經典科幻文學:《 基本上無害 Mostly Harmless》 第2章5
She was completely bewildered. Was this Woody Allen trying to contact her under an assumed name? It was a 212 area code number. So it was someone in New York. Who was not happy. Well, that narrowed it down a bit, didn’t it?
她徹底糊塗了,難道是伍迪?艾倫在用化名跟她聯絡?電話的區號是212,所以這人肯定來自紐約,而且還不快樂。嗯,這麼一來範圍就小些了,不是嗎?
She went back to the receptionist at the desk.
她回到前臺的接待跟前。
‘I have a problem with this message you just gave me,’ she said. ‘Someone I don’t know has tried to call me and says she’s not happy.’
“你剛纔給的留言我不大明白。”她說,“有個我不認識的人給我打電話,還說她不快樂。”
The receptionist peered at the note with a frown.
接待皺着眉毛瞅了眼留言。
‘Do you know this person?’ he said.
“你知道這人是誰嗎?”他問。
‘No,’ Tricia said.
“不。”崔茜卡說。
‘Hmmm,’ said the receptionist. ‘Sounds like she’s not happy about something.’
“呣。”接待道,“聽起來她好像對什麼事兒不大高興。”
‘Yes,’ said Tricia.
“沒錯。”崔茜卡說。
‘Looks like there’s a name here,’ said the receptionist. ‘Gail Andrews. Do you know anybody of that name?’
“看這兒還有個名字,”接待說,“蓋爾?安德魯斯。你認識的人裏有叫這個的嗎?”
‘No.’ said Tricia.
“沒有。”崔茜卡說。
‘Any idea what she’s unhappy about?’
“她到底爲什麼不快樂,你有沒有什麼頭緒?”
‘No,’ said Tricia.
“沒有。”崔茜卡說。
