“I’ll split the difference,” he said instinctively. “O. K. Seventy-five hundred. But start now, and make it snappy. Come on, Uncle Henry.” She turned toward the door.
“等一下。” 马龙说。“我还没说我要做什么呢。”
“Wait a minute,” Malone said. “I haven't said I'd do anything yet.”
“胡说,没人会拒绝七千五百块。明天一早先来找我,我会把爸爸的所有情况都告诉你。” 海伦说:“等一下,佩维利小姐。这还没定下来呢。”
“Nonsense, nobody ever turned down seventy-five hundred bucks. Come and see me first thing in the morning, and I'll give you all the dope on Pa.” Helene said, “Wait, Miss Peveley. It isn't settled yet.”
“当然定下来了。” 女孩对她说。“我得赶紧回家,不然那些该死的摄影师可能会追上我。我可不想穿着这条裤子在《论坛报》的末版上出现我的照片。” 她打开门,说:“明天早上见,马龙先生。” 然后就走了,亨利叔叔跟在后面。

“What you do is your own business,” Jake said firmly. “But we are not staying in Jackson County.”
“听着。” 马龙吼道。“是你把我叫到这儿来,让我卷入这件事的。”
“Now look here,” Malone roared. “You got me up here and got me into this.”
“我会给你合理的费用,作为法律咨询和你的车费。” 杰克说,“看在上帝的份上,回芝加哥去吧,别管小镇上的谋杀案了。”
“I’ll give you a reasonable fee for legal advice and your busfare,” Jake said, “and for the love of Mike, go back to Chicago and don’t mess with small-town murders.”
