迷你对话：

A: In my opinions, someone else has caused the fire of this house.

我想有人故意放火烧了这所房子。

B: Who do you think that has the motive?

你觉得谁会有这样的动机呢？

A: I’m not sure now. In any case, let’s first make some careful investigations.

现在我还不能肯定。无论如何，我们慢慢调查。

B: OK, murder will out!

好的，事情总会水落石出的，纸包不住火的。

A: Yeah.

就是。

地道表达：

murder will out

解词释义：

此语为cannot be hidden，用以指“事情暴露了，秘密揭穿了，恶事终必败露”。与之同意的2条谚语如下：The truth will come to light.（真相终将告白。）Murder cannot be his long.（谋杀者不可能长久躲避。）

支持范例：

Their secret engagement was finally revealed.I always say murder will out.

他们的密约终于被揭露了，我常说纸是包不住火的。

Murder will out. Be careful the skeleton will one day fall out of the closet.

若要人不知，除非己莫为。你小心，事情总有被揭发的一天！
