The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle
Capítulo 7, Página 12
"Oh,
certainly,
certainly,"
replied
Mr.
Baker
with
a
sigh
of
relief.
"Of
course,
we
still
have
the
feathers,
legs,
crop,
and
so
on
from
your
bird,
so
if
you
want—"
The
man
laughed
heartily.
"They
might
be
nice
as
mementos
of
my
adventure,"
he
said,
"but
I
don't
see
what
else
they
would
be
good
for.
No,
sir,
with
your
permission,
I'll
focus
on
the
excellent
bird
on
the
sideboard."
Sherlock
Holmes
glanced
at
me
with
a
slight
shrug
of
his
shoulders.
"There
is
your
hat,
and
there
is
your
bird,"
said
Holmes.
"By
the
way,
would
you
mind
telling
me
where
you
got
the
other
one
from?
I'm
quite
interested
in
birds,
and
I
haven't
seen
a
better
goose."
"Certainly,
sir,"
said
Baker,
who
had
stood
up
and
tucked
his
new
property
under
his
arm.
"A
few
of
us
go
to
the
Alpha
Inn
near
the
Museum.
We
spend
our
days
in
the
Museum,
you
know.
This
year,
our
host,
Windigate,
started
a
goose
club.
We
paid
a
few
pence
each
week,
and
we
were
to
get
a
bird
at
Christmas.
I
paid
my
pence,
and
you
know
the
rest.
I
owe
you
a
lot,
sir,
as
a
Scotch
bonnet
doesn't
suit
my
age
or
seriousness."
With
a
funny
seriousness,
he
bowed
to
us
and
left.
"That's
all
about
Mr.
Henry
Baker,"
said
Holmes
after
closing
the
door.
"It's
clear
he
knows
nothing
about
the
crime.
Are
you
hungry,
Watson?"
"Not
really."
