就在第二天下午3點(diǎn)(鬧鐘上的時(shí)間),一個(gè)軍官走進(jìn)了牢房。這是他們幾星期以來(lái)見(jiàn)到的第一位軍官。他非常年輕,甚至小胡子的形狀也顯示出他不夠老練,左邊的胡子剃得重了點(diǎn)。
It was at three the next afternoon (alarm clock time) that an officer entered the cell; the first officer they had seen for weeks – and this one was very young, with inexperience even in the shape of his mustache which he had shaved too much on the left side.
他就像一個(gè)初次登臺(tái)領(lǐng)獎(jiǎng)的小學(xué)生一樣窘迫不安,他說(shuō)起話來(lái)粗魯無(wú)禮,似乎要顯示一種他并不具備的力量。
He was as embarrassed as a schoolboy making his first entry on a stage at a prize-giving, and he spoke abruptly so as to give the impression of a strength he did not possess.
他說(shuō)道:“昨天夜間城里發(fā)生了幾起謀殺,一名軍事長(zhǎng)官的副手、一位中士和一個(gè)騎自行車(chē)的女孩被殺。”他又說(shuō)道:“我們不在乎女孩的死。法國(guó)男人殺死法國(guó)女人不關(guān)我們的事。”
He said, “There were murders last night in the town. The aide-de-camp of the military governor, a sergeant and a girl on a bicycle.” He added, “We don't complain about the girl. Frenchmen have our permission to kill Frenchwomen.”
很明顯他事先仔細(xì)斟酌了他的講話,但他的嘲弄做過(guò)了頭,他的表演也很業(yè)余。
He had obviously thought up his speech carefully beforehand, but the irony was overdone and the delivery that of an amateur actor:
整個(gè)場(chǎng)面就像手勢(shì)字謎游戲那樣矯飾做作。
the whole scene was as unreal as a charade.
他接著說(shuō)道:“你們知道自己為什么來(lái)這里,你們?cè)谶@里好吃好喝,過(guò)著舒適的日子,而我們的人卻在工作和戰(zhàn)斗。不過(guò)現(xiàn)在你們必須付出代價(jià)了。不要怪我們,要怪你們自己的殺人兇手。我的命令是集中營(yíng)里每十個(gè)人要有一個(gè)被槍決。你們有多少人?”“報(bào)數(shù)。”他厲聲喝道人們悶悶不樂(lè)地照辦了。“28,29,30.”人們知道不用數(shù)他也知道人數(shù),這不過(guò)是他玩的把戲中不可省略的一句臺(tái)詞……
He said, “You know what you are here for, living comfortably, on fine rations, while our men work and fight. Well, now you've got to pay the hotel bill. Don't blame us. Blame your own murderers. My orders are that one man in every ten shall be shot in this camp. How many of you are there?” He shouted sharply, “Number off,” and sullenly they obeyed, “…… twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty.” They knew he knew without counting. This was just a line in his charade he couldn't sacrifice.
他說(shuō)道:“那么,你們的名額是三個(gè),我們并不關(guān)心是哪三個(gè)人。你們可以自己選擇。死刑于明天早上7點(diǎn)執(zhí)行。”
He said, “Y
