'Well, third-years at Hogwarts are allowed to visit Hogsmeade, but my aunt and uncle didn't sign the permission form.
“好吧，三年級學生可以訪問霍格莫德，但是，我的姨媽和姨父沒有在我的同意表上簽字。
D'you think you could?'
您能給我簽嗎？”
Fudge was looking uncomfortable.
福吉看上去一副不舒服的樣子。
'Ah,' he said. 'No. No, I'm very sorry, Harry, but as I'm not your parent or guardian –'
“啊，”他說，“不，不，我很抱歉，哈利，因為我不是你的家長，也不是你的監護人——”
'But you're the Minister for Magic,' said Harry eagerly. 'If you gave me permission –'
“可您是魔法部部長啊，”哈利急切地說，“如果您允許我——”
'No, I'm sorry, Harry, but rules are rules,' said Fudge flatly.
“不，抱歉，哈利，因為規定就是規定，”福吉斷然說，
'Perhaps you'll be able to visit Hogsmeade next year.
“也許明年你可以訪問霍格莫德。
In fact, I think it best if you don't... yes... well, I'll be off.
其實，我認為你最好是不……是……好吧，我要走了。
Enjoy your stay, Harry.'
在這里好好過。哈利。”
And with a last smile and shake of Harry's hand, Fudge left the room.
福吉最后一次對哈利微微一笑，又握了一下手，就離開了房間。
Tom now moved forward, beaming at Harry.
于是湯姆走上前來，對哈利微笑著。
'If you'll follow me, Mr Potter,' he said.
“波特先生，請跟我來，”湯姆說道，
'I've already taken your things up...'
“我已經把你的東西都搬上去了。”
Harry followed Tom up a handsome wooden staircase to a door with a brass number eleven on it, which Tom unlocked and opened for him.
哈利跟隨湯姆走上一道漂亮的木樓梯，來到一間門口有一個黃銅牌子標明是十一號的房間，湯姆為哈利打開鎖，開了房門。
Inside was a very comfortable-looking bed, some highly polished oak furniture,
房間里面有一張看上去很舒服的床，幾件很光亮的橡木家具，
a cheerfully crackling fire and, perched on top of the wardrobe —
壁爐里的火燒得噼啪作響，衣櫥頂上站立著——
'Hedwig!' Harry gasped.
“海德薇！”哈利驚喜地叫道。
