Chapter 3

Chapter 3 "Can I help you?" asked Sugar. It was early Tuesday morning. A tiny blue bird had just shown up in the chicken coop. The ground was still wet from the sprinkler. She didn't wipe her feet before she came in. "I have a problem," said the little bird. "You sure do," answered Sugar. "You are leaving footprints all over my floor."

“我能帮你吗？”糖问道。 那是星期二的清晨。 一只蓝色的小鸟刚刚出现在鸡笼里。 洒过水的地面仍然是湿的。 她进来之前没有擦脚。 “我有一个问题，”小鸟说。 “你当然知道，”休格回答。 “你在我的地板上留下了脚印。”

"Oh, sorry," answered the little bird. "Uh-huh," said Sugar. Sugar came out from behind the old shoe she was using for a desk. "How did you find us?" "The giant sign outside the chicken coop," answered the bird. "Plus, there are these flyers all over the place." She handed Sugar a stack of fifteen flyers. "Did anybody follow you here?" asked Dirt. "I don't think so," said the little bird. "Check the door," said Sugar. The little bird went toward the door. "Not you, little bird," said Sugar, looking directly at her sister Dirt. Dirt jumped up out of the old shoe. She walked to the door. "Any more chicks in that desk?" asked the little bird, pointing at the shoe. "I'll ask the questions," answered Sugar. Sugar made some observations: Small Blue Tiny feet

“哦，对不起，”小鸟回答说。 “嗯哼，”糖说。休格从她当桌子用的旧鞋后面走了出来。 “你是怎么找到我们的？”“鸡笼外面的巨大标志。”鸟回答。 “另外，到处都是这些传单。” 她递给休格一叠十五张传单。 “有人跟踪你到这儿来吗？”泥土问。 “我不这么认为，”小鸟说。 “检查一下门，”糖说。 小鸟朝门口走去。 “不是你，小鸟，”糖糖说，直直地看着她的妹妹脏。 脏东西从旧鞋里蹦了出来。 她向门口走去。“桌子上还有小鸡吗？”小鸟指着那只鞋问。 “我来问问题，”休格回答。 Sugar做了一些观察：小小的蓝脚

Wings Possibly a weird blue chicken "Do you lay eggs?" asked Sugar. "That's a very strange question," said the little bird.

“你下蛋吗？”糖问道。 “这是一个非常奇怪的问题，”小鸟说。

Sugar made a new observation: Weird blue chicken does not like to answer questions. "I just need one more thing," said Sugar. She pulled a cotton swab out of the shoe. "What's that for?" asked the little bird. "I'm going to scrape under your arm with it." "Why would you do that?" asked the little bird. "For the smell," answered Sugar. "I give it to my dog friend, J. J. Now, hold still..." "I do not want my armpit scraped with a cotton swab," said the little bird. She backed away toward the door.

糖糖有了新的发现：奇怪的蓝鸡不喜欢回答问题。 “我还需要一样东西，”休格说。 她从鞋里拿出一根棉签。 “那是干什么用的？”小鸟问。 “我要用它刮你的胳膊下面。” “你为什么要这样做？”小鸟问。 “因为气味，”糖回答。 我把它给了我的狗朋友J。 现在，别动……”“我不想用棉签刮我的腋窝，”小鸟说。 她向门口退去。
