海伦踩下油门，沿着密歇根大道疾驰而过，让一名吃惊的交警愣在原地。“我们半小时内就能拿到冈布里尔的小盒子。”

helene stepped on the aelerator and shot past a startled policean down ichigan avenue “we’ll have r gubril’s little box half an hour”

“美好的愿望，” 马龙咆哮道，“不过别忘了，冯?弗拉纳根可能还没允许公众进入冈布里尔的房间。”

“a nice sentint,” alone growled “don’t fet though that von fnagan probably still has gubril’s roo closed to the public”
