第四图书馆 · 13 The Midnight Ghosts
Chapter 5 Restless night Adam and Sally climbed quickly into bed. "I'm sure we'll feel better in the morning," said Sally, bravely.
第五章不安的夜晚亚当和莎莉迅速爬上了床。 “我相信明天早上我们就会好起来的,"莎莉勇敢地说。
They hadn't been asleep long when a heavy thump woke them. A large notebook had landed on the floor. As they watched, wobbly lines began to appear on its pages... Yeowww! A second later, the wardrobe door creaked open.
他们没睡多久,就被一声沉重的重击惊醒了。 一个大笔记本掉在了地板上。 在他们注视的时候,书页上开始出现一些不稳定的线条…… Yeowww !一秒钟后,衣柜门嘎吱一声开了。
An invisible hand was writing on the dusty mirror. BEWARE! DANGER- NOT MUCH TIME... Sally and Adam clung to each other as an icy wind whooshed into the room. It lifted up a tattered newspaper from the fireplace and carried it over to Sally.
一只看不见的手在满是灰尘的镜子上写字。 小心!危险——时间不多了…… 冷风吹进房间时,莎莉和亚当紧紧抱在一起。 它从壁炉里拿起一张破报纸,递给莎莉。
Horror at Twelve At twelve o'clock last night, Mervin Midnight (52) was hit on the head by a jar of pickled lizards. The accident happened at Twelve Bells End, the Midnight family home. Indeed, every year, as the clock strikes midnight on December 12, strange accidents have happened at the Midnights' mansion. Mervin Midnight is recovering well. He has decided to give up his job at the bank and join the circus instead. "Mervin Midnight was one of the strange men at dinner!" cried Sally.
12点恐怖昨晚12点,默文·子夜(52)被一罐腌蜥蜴击中了头部。 事故发生在十二钟巷,午夜家族的家。 的确,每年12月12日午夜钟声敲响的时候,“午夜之宅”就会发生奇怪的事故。 默文·午夜恢复得很好。 他已决定放弃银行的工作而加入马戏团。 “默文·午夜是晚餐上的陌生人之一!”莎莉叫道。
Other Midnight victims The strange accidents have had lasting effects on the unfortunate Midnight victims. Posy Midnight on stage Famous dancer, Posy Midnight, fell down a flight of stairs. She has recently been spotted playing soccer. Joker playing tricks Joker Midnight slipped on a banana skin. Friends say he now prefers mathematics to jokes. Mildred Midnight and Arthur Midnight suffered even worse accidents. Unfortunately, neither of them survived. "This house isn't safe," whimpered Adam.
这些奇怪的事故对那些不幸的午夜受害者产生了持久的影响。 著名舞蹈家波西·午夜从楼梯上摔了下来。 最近有人看到她在踢足球。 午夜小丑踩到香蕉皮滑倒了。 朋友们说他现在更喜欢数学而不是笑话。 午夜米尔德丽德和午夜亚瑟遭遇了更严重的事故。 不幸的是,他们两个都没能活下来。 “这房子不安全,”亚当呜咽着说。
