地道表達(dá)：

murder will out

解詞釋義：

此語(yǔ)為cannot be hidden，用以指“事情暴露了，秘密揭穿了，惡事終必?cái)÷丁?。與之同意的2條諺語(yǔ)如下：The truth will come to light.（真相終將告白。）Murder cannot be his long.（謀殺者不可能長(zhǎng)久躲避。）

支持范例：

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

他們的密約終于被揭露了，我常說(shuō)紙是包不住火的。

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

若要人不知，除非己莫為。你小心，事情總有被揭發(fā)的一天！
