" he said, commiseratingly, after he had listened to my misfortunes. "What are you up to now?"

"그가 내 불행을 듣고 난 후 동정하듯 말했다. "지금은 무엇을 하고 계십니까?"

"Looking for lodgings," I answered. "Trying to solve the problem as to whether it is possible to get comfortable rooms at a reasonable price."

"숙소를 찾고 있습니다," 나는 대답했다. "적당한 가격에 편안한 방을 구할 수 있는지 그 문제를 해결하려는 중입니다."

"That's a strange thing," remarked my companion; "you are the second man to-day that has used that expression to me."

"그것 참 이상한 일이군요," 내 동반자가 말했다. "오늘 나에게 그 표현을 쓴 사람이 당신이 두 번째입니다."

"And who was the first?" I asked.

"그럼 첫 번째는 누구였나요?" 나는 물었다.

"A fellow who is working at the chemical laboratory up at the hospital. He was bemoaning himself this morning because he could not get someone to go halves with him in some nice rooms which he had found, and which were too much for his purse."

"병원 위쪽에 있는 화학 실험실에서 일하는 사람입니다. 그는 오늘 아침 자신이 찾아낸 멋진 방을 같이 쓸 사람을 구하지 못해 한탄하고 있었는데, 그 방이 혼자 내기엔 너무 비쌌던 겁니다."

"By Jove!" I cried, "if he really wants someone to share the rooms and the expense, I am the very man for him. I should prefer having a partner to being alone."

"이런!" 나는 외쳤다. "그가 정말로 방과 비용을 나눌 사람을 원한다면, 내가 바로 그에게 딱 맞는 사람입니다. 혼자 있는 것보다 동반자가 있는 편이 더 좋겠습니다."

Young Stamford looked rather strangely at me over his wine-glass. "You don't know Sherlock Holmes yet," he said; "perhaps you would not care for him as a constant companion."

젊은 스탬퍼드가 와인잔 너머로 나를 다소 이상하게 바라보았다. "당신은 아직 셜록 홈즈를 모릅니다," 그가 말했다. "아마도 그를 늘 함께 있는 동반자로 삼고 싶지 않을 수도 있습니다."

"Why, what is there against him?"

"왜요, 그에게 무슨 문제라도 있나요?"

"Oh, I didn't say there was anything against him. He is a little queer in his ideas—an enthusiast in some branches of science. As far as I know he is a decent fellow enough."

"아, 그에게 뭔가 문제가 있다고 말한 건 아닙니다. 그는 생각이 좀 독특하고, 과학의 몇몇 분야에 열성적입니다. 내가 아는 한 그는 꽤 괜찮은 사람입니다."

"A medical student, I suppose?" said I.

"의대생인가요?" 내가 말했다.

"No—I have no idea what he intends to go in for.

"아니요, 그가 무엇을 하려는지 전혀 모릅니다.
