He was silent for a minute or two (он молчал с минуту или две: «он был молчалив с минуту или две»). Then he said (затем он сказал): "M. Poirot's the man for my money (мсье Пуаро — это человек для моих денег). I've got a plan (у меня есть план). But we'll talk of that later (но мы поговорим об этом позже)."
He went along the passage (он прошел вдоль коридора) and tapped at the same door (и постучал в ту же дверь) as the doctor had entered (/в которую/ вошел доктор).
I hesitated a moment (я колебался с минуту). The girl was staring in front of her (девушка уставилась перед собой). "What are you thinking of, Miss Grey (о чем вы думаете, мисс Грей)?" She turned her eyes towards me (она перевела на меня взгляд: «она повернула ко мне глаза»).
money ['mVnI], tap [t&p], hesitate ['hezIteIt]
"He's got a damned offensive manner," said Clarke. "Looks as though he knows everything — and what does he know? Nothing at all as far as I can make out."

"I'm wondering (мне интересно) where he is now (где он сейчас), the murderer (убийца), I mean (я имею в виду). It's not twelve hours yet (еще и двенадцати часов не прошло: «это еще не двенадцать часов») since it happened (с тех пор, как это произошло). Oh! aren't there any real clairvoyants (разве нет там каких-нибудь настоящих ясновидящих) who could see where he is now (которые могли бы увидеть, где он сейчас) and what he is doing (и что он делает) …?"
"The police are searching —" I began (полиция ищет, — начал я).
My commonplace words broke the spell (мои простые слова разбили чары). Thora Grey pulled herself together (Тора Грей собралась).
"Yes," she said. "Of course (конечно)."
In her turn she descended the staircase (в свою очередь она спустилась по лестнице). I stood there a moment longer (я стоял там минутой дольше) turning her words over in my mind (обдумывая ее слова: «переворачивая ее слова в моем уме»). A.B.C. Where was he now (где был он сейчас)?
clairvoyant [, [email protected]' [email protected]], commonplace [' [email protected]], descend [dI'send]

XVI. (Not from Captain Hastings' Personal Narrative)
(не из личного повествования капитана Гастингса)
Mr. Alexander Bonaparte Cust came out with the rest of the audience of the Torquay Pavilion (мистер Александр Бонапарт Каст вышел с остальной публикой из Торки Павильон), where he had been seeing and hearing that highly emotional film (где он смотрел и слушал этот очень эмоциональный фильм), Not a Sparrow[28] (ни воробушек)…
He blinked a little (он поморгал немного) as he came out into the afternoon sunshine (когда вышел на полуденное солнце) and peered round him (и огляделся вокруг) in that lost-dog fashion (в той манере потерянной собаки) that was characteristic of him (которая была ему характерна).
He murmured to himself (он пробормотал про себя): "It's an idea (это мысль)."
Newsboys passed along crying out (мальчишки-газетчики проходили мимо, выкрикивая): "Latest (последние /известия/) … Homicidal Maniac at Churston (маньяк-убийца в Черстоне)…"
They carried placards (они несли плакаты) on which was written (на которых было написано): CHURSTON MURDER (черстонское убийство). LATEST (последние /известия/).
Mr. Cust fumbled in his pocket (мистер Каст пошарил в кармане), found a coin (нашел монетку), and bought a paper (и купил газету). He did not open it at once (он не открыл ее сразу).
Entering the Princess Gardens (войдя в Принцесс Гарденс), he slowly made his way to a shelter (он медленно проделал свой путь к беседке: «укрытию») facing Torquay harbour (обращенному к гавани Торки). He sat down and opened the paper (он сел и раскрыл газету).

There were big headlines (там были большие заголовки):
SIR CARMICHAEL CLARKE MURDERED (сэр Кармайкл Кларк убит)
TERRIBLE TRAGEDY AT CHURSTON (ужасная трагедия в Черстоне)
WORK OF A HOMICIDAL MANIAC (работа маньяка-убийцы)
And below them (а под ними):
Only a month ago England was shocked and startled by the murder of a young girl (только месяц назад Англия была потрясена и поражена убийством молодой девушки), Elizabeth Barnard (Элизабет Барнард), at Bexhill (в Бексхилле). It may be remembered (вы, возможно, помните: «это, возможно, помнят») that an A.B.C. railway guide figured in the case (что железнодорожный справочник «Эй-би-си» фигурировал в этом случае). An A.B.C. was also found by the dead body of Sir Carmichael Clarke («Эй-би-си» был также найден у мертвого тела сэра Кармайкла Кларка), and the police incline to the belief (и полиция склонна верить) that both crimes were committed by the same person (что оба преступления были совершены тем же человеком). Can it be possible (может ли это быть возможным) that a homicidal murderer is going the round of our seaside resorts (что маньяк-убийца разгуливает по нашим морским курортам)?

A young man in flannel trousers (молодой человек во фланелевых брюках) and a bright blue aertex[29] shirt (и ярко-голубой трикотажной рубашке) who was sitting beside Mr. Cust (который сидел рядом с мистером Кастом) remarked (заметил): "Nasty business — eh (отвратительное дело, да)?"
