马龙探案卷五 之 盛怒的审判八
人群兴奋地乱转,他们的喧闹声使得听不到讲台上在说什么。
THE CROWD milled around excitedly, their din making it impossible to hear what was being said on the platform.
阿琳?高奇绝望地抓住汤姆?伯罗斯的胳膊,一遍又一遍地哭着说:“他没干,他没干。”
Arlene Goudge clutched desperately at Tom Burrows’ arm and began crying, “He didn’t do it, he didn’t do it,” over and over.
马龙看了一眼女孩,说:“把她带出去。杰克,你挤到前面去听听那个老家伙要说什么。来吧,海伦。”
Malone took one look at the girl and said, “Get her out of here. Jake, you edge up there and hear what the old guy has to say. Come along, Helene.”
他们挤过人群,半拖半拽地把女孩带回了《企业报》的办公室。当海伦在他们身后关上门时,她还在重复着:“他没干。”
They pushed through the crowd and half dragged the girl back to the office of the Enterprise. She was still repeating, “He didn’t do it,” when Helene kicked the door shut behind them.
汤姆?伯罗斯把她推到一把椅子上,狠狠地扇了她一巴掌,说:“别这样!” 接着,看到她眼泪汪汪的,他赶紧掏出一块手帕,擦了擦她的眼睛,说:“你这个可怜的宝贝。”
Tom Burrows shoved her into a chair, slapped her roughly, and said, “Stop that!” Then as a flood of tears threatened, he whipped out a handkerchief, wiped her eyes, and said, “You poor baby.”
她抬头看着他们,眼神狂野。“你们得做点什么!你们不能把杰瑞从监狱里弄出来吗?你们不能证明他没干这事,或者找出是谁干的,或者 —— 做点什么吗?”
She looked up at them, her eyes wild. “You’ve got to do something! Can’t you get Jerry out of jail? Can’t you prove he didn’t do it, or find out who did, or - something?”
“我亲爱的年轻女士。” 马龙开口道。
“My dear young lady,” Malone began.
这次她真的放声大哭起来,蜷缩在椅子里,把脸埋在胳膊里,像只小猫一样哭泣。这对马龙来说是最后一根稻草。
This time she really burst into tears, curled up in the chair, buried her face in her arms, and cried like a kitten. It was the last straw for Malone.
“别哭了。” 他冲她吼道。“我会做点什么。我什么都愿意做。我会把他从监狱里弄出来。看在上帝的份上,别哭了!”
“Don’t cry,” he roared at her. “I’ll do something. I’ll do anything. I’ll get him out of jail. For the love of Mike, stop it!”
她停下来,用海伦的手帕擤了擤鼻子,把头发往后捋了捋,说:“哦,马龙先生!”
She paused long enough to blow her nose on Helene’s handkerchief, push back her hair, and say, “Oh, Mr. Malone!”
