Chapter 23

Chapter 23 My phone rang. "Hello," I said. "Flytrap and Goat Detective Agency. This is Inspector Flytrap speaking." An excited voice told me about the greatest, most thrilling, BIG DEAL mystery ever! "I'm sorry," I said. "Nina and I are currently on vacation here at the city dump. We look forward to solving your mystery in two or three weeks... after Nina finishes eating." I hung up the phone and leaned back in my new pot—a priceless Grecian urn given to me by the art museum—and enjoyed the peace and quiet. Well, quiet except for the buzzing of the countless flies that swarmed around the dump. Mmmmm... Tasty, tasty flies!

我的电话响了。“你好，”我说。 捕蝇和山羊侦探事务所。 我是捕蝇草探长。” 一个激动的声音告诉我，这是有史以来最伟大、最激动人心的大交易之谜！“对不起，”我说。 “妮娜和我现在正在城市垃圾场度假。 我们期待在两三个星期内解开你的谜团…… 等妮娜吃完。” 我挂了电话，靠在我的新花盆里——艺术博物馆送给我的一个价值不菲的希腊骨灰盒——享受着这里的宁静。 嗯，很安静，除了无数苍蝇在垃圾场周围嗡嗡作响。 嗯……美味，美味的苍蝇！
