& ]* n- g+ H9 K# w4 L: wWell, first I have to visit this guy Ned knows from school, Henry Bolet. Apparently Henry's uncle just died and he had to go down to New Orleans for a couple of weeks. Ned says Henry's a nice guy but kind of a loner who might appreciate a little company. He said he抎 call Henry and tell him I was coming.

So here's the plan: when we land, Bess is going to head to our hotel in the French Quarter with our luggage while I take a cab out to the mansion  where Henry is staying. Bess'll get us settled in, I'll talk to Henry, and then..... "Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler"!

翻译如下：

        各位期待ND16水晶骷髅传说的的故事？Nancy也一样为能够到New Orleans这座古老的历史城市度假而兴奋！当然，神秘事件总会跟随Nancy的步伐，所以这一定又是一段有趣的旅程，况且这次还有Bess同行呢～。以下奉献每集故事开头的Opening Letter，各位也好先预习一下ND16的故事梗概。

        对了，在此之前我还得先去拜访一下Ned的朋友Henry Bolet。最近他Uncle去世，他正在New Orleans处理后事。Ned说Henry虽然有点孤僻，但人相当好，或许旅途上能给我们一点帮助。

        我们的计划是这样的： Bess直接到French Quarter那边的旅馆办里手续，而我则先去Henry的公馆稍作逗留，然后……当然是“Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler!”（英文：Let The Good Times Roll，中文：及时行乐）。

这回跑新奥尔良去了，联想到炸鸡翅

New Orleans是美国最快下沉的一个州，又是爵士乐的起源地，第十七集会不会也是和环保题材有关呢，或许谜题涉及爵士元素可能会更有意思 呵呵
