point-blank range近距离直射

I just took off. It's like, kids run away... they don't think about where they're going to stay... how they're going to eat, all these things. They had that roof over their head all their lives. They don't really think about those things... till you get out there and you say, "My stomach's growling now." Or, "It's getting cold out here. It's raining."

我就这么跑了。 你想，孩子离家出走…… 根本不会想自己要去哪儿落脚…… 怎么填饱肚子，这些一概不想。 他们从小到大头顶上一直有片瓦。 这些事他们真不会去想…… 直到你流落在外，才说：「我肚子现在饿得直叫。」 或者：「外头越来越冷，还下着雨。」

I got a call at my house about 3:30 one morning. One of the patrolmen in my department called... and said, "We just arrested this boy named David Harris... "and he won't even tell us his name. He said he wants to talk to you." They told me something that really made me interested. He'd been shot. David had initially told me that he had gone to a bar in Houston... and was flirting with a young lady and her boyfriend became upset... and chased him out with a pistol, shooting at him. We knew that wasn't true. I said, "David, I know you're lying to me. "We go through this all the time, all my dealings with you in the past. "I don't know what you've done just yet. "I know you were shot. "I know you were shot doing something that you shouldn't have been... "we know you burglarized a gun shop. We know you were driving drunk. "Got witnesses who can identify you, who can identify your truck." I said, "You're caught. So tell the truth." And David said, "Okay, I killed him." Their home was entered while he and his girlfriend were there alone. The man was sent into the bathroom at gunpoint and told to stay there. David took the girl and was starting to leave. The man exited the apartment with a gun. The man fell to the ground, or near the ground... holding onto a pole there in the parking lot of the apartment complex... and these last, whether it be two, three, or how many shots... I don't know, were fired at point-blank or near point-blank range. David thought that the one that was really at fault that night... was the guy that got killed. He said, "That guy's crazy. "He came after me with a gun." I told him, "David, you'd broken into his house... "you abducted his girlfriend, what was he supposed to do?" He said, "Man shouldn't come out with a gun. "That dude's crazy. He should have been killed." When we went to retrieve the pistol... I had to go into the water to get it. It was a bayou and it was grassy, snaky-looking area. I was not real pleased about being there myself... but David enjoyed watching me have to go down there and look for the gun. I'd been searching several minutes, he was up on the bridge... and probably 25 feet from me... directing me to where he thought that the gun had landed in the water. He was handcuffed. Traffic would come by, and he would turn around... and show them his handcuffs and holler at them, "Help me! "The officials will throw me in this water and drown me." Just anything he could do to make a joke and cut up out there. He was just really having a good time.

有天凌晨三点半左右，我家里电话响了。 我部门里一个巡警打来的…… 他说：「我们刚抓了个叫戴维·哈里斯的男孩…… 「他连名字都不肯说。他说想跟你谈。」 有件事让我顿时来了兴趣：他中过枪。 戴维一开始跟我说，他去了休斯敦一家酒吧…… 跟一个年轻姑娘搭讪，她男朋友火了…… 拿枪把他追出去，还朝他开枪。 我们知道那不是真的。 我说：「戴维，我知道你在骗我。 「咱们打过的交道里，这种事回回都这样。 「你干了什么我还不清楚。 「但我知道你中了枪。 「我知道你是在干不该干的事时中的枪…… 「我们知道你撬了枪店，还酒驾。 「有证人认得你，也认得你的卡车。」 我说：「你跑不掉了，说实话吧。」 戴维就说：「好吧，是我杀了他。」 他和他女朋友独自在家时，有人闯了进去。 那人被枪逼着进了浴室，叫他不许出来。 戴维带着那姑娘正要走。 那男人拿着枪冲出了公寓。 那男人倒在地上，或者说快倒地了…… 抓着公寓楼停车场里的一根柱子…… 最后那几枪，是两枪、三枪还是多少枪…… 我也说不准，反正都是抵近、甚至贴着身子开的枪。 戴维觉得那天晚上真正有错的…… 是被打死的那个人。他说：「那家伙疯了。 「他拿着枪追我。」 我跟他说：「戴维，你闯进他家…… 「还劫走了他女朋友，你说他能怎么办？」 他说：「他就不该拿着枪出来。 「那家伙疯了，他活该被打死。」 我们去打捞那把枪的时候…… 我得下水去捞。 那是条河汊，长满水草，看着就有蛇。 我自己也很不乐意待在那地方…… 可戴维看我不得不下去找枪，看得挺乐。 我找了好几分钟，他站在桥上…… 离我大概二十五英尺…… 指挥我到他认为枪落水的位置去。 他手上戴着手铐。 有车经过，他就转过身…… 把手铐亮给人家看，冲他们喊：「救救我！ 「这帮当官的要把我扔进水里淹死！」 怎么逗乐、怎么耍宝，他什么都干得出来。 他玩得可开心了。
