So we know they bombed the coach, and how they did it. I suppose you're pleased about that."
"所以我们知道是他们炸的马车，而且知道是怎么炸的。我想你对此很高兴吧。"
"Er…yes," Alan said quietly." That's good. But why have you come to see me?"
"哦…是啊，"阿兰低声说，"很好，可是……你为什么来看我？＂
"I just need to ask you a few questions about the day before the bombing.
"我只是想间几个有关爆炸前一天的问题。
You see, we think these men put the bomb in the coach three days before the bombing, while the coach was at the factory.
你知道，我们认为这两个人在爆炸发生三天前就把炸弹放进了马车，当时马车在工厂。
So the bomb was already in the coach when it came back to the Mews.
