“我不知道我到底在做什么。”他几乎生气地说，“这不是我的角色。当我阻止一场犯罪时，我是在违背自己的利益。我的工作是等到犯罪发生，警察完成他们的工作。然后我就有了一个客户、一场审判、一次无罪释放和一笔费用。这才是应该的运作方式。”他转过身面对他们。“尽管如此，我必须阻止这场犯罪。我不能让她这么做。”他紧紧地盯着迈克尔·文宁。“你当然知道她计划杀了你，不是吗？”
“I don’t know what the devil I’m doing this for,” he said almost angrily. “This isn’t my role. I’m going against my own interests when I prevent a crime. My business is to wait until the crime has been mitted and the police have done their work. Then I have myself a client, a trial, an acquittal, and a fee. That’s how it’s supposed to work.” He wheeled around to face them. “Just the same, I’ve got to prevent this crime. I can’t let her do it.” He looked hard at Michael Venning. “You know, of course, that she’s planned to kill you, don’t you?”
迈克尔·文宁跳了起来，把杯子弄掉了。“我不相信。”
Michael Venning jumped up, dropping his glass. “I don’t believe it.”
“是真的。”马龙疲倦地说。他向那个大个子做了个手势，那个人又坐了下来，笔直地坐在椅子边上。“她计划这么做，但不能以这种方式发生。”
“It’s true,” Malone said wearily. He gestured at the big man who sat down again, sitting very straight on the edge of his chair. “She planned to, but it can’t happen this way.”
伊迪莎·文宁用嘶哑、紧张的声音说：“你一定是疯了！”然后突然安静了下来。
Editha Venning said. “You must be insane!” in a hoarse, strained voice, and suddenly was quiet.
马龙似乎没有听到她的话。他还没来得及再说一句话，彭德利·泰德韦尔就跑下楼梯，在门口停了下来，手里拿着一小条照片。
Malone didn’t seem to have heard her. Before he could say another word, Pendley Tidewell came racing down the stairs and paused in the doorway, a small strip of pictures in his hand.
“我拿到了！”他叫道，“成功了！伊迪莎阿姨，这显示……”他停了下来。“大家到底是怎么了？”
“I’ve got it!” he exclaimed. “It worked! Aunt Editha, it shows—” he paused. “What the hell is the matter with everybody?”
“我想我知道那些照片显示了什么。”马龙平静地说，“先拿着它们等一会儿。”他又说，“你一定是用紫外线拍的。”
“I think I know what those pictures show,” Malone said calmly. “Just hold on to them for a minute.” He added, “You must have taken them with an ultra-violet light.”
