The Inn of the Red Lobster
Cat and Fox and Marionette walked and walked and walked. At last, toward evening, dead tired, they came to the Inn of the Red Lobster.
"Let us stop here a while," said the Fox, "to eat a bite and rest for a few hours. At midnight we'll start out again, for at dawn tomorrow we must be at the Field of Wonders."
They went into the Inn and all three sat down at the same table. However, not one of them was very hungry.
The poor Cat felt very weak, and he was able to eat only thirty-five mullets with tomato sauce and four portions of tripe with cheese. Moreover, as he was so in need of strength, he had to have four more helpings of butter and cheese.
The Fox, after a great deal of coaxing, tried his best to eat a little. The doctor had put him on a diet, and he had to be satisfied with a small hare dressed with a dozen young and tender spring chickens. After the hare, he ordered some partridges, a few pheasants, a couple of rabbits, and a dozen frogs and lizards. That was all. He felt ill, he said, and could not eat another bite.
Pinocchio ate least of all. He asked for a bite of bread and a few nuts and then hardly touched them. The poor fellow, with his mind on the Field of Wonders, was suffering from a gold-piece indigestion.
Supper over, the Fox said to the Innkeeper:

 周泰道:“那贤弟今后有何打算?”
  我道:“刘繇乃汉室宗亲,朝廷亲授扬州牧,于我又有赦恩,我正欲回曲阿复归其军下。”
  周泰一听,急道:“刘繇懦弱,哪里是孙策的对手,贤弟执意回去,他日我兄弟二人对阵搏杀又如何是好?”
  我大声道:“大丈夫有所为而有所不为,他日阵前撕杀,即是各为其主,你我只管使出本事尽力而为即可,谁也无需挂念兄弟之情而手下留情,如此方不失热血男儿的本色。”
  “大丈夫有所为而有所不为,贤弟说得好!”周泰击掌大笑道。
  次日,我别过周泰,与那些一同回城的一众溃兵乘着小船从水路赶往曲阿,孙策大军渡江南来,走的是陆路,水路相对来说要安全得多,所以这一路上倒是平静的很,而且,走水路我还可以躺在船舱中静养。
  自我与周泰一番大战后,这些与我一同从战场上逃回的士卒对我个个佩服得紧,他们知道如果没有我的话,莫说安然回家,就是小命都不一定保得住。
  看见曲阿城墙的时侯,已是在五日之后,敷上周泰给我的金创药,我的伤已好了个七七八八,虽然左胁处不时还隐隐作痛。

'She never did so before,' at last said Bessie, turning to the
Abigail.
'But it was always in her,' was the reply. 'I've told Missis
often my opinion about the child, and Missis agreed with me. She's
an underhand little thing: I never saw a girl of her age with so
much cover.'

Bessie answered not; but ere long, addressing me, she said-
'You ought to be aware, Miss, that you are under obligations to
Mrs. Reed: she keeps you: if she were to turn you off, you would
have to go to the poorhouse.'
I had nothing to say to these words: they were not new to me: my

¡¡¡¡ It was done, and they were gone. Sir Thomas felt as an anxious father must feel, and was indeed experiencing much of the agitation which his wife had been apprehensive of for herself, but had fortunately escaped. Mrs. Norris, most happy to assist in the duties of the day, by spending it at the Park to support her sister's spirits, and drinking the health of Mr. and Mrs. Rushworth in a supernumerary glass or two, was all joyous delight; for she had

made the match; she had done everything; and no one would have supposed, from her confident triumph, that she had ever heard of conjugal infelicity in her life, or could have the smallest insight into the disposition of the niece who had been brought up under her eye. ¡¡¡¡ The plan of the young couple was to proceed, after a few days, to Brighton, and take a house there for some weeks. Every public place was new to Maria, and Brighton is almost as gay in winter as in summer. When the novelty of amusement there was over, it would be time for the wider range of London.

She had just copied them with great care, and had destroyed the old manuscript, so that Amy's bonfire had consumed the loving work of several years. It seemed a small loss to others, but to Jo it was a dreadful calamity, and she felt that it never could be made up to her. Beth mourned as for a departed kitten, and Meg refused to defend her pet; Mrs. March looked grave and grieved, and Amy felt that no one would love her till she had asked pardon for the act which she now regretted more than any of them. ¡¡¡¡When the tea-bell rang Jo appeared, looking so grim and unapproachable, that it took all Amy's courage to say meekly: ¡¡¡¡`Please

"Now, Miss Eyelesbarrow, you went into the Long Barn to find some paint. Is that right? And after having found the paint you got a crowbar, forced up the lid of this sarcophagus and found the body. What were you looking for in the sarcophagus?"
"I was looking for a body," said Lucy.
"You were looking for a body – and you found one! Doesn't that seem to you a very extraordinary story?"
"Oh, yes, it is an extraordinary story. Perhaps you will let me explain it to you."
"I certainly think you had better do so."

Lucy gave him a precise recital of the events which had led up to her sensational discovery.
The inspector summed it up in an outraged voice.
"You were engaged by an elderly lady to obtain a post here and to search the house and grounds for a dead body? Is that right?"
"Yes."
"Who is this elderly lady?"
"Miss Jane Marple. She is at present living at 4 Madison Road."
The inspector wrote it down.
"You expect me to believe this story?"

After tea, Lucy rose.
"I'll be getting back," she said. "As I've already told you, there's no one actually living in the Rutherford Hall who could be the man we're looking for. there's only an old man and a middle-aged woman, and an old deaf gardener."
"I didn't say he was actually living there," said Miss Marple. "All I mean is, that he's someone who knows Rutherford Hall very well. But we can go into that after you've found the body."
"You seem to assume quite confidently that I shall find it," said Lucy. "I don't feel nearly so optimistic."
"I'm sure you will succeed, my dear Lucy. You are such an efficient person."
"In some ways, but I haven't had any experience in looking for bodies."
Van Gogh Painting
I'm sure all it needs is a little common sense," said Miss Marple encouragingly.
Lucy looked at her, then laughed. Miss Marple smiled back at her.
Lucy set to work systematically the next morning.
She poked round outhouse, prodded the briars which wreathed the old pigsties, and was peering into the boiler room under the greenhouse when she heard a dry cough and turned to find old Hillman, the gardener, looking at her disapprovingly.
"You be careful you don't get a nasty fall, miss," he warned her. "Them steps isn't safe, and you was up in the loft just now and then floor there ain't safe neither."Van Gogh Painting

"No, but I am their friend, although I live in the land of the North. When they saw the Witch of the East was dead the Munchkins sent a swift messenger to me, and I came at once. I am the Witch of the North."
"Oh, gracious!" cried Dorothy. "Are you a real witch?"
"Yes, indeed," answered the little woman. "But I am a good witch, and the people love me. I am not as powerful as the Wicked Witch was who ruled here, or I should have set the people free myself."

"But I thought all witches were wicked," said the girl, who was half frightened at facing a real witch. "Oh, no, that is a great mistake. There were only four witches in all the Land of Oz, and two of them, those who live in the North and the South, are good witches. I know this is true, for I am one of them myself, and cannot be mistaken. Those who dwelt in the East and the West were, indeed, wicked witches; but now that you have killed one of them, there is but one Wicked Witch in all the Land of Oz -- the one who lives in the West."

Tom's poor mother and sisters traveled the same road out of his mind. At first he pined for them, sorrowed for them, longed to see them; but later, the thought of their coming some day in their rags and dirt, and betraying him with their kisses, and pulling him down from his lofty place and dragging him back to penury and degradation and the slums, made him shudder. At last they ceased to trouble his thoughts almost wholly. And he was content, even glad; for, whenever their mournful and accusing faces did rise before him now, they made him feel more despicable than the worms that crawl.

At midnight of the 19th of February, Tom Canty was sinking to sleep in his rich bed in the palace, guarded by his loyal vassals, and surrounded by the pomps of royalty, a happy boy; for to-morrow was the day appointed for his solemn crowning as king of England. At that same hour, Edward, the true king, hungry and thirsty, soiled and draggled, worn with travel, and clothed in rags and shreds-his share of the results of the riot-was wedged in among a crowd of people who were watching with deep interest certain hurrying gangs of workmen who streamed in and out of Westminster Abbey, busy as ants; they were making the last preparation for the royal coronation.

"I'll just run out," said Bunting apologetically, "and see what happened at that inquest to-day. Besides, they may have a clue about the horrible affair last night. Chandler was full of it - when he wasn't talking about Daisy and Margaret, that is. He's on to-night, luckily not till twelve o'clock; plenty of time to escort the two of 'em back after the play. Besides, he said he'll put them into a cab and blow the expense, if the panto' goes on too long for him to take 'em home."

"On to-night?". repeated Mrs. Bunting. "Whatever for?"
"Well, you see, The Avenger's always done 'em in couples, so to speak. They've got an idea that he'll have a try again to-night. However, even so, Joe's only on from midnight till five o'clock. Then he'll go and turn in a bit before going off to fetch Daisy, Fine thing to be young, ain't it, Ellen?"

Van Gogh Painting Mrs. Bunting suddenly remembered a chat one of the newspaper men had had with a person who slept under this woman's room. That person had unkindly said she felt sure that Lizzie Cole had not got up that night - that she had made up the whole story. She, the speaker, slept lightly, and that night had been tending a sick child. Accordingly, she would have heard if there had been either the scream described by Lizzie Cole, or the sound of Lizzie Cole jumping out of bed.

"We quite understand that you think you saw the" - the coroner hesitated - "the individual who had just perpetrated these terrible crimes. But what we want to have from you is a description of him.

"Perhaps," replied Rouletabille; but I could see he was thinking of something else.
"But what about us?" I exclaimed. "How do we know that we have not been drugged?"
"Do you feel indisposed?" Rouletabille asked me coolly.
"Not in the least."
"Do you feel any inclination to go to sleep?"
"None whatever."

Well, then, my friend, smoke this excellent cigar."
And he handed me a choice Havana, one Monsieur Darzac had given,him, while he lit his briarwood - his eternal briarwood.
We remained in his room until about ten o'clock without a word passing between us. Buried in an armchair Rouletabille sat and smoked steadily, his brow in thought and a far-away look in his eyes. On the stroke of ten he took off his boots and signalled to me to do the same. As we stood in our socks he said, in so low a tone that I guessed, rather than heard, the word:

Quick as a flash, Pinocchio disappeared into the Marionette Theater. And then something happened which almost caused a riot.
The curtain was up and the performance had started.
Harlequin and Pulcinella were reciting on the stage and, as usual, they were threatening each other with sticks and blows.
The theater was full of people, enjoying the spectacle and laughing till they cried at the antics of the two Marionettes

The play continued for a few minutes, and then suddenly, without any warning, Harlequin stopped talking. Turning toward the audience, he pointed to the rear of the orchestra, yelling wildly at the same time:
"Look, look! Am I asleep or awake? Or do I really see Pinocchio there?"
"Yes, yes! It is Pinocchio!" screamed Pulcinella.
"It is! It is!" shrieked Signora Rosaura, peeking in from the side of the stage.

我永远永远,不要喜欢或者爱上这宫廷里的任何一个人。因为你们,除了我,还爱着其他的东西。”
“为了你,我放弃。”他是真诚的吧。
可是,杨过仍旧会离开古墓,我不要最后成为他抱怨的对象。
当爱已成往事,那么,将会比恨更让人不堪。
早上起来,头痛欲裂。这就是酒醉的后遗症之二。

“那可怎办?”贺什脱口而出,随即又道:“我是说,她若走了,这里的人都会舍不得。”
“希望她可以落选吧!”胤禟拍着贺什的肩膀笑道:“我想,以贺什贝子的能力应该不难。”说着便和胤礻我擦身而去。
