马龙探案卷四 之 正确的凶案 九
莫娜·麦克莱恩坐在壁炉旁的一把高背椅上，头向后靠在靠垫上，眼睛闭着。她的衣服有点奇怪的中国风格，长长的直袖子，高领紧身的领口，还有那厚重锦缎丝绸的深蓝色。她戴着一个精雕细刻的白色玉质圆形饰物，挂在一条细长精致的银链子上，还有十几只纤细的白色玉手镯。她的黑发剪得很短，厚厚的刘海垂在她苍白的额头上；在刘海下面，她那顽童般的脸非常苍白，只有那形状奇特的宽宽的猩红色嘴巴很显眼。
Mona McClane sat in a high-backed chair near the fireplace, her head thrown back against its cushions, her eyes closed. There was something oddly Chinese about her dress, with its long, straight sleeves, its high-throated, close-fitting collar, and the intense blue of its heavily brocaded silk. She wore an exquisitely carved white jade medallion on a long, delicate silver chain, and a dozen slender, white jade bracelets. Her black hair was cut short, with a heavy bang falling over her pale forehead; below the bang her gamin face was very white, save for the wide, odd-shaped scarlet mouth.
起初马龙以为房间里只有她一个人，便朝她走去。他走到地毯中间的时候，一个响亮的声音吓了他一跳。
At first Malone believed her to be alone in the room and walked toward her. He was halfway across the rug when a loud voice startled him.
“嘿，你。别挡道。”
“Hey, you. Keep out of the way.”
他抬起头，看见一个年轻人平趴在一个巨大的书架顶上。年轻人恶狠狠地瞪着他。
He looked up, and saw a young man lying flat on his stomach on top of one of the massive bookcases. The young man glared at him balefully.
“你就站在那儿，不管你是谁。”
“You stay right there, whoever you are.”
“我是约翰?J?马龙。” 律师说，“我很乐意站在这儿，但是为什么呢？”
“I’m John J. Malone,” the lawyer said, “and I’ll be glad to stay right here, but why?”
“因为我在给她拍照，这就是为什么。” 上面传来的声音告诉他。他把马龙见过的最小的相机对准了莫娜?麦克莱恩。
“Because I’m taking her picture, that’s why,” the voice from above told him. He aimed the smallest camera Malone had ever seen at Mona McClane.
“别理彭德利。” 莫娜?麦克莱恩一动不动地说。“他马上就拍完了。”
“Don’t mind Pendley,” Mona McClane said without moving a muscle. “He’ll be through right away.”
“我才不会呢。” 年轻人烦躁地说。过了一会儿，他以一种连空中飞人表演者都会羡慕的敏捷身手从高处爬了下来，站在那儿摆弄着他的相机。
