Chapter 8

Chapter 8 Dirt, Sugar, Poppy, and Sweetie turned around to see the rabbit emerging from a dark corner of the hutch. "We've been looking all over for you!" cried Dirt. "We thought you made a break for it and ran back into the wild!" "You must be the chickens that were spying on me from the maple tree and the gutter along the back of the house," said the rabbit. "I told you it was spying!" said Sweetie. "I prefer observing," added Dirt. "You knew you were under surveillance?" asked Sugar. "But, how?" "I'm a wild animal, kid," said the rabbit. "I've got instincts. I know when I'm being watched." "Listen, Sparkles, we're the ones out in the wild with nothing but mustaches and marshmallows.

土、糖、波比和小甜甜转过身来，看见兔子从黑洞洞的角落里钻了出来。 “我们到处找你！”泥土叫道。 “我们以为你逃走了，跑回野外去了！”“你们一定是那些从枫树上和房子后面的阴沟里监视我的鸡，”兔子说。 “我告诉过你这是间谍！”甜心说。 “我更喜欢观察。”泥土补充道。 “你知道有人在监视你吗？”休格问。 “但是,如何?”“我是一只野兽，孩子，”兔子说。 “我有直觉。我知道有人在监视我。” “听着，闪闪，我们是野外的人，除了胡子和棉花糖什么都没有。

You're the one in a bunny box, eating salad out of a bowl." Sugar grabbed a piece of the rabbit's lettuce and took a big chomp. "My name is not Sparkles," said the rabbit. "It is to me," replied Sugar. "You can't do that. You can't just change somebody's name," answered the rabbit. "There are no rules in the wild, kid," replied Sugar. "Deal with it." "What were you doing in that box?" asked Dirt. "It's my hiding box," answered the rabbit. "Barbara built it into the hutch for me. Lots of rabbits have

你是那个在兔子盒子里，用碗吃沙拉的人。” 糖抓起一片兔子的莴苣，大嚼了一大口。 “我的名字不叫闪闪，”兔子说。 “对我来说是，”休格回答。 “你不能这么做。你不能随便改变一个人的名字。”兔子回答。 “孩子，在野外是没有规矩的，”休格回答。 “处理它。”“你在那个盒子里干什么？”泥土问。 “这是我的藏宝箱，”兔子回答。 “芭芭拉为我把它装进了厨房。 很多兔子都有

them. I sensed the storm and came in here." "Sensed the storm?" said Sugar suspiciously. "What kind of bunny mumbo jumbo is that?" "Like I said," replied the rabbit. "I'm a wild animal. I can sense things...." "Listen, kid," said Sugar, "if you want to pretend you're a wild animal with special senses, well, you know what, bunny, that's okay by me. Sometimes I pretend that I crashed to Earth on a meteorite and that's how I got my superpowers of survival and surveillance." "I really am a wild animal," said the rabbit. "And I really do have heightened senses."

他们。我感觉到了暴风雨，就进来了。” “感觉到暴风雨了吗？”休格怀疑地说。 “这是什么兔子的胡言乱语？”“就像我说的，”兔子回答。 “我是一只野兽。我能感觉到东西....” “听着，孩子，”休格说，“如果你想假装自己是一只有特殊感官的野生动物，嗯，你知道吗，兔子，我可以接受。 有时我假装自己是被陨石撞到地球上的，这就是我获得生存和监视超能力的原因。” “我真的是一只野兽，”兔子说。 “我的感觉确实很灵敏。”

"You're a dreamer, kid," said Sugar. "I like that about you. Don't change." "Your hiding box is just like my old shoe!" said Poppy. "It helps me feel safe, and it doesn't smell very good." "That's my litter box, kid," said the rabbit. "The hiding box is on the other side." "Come look!" cried Sweetie. "The rain stopped, and it's beautiful!" The chickens and the rabbit rushed toward the door. "Is it a rainbow?" asked Poppy. "No, it's MOM!" yelled Sweetie. "She's coming up the ramp to save us!" "Uh-oh," mumbled Sugar. Moosh swung the door open and gathered up all her chicks.

“你是个梦想家，孩子，”休格说。 “我喜欢你这点。不改变。” “你的藏宝盒就像我的旧鞋！”波比说。 “它让我感到安全，而且味道不太好。” “那是我的猫砂盒，孩子，”兔子说。 “藏盒在另一边。” “快来看！”甜心叫道。 “雨停了，真漂亮！”鸡和兔子冲向门口。 “是彩虹吗？”波比问。 “不，是妈妈！” “她从坡道上来救我们了！”“哦哦，”休格咕哝着。 木什把门打开，把她所有的小鸡都抱了起来。

"Did you sense that we were in danger, Mom?" asked Poppy. "No," replied Moosh. "Sweetie left me a note and a pair of binoculars. I was watching you from the high perch in the chicken coop the whole time." "You were spying on us?" demanded Sugar. "I call it observing," said Moosh. "Well, it sure feels like spying to me!" Sugar protested. She turned to face Sweetie. "Why would you leave Mom a note?" "Just a survival skill I picked up," replied Sweetie.

“妈妈，你感觉到我们有危险吗？”波比问。 “没有。”木什回答。“甜心给我留了一张纸条和一副望远镜。 我一直站在鸡舍的高处看着你。” “你在暗中监视我们？”休格质问道。 “我把它叫做观察。”木什说。 “嗯，对我来说，这确实像是间谍！”糖抗议。 她转过身来面对甜心。 “你为什么要给妈妈留纸条？”“这是我学到的一项生存技能，”小甜心回答。
