"I hope you postpone all other appointments until tonight-yes, even if you are called to the emperor's bed; take a taxi, unless your carriage should actually be at the door; and carry this letter in your hands For consultation, drive directly to my house. My housekeeper Poole has his order. You will find him and the locksmith waiting for your arrival. Then, the door of my cabinet will be pushed open. You have to go in alone; open the left side The letters of the glass press machine, if closed, open it; and draw everything, that is, the fourth drawer at the top or the third drawer at the bottom is the same thing. In my extremely troubled situation, I worry that I will Misleading you; but even if I am wrong, you can know the correct drawer by its contents: some powder, glass bottles and a paper book. I ask you to take this drawer with you back to Cavendish Square.

"This is the first part of the service: now it's the second part. If you receive a notice long before midnight, you should come back. But I will leave so much leeway, not only because of the fear of inevitable or unforeseen One of the obstacles, and because your servant stays in bed for an hour is a preferable option, because it will continue to exist. Then, at midnight, I must ask you to be alone in the consulting room, with your own hands, to accept a person who will be in my name The person who appears and put the drawer you will bring in his hand. With you from my cabinet. Then you will play your part and win my gratitude completely. Five minutes later, if you By insisting on an explanation, you will understand that these arrangements are crucial.

"I am confident that you will not be insignificant by this appeal. My heart sank, and my hands tremble with this possibility of fantasy. At this moment, thinking of me in a strange place, in pain Working in the dark, there is no illusion to exaggerate, but you know clearly that if you only serve me on time, my troubles will roll away like the story told. Serve me, my dear and save

"Your friend,

"

: When my soul is under a new terrorist attack, I have sealed it. The post office may disappoint me, and the letter will not appear in your hands until tomorrow morning. In this case, dear, please try to provide you with the most convenient service during the day; again, look forward to my messenger at midnight. It may be too late by then. If nothing has passed that night, you will know that you have watched Henry Jekyll’s last movie. "

After reading this letter, I am sure my colleague is crazy. But until it proves that there is no doubt about the possibility, I will definitely follow his request. The less I know about this kind of Farago, the less I can judge its importance. An appeal so worded cannot be withdrawn without major responsibility. So I got up from the table, plunged into Hamilton's world, and went straight to Jekyll's house. The butler is waiting for my arrival. He received a registered letter in the same position as me and immediately sent it to the locksmith and carpenter. The merchant came before we spoke. Then we moved into Dr. Denman’s old operating room, from where you can undoubtedly enter Jekyll’s private cabinet easily. The door is strong and locks well. The carpenter swears that if he uses force, he will be in great trouble and must cause great losses; the locksmith is desperate. But the last one was a convenient guy, and after two hours of work, the door opened. The marked printing press was unlocked; then I took out the drawer, filled it with straw, tied it to a piece of paper, and took it back to Cavendish Square.

Here, I set out to study its content. The powder is neat enough, but the dispenser is not satisfied. So it was obvious that they were Jekyll’s private manufacture; when I opened one of the wrapping papers, I found a simple crystalline salt that looked white. The small medicine bottle that I later attracted my attention may be about half full of blood red wine. This wine has a strong irritant smell and seems to me to contain phosphorus and some volatile ethers. As for the other ingredients, I cannot guess. This book is an ordinary book, containing only a series of dates. This work has been going on for many years, but I have observed that these items ceased almost a year ago and suddenly ended. There are short notes everywhere in the date, usually no more than one word: in hundreds of entries, six "doubles" may have occurred; it appeared very early in the list, and then some exclamation marks appeared, "total failure" !!!" All of this, although aroused my curiosity, did not tell me what was certain. This is a small bottle of salt, and a series of experiments have been carried out as much as Jekyll's research, which has led to continuous improvement of practicality. How does the presence of these objects in my home affect the reputation, sanity or life of my elegant colleague? If his messenger can go to one place, why can't he go to another place? It even gave me some obstacles, why should I secretly receive this gentleman? The more I reflect, the more sure I am that I am dealing with a brain disease. Although I fired my servant to go to bed,

Twelve o'clock sounded on the scarce rungs in London, and the knock on the door sounded very soft. I went to the summons myself and found a short man squatting on the pillar of the porch.

"Are you from Dr. Jekyll?" I asked.

He said "yes" to me in a restrained posture. When I called him in, he did not obey me without looking back into the darkness of the square. A policeman not far away opened the bull's eyes and moved forward. When I saw it, I thought my visitors started and became more rushed.

I admit that these details shocked me. When I followed him into the bright part of the consulting room, I put my hand on my weapon. Finally, here, I have a chance to see him clearly. I've never seen him before, so sure. As I said, he is very small. In addition to his shocking expression, the combination of his excellent muscle mobility and apparently unsatisfactory physique, and last but not least, the strange, subjective confusion caused by his neighbors shocked me. This is a bit similar to the harshness at the beginning, with a significant drop in pulse. At the time, I attributed it to a certain trait, personal disgust, just want to know the severity of the symptoms;

Therefore, from the first moment he entered him, this person labeled me a disgusting curiosity, and the clothes I wore made ordinary people ridiculous. In other words, although his clothes are strong and sturdy, they are too big for him in every measurement-the pants are hung on his lap and rolled up to isolate them from the ground. The waist was below him, and the collar was splayed over his shoulders. Strangely, this ridiculous equipment is far from moving me. On the contrary, due to some anomalies and misunderstandings in the nature of my creatures-something fascinating, surprising and rebellious, this new difference seems to make up for and strengthen it;

Although these observations take up a lot of space, they still take a few seconds. Indeed, my visitors were thrilled.

"Do you understand?" He cried. "Do you understand?" His impatience was so lively that he even put his hand on my arm and tried to shake me.

I put him back and realized that he had a cold pain in my blood. I said, "Come on, sir. You forgot that I haven't had the pleasure of meeting you. Please sit down." Then I showed him an example, sitting in my usual seat, being late and busy as usual The nature and the fear of the visitor, imitating the patient fairly with my ordinary behavior, will make me suffer.
