I propose to go up there presently. I have arranged it with the estimable Ames, who is by no means wholehearted about Barker. I shall sit in that room and see if its atmosphere brings me inspiration. I'm a believer in the genius loci. You smile, Friend Watson.
我打算现在就去那里。我已经和那个令人尊敬的管家艾姆斯商量过了，他决不是巴克的心腹。我要坐在那间屋里，看看室中的气氛是否能给我带来一些灵感。华生，我的朋友，你笑吧。我是笃信守护神的。
