“玛奇，这是马龙先生，律师。皮兹纳小姐，马龙先生。还有这位 ——”
“Marge, this is Mr. Malone, the lawyer. Miss Pizzner, Malone. And Mr.—”
“贾斯特。” 杰克补充道。
“Justus,” Jake supplied.
“哦，当然。你以前在《观察家报》工作。喝一杯吧。”
“Oh, sure. You used to be with the Examiner. Have a drink.”
“这是公事拜访。” 马龙说。
“This is a business call,” Malone said.
“该死，那喝两杯吧。” 他倒了满满两杯海格。“走吧，玛奇。这是公事拜访。”
“Hell, have two drinks.” He poured out generous shots of Haig and Haig Pinchbottle. “Beat it, Marge. This is a business call.”
那个矮胖的黑发女子站起来，咯咯笑着说：“等你们走了，马龙先生，他会把一切都告诉我的。” 她有点摇晃地走进了杰克猜是卧室的房间。
The chubby brunette rose, giggled, and said, “He’ll tell me all about it after you’re gone, Mr. Malone,” lurched slightly, and disappeared into what Jake guessed was the bedroom.
马尔卡希看起来有点不自在。“别理她。”
Mulcahey looked a little uneasy. “Don't pay any attention to her.”
“我从不理会女人。” 马龙向他保证。他舒服地坐在一张巨大的填充太满的椅子里。“你肯定把自己照顾得很好。你这里真不错。”
“I never pay attention to dames,” Malone assured him. He settled himself fortably in an enormous overstuffed chair. “You sure do yourself pretty well. Nice place you have here.”
“我喜欢这里。” 马尔卡希谨慎地说。“我有一些投资，时不时能给我带来一点收入。”
“I like it,” Mulcahey said warily. “I have a few investments that bring me in a little dough now and then.”
马龙说：“当然。马克斯?胡克跟我讲过那些投资。我今天和马克斯谈了一点公事 —— 我不知道你的名字怎么会被提起。”
Malone said, “Sure. Max Hook told me about ’em. I was talking to Max today about a little business matter—I don't know how your name happened to e up.”
马尔卡希专注地看着地毯。“如果那天晚上我把你带到警察局的时候知道你是马克斯?胡克的朋友 ——”
Mulcahey looked intently at the carpet. “If I'd known you were a friend of Max Hook's when I took you into the station the other night—”
“忘了它吧。” 马龙急忙说。“如果不是你，我可能还在和那些家伙打架呢。” 他抿了一口苏格兰威士忌，不时地看着杯子。“你知道，如果我想从你这里得到一些信息，而你不给我，马克斯会大发脾气的。或者如果你不直接告诉我，他会更生气。”
“Forget it,” Malone said hastily. “If you hadn't, I'd probably still be fighting those guys.” He sipped his Scotch, gazing into the glass between times. “You know, if I wanted some information from you, and you didn't give it to me, Max would raise hell. Or if you didn't give it to me straight, he'd raise more hell.”
