525. Why me no see wild boar fellow?

526. Got one nose see plenty better than two eye.

527. At the time I didn't realize

528. that this small incident heralded tragic events.

529. An animal!

530. Where, Captain?

531. Where?

532. Over there, by that fallen tree.

533. - Me get him? - No.

534. Didn't you see you missed him?

535. Even the best marksmen miss a shot now and then.

536. Why Dersu miss?

537. Always me see animal first.

538. Always Dersu never miss. Eyes gone bad.

539. How me going live now in forest?

540. Dersu, come with me to Khabarovsk.

541. My home is your home.

542. The new year had come.

543. It was a strange night.

544. Dersu!

545. Amba come back again to kill me.

546. - Me thank you, Captain! - What's the matter?

547. Captain, you say my home your home.

548. - So you'll come then? - Bad eyes not work no good.

549. Kongnga spirit no want have me here. He send me Amba.

550. It's probable that what Dersu called Amba

551. was a manifestation of the terror the wilds now held for him,

552. a phantom that preyed upon the imagination of a tired old man.

553. I've a surprise for you. Vova has recorded Dersu.

554. Captain go to mountains and work.

555. Come back home.

556. Sit down at table, plenty work.

557. Me in big town, no work.

558. Look at fire.

559. Look at hills far away. That's all!

560. Town life is no good for him.

561. He'll get used to it.

562. - Has Dersu heard that? - Yes.

563. What did he say?

564. "Him talk plenty good. He not miss out nothing."

565. Does he often talk to you about the wilds?

566. Yes. Dersu's not afraid of anything, not of wolves, or bears either.

567. Nor of blizzards, nor of floods.

568. Dersu is Vova's hero. He's crazy about him.

569. I'd have died many times if it hadn't been for him.

570. Dersu never said anything about it.

571. Well, he doesn't think it something to talk about.

572. There are lots of others who would brag about such things.

573. This fellow, we have plenty years walking together in wilds.

574. And that, bear tooth.

575. And this, claw of lynx.

576. You take for you.

577. - A present, Dersu? - Yes, my little captain.

578. That's just great! It'll be my own talisman.

579. Do you have tiger claws as well?

580. No, me shoot at tiger.

581. Only tiger bad luck.

582. Why?

583. Plenty bad luck.

584. Here you are. Thanks very much.

585. You give money to fellow for water?

586. Plenty water back in river!

587. - Why you sell lady water? - You crazy? Just a savage.

588. And you bad fellow.

589. - Where are you going? - To shoot.

590. You're not allowed to shoot in town.

591. Barrel of gun plenty dirty.

592. Me shoot bullet, that clean it. Me clean with rag.

593. But there are people around. It'll be dangerous.

594. Me shoot into the sky.

595. But it's not allowed. The town is not the mountain.

596. Don't you understand?

597. Well, how are you, Dersu?

598. Me sitting here like dead log in woods.

599. Me no understand how fellows live inside box.

600. Well, I must agree, it's not a cheerful room.

601. I think we might change the paper, make it more comfortable.

602. In the meantime you can move into my study.

603. No, thanks, Captain.

604. Me go outside, make good tent.

605. Sleep there...

606. not bother no one.

607. Listen Dersu...

608. In a town, that's not allowed.

609. Why not?

610. Not good?

611. How can I explain to you. That's the law.

612. Funny law.

613. Shooting gun not allowed, sleep in tent not allowed.

614. Me not breathe. Need plenty fresh air.

615. - Dad! Dersu's been arrested! - The police just telephoned.

616. He saw me going out to buy wood, and he got very excited,

617. and he went off to cut down a tree in the park.

618. Please, Captain, me want to go away.

619. Me can't live in town.

620. Where do you want to go?

621. Me go back to mountains.

622. Captain.

623. Missus lady.

624. Little captain.

625. You all good fellows.

626. Me go away bad. Sorry.

627. But Dersu can't live in town.

628. Very well, take this new rifle with you.

629. It's a present.

630. The sights on it are very good.

631. Even if you don't see so well, you can't miss with it.

632. Me thank you, Captain.

633. "Your visiting card found on the body of a dead Gold."

634. "Please come and identify the corpse."

635. Captain Arsenyev?

636. You knew the deceased?

637. We were very good friends.

638. His name?

639. Dersu Uzala.

640. His occupation?

641. Hunter.

642. That's strange.

643. We didn't find a rifle with him.

644. There should've been one, one of the latest models.

645. No, we didn't find any kind of rifle. Only your visiting card.

646. Oh, that explains everything.

647. The killer wanted his rifle and killed him for it.

648. - We're ready to bury him now. - Ground was frozen solid.

649. All right, bury him.

650. Now I must ask you for a signature.

651. Sign this.

652. Pardon me, sir, I've got work to do...

653. Thank you very much.

654. Well, my respects, Captain!
