2 The Mystery of the Missing Mr Big Nose

CHAPTER 2 THE MYSTERY OF THE MISSING MR BIG NOSE If you're like most of our readers, you're probably wondering how old we are. Well, it's funny you should be wondering that because today is actually my birthday! I can't wait to see what sort of amazing surprise Terry has planned for me. He's probably in the kitchen baking a cake for me right now.

如果你和我们的大多数读者一样，你可能想知道我们有多大了。 你想知道这个很有趣，因为今天是我的生日！我迫不及待地想看看特里为我准备了什么样的惊喜。 他现在可能正在厨房给我烤蛋糕呢。

Hang on… I'm in the kitchen… and there's no cake- baking going on here. Hmmm. He knows how much I love juggling chainsaws. Maybe he's planning on throwing me a surprise party on the chainsaw-juggling level! Nope. There are a few chainsaws, a bit of blood and a couple of severed fingers, but no Terry and— even worse—no party!

等一下……我在厨房……这里没有烤蛋糕。 嗯。他知道我有多喜欢玩电锯。 也许他打算在链锯杂耍层给我一个惊喜派对！不。 有几把链锯，一点血和几根断了的手指，但没有特里，更糟糕的是，没有派对！

Perhaps he's planning a make-your-own-pizza party… I climb up to the make-your-own-pizza parlour, acting like I've got no idea that Terry's waiting for me and… guess what?

我爬上自制披萨店，装作完全不知道特里在等我，你猜怎么着？

He's not! Okay. I think I know what's going on— I bet he's forgotten all about my birthday and he's in that stupid Ninja Snail Training Academy! He's been spending all his time there lately trying to turn a bunch of dumb snails into Ninjas (which, of course, as everyone knows, is totally impossible!).

他不是!好吧。我想我知道是怎么回事了——我敢打赌他把我的生日全忘了，他在那个愚蠢的忍者蜗牛训练学院！他最近一直在那里试图把一群哑巴蜗牛变成忍者（当然，大家都知道，这是完全不可能的！）

I climb up to the Ninja Snail Training Academy and, sure enough, there he is.

我爬到忍者蜗牛训练学院，果然，他就在那里。

'Oh, hi, Andy!' says Terry. 'I'm just training my Ninja Snails. 'Watch this!' 'Attack!' 'Fly!' 'Use super Ninja stealth!'

“哦，嗨，安迪！”特里说。 “我正在训练我的忍者蜗牛。 “看这个!”“攻击!“飞!“使用超级忍者隐身！”
