Seven o clock had just struck , and m . bertuccio , according to the command which had been given him , had two hours before left for auteuil , when a cab stopped at the door , and after depositing its occupant at the gate , immediately hurried away , as if ashamed of its employment 七点钟刚敲过，也就是在贝尔图乔受命到欧特伊去的两小时以后，一辆出租马车在大厦门前停了下来，等乘客在门口下车以后，立刻就急匆匆地驶开了，象是感到羞于做这项差使似的。
At first sight the exterior of the house at auteuil gave no indications of splendor , nothing one would expect from the destined residence of the magnificent count of monte cristo ; but this simplicity was according to the will of its master , who positively ordered nothing to be altered outside 欧特伊村那座房子的外表，乍一看，并不见得怎么富丽堂皇，它使人想不到这会是那奢华的基督山伯爵的别墅。但这种朴素的情调是颇符合房子主人的心意的，他曾明明白白地吩咐过，不许外表有任何改变，这一点，只要一看房子的内部，谁都会立刻明白的。
First , you purchase a house at auteuil - this house is the one where i have committed an assassination ; you descend to the garden by the same staircase by which he descended ; you stop at the spot where he received the blow ; and two paces farther is the grave in which he had just buried his child 第一，您在欧特伊买了一座房子，而那正是我暗杀过人的一座房子，您到花园里来经过的，那个楼梯正是他走过的，那个您站的地方也正是他被刺的地方而两步路之外，正是他埋葬他孩子的坟墓。
