Chapter 8

CHAPTER EIGHT Jim and Stan took one look at the eager Timmy. "We'll come quietly, they said, and, when three more men came racing down the woodland path, there was no trouble at all.

第八章吉姆和斯坦看了一眼急切的蒂米。 “我们悄悄地来，”他们说，当又有三个人沿着林间小路飞奔而来时，一点麻烦也没有。

Jim and Stan went off with the policemen, Timmy gave one last fierce bark, and all Five watched the men, the motorbikes, and the sidecar disappear with many bumps up the path back to the main road. 'Well!' said George. 'Talk about a nice cool, lazy afternoon! I'm hotter than ever now!'

吉姆和斯坦跟着警察走了，蒂米最后凶狠地叫了一声，五个人都看着那些人、摩托车和挎斗在颠簸中消失在小路上，回到大路上。 “好!乔治说。“这是一个凉爽又慵懒的下午！”我现在比以前更热了！”

'Woof,' said Timmy, his tongue hanging out almost to the ground. He looked very hot, too. 'Well, you shouldn't go rabbiting,' said George. 'No wonder you're hot!' 'It's a very good thing he did go rabbiting!' said Dick. 'If he'd been with us, he'd have barked, and those men would have known we were here- and would have gone further on to hide their goods. We'd never have seen what they were doing, or have been able to catch them.' 'Yes. That's true,' said George, and patted Timmy. 'All right, Timmy- you were right to go rabbiting and to come back when you did!'

“汪，”蒂米说，他的舌头几乎垂到地上。 他看起来也很热。“好吧，你不应该去捉兔子，”乔治说。 “怪不得你这么热！”“他去捉兔子真是太好了！”迪克说。 “如果他和我们在一起，他会吠叫，那些人就会知道我们在这里——就会走得更远，把他们的东西藏起来。 我们永远不会看到它们在做什么，也无法捕捉到它们。“是的。 “那倒是真的。”乔治说着，拍拍蒂米。 “好吧，蒂米——你去捉兔子是对的，捉完就回来是对的！”

'Tea-time, everybody!' said Dick, looking at his watch. 'Well- what a very nice, peaceful, lazy afternoon! I really have enjoyed it!'

“下午茶时间,每个人!迪克看了看表说。 “嗯——多么美好、宁静、慵懒的下午啊！”我真的很喜欢！”
