai somni, ela fliti sin shum aus shamba, e afte momenta me audi ek-skrika kel mog lai sol fon sharnir de shefe dwar. Me en-sidi in kama e tuki may finga-jor an kama-borda, dabe mah swa serte ke me verem jagi. Poy me pren may kloka fon sub kushen. Es klok tri de sabah. Kwo hi may molya mog zwo on vilaja-ney kamina pa klok tri de sabah? | ||

May molya sempre bin gina do franke e ofni-ney natura, e me es fobisen al vidi komo ela ahfi-go inu swa-ney prope shamba e krai e ek-tremi wen elay prope mursha shwo a ela. | ||

Fakta es ke me senti-te kwasi me zai tufi, e me gro-yao-te fai ek-spira de freshe aira. Me verem dumi ke me wud dekonsi si me bu wud chu. Me stan-te pa dwar duran kelke minuta, e nau me sta ga hao snova. | ||

Me shwo nixa pa jawaba, bat turni fas versu mur, al sta buhao, al menta fulen bay mil toxin-ney-si duba e suspekta. Kwo hi may molya ahfi fon me? Wo ela bin duran toy ajibe wanda? Me senti ke me bu wud hev salam til ke me en-jan, yedoh me eviti kwesti ela snova afte ke ela shwo-te falsitaa. Tra resta de nocha me turni-turni in kama, bildi-yen teoria afte teoria, kada nove-la meno probable kem bifoo-ney-la. | ||

Nu apena intershanji para worda duran sabahfan, e tuy poy me go aus fo promeni, dabe me mog bedumi sey dela hao al freshe sabah-ney aira. | ||

Eventi ke may dao mah me pasi toy vilaja-dom, e me stopi fo un momenta dabe kan windas, kan ob me mog snova ek-vidi toy ajibe fas kel kan-te an me pa bifoo-dey. Wen me stan dar, turan - imajini ba may surprisa, sinior Holms! - dwar ofni e may molya go aus. | ||

Al un-ney momenta ela sembli yao fliti bak inu dom snova; e poy, samaji-yen vanitaa de eni ahfing, ela lai a me, al fas muy blan e okos fobisi-ney, lo kel bu konkordi kun smaila on elay labas. | ||

E toy karke gina ke me vidi-te pa bifoo-dey, komo ta mog bi konekti-ney kun ela? Es ajibe enigma, yedoh me jan ke may menta bu ve sta hao snova til ke me resolvi it. | ||

Si, pa otre taraf, lo kel me opini pyu probable, habiteres bin warni-ney om yur laisa e departi-te bifoo ke yu zin-te yeri, dan li mog bi returni-ney nau, e nu ve klarisi olo fasilem.

+ | |||
+ | - Ya, taimike-la. Bat me ve bi surprisi-ney si it fa-reveli bukorekte. Un-ney mursha de sey gina es in toy vilaja-dom. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Way yu dumi tak? | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Komo otrem nu mog expliki elay panika-ney dranga kontra ke elay dwa-ney mursha zin it? Faktas, kom me samaji li, es sirke tal. Sey gina gami in Amerika. Elay mursha reveli koy henival kwalitaa; oda, hay nu shwo, lu en-fai koy nafre morba, e bikam lepra-ney o pagale. Pa fin ela eskapi fon lu, returni a Ingland, shanji elay nam, e en-fai nove jiva, kom ela dumi. Afte tri yar de gama ela kredi ke elay posision es ga sigure. Ela he diki a mursha den morta-dokumenta de koy man kel-ney nam ela pren-te. Turan elay resida es deskovri-ney bay elay un-ney mursha; oda, nu wud suposi, bay koy nomoral-ney gina kel hunti-te a invalida. Li skribi a molya, e ugrosi tu lai e reveli ela. Ela pregi sto paun, e trai wekkupi li. Li lai malgree se, e wen mursha mensioni kasualem a molya ke ye novnikes in vilaja-dom, ela samaji koykomo ke li es elay persekwer. Ela weiti til ke mursha zai somni, e poy ela hasti fo trai konvinsi li lyu ela pa salam. Al he fai nul sukses, ela go snova pa sabah, e elay mursha miti ela, kom lu shwo-te a nu, wen ela lai aus. Ela wadi a lu dan ke ela bu ve go adar snova, bat afte dwa dey, wen nada de mah-wek toy fobisi-she visines es tro forte, ela fai nove traisa, pren-yen kun ela den foto kel bin probablem demandi-ney fon ela. Miden sey intershwosa servi-gela lopi-lai fo shwo ke masto lai-te a dom. Molya tuy samaji ke lu ve lai direktem a vilaja-dom, e ela mah oli habiter kwiti dom tra bake dwar, shayad inu toy abeta-ney shulin-ki kel bin mensioni-ney kom stan-she blisem. Por to lu findi plasa kwiti-ney. Me ve bi muy, muy surprisi-ney, yedoh, si it ve bi haishi kwiti-ney wen lu ve explori it pa sey aksham. Kwo yu dumi om may teoria? | ||
+ | |||
+ | - In it olo es suposa. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Bat amini it expliki oli fakta. Wen nove fakta ve lai a nuy jansa, kel bu mog bi expliki-ney bay it, nu ve hev taim fo rekaulu it. Nu mog zwo nixa pyu til ke nu hev mesaja fon nuy amiga in Norburi. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Bat nu bu majbur weiti longem. Mesaja lai yus wen nu fini-te nuy chay. "Vilaja-dom es haishi habiti-ney," it shwo. "Vidi-te fas snova in winda. Ve miti tren pa klok sem, e bu ve fai enisa til ke yu arivi." | ||
+ | |||
+ | Wen nu chu tren, lu zai weiti on plataforma, e nu vidi in lampas-luma de stasion, ke lu es muy pale e tremi-she por agita. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Li es haishi dar, sinior Holms, - lu shwo, teni-yen fortem mansha de may amiga. - Me vidi-te lumas in vilaja-dom wen me lai-te. Nu sal fini se nau pa un ves e fo sempre. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Kwel es yur plan? - Holms kwesti al go along tume kamina kun baum-linia. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Me ve forsi-go inu dom e vidi selfa, hu es dar. Me yao ke yu ambi es gavaher. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Yu resoluti zwo se malgree konsila de yur molya ke pyu hao ke yu bu resolvi misteria? | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Ya, me resoluti. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Wel, me dumi ke yu es pa pravitaa. Eni veritaa es pyu hao kem budeterminen duba. Nu go ba nau hi. Naturalem, kanun-nem, nu zai fai klare nopravitaa; bat me dumi ke val zwo to. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Nocha es muy tume, e pluva-ki en-lwo wen nu turni fon gran kamina inu tange alee do glube radaforas, kun bushbarana pa ambi flanka. Yedoh sinior Grant Manro hasti nosabrem avan, e nu stumbli-ki-yen hasti afte lu tanto kway kom nu mog. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Es lumas de may dom, - lu murmuri, indiki-yen agninka inter baumes. - E walaa toy vilaja-dom, e me sal zin it. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Nu turni angula de alee al ke lu shwo, ewalaa dom es ga bli nu. Hwan luma-stripa on swate bifoo-dom-ney arda diki ke dwar bu es fulem klosi-ney, e un winda in uupare etaja es yarkem lumisi-ney. Al zai kan, nu vidi tume spota muvi-she baken kurtena. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Walaa toy kreatura! - Grant Manro krai. - Yu vidi ke koywan ye dar. Nau sekwi me, e sun nu ve jan olo. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Nu blisifi a dwar; bat turan un gina apari fon swatitaa e stan in golda-ney stripa de lampa-luma. Me bu vidi elay fas in tumitaa, bat elay extendi-ney brachas expresi gro-prega. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Pa Boh, bye, Jek! - ela krai. - Me he pre-senti ke yu lai pa sey aksham. Dumi pyu hao om se, kare! Fidi me snova, e yu ve neva afsosi to. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Me fidi-te yu tro longem, Effi, - lu krai, saktem. - Lasi me go! Me treba pasi yu. May amigas e me sal ladi sey dela pa un ves e fo sempre! <br>Lu atarafi ela, e nu sekwi lu blisem. Afte ke lu pushi-ofni dwar, un lao gina auslopi versu lu e probi stopi lu, bat lu drangi ela wek, e afte un momenta nu oli es on sulam. Grant Manro hasti-zin lumisen shamba pa uupara, e nu zin tuy afte lu. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Es byen, hao mebeli-ney shamba, kun dwa kandela jal-she on tabla e dwa la on kamin. In angula, al gorbi sobre skribitabla, koy syao gela-ge zai sidi. Elay fas es wekturni-ney wen nu zin, bat nu vidi ke ela onhev rude roba e longe blan gantas. Wen ela turni e lopi a nu, me ek-fai kraisa de surprisa e foba. Fas ke ela turni a nu es do zuy ajibe mortem pale kolor, e tretas es absolutem sin eni expresa. Afte un momenta misteria es expliki-ney. Holms, kun rida, pasi suy handa baken aur de kinda, maska fa-wek fon elay fas, e walaa yunnegrina, swate kom gual, zai ridi an nuy surprisi-ney fases al ke elay dentas blanfai. Me lwo in rida, al ko-senti elay alegritaa; bat Grant Manro zai stan kan-yen, al suy handa graspi-she suy gorla. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - May Boh! - lu krai. - Kwo mog bi signifa de se? | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Me ve shwo a yu signifa de se, - krai siniora, go-yen inu shamba al garwe, resolute fas. - Yu mah me majbur shwo a yu, kontra may prope juda. Nau nu ambi treba fai zuy hao desida. May mursha he morti in Atlanta. May kinda he ausjivi. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Yur kinda ku? | ||
+ | |||
+ | Ela tiri gran argente medalion fon suy sina. <br>- Yu neva he vidi it ofni-ney. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Me opini-te ke it bu ofni. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Ela tachi koy pruja, e avana salti bak. Inen ye portreta de un man astonem jamile e intelem aspekti-she, bat porti-she on suy tretas den sinduba-ney signas de suy Afrika-ney origin. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - To es Jon Hebron, de Atlanta, - gina shwo, - e man pyu noble bu gwo bi on arda. Me he kati swa fon may rasa dabe gami lu, bat neva, duran ke lu jivi-te, me asfosi-te se, ni pa un momenta. Es nuy bade fortuna ke nuy sole kinda simili luy genta pyu kem may-la. To es oftem tak she tal paras, e syao Lusi es pyu tume kem suy patra bin. Bat tume o blan, ela es may prope kare syao docha, e mama gro-lubi ela. - Al sey wordas gela lopi a gina e sinki fas inu suy jupa. <br>- Wen me kwiti-te ela in Amerika, - ta kontinu, - to es sol por ke elay sanitaa es feble, e shanja wud mog nuksani ela. Ela es dai-ney a kuyda de fidele servi-gina fon Skotland kel gwo bi nuy servi-sha pa un ves. Neva, ni duran un hi momenta, me dumi-te om desadopti ela. Bat wen fortuna lansi yu in may dao, Jek, afte ke me en-lubi yu, me fobi shwo a yu om may kinda. Hay boh pardoni me, me fobi ke me wud lusi yu, e me bu hev kuraja fo shwo a yu. Me majbur selekti inter yu, e por may feblitaa me turni wek fon may prope syao docha. Duran tri yar me kipi elay exista pa sekret fon yu, bat me fai leta kun nana, e me jan ke olo es hao om ela. Pa fin, yedoh, lai nosuperibile yaosa de vidi may kinda. Me luchi kontra it, bat vanem. Obwol me samaji danja, me desidi ke hay oni mah-lai kinda ahir, vaika fo kelke wik. Me sendi sto paun a nana, e me dai a ta instrukta om sey vilaja-dom, dabe ta wud aspekti kom visin kel ga bu gwansi me. Me fai chauka-stepa tanto gro ke me komandi a ta tu kipi kinda in dom al dey e tu kovri elay syao fas e handas, dabe oni, iven al vidi ela in winda, bu fai gosip om ke ye swate kinda in visintaa. Si me wud bin meno chauke, me wud bin pyu saje, bat me bin haf-pagale por foba ke yu en-jan veritaa. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Yu hi shwo a me un-nem ke dom es okupi-ney. Me wud gai weiti sabah, bat me bu mog somni por eksita, e also pa fin me go kyetem aus, jan-yen komo mushkile es tu jagisi yu. Bat yu vidi ke me go, e to es beginsa de may beda. Pa sekwi-dey yu hev may sekret pa yur rahimtaa, bat yu noblem bu profiti fon yur avantaja. Afte tri dey, yedoh, nana e kinda apena eludi via bakdwar wen yu intrusi via avandwar. E nau pa sey aksham yu pa fin jan olo, e me kwesti yu, kwo hi ve eventi a nu, a may kinda e me? - Al presi swa-ney handas ela zai weiti jawaba. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sol afte longe shi minuta Grant Manro tori silensa, e suy jawaba es tal ke me pri remembi it. Lu lifti syao kinda, kisi ela, e poy, haishi porti-yen ela, lu extendi suy otre handa a suy molya e turni versu dwar. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Nu mog beshwo se pa dom pa pyu byen modus, - lu shwo. - Me bu es muy hao jen, Effi, bat shayad me es pyu hao kem yu opini-te me. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Holms e me sekwi li along alee, e wen nu chu it, may amiga tiri may mansha. | ||
+ | |||

+ | |||
+ | Lu bu shwo otre worda om sey kasu til tarde nocha, wen lu zai fa-dirigi, kun kandela flami-ney, a suy somnishamba. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Wotson, - lu shwo, - si koywen sembli a yu ke me bikam idyen tro sigure om may kapablitaas, oda ke me fai meno traisa kem kasu meriti, plis hamsi "Norburi" inu may aur, e me ve bi nofin-nem dankaful a yu. | ||
