Chapter 11

CHAPTER 11 "Okay, guys, what are we gonna do to Edgar?" Michael said as he plopped down his tray of chicken nuggets. "We?" said Sadie. "Don't bring me into this." "How did he get so big?" Justin wondered nervously as he looked across the lunchroom at Edgar, who was sitting next to his two cronies at the fourth-grade table. "I mean, he'd be huge even for an eighth grader." "If nobody else has any ideas, I thought of one that involves a tree, a bus, and a bucket of goo," Michael said. "Does it also involve getting destroyed by Edgar?" Justin asked. Sadie nodded. "That would be a yes." "Be brave, Justin!" Michael said. "This is bigger than us. We're doing this for fifth graders everywhere! Vengeance will be ours!" "I really wish you would stop saying we," Sadie said. "Excuse me." Merle popped out of Michael's backpack, holding a half-eaten chicken nugget. "These are AMAZING!! What do you call these things?" "Chicken nuggets," Michael said.

第十一章“好了，伙计们，我们该怎么处置埃德加？”迈克尔边说边放下他那盘鸡块。 “我们？”赛迪说。“别把我扯进来。” “它是怎么长这么大的？”贾斯廷看着饭厅对面的埃德加，紧张地想，埃德加正和他的两个密友坐在四年级的桌子旁边。 “我的意思是，即使对一个八年级学生来说，他也很高大。” 迈克尔说：“如果没有人有任何想法，我想到了一个涉及一棵树、一辆公共汽车和一桶粘稠物的想法。” “也包括被埃德加毁掉吗？”贾斯汀问。 赛迪点点头。“那就是肯定的。” “勇敢点，贾斯汀！”迈克尔说。 “这比我们更重要。我们在为各地的五年级学生做这个！复仇是我们的！”“我真的希望你不要再说‘我们’了，”赛迪说。 “对不起。”梅尔从迈克尔的背包里跳出来，手里拿着一块吃了一半的鸡块。 “这些太棒了！！”你们管这些东西叫什么？”“鸡块，”迈克尔说。

"The next time I see any chickens, I will thank them for their nuggets." Merle finished off his nugget and grabbed another. "Do you two have any ideas for an epic prank?" Michael asked the squirrels. "Prank?" Pearl questioned. "Yeah, something we can do to really embarrass Edgar, this kid who's always humiliating us," Michael replied. "Like revenge?" Merle asked. "Yep!" Michael smiled. "I want to give Edgar a taste of his own medicine!"

“下次我看到鸡的时候，我会感谢它们给我的鸡块。” 莫尔吃完了他的金块，又抓了一块。 “你们俩有什么绝妙的恶作剧主意吗？”迈克尔问松鼠们。 “恶作剧?”珍珠质疑。 “是的，我们可以做一些让埃德加难堪的事，这个总是羞辱我们的孩子，”迈克尔回答。 “报复?”默尔问道。 “是的!”迈克尔笑了。“我想让埃德加尝尝他自己的药！”

Pearl frowned. "Revenge is never a good idea." "See? That's exactly what I said!" Sadie tried to give Pearl a fist bump. Pearl, not familiar with the art of the fist bump, simply reached out and patted the top of Sadie's hand. "Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you," Pearl said. "Oh! Oh! Sre uh Garrreee!" Merle piped in, his mouth full of nugget. "What?!" asked Pearl and the kids. Merle gulped down his food and repeated, "Sea of Galilee. I remember that..."

珍珠皱起了眉头。“复仇从来不是个好主意。” “看到了吗?我就是这么说的！”赛迪想和珀尔碰个拳。 珀尔不熟悉碰拳的技巧，只是伸出手拍了拍赛迪的手背。 “你希望别人怎样对待你，你就怎样对待别人，”珀尔说。 “哦！哦！是呃，加里！”默尔插嘴道，嘴里还塞着一块金块。 “什么？！”珠儿和孩子们问。 梅尔吞下他的食物，重复道：“加利利海。 我记得……”
