We shouldn't interpret Polly's expression literally! She is not saying that 'there are no bells on Conklin', but rather that she is unfamiliar with this particular street.
This is the correct choice. The English idiom 'that doesn't ring a bell' means 'that doesn't sound familiar', or 'I haven't heard of that'. Here, Polly is expressing that Conklin Avenue is 'unfamiliar to her' or that she has never heard of the street.
Although Jean does seem concerned by his current surroundings, this is not what Polly is expressing when she says 'that doesn't ring a bell'.
This is not what Polly is expressing when she says 'that doesn't ring a bell'.
