Mr. Utterson was a lawyer who was good-natured to his friends. His companions were usually distant relations from his own family, or friends that he had known for a long time.
One friend in particular was Mr. Richard Enfield, a distant relative, and a well-known man in London. The two men were very different, but they always went for a long Sunday walk together. People who saw them out on their walk reported that they rarely spoke. However, they would even cancel other appointments in order to go and enjoy their walks without interruption.
One day, while they were out on their walk together, they were strolling (漫步) along a small quiet street. It was all clean and attractive except for one building two storeys high.
As they pasd, Mr. Enfield asked Mr. Utterson if he had ever noticed the dirty door, becau it reminded him of a very strange story.
“No,dm杂志” said Mr. Utterson. “What story was that?”
“Well,” replied Mr. Enfield. “Once, I was coming home this way at about 3 am on a dark winter’s night, and the whole area was very quiet and derted. But then suddenly I saw two people. One was a small unpleasant-looking man walking along this street at a good speed. The cond was a small girl, about eight or nine years old, running as fast as she could. Well, the two met at the corner and ran into each other. The unusual thing was that instead of stopping and apologizing, the little man, quite on purpo, stamped (踩) hard on the girl as she lay on the ground, screaming with pain.”
“It was a terrible thing to e. I shouted out and chad the man, caught him and brought him back to where he had knocked down the girl. The noi had attracted a small crowd of people, including some of the girl’s family, who were very angry with the man. He did not apologize, nor was he sorry for what had happened. We all told him that we would ma
ke a lot of trouble for him if he did not pay for his actions.”
“The man agreed to pay one hundred pounds to the family. As he did not have that amount of money with him, he said he had to go and get a cheque. He went to the hou with the door we are looking at now, and came out with another man’s cheque for almost one hundred pounds at four o’职业价值观测评clock in the morning? Therefore we made him stay at my hou until the banks opened. Then we went to cash the cheque. I handed it over mylf and was sure that it would be a forgery, but to my surpri, it was real.”油漆危害 梦见毛驴
