Chapter 21

21 KLINK, KLANK, AND FRANK EINSTEIN SEARCH ALL OF MIDVILLE for Watson. Watson is not at the lab. He is not at his house. Frank searches north. Klink searches east. Klank searches west. Watson is not at the library, the park, the candy store, the diner, the baseball diamond, the oak tree above town. No Watson uptown,

克林克、克兰克和弗兰克·爱因斯坦在整个米德维尔寻找沃森。 沃森不在实验室。他不在家。 弗兰克向北搜索。Klink向东搜索。 克兰克向西搜索。沃森不在图书馆，不在公园，不在糖果店，不在餐厅，不在棒球场，不在镇上的橡树。 没有华生，

downtown, east side, west side. No Watson anywhere. Frank, Klink, and Klank meet back at the lab. They sit down at the workbench, and Frank rolls out a map of Midville that they study, puzzling over where Watson could be. "If Watson had a GPS signal like I do," says Klink, "I could track him on my map." "If Watson could sing robot songs like I do," says Klank, "I could find him with my song locator." "He doesn't have a GPS, and he can't sing at all," says Frank. "But if I know Watson, he's trying to solve this mystery." "What mystery?" beeps Klank. "The mystery of why Edison is buying up energy-supply companies... and wrecking them." Frank scratches his head. "What was the last thing Watson said?" Klink checks his robot memory. He replays

市中心，东区，西区。 哪里都没有华生。弗兰克，Klink和Klank在实验室碰头。 他们在工作台前坐了下来，弗兰克拿出一张米德维尔的地图，让他们研究，困惑地想知道沃森可能在哪里。 “如果沃森像我一样有GPS信号，”Klink说，“我就能在地图上追踪他。” “如果沃森能像我一样唱机器人歌曲，”克兰克说，“我就能用我的歌曲定位器找到他。” “他没有GPS，他根本不会唱歌，”弗兰克说。 “但以我对华生的了解，他正在努力解开这个谜团。” “什么神秘？”克兰克嘟嘟地问。 “爱迪生收购能源供应公司的神秘之处…… 然后破坏它们。”弗兰克挠了挠头。 “华生说的最后一句话是什么？”Klink检查他的机器人记忆。 他回放

Watson's "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" "No," says Frank. "Before that. The thing he said about tracking something down." Klink searches his records. He plays: "We have to find out who this helps. We have to follow the energy." "That's it!" says Frank. "That's our answer to where Watson is. He followed the energy. To the one energy source still working." "The robot monster's house?" asks Klank. Frank Einstein mentally checks off the destroyed power sources: —the Midville Coal Plant —the Midville Wind Farm —the Midville Solar Array Grampa Al sticks his head in Frank's lab to complain about losing all electricity. "That darn Midville Power and Light company!" "Exactly," says Frank. "Huh?" says Klank.

沃森的“Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee !”“不，”弗兰克说。 “在那之前。他说要追踪什么东西。” Klink搜索了他的记录。 他说：“我们必须找出这对谁有帮助。 我们必须跟着能量走。” “就是这样！”弗兰克说。“这就是我们对华生的答案。 他跟着能量走。献给唯一还在使用的能源。” “机器怪物的房子？”克兰克问。 弗兰克·爱因斯坦在脑子里检查被破坏的能源来源：-米德维尔燃煤电厂-米德维尔风力发电厂-米德维尔太阳能阵列爷爷把他的头伸到弗兰克的实验室里抱怨失去了所有的电力。 “那个该死的米德维尔电力照明公司！”“没错，”弗兰克说。 “嗯？”克兰克说。

Twenty minutes later, at the shoreline of the lake just above the only power-supply source in Midville still working—the Midville Hydroelectric Dam—Frank Einstein is, once again, proved right. "Watson!" booms Klank. He gives Watson, who happens to be tied and taped to the front of an inflatable raft, a giant Klank hug. "Watson!" beeps Klink from the bottom of the raft, where Klank has dropped him. "Exactly," says Frank, hopping into the raft to untape him. "Watson." Everyone is so excited that no one notices a long, dark, not-human hand untie the raft, push it gently out into the water flowing toward the dam, and sign:

20分钟后，在米德维尔唯一仍在工作的电源——米德维尔水电站——上方的湖边，弗兰克·爱因斯坦再一次被证明是正确的。 “华生！”克兰克大喊道。沃森碰巧被绑在一艘充气筏子的前面，他给了沃森一个巨大的克兰克拥抱。 “华生！”克林克从木筏底部嘟嘟地叫道，克林克把他摔在了那里。 “没错，”弗兰克说，跳上木筏给他松绑。 “沃森”。每个人都很兴奋，没有人注意到一只长长的，黑色的，非人类的手解开木筏，轻轻地把它推到流向大坝的水中，并示意：
