" That is not the question, " evaded Lord Greystoke.

“这不是问题， ” 格雷斯托克勋爵回避道。

Lord Greystoke and General Jacot rose and faced her.

格雷斯托克勋爵和杰科特将军站起来面对她。

General Jacot took one look at Meriem, then he turned toward Lord Greystoke.

Jacot 将军看了 Meriem 一眼，然后转向 Greystoke 勋爵。

The Greystoke town house quite took Meriem's breath away; but when strangers were about none might guess that she had not been to the manner born.

格雷斯托克镇的房子让梅瑞姆大吃一惊。但是当周围有陌生人时，没有人会猜到她没有出生的方式。

Lord Greystoke read of it, and while taking special precautions not to permit his name to become connected with the affair, kept himself well posted as to the police search for the anthropoid.

格雷斯托克勋爵读到了它，在采取特别的预防措施不让他的名字与这件事有联系的同时，也让自己对警方搜寻这只类人猿的消息了如指掌。

The two men sat in silence. General Jacot was too well bred to show in any way the chagrin and disappointment he felt in the summary manner in which Lord Greystoke had dismissed the subject of his call.

两个人沉默地坐着。杰科特将军的教养太好，无法以任何方式表现出他对格雷斯托克勋爵驳回他的拜访主题的草率态度所感到的懊恼和失望。
