5 More Ghost Trouble

CHAPTER 5 MORE GHOST TROUBLE "What the devil is that?" Beckett asked as Cosmo dog-paddled around the entryway of the library. "My dog, Cosmo," Kaz said with a grin. "Woof! Woof!" Cosmo barked. "Okay." Beckett leaped out of the dog's way. "Maybe a better question is: Why is he here?" Kaz didn't think that was a better question. He thought it was a strange question. "Because I'm here," he said. "Cosmo is my dog, so he should be with me." "We're going to bring all of Kaz's family

“那是什么鬼东西？”贝克特问道，《宇宙》杂志的狗在图书馆的入口通道上划来划去。 “我的狗，科斯莫，”卡兹笑着说。 “汪!汪!”科兹摩吠叫。 “好吧。”贝克特跳开挡住狗的路。 “也许一个更好的问题是：他为什么在这里？”卡兹不认为这是一个更好的问题。 他觉得这是个奇怪的问题。 “因为我在这里，”他说。 “Cosmo是我的狗，所以它应该和我在一起” “我们会把卡兹的家人都带来

here," Claire said as she dropped her detective bag by the door and kicked off her shoes. "Once we find them all." "What?" Beckett exclaimed, his hat flying off his head. "No! You can't!" "Why not?" Claire asked. Beckett grabbed his hat and placed it firmly back on his head. "Because this is a library, not a hotel. There isn't room for Kaz's whole family." He darted out of the way as Cosmo dog-paddled past again. "What are you talking about? There's plenty of room," Kaz said. The library was almost as big as his old haunt. "Not in my private haunt, there isn't," Beckett said. "No one said we'd all live there," Kaz said. Kaz had never even seen Beckett's secret room. "Meow," called a soft voice from the stairs. Claire's cat, Thor, peeked between the slats of the railing.

克莱尔边说边把她的侦探包丢在门边，踢掉了鞋子。 “只要我们把他们都找出来。”“什么?”贝克特喊道，他的帽子从头上飞了下来。 “不!你不能!”“为什么不?”克莱尔问道。 贝克特抓起帽子，稳稳地戴在头上。 “因为这里是图书馆，不是酒店。 这里容不下卡兹全家。” 当宇宙号再次划过时，他迅速闪开。 “你在说什么？” 有足够的空间，”卡兹说。 图书馆几乎和他常去的地方一样大。 “在我的私人场所没有，”贝克特说。 “没人说我们都会住在那里，”卡兹说。 卡兹甚至从未见过贝克特的密室。 “喵！”楼梯上传来一个柔和的声音。 克莱尔的猫托尔从栏杆的板条间偷看。

"Uh-oh," Kaz said. He knew Thor didn't like him very much, and it looked as though Thor liked ghost dogs even less than he liked ghost boys. But Cosmo wasn't afraid of Thor. "Woof! Woof!" Cosmo barked, lunging at the solid cat. "MEOW!" Thor spun on his heels and bounded up the stairs. Cosmo tore after Thor. He chased Claire's cat upstairs... then downstairs... then upstairs again... then back downstairs and into the children's room. Claire, Kaz, and Beckett raced after them. Grandma Karen gasped as Thor leaped up onto her desk. Cosmo nipped at Thor's tail, and Thor turned around and hissed. He batted his paw at Cosmo, but his paw passed through the ghost dog. "Cosmo!" Kaz said at the same time Claire said, "Thor!" "Good heavens!" Grandma Karen sank back against her chair. "What's the matter with that

“哦哦，”卡兹说。他知道托尔不太喜欢他，看来托尔喜欢鬼狗的程度甚至超过了喜欢鬼男孩的程度。 但是宇宙并不害怕托尔。 “汪!汪!”科斯莫咆哮着，扑向那只结实的猫。 “喵呜!”托尔转身跳上楼梯。 宇宙追赶雷神。他追着克莱尔的猫上楼…… 然后楼下…然后又上楼…… 然后回到楼下，进入孩子们的房间。 克莱尔、卡兹和贝克特追赶着他们。 托尔跳上她的桌子时，凯伦奶奶倒吸了一口气。 宇宙侠咬住了托尔的尾巴，托尔转过身来，发出嘶嘶声。 他用爪子打科斯莫，但爪子穿过了那只幽灵狗。 “都市性!”卡兹说，同时克莱尔说：“托尔！”“天啊!”凯伦奶奶靠在椅子上。 “这是怎么回事？

cat?" Cosmo lunged for Thor. Thor jumped down and darted across the room. Cosmo stayed right on his tail. They ran from room to room until they couldn't run anymore. Then, they dropped to their bellies at opposite ends of the entryway. "Well, that was entertaining," Beckett said with half a smile. "I changed my mind. The dog can stay." "Woof! Woof!" "MEOW!" "Woof! Woof!" "MEOW!" Claire had a hard time sleeping that night. So did Grandma Karen. A little after midnight, Kaz heard Grandma Karen's bedroom door creak open. "What's the trouble, Thor?" Grandma Karen whispered out in the hallway. "Where are you running off to in such a hurry?" Claire threw her covers off and went to open

猫?”宇宙向雷神扑去。 托尔跳下来，飞快地穿过房间。 科斯莫一直跟在他后面。 他们从一个房间跑到另一个房间，直到再也跑不动了。 然后，他们在入口通道的两端俯伏在地。 “嗯，那很有趣，”贝克特半笑着说。 “我改变了主意。狗可以留下来。” “汪!汪!”“喵呜!”“汪!汪!”“喵呜!”克莱尔那晚很难入睡。 卡伦奶奶也是。午夜刚过，卡兹听到珈伦奶奶卧室的门吱吱地开了。 “怎么了，托尔？”凯伦奶奶在走廊里小声说。 “你这么急着要跑到哪里去？”克莱尔掀开被子去开门

her door. "Did Thor wake you up, too?" Grandma Karen asked. "Yeah, I guess," Claire replied with a yawn. Grandma Karen shook her head. "That cat has been acting strange all day. It's like he sees something that isn't there." Claire bit her lip. Back in her bedroom, Claire told Kaz, "Your dog and my cat will make friends with each other eventually. They just need to get used to each other." Kaz hoped she was right. The next morning, all was quiet inside the library. Too quiet, Kaz and Claire agreed. "Thor?" Claire called. "Cosmo?" Kaz called. Neither animal came when they were called. "I wonder where they are," Claire said. Kaz followed Claire into the kitchen. Claire

她的门。“托尔也把你吵醒了吗？”卡伦奶奶问。 “是的，我想，”克莱尔打了个哈欠回答。 卡伦奶奶摇了摇头。 “那只猫一整天都怪怪的。 就好像他看到了不存在的东西。” 克莱尔咬着嘴唇。回到卧室，克莱尔告诉卡兹：“你的狗和我的猫最终会成为朋友的。 他们只需要习惯彼此。” 卡兹希望她是对的。第二天早上，图书馆里一片寂静。 太安静了，卡兹和克莱尔一致认为。 “托尔?”克莱尔。“都市性?”Kaz调用。 叫它们的时候，两只动物都没来。 “我想知道他们在哪里，”克莱尔说。 卡兹跟着克莱尔进了厨房。 克莱尔
