He rang a bell on his table and the girl who had so filled T. X. with a sense of awe came from an adjoining room.

他按了按桌上的鈴，那個曾讓T. X.肅然起敬的姑娘從隔壁房間走了出來。

"You will see that this is delivered, Miss Holland."

「請妳把這個送出去，霍蘭小姐。」

Kara rose from his desk and began to pace the room.

卡拉從書桌旁站起來，開始在房間裡踱來踱去。

"Do you know T. X. Meredith?" he asked suddenly.

「聽說過他，」姑娘說。

"A man with a singular mind," said Kara; "a man against whom my favourite weapon would fail."

「一個頭腦非凡的人，」卡拉說，「一個連我最得意的武器都對付不了的人。」

She looked at him with interest in her eyes.

她看著他，眼裡露出興趣。

"What is your favourite weapon, Mr. Kara?" she asked.

「您最得意的武器是什麼，卡拉先生？」她問。
