Black made a startled movement that almost dislodged Crookshanks; Harry gripped his wand convulsively –
布萊克大吃一驚,身子一動,克魯克山險些被晃下來;哈利痙攣地抓住魔杖——
Do it now! said a voice in his head – but the footsteps were thundering up the stairs and Harry still hadn't done it.
現在就干!他腦子里有一個聲音在說——但是雷鳴似的腳步聲上來了,而哈利還是沒有動手。
The door of the room burst open in a shower of red sparks and Harry wheeled around as Professor Lupin came hurtling into the room, his face bloodless, his wand raised and ready.
房間的門在一陣火花迸射中被撞開了,哈利飛快轉身,這時盧平教授撞進房間,臉上毫無血色,魔杖舉著,隨時準備著。
His eyes flickered over Ron, lying on the floor, over Hermione, cowering next to the door, to Harry, standing there with his wand covering Black, and then to Black himself, crumpled and bleeding at Harry's feet.
他的目光閃爍著掠過躺在地板上的羅恩、赫敏,然后哆嗦著掠過房門,掠過哈利,這時哈利還站在那里用魔杖指定布萊克,然后,目光掠到布萊克身上。這時布萊克在哈利腳下,崩潰了,還流著血。
'Expelliarmus!' Lupin shouted. Harry's wand flew once more out of his hand; so did the two Hermione was holding.
“除你武器!”盧平大叫。哈利的魔杖再度從他手里飛脫;赫敏手里拿的那兩根也是一樣。

Lupin caught them all deftly, then moved into the room, staring at Black, who still had Crookshanks lying protectively across his chest.
盧平敏捷地抓住這三根魔杖,然后走進房間,瞪眼看著布萊克,克魯克山仍舊蹲在他胸膛上保護著他。
Harry stood there, feeling suddenly empty. He hadn't done it. His nerve had failed him. Black was going to be handed back to the Dementors.
哈利站在當地,突然感到很空虛。他沒有完成那件事。他緊張得沒做成。布萊克要被交給攝魂怪了。
Then Lupin spoke, in an odd voice, a voice that shook with some suppressed emotion:'Where is he, Sirius?'
然后盧平說話了,聲音古怪,是帶有某種壓抑著感情的聲音:“他在哪里,小天狼星?”
Harry looked quickly at Lupin. He didn't understand what Lupin meant. Who was Lupin talking about? He turned to look at Black again.
哈利趕快看著盧平。他不明白盧平是什么意思。盧平說的是誰?他轉身又去看布萊克。
Black's face was quite expressionless. For a few seconds, he didn't move at all. Then, very slowly, he raised his empty hand, and pointed straight at Ron.
布萊克臉上沒有表情。過了幾秒鐘,他一動不動。然后,他很慢地舉起那只空閑的手,直指著羅恩。
