It was just getting dark. There was a touch of fog and I was on a lonely stretch of road.   36
I was going along cheerfully, thinking about the dinner I would eat when I got to Salistury.
I was going along   37  at about thirty-five miles an hour when suddenly I heard a scream, a  38  scream--- “ Help! ” I looked round, but the only   39  of life was a large, black, rather suspicious-looking car just   40   a bend in the road about a hundred yards away. That was where the cry had come from. I   41   speed and went after it. I think the driver saw what I was doing, for he did the same and began to draw   42   me. As I drew near, the girl’s voice came again, a lovely voice but trembling with   43   .
“Let me go, you coward; you’re hurting me. Oh ! Oh ! ”
I felt my   44   boil. The fog was coming down   45   now, and the countryside was lonelier. I had no  46  that the murderous guy in the car noticed this. Again came a cry.
“Drop that knife, you fool. Oh ! ” Then a cry and a groan（呻吟）.
If I was to save her, it was now or   47  . Perhaps even now I was too late. But if I couldn’t save the girl, I would at least try to bring the murderer to   48  . The car was only a couple of yards away now. I drove the bike right across its   49  , and its brakes screamed as the driver tried to pull it over and   50   into the ditch（沟）at the side of the road. The door of the car was pushed open angrily and a dark, evil-looking fellow stepped out .
“You fool!” he shouted as he came towards me with his fist raised to hit me. But I was   51   than he. I put all I could into   52   that would have knocked out Joe Louis. It   53   him right on the point of the chin; his  54   slowly bent under him, and he dropped to the ground without a sound. I rushed to the car,   55   open the door and looked inside. There was no girl there. Suddenly from the back of the car came a voice.
“You have been listening to a radio play, Murder in Hollywood, with Mae Garbo and Clark Taylor. The news will follow immediately . ”
