Harry left the locker room alone some time later, to take his Nimbus Two Thousand back to the broomshed.
一小時之后，哈利獨自離開更衣室，要把他的光輪2000送回掃帚棚。
He couldn't ever remember feeling happier.
他的心情比任何時候都要歡快。
He'd really done something to be proud of now—no one could say he was just a famous name any more.
他總算做了一件真正值得自豪的事——以后再也不會有人說他只不過是有一個響亮的名字而已。
The evening air had never smelled so sweet.
夜晚的空氣從未像現在這樣甜蜜。
He walked over the damp grass, reliving the last hour in his head, which was a happy blur:
他走過潮濕的草地，剛才一小時的情景又在腦海中重現，是一些模糊不清的幸福的片斷：
Gryffindors running to lift him onto their shoulders; Ron and Hermione in the distance, jumping up and down, Ron cheering through a heavy nosebleed.
格蘭芬多學生跑過來把他架在他們的肩膀上；羅恩和赫敏在遠處跳上跳下，羅恩一邊淌著鼻血，一邊歡呼雀躍。
Harry had reached the shed. He leaned against the wooden door and looked up at Hogwarts, with its windows glowing red in the setting sun.
哈利已經來到了掃帚棚。他靠在木門上，抬頭望著霍格沃茨，那些窗戶在夕陽的輝映下閃著紅光。
Gryffindor in the lead. He'd done it, he'd shown Snape....
格蘭芬多隊領先了。他成功了，他使斯內普看到——
And speaking of Snape... A hooded figure came swiftly down the front steps of the castle.
說到斯內普—— 一個戴著兜帽的身影迅速走下城堡的正門臺階，
Clearly not wanting to be seen, it walked as fast as possible toward the forbidden forest.
顯然是不想讓人看見，飛快地直奔禁林而去。
Harry's victory faded from his mind as he watched. He recognized the figure's prowling walk.
哈利注視著，心頭勝利的喜悅漸漸消失了。他認出了那個身影的鬼鬼祟祟的步態，
Snape, sneaking into the forest while everyone else was at dinner—what was going on?
斯內普，他趁別人吃晚飯的時候，偷偷溜往禁林——他想干什么？
Harry jumped back on his Nimbus Two Thousand and took off.
哈利跳回到飛天掃帚上，騰地起飛了。
Gliding silently over the castle he saw Snape enter the forest at a run. He followed.
他悄無聲息地滑過城堡上空，看見斯內普奔跑著進了禁林。他跟了過去。
