20、a week agoMr Utterson looked at him thoughtfully，but said nothingmore1 一扇神秘的门 律师厄特森先生是个不爱说话、一本正经的人。在陌生人面前，他非常腼腆，不爱流露自己的情感，可当着朋友，他的眼睛总闪烁着关心与真诚的光芒，虽然这种真与善在他说的话中不大找得到，可在他的待人处世中一点一滴都没有漏掉。在生活上，他从不放纵享乐，吃喝也很随意、简单；即使很喜欢看戏，他也有20年没有进过剧院了。可是，他对别人的缺点却是宽容得不能再宽容了，总是想着去帮助他们而不是责备他们。作为一名律师，他经常是罪犯走进监狱或者踏上黄泉之前见到的最后一个好

21、人，这些人的心里会一直保留对他的温文尔雅和公正无私的记忆。厄特森先生最好的朋友是他的一个远房表亲，叫理查德思菲尔德。这个人是城里出名的“爱热闹”，交际场里的老手。谁也搞不明白他们为何居然是朋友，他们可真有天壤之别。但他们却经常一起散步，一走就是好远，穿过伦敦的街道，安安静静地做着伴。有一次，他们散步走到伦敦闹市区一条狭窄的背街上。这条街干净、热闹，人们也和善，一家家亮亮堂堂的小商店，门环锃明透亮。但是就在街道的尽头，有一幢阴暗、神秘、没有窗户的楼房，门上既没有铃也没门环，还到处是灰，显然已好久没人打扫了。脏兮兮的孩子们在门口疯玩疯闹，也没人开门轰他们走。一天，他俩走过这幢房子，恩菲尔德指着问道

22、：“你注意过那儿吗？它让我想起一个奇怪的故事。”“哦，是吗？”厄特森先生说，“给我讲讲。”“好吧。”恩菲尔德先生开始讲了，“那是个冬天的早上，天黑漆漆的，大概3点钟吧，我正要回家，突然看见两个人。头一个是个矮个子，正沿着街边走，第二个是个小姑娘，跑得很急。两个人一下撞到了一起，小孩儿摔倒了。接着，可怕的事发生了，那个人穿着沉甸甸的靴子，冷冷地从孩子身上压了过去，小姑娘躺在地上尖叫着。做这种事真残忍。我从后面追上来，抓住那人，把他拽了回来，这时一小群人也围到了又哭又叫的孩子身边。那个人非常镇静，一脸漠然，还狠狠地瞪了我一眼，真是让我反胃。孩子的家人这会儿也赶到了，还来了一个医生。原来小姑娘是去请

23、医生给邻居家病人看病的，她正要回家。“孩子与其说是伤着了不如说是吓着了。医生是这么说的。你也许以为故事到这里就该结束了。可是你想，我对那个小个子十分厌恶，小姑娘的家人也一样当然，这很正常，可连医生（他看上去那么和善、安静），也盯着那个罪犯看，好像恨不能把他给杀了。“我和医生彼此心照不宣，都冲着那人大声指责，并声称要让整个伦敦都知道这事，让人人都唾弃他的名字。“他阴森森地瞪了我们一眼，还是一副不可一世的样子，开个价吧，他说。“我们让他答应付给孩子家100英镑。他又翻了我们一眼，把我们领到那边的那扇门口，掏出钥匙，进了楼。不一会儿，他又出来了，递给我们10镑金币和一张康茨银行的支票，上面写着90英

24、镑，支票上的名字是大家都很熟的人。“你看，医生满腹怀疑地说，够奇怪的，早上4点，一个人走进一所空房子，然后又拿着另一个人签名的支票出来了，足足快100镑呢！“放你的心吧，一脸凶相的矮个子说，我和你们等着银行开门，看我自己兑钱好了。“我们离开那儿，医生、罪犯和我到我家挨过了后半夜。到了早上，我们一道去了银行，支票是真的，没问题，钱很快就转给小姑娘家了。”“哦，是这样，”厄特森先生说。“是啊！”恩菲尔德说，“这事真怪。明明肇事者是个冷酷、残忍的家伙，可签支票的人却是伦敦有名善良、慷慨的人。这样的人怎么会把支票给一个罪犯呢？”“你们也不知道支票的主人是不是住在那幢房子里？”厄特森先生问。“我可不喜欢

25、问，”他的朋友说，“根据我的经验，提太多的问题可没什么好的。万一得到的答案既令人厌恶又令人不安，那该如何是好？但我还是稍微研究了一下那个地方。它看起来不像一所房子，没别的门，唯一使用那扇门的人就是我刚才和你讲的那个家伙。房子一侧有三扇窗户，可以看到下面的小院，窗户都关着，但一直干干净净的。还有个烟囱常冒着烟，所以肯定有人在那儿住。”两个人接着走下去，厄特森忽然说：“恩菲尔德，你那条规矩挺不错，就是别问太多问题。尽管如此，我还是想问问踩着孩子身体走过去的那个人叫什么。”“当然了！”恩菲尔德说，“他告诉我们他叫海德。”“他什么模样？”“这一下子可说不好，虽然我清清楚楚记得他长得什么样。他长得很怪，

26、个子又矮，身体粗壮，他的相貌哪儿有点不对劲，让人感到丑陋，不舒服不，是让人憎恶的那种。我一看到他，马上就不喜欢他。”厄特森先生想了好一会儿，问道：“你肯定他用了钥匙吗？”“瞧你问的！”恩菲尔德一脸诧异的样子。“我知道我这么问有点怪，”朋友说，“可你想，我并没问你支票上签的是谁的名字，因为我心里已经明白了”“那你怎么不早说呢？”朋友不无恼怒地说，“甭管怎么说，那家伙的确有钥匙，上礼拜我还看见他开门来着。”厄特森先生心事重重地看了他一眼，但没再多说什么。Chapter 2 In search of Mr HydeAfter dinner that evening Mr Utterson went

27、into his office and unlocked a cupboard He took out an envelopeIt contained the will of Doctor Henry Jekyll，and was writtenin the doctor's own handwritingIf I die，or if I disappear for more than three months，thewill began，I wish to leave everything I own to my dearfriend Edward HydeThis will had

28、 both worried and annoyed Mr Utterson To alawyer it was an unusual and dangerous kind of will It wasbad enough when Edward Hyde was only an unknown name，but now that the lawyer knew something about Hyde， the willworried him more than ever It had seemed like madness before；now it began to seem shamef

30、coffee and talking companionably of this and that At last MrUtterson mentioned the thoughts that were worrying himI suppose，Lanyon，he said，that you and I are HenryJekyll's oldest friends？I suppose so，said Doctor Lanyon，but I don't often seehim nowReally？ said Mr Utterson in surpriseI thought

31、 you andhe were interested in the same thingsWe were at one time，said Doctor LanyonBut morethan ten years ago Henry Jekyll became toowell，imaginativefor me He developed some strange，wild， unscientific ideas Itold him so，and I've seen very little of him since thenMr Utterson looked at his friend&

34、mThe facelessness of that figure worried himdeeplyVery well，Mr Hyde，said the lawyer to himself，I willfind you，and I will see your face for myselfDuring the next few weeks Mr Utterson spent many hoursin the narrow street where Enfield had seen HydeHe waitedpatiently near the mysterious door， hoping f

37、ou must have heard mynamemay I come in with you？Doctor Jekyll is not at home，replied Mr HydeHow didyou know me？he added sharplyFirst let me see your face，replied the lawyerMr Hyde hesitated for a moment， then he stood under thestreet light and the lawyer saw his faceThank you， saidMr UttersonNow I s

41、e was a squareof handsome old housesOne of these was DoctorJekyll's house，and Mr Utterson knocked at the front door The servant answered and told him that Doctor Jekyll was not athomeI saw Mr Hyde go in by the laboratory door in the street atthe back of the house， said the lawyerThat's right

42、，Mr Utterson，replied the servant MrHyde has his own key， and comes and goes when he likes Wehave orders from Doctor Jekyll to obey himMr Utterson walked home more worried than everA fortnight later Doctor Jekyll gave a dinner party for a fewold friendsMr Utterson was among them and he remained after

43、 the others had leftI've been wanting to speak to you for some time，Jekyll，said the lawyer，about your willDoctor Jekyll was a tall， wellmade man of fifty with asmooth， kindly faceMy poor friend，he said，you doworry unnecessarily， you know Like poor Lanyon when Itold him about my new ideas“Imagina

47、nt you to promise tomake sure that he inherits my moneyI cannot pretend that I shall ever like him， said thelawyerI'm not asking you to like him，said his friendI onlyask you to help him，when I'm goneI promise，said Mr Utterson sadly2 寻找海德先生 那天晚上，吃了饭，厄特森先生走进自己的办公室，打开柜橱上的锁，拿出一个信封，里面装的是亨利杰基尔博士的遗

48、嘱，是立书人亲笔写的。“如果我死了，或者三个月不见踪影，”遗嘱上写道，“我希望把所有一切留给我亲爱的朋友爱德华海德。”这份遗嘱让厄特森先生坐立不安。作为一名律师，他觉得这样的遗嘱既少见又危险。直到今天以前，他对这个爱德华海德一无所知，这就够糟的了。可现在知道了一些有关海德的事情，遗嘱就更让他生气了。如果说以前这一切看起来是疯狂的，那么现在这个名字就是令人发指的。厄特森先生心事重重地把文件放进柜子里，穿上大衣，去找他的老朋友兰宁医生。兰宁医生正在品着饭后的咖啡。“哈！老朋友，快进来！”他大声嚷着。他们俩从上学的时候起就认识。俩人坐在一起，一边喝咖啡，一边闲扯着，最后厄特森先生谈起了自己心中的不安。“我想，兰宁，”他说，“你我应该是亨利杰
