From the text

Between the silver ribbon of morning and the green glittering ribbon of sea, the boat touched Harwich and let loose a swarm of folk like flies, among whom the man we must follow was by no means conspicuous--nor wished to be.

아침의 은빛 리본과 반짝이는 초록빛 바다 리본 사이로 배가 하위치에 닿자 파리 떼처럼 사람들이 쏟아져 나왔는데, 우리가 따라가야 할 그 남자는 그들 가운데서 전혀 눈에 띄지 않았고, 눈에 띄기를 원하지도 않았습니다.

There was nothing notable about him, except a slight contrast between the holiday gaiety of his clothes and the official gravity of his face.

그에게는 특별히 눈에 띄는 점이 없었으나, 그의 옷차림의 명랑함과 얼굴의 엄숙한 표정 사이에 약간의 대조가 있었을 뿐이다.

His clothes included a slight, pale grey jacket, a white waistcoat, and a silver straw hat with a grey-blue ribbon.

그의 옷차림은 가볍고 옅은 회색 재킷, 흰색 조끼, 그리고 회청색 리본이 달린 은색 밀짚모자였습니다.

His lean face was dark by contrast, and ended in a curt black beard that looked Spanish and suggested an Elizabethan ruff.

그의 마른 얼굴은 대조적으로 어두웠고, 스페인 사람처럼 보이는 짧은 검은 수염으로 끝났으며, 엘리자베스 시대의 러프 칼라를 연상시켰습니다.

He was smoking a cigarette with the seriousness of an idler.

그는 게으름뱅이처럼 진지한 표정으로 담배를 피우고 있었다.

There was nothing about him to indicate the fact that the grey jacket covered a loaded revolver, that the white waistcoat covered a police card, or that the straw hat covered one of the most powerful intellects in Europe.

그에게서는 회색 재킷이 장전된 권총을 가리고 있다는 사실, 흰색 조끼가 경찰 신분증을 가리고 있다는 사실, 또는 밀짚모자가 유럽에서 가장 뛰어난 지성을 지닌 사람 중 한 명을 가리고 있다는 사실을 나타내는 어떤 것도 찾아볼 수 없었습니다.

For this was Valentin himself, the head of the Paris police and the most famous investigator of the world; and he was coming from Brussels to London to make the greatest arrest of the century.

이는 파리 경찰청장이자 세계에서 가장 유명한 수사관인 발렌틴이 브뤼셀에서 런던으로 와서 세기의 가장 위대한 체포를 하려던 참이었기 때문입니다.

Flambeau was in England.

플람보는 영국에 있었다.
