古いふるい屋敷やしきの門もんをくぐると、冷たいつめたい風かぜが頰ほおを撫でたなでたWhen I passed through the gate of the old mansion, a cold wind brushed my cheek. 依頼主いらいぬしの老婦人ろうふじんは、客間きゃくまできつくお茶おちゃをすすめたThe elderly client strongly offered me tea in the parlor. 「先週せんしゅうまで壁かべにかかっていたアンティークあんてぃーくの時計とけいが、突然とつぜん消えたきえたんです。」"The antique clock that had been hanging on the wall until last week suddenly disappeared." 彼女かのじょの声こえは震えてふるえていたが、目めは私わたしをじっと見つめてみつめていたHer voice was trembling, yet her eyes were staring intently at me.

私わたしは静かしずかに尋ねたたずねた。「その時計とけいは、家族かぞくにとって特別とくべつなものだったのですか?」I asked quietly, "Was that clock something special to the family?" 老婦人ろうふじんは少しすこし間まを置いておいてから、小さくちいさくうなずいたThe elderly lady paused for a moment, then gave a small nod. そのとき、隣となりの部屋へやから古いふるい時計とけいの音おとが、かすかに聞こえてきこえてきた気きがしたAt that moment, I thought I faintly heard the sound of an old clock coming from the next room.
