“所以呢?” 安迪?阿赫恩说。他停顿了一下。“你没告诉我啊。” 他又停顿了一下。“嗯,这就是我对婚姻一直以来的看法。今天在,明天就没了。”
“So?” Andy Ahearn said. He paused. “You don’t tell me.” He paused again. “Well, that’s what I always say about marriage. Here today and gone tomorrow.”
在法院外面,杰克停下来四处看看。他考虑给马龙打电话骂他几句,然后又决定等当面骂得更痛快些更好。
Outside the courthouse, Jake paused and looked around. He considered telephoning Malone and calling him a few names, and then decided it would be far more satisfactory to wait and do it more fully in person.
安迪?阿赫恩可能在对他说谎。而且如果他在掩盖真相,记录里也不会有任何显示。他太轻易就愿意出示那些记录了,这很可疑。杰克决定既然他已经在这儿了,四处打探一下也没什么坏处。麦克莱恩的庄园就在几英里外的枫树公园。他不知道在那儿能找到什么,但快速看一眼也没什么坏处。
Andy Ahearn could have been lying to him. And if he were covering up, the records wouldn’t show anything. He’d been suspiciously willing to show those records. Jake decided that since he was already out here, there was no harm in nosing around a little. The McClane estate was only a few miles away, in Maple Park. He didn’t know what might be found there, but it couldn’t hurt to take a quick look.
他叫了一辆当地的出租车,告诉司机在麦克莱恩家附近让他下车。然后他往后一靠,试图决定到了那儿该做什么。他不仅不知道自己期望找到什么,甚至不知道该去哪儿找。
He hailed one of the local taxis and told the driver to leave him near the McClane place. Then he leaned back and tried to decide what to do when he got there. He not only didn’t know what he expected to find, he didn’t even know where to look for it.
也许有打斗的迹象?上面还覆盖着两英尺厚的雪呢!或者有具尸体,就那么随便地扔在那儿。他提醒自己,这样的谋杀无论如何都不符合莫娜打赌的条件。在一两平方英里的雪地里跋涉,寻找莫娜?麦克莱恩谋杀的人是没有意义的。那甚至可能不是一个男人。可能是个女人。可能是连体双胞胎。他想知道如果海伦在这儿她会怎么做。
Signs of a struggle, perhaps? With two feet of snow on top! Or a body, just carelessly left around. He reminded himself that such a murder wouldn’t conform to the terms of Mona’s bet anyway. No sense in tramping all over a square mile or two of snow, looking for the guy Mona McClane had murdered. It might not even be a guy. Might be a gal. Might be the Siamese twins. He wondered what Helene would do if she were here.
