Snape pointed at the parchment, on which the words of Messrs Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs were still shining.
斯內普指指那張羊皮紙，羊皮紙上月亮臉、大腳板和尖頭叉子等人的字跡還在發光。
An odd, closed expression appeared on Lupin's face.
盧平臉上出現了一種古怪的、神密的表情。
'Well?' said Snape. Lupin continued to stare at the map.
“唔？”斯內普說。盧平繼續看著那張地圖。
Harry had the impression that Lupin was doing some very quick thinking.
哈利覺得盧平在迅速地考慮著什么。
'Well?' said Snape again. 'This parchment is plainly full of Dark Magic.
“唔？”斯內普又說，“這張羊皮紙上肯定滿是邪法。
This is supposed to be your area of expertise, Lupin. Where do you imagine Potter got such a thing?'
這應該屬于你的專業范圍，盧平。你認為哈利是從哪里搞到這么一種東西的？”
Lupin looked up and, by the merest half glance in Harry's direction, warned him not to interrupt.
盧平抬頭一望，僅僅向哈利那個方向瞥了半眼，就警告他不要插嘴。
'Full of Dark Magic?' he repeated mildly. 'Do you really think so, Severus?
“滿是邪法嗎？”他溫和地重復了一句，“你真的這樣想嗎，西弗勒斯？
It looks to me as though it is merely a piece of parchment that insults anybody who tries to read it.
在我看來這好像只是一張羊皮紙，誰想讀它，它就侮辱誰。
Childish, but surely not dangerous? I imagine Harry got it from a joke-shop —'
孩子氣，但肯定沒有危險吧？我想哈利是從專賣開玩笑材料的店里得到……”
'Indeed?' said Snape. His jaw had gone rigid with anger. 'You think a joke-shop could supply him with such a thing?
“是嗎？”斯內普問。他的下巴因為惱怒而發僵。“你以為店里能向他提供這種東西？
You don't think it more likely that he got it directly from the manufacturers?'
你不認為他是從制造者手里直接得到的嗎？”
Harry didn't understand what Snape was talking about. Nor, apparently, did Lupin.
哈利不懂斯內普在說什么。盧平似乎也一樣。
'You mean, from Mr Wormtail or one of these people?' he said. 'Harry, do you know any of these men?'
“你的意思是說，從蟲尾巴先生或者是這些人之中的一個嗎？”他問，“哈利，你認識這些人嗎？”
'No,' said Harry quickly.
“不認識。”哈利趕快說。
'You see, Severus?' said Lupin, turning back to Snape. 'It looks like a Zonko product to me —'
“你看，西弗勒斯？”盧平說著，又轉向斯內普。“我看它像是佐科的產品——”
