Famous Five · 12 The Mysterious Noise

Chapter 3

CHAPTER THREE Later, the Five left their full sacks at the collection point and then walked to the red phone box at the base of the cliffs. They all piled inside, including Timmy who got stuck between George's and Dick's legs.

后来,五人把装满东西的麻袋放在集合点,然后走向悬崖底部的红色电话亭。 他们都挤了进去,包括蒂米,他夹在乔治和迪克的腿中间。
