Caroline: Max, don't do this to me. I know where the bodies are buried, literally.
Max别这么对我，我知道你把尸体埋在哪儿，真的哦。

我每六个月转移一次。

知识点讲解：

1、真实的/没夸张

那个队赢了冠军赛之后街上不夸张的说有几千人在跳舞。

【例句二】

Graham真的把Janice踢出了家门，脚都踢到她屁股了。

2、加强语气

这天气我真的要冻死了，我都感觉不到我身体的任何一部分了。

【例句二】

情景对话：
Caroline: And, well Han, I don't wanna have to tell you this, I know this is the last thing you ever want to hear…
