23. The Twenty-Third Chapter

CHAPTER 23 THE TWENTY-THIRD CHAPTER Captain Underpants (with the help of his newly developed super powers) had defeated the deliriously dangerous death- defying Dandelion of Doom! Now the only thing left to do was to stop the evil zombie nerds. "Oh, HOW are we going to conquer the evil zombie nerds?" asked George. "How will we ever change them back to normal?"

第二十三章内裤船长（在他新发展起来的超能力的帮助下）打败了疯狂危险、不顾死亡的末日蒲公英！现在唯一要做的就是阻止邪恶的僵尸呆子。 “哦，我们怎么才能征服那些邪恶的僵尸书呆子呢？”乔治问。 “我们怎么才能把它们变回正常呢？”

"Well, we could try this Anti-Evil Zombie Nerd Juice," said Harold. George rolled his eyes. "I was hoping for something a little more dramatic," he said, "but we're running out of pages. Let's do it."

“嗯，我们可以试试这种防恶僵尸书呆子果汁。”哈罗德说。 乔治翻了个白眼。“我本来希望写得更有戏剧性一点，”他说，“但我们的页数快用完了。 让我们开始吧。”

So Harold mixed up a batch of Anti- Evil Zombie Nerd Root Beer, and ordered everybody in the school to drink some. The evil zombie nerds lined up. "Must drink root beer," they moaned. "Must drink root beer."

于是哈罗德调了一批防恶僵尸书呆子根啤酒，并命令全校的人都喝了一些。 邪恶的僵尸书呆子们排起了队。 “必须喝根汁汽水。”他们抱怨道。 “必须喝根汁汽水。”

When the last zombie nerd had swallowed his last sip of root beer, George ordered Captain Underpants to get dressed back up like Mr. Krupp. "But I'll lose my super powers if I put on clothing," said Captain Underpants. "The power of underwear must be—" "Just put the clothes on, bub!" George instructed.

当最后一个僵尸书呆子咽下最后一口沙士时，乔治命令内裤队长穿上克虏伯先生的衣服。 “但是如果我穿上衣服，我就会失去我的超能力，”内裤队长说。 “内衣的力量一定是——”“把衣服穿上吧，伙计！”乔治指示。

Captain Underpants did as he was told, and then George poured water over the hero's head. "Now all we can do is wait," said Harold. "Wait and hope that everybody returns to normal."

内裤队长照他说的做了，然后乔治把水倒在英雄的头上。 “现在我们能做的只有等了。”哈罗德说。 “等待并希望所有人都能恢复正常。”
