“You see?” Helene said. “Viewed from practically any angle, it’s a bad spot.”
“我见过更糟的。” 小律师安慰道。“把一切都交给我吧。杰克逊县肯定有人听说过证据。你的这个证人，这个叫钮扣的怎么样？”
“I’ve seen worse ones,” the little lawyer said reassuringly. “Just leave everything to me. Somebody in Jackson County must have heard of evidence. How about this witness of yours, this Buttonholes?”
海伦轻声笑了起来。“他是镇上的骗子。而且，他有个威尔士奶奶。”
Helene snickered. “He’s the town liar. Besides, he’s got a Welsh grandmother.”
“好吧，” 马龙严厉地说，“这是他们不能把杰克扯进去的一件事。我们会出示出生证明。”
“Well,” Malone said grimly, “that’s one thing they can’t get Jake for. We’ll produce a birth certificate.”
“太棒了。” 杰克说。“但如果你开始行动找出凶手，我会感觉更安心。”
“Wonderful,” Jake said. “But I’d feel even easier in my mind if you got to work and produced the murderer.”
