Sherlock Holmes: The Blue Diamond
【原文】Chapter Three --- Mr Henry Baker 02
"No, I don't think he is. I believe he's an innocent man. I don't think he knew there was an expensive diamond in his goose - a jewel worth more than 20000 pounds. But let's wait and see. Perhaps Mr Baker's going to answer our advertisement this evening and then we can learn something more about him."
"All right," I said. "I can come back after work this evening. I'm very interested in the answer to this case."
"Good," replied Holmes. "Dinner is at 7 o'clock."
I got to Baker Street at 6.30 that evening. There was a tall man already at Sherlock Holmes's front door when I came down the street. He wore a long winter coat and had a Scottish hat on his head. When I arrived next to him the door opened. Mrs Hudson, Holmes's housekeeper, said "Good evening" to the two of us, and we went in and upstairs to Holmes's room.
