Chapter 3 A walk in the park
第三章 公园漫步
The next day was Thursday. Nick stayed in his hotel room and wrote about mountains all morning. Then he drove to Stanley Park in the afternoon. He sat and read a book for an hour, then he went for a walk under the tall trees.
第二天是星期四。尼克整个上午都待在酒店的房间里写他的关于名山的书。下午他便开车去斯坦利公园。他坐下来看了一个小时的书，接着走进树木高大的林子里散步。
There was nobody here. It was quiet, and he could walk and think. He thought about Meg Hutson, and about the man with white hair. Did he know Meg Hutson? Did she know him? He remembered Meg Hutson's last words. Drive carefully, Mr Hollywood.
树林里没有人。四周非常安静，让他可以边走边思考问题。他想起了梅格·赫特森，还有那个留着白头发的人。他认识梅格·赫特森吗？她又认识他吗？他想起了梅格·赫特森最后对他说的话。“开车小心点儿，好莱坞先生。”
Why did she say that? Why did she call him Mr Hollywood? He didn't understand any of it.
她为什么那样说？她为什么叫他好莱坞先生？他怎么也弄不明白。
Suddenly, he heard a noise.
突然，他听到一声响。
He stopped. 'That was a gun!' he thought. 'There's somebody in the trees with a gun! There it is again!'
他停了下来。“是枪声！”他想，“树林里有人带枪！又是一声枪响！”
Then something hit the tree over his head.
接着有东西打到他头顶的树干上。
'Somebody's shooting at me!' Nick thought. He turned and ran.
“有人在开枪打我！”尼克想着，转身就跑。
And somebody began to run after him.
紧接着就有人开始在后面追他。
Nick ran through the trees. There was no sun in here, and it was half-dark. And there were no people. Nobody to help him.
尼克穿过树林。树林里没有阳光，非常昏暗。也没有人，没有人能帮他。
