我就知道这肯定只能是M的手笔

对警?察?破案毫无帮助

useless to the police.

现在 他出现在美国

Now, his appearance here in the States--

这是我的第二次机会

在伦敦时 他是怎么看待你的

What was his awareness⁵ of you back in London?

他曾在一两封信中提到过我 怎么了

Oh, he may have referenced me in a letter or two. Why?

你不觉得这一切太巧合了吗

Seems sort of coincidental, don't you think?

他紧随你其后来到纽约

Him coming to New York so soon after you?

我还没想到这个

Well, I-I... I hadn't considered that.

-真的吗 -我觉得这有点奇怪

- Really? - I suppose it is a little odd--

如果是这样 那他是在自鸣得意

flattering if you think about it.

我会在你寓所周围布置警力
