I jumped out from my hiding place and ran over to the group of riders. They were police officers who knew that there was a pirate ship in the bay. I told them my story.
Later I went back to the inn with one of the officers. Everything was broken, and the captain's money and some silver from the inn was missing.
“They took the money,” said the officer. “But what did they really want?”
“I think they wanted these papers in my pocket,” I answered. “I want to take them to Dr Liversey.”
“Good idea,” he answered. “Dr Liversey is a gentleman and a magistrate(地方官). I will take you to him now, because I need to tell him what happened.”

So I got up on the horse behind one of the officers and we rode to Dr Liversey's house. Dr Liversey was not at home. He was dining with Squire Trelawney, so we rode on to the Hall, where the squire lived. The two men were sitting in a great library next to a bright fire.
The officer told the story. The two men listened with surprise and interest. The officer then left. I gave the papers to the doctor and they asked me to stay and eat something after my adventures.
“Have you heard of Flint?” Dr Liversey asked the squire.
“Yes, I have!” the squire replied. “He was one of the most dangerous pirates that ever sailed the seas. He only cared about money and everyone was afraid of him. No one knows where he buried his treasure.”
“Maybe these papers give a clue,” said the doctor. And we opened the captain's papers. Inside there was a detailed map. It showed an island, about nine miles long and five across.
