"Never heard a sound," the younger of the afternoon callers admitted, getting rid of his empty cup and leaning forward in his low chair. |||||||||посетители|признал||избавляясь от||||||наклонившись||||| never|had||||younger||||visitors|acknowledged||disposing of||||||||||| nunca|ouvi|um|som||mais jovem|dos||da tarde|os visitantes|admitiu|desfazendo-se|desfazendo-se|de|sua|copo vazio|copo|e|inclinando-se|para frente|na|sua cadeira baixa|baixa|cadeira baixa |||||||||Besucher|gab zu|sich||||||||vorne|||niedrigen| mai|||suono|||||||ammise||||||||||||| ||||||||بعد الظهر|الزوار|||||||||||||| ||||||||||визнали||||||||||||| 決して|聞いたことがない||||若い|||||||||||||||||| "No he oído ni un ruido", admitió el más joven de los llamantes de la tarde, deshaciéndose de su taza vacía e inclinándose hacia delante en su silla baja. "音は聞こえなかった," 午後の訪問者の若い方が認めて、空のカップを置き、低い椅子に身を乗り出した。 "Nigdy nie słyszałem żadnego dźwięku - przyznał młodszy z popołudniowych rozmówców, odstawiając pustą filiżankę i pochylając się do przodu na niskim krześle. "Hiç ses duymadım," diye itiraf etti öğleden sonra arayanlardan genç olanı, boş bardağından kurtulup alçak sandalyesinde öne doğru eğilerek. “从来没有听到过任何声音，”下午来电者中的那个年轻人承认道，他扔掉了空杯子，靠在他的矮椅上。 "No more tea, thank you, Miss Fairclough. ||||||Фэрклоу ||||||Fairclough ||||||فيركلو ||||||Fairclough ||||||Miss Fairclough "お茶はいりません、フェアクラフさん。 "Artık çay yok, teşekkürler, Bayan Fairclough. “不要再喝茶了，谢谢你，费尔克劳小姐。 Done splendidly, thanks. |отлично| |very well| erledigt|herrlich| |بشكل رائع| |чудово| |espléndidamente| 素晴らしかった、ありがとう。 Harika yapılmış, teşekkürler.

Captain Griffiths shook his head. |Гриффитс|покачал|| |Griffiths||| |غريفيث||| |Captain Griffiths||| He was a man considerably older than his questioner, with long, nervous face, and thick black hair streaked with grey. ||||значительно||||задающий вопросы|||||||||покрытый полосами|| ||||deutlich||||Fragesteller|||||||||durchzogen|| ||||بشكل ملحوظ||||سائله|||||و||||مُشَبَّع|مع| ||||much||||the person asking||||||||||| His fingers were bony, his complexion, for a soldier, curiously sallow, and notwithstanding his height, which was considerable, he was awkward, at times almost uncouth. |||костлявый|его|||||странно|желтоватый||несмотря на||рост|||значительный|||неуклюжий||||неловкий |||knochig||Hautfarbe||||merkwürdig|blass||trotz||Größe||||||||||grobschlächtig أصابعه|||عظام||بشرته|||||شاحب||رغم|||التي||ملحوظ|||||||خشن |||||skin tone|||military person|strangely|sickly yellow||||||||||||||unrefined |||||colorito|||||||nonostante|||||||||||| Пальцы у него были костлявые, цвет лица, как у солдата, удивительно бледный, и, несмотря на солидный рост, он был неуклюж, а порой почти безрогий.

"I had a letter this morning," she replied. "She seems to have heard nothing at all encouraging so far." "And you haven't heard from Major Felstead himself, I suppose?" ||||||Major Felstead||| ||||||فيلستيد||| The girl shook her head.

"Not a line," she sighed. "It's two months now since we last had a letter."

The door of the comfortable library in which they were seated was suddenly thrown open.

A trophy! Just look, Mr. Harrison and Captain Griffiths! I found it in a bush, not twenty yards from where the observation car came down." Helen turned the hat around in amused bewilderment. هيلين||||||مرتبك|حيرة |||||||sorpresa

"But, my dear child," she exclaimed, "this is nothing but an ordinary hat! People who travel in Zeppelins don't wear things like that. |||in|||||| How do you do, Mr. come|||| Somerfield?" سومرفيلد Somerfield she added, smiling at the young man who had followed Nora into the room.

"Don't they!" the latter retorted, with an air of superior knowledge. الـ||رد|||||| |quest'ultimo|rispose|||||| |||||||вищого| "Just look here!" She turned down the lining and showed it to them. "What do you make of that?" she asked triumphantly. ||بفخر

Helen gazed at the gold-printed letters a little incredulously. |||||||||ungläubig |||||||||بشك

"Read it out," Nora insisted. Helen obeyed:

"Schmidt, شميت Berlin,

Unter den Linden, 127." تحت|بين|ليندن sotto|| "That sounds German," she admitted. "It's a trophy, all right," Nora declared. "One of the crew—probably the Commander—must have come on board in a hurry and changed into uniform after they had started." "It is my painful duty, Miss Nora," Harrison announced solemnly, "to inform you, on behalf of Captain Griffiths, that all articles of whatsoever description, found in the vicinity of Dutchman's Common, which might possibly have belonged to any one in the Zeppelin, must be sent at once to the War Office." ||||||||||||||||||||||||||der|Nähe||||||||||||||||||||||| |||||||هاريسون||بجدية||||||||||||||الوصف||||المنطقة||||||||||||||||||||||| |||болісний||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| "Rubbish!" spazzatura Сміття!

"Don't break the regiment up altogether," Somerfield begged, with a little catch in his voice. "All very well for you two to be funny," Nora went on, revisiting the chocolate box, "but you've heard about the Seaforths coming, haven't you? ||||||||||||إعادة زيارة||الشوكولاتة|||||||سييفورث|||أنت ||||||||||||riprendendo|||||||||||| I adore kilts, and so does Helen; don't you, Helen?" ||Kilts||||||| أنا|أحب|التنورات الاسكتلندية||||||| "Every woman does," Helen admitted, smiling. "I suppose the child really can keep the hat, can't she?" she added, turning to the Commandant.

"Officially the matter is outside my cognizance," he declared. ||||||Kenntnis|| رسمياً||||||اختصاصي|| "I shall have nothing to say." The two young men exchanged glances. ||||wechselten| |||||نظرات ||||scambiarono|sguardi

"A hat," Somerfield ruminated, "especially a Homburg hat, is scarcely an appurtenance of warfare." |||überlegte||||||kaum||||Kriegführung |||فكّر||||||بالكاد||ملحق|| |||||||||||appartenenza||guerra His brother officer stood for a moment looking gravely at the object in question. ||||||||ernst||||| |||||||ينظر|بجدية||||| Then he winked at Somerfield and sighed. ||غمز|||| ||ha fatto l'occhiolino|||| ||поморгнув||||
