9 FOUND!

CHAPTER 9 FOUND! Is that...?" Little John stared at the ghostly shoe that floated in front of him. Kaz grabbed the shoe and turned it all around. "It sure looks like Finn's shoe," he said. The voice sounded like Finn's, too. "Finn?" Kaz called. "Are you here?" A ghost boy's head popped through the floor in front of Kaz. "I thought you wanted to play hide- and-seek," the boy said as he rose through the floor. "But you're not even hiding. Got you!" He tagged Kaz. "Got you, too!" He tagged Little John. Kaz and Little John gaped at their big brother. It really was him!

第九章找到了！这是…吗?”小约翰凝视着在他面前飘浮的幽灵般的鞋子。 卡兹抓住鞋子，把它翻过来。 “看起来确实像芬恩的鞋，”他说。 这声音听起来也像芬恩的声音。 “芬恩?”Kaz调用。“你在这儿吗？”一个鬼男孩的头从和子面前的地板上探了出来。 “我还以为你想玩捉迷藏呢。”男孩边说边从地板上站起来。 “可你连躲都没躲。 得到你!”他给卡兹做了标记。“也抓到你了！”他给小约翰做了标记。 卡兹和小约翰目瞪口呆地看着他们的哥哥。 真的是他！

"You're the ghost at Eli's house?" Little John said, not quite believing it. "Yes," Finn said. "You're the one who dropped the marbles down the stairs?" Kaz said. "You're the one who left that book on Eli's bed and made everyone think Eli was trying to scare people away? And you're the one who kept appearing and disappearing in front of Eli?"

“你就是伊莱家的鬼魂？”小约翰说，他不太相信。 “是的，”芬恩说。“是你把弹珠从楼梯上摔下来的？”Kaz说。 “是你把那本书放在伊莱的床上，让大家以为伊莱想把人吓跑的？” 你就是那个一直在伊莱面前出现又消失的人吗？”

"Yes. Yes. And yes!" Finn said. "Why?" Kaz asked. "And why didn't you let us know you were here? You must have known we were here. We've been here for hours!" "I wanted to see if you could figure it out," Finn said with a shrug. "I thought you were a big- shot detective now." Kaz narrowed his eyes. "How do you know I'm a detective?" he asked. "A few months ago, I heard Eli talking about a girl detective who finds and catches ghosts," Finn said. "Then I saw a girl go into that house next door. I knew she was the detective because I recognized her from when I was in the library. That is one weird solid girl!" "Claire's not weird," Little John said. "She's nice." Finn snorted. "Any solid who can see ghosts when they're not glowing is weird!" He took his shoe from Kaz and plopped it on his right foot. There was no shoe on his left foot.

“是的。是。是的!”芬恩说。 “为什么?”Kaz问道。“你为什么不让我们知道你在这里？” 你一定知道我们在这里。 我们已经在这里呆了好几个小时了！”“我想看看你能不能弄明白，”芬恩耸耸肩说。 “我还以为你现在是个大侦探呢。” 卡兹眯起眼睛。“你怎么知道我是个侦探？”他问。 芬恩说：“几个月前，我听伊莱说起一个能发现并捕捉鬼魂的女侦探。 “然后我看到一个女孩走进了隔壁的房子。 我知道她是侦探，因为我在图书馆的时候见过她。 真是个奇怪的女孩！”“克莱尔不奇怪，”小约翰说。 “她很好。”芬恩哼了一声。 “任何能看到不发光的鬼魂的实体都是奇怪的！”他从卡兹手里接过鞋子，扑通一声穿在右脚上。 他的左脚上没有穿鞋。

"Anyway," Finn went on. "I saw you floating outside the house next door a couple of months ago. That girl, Claire, was chasing you and calling your name. I figured you were working together. I've been trying to get Eli to call your detective agency forever! I had to glow a lot before he finally believed I was a ghost and not his imagination." "Why did you only glow around him and around people who want to buy this house?" Kaz asked. "Why didn't you let the rest of his family see you, too?" "I thought that if he was the only one in the family who saw me, and he was getting blamed for things I was doing, then maybe he'd finally call you guys," Finn explained. "But he never did. Not until he saw that girl walk by his house the other day." "Hey, I think I saw you float across the window," Kaz said, remembering the ghostly whatever-it-was he saw for just a second. "Cosmo

“不管怎样，”芬恩继续说。“几个月前我看见你漂在隔壁房子外面。 那个叫克莱尔的女孩在追你，喊你的名字。 我以为你们是一伙的。 我一直想让伊莱给你们侦探事务所打电话！在他最终相信我是鬼魂而不是他的想象之前，我不得不发光很多次。” “你为什么只在他和那些想买这栋房子的人身边发光？”Kaz问道。 “你为什么不让他的家人也见见你呢？”芬恩解释说：“我想，如果他是家里唯一一个看到我的人，他会因为我做的事情而受到指责，那么也许他最终会给你们打电话。” 但他从来没有。直到有一天他看到那个女孩经过他家。” “嘿，我想我看见你漂过窗户了。”卡兹说，想起了他刚才看到的那个鬼东西。 “都市性

probably saw you, too. I bet that's why he was going crazy. Did you see us inside Claire's water bottle?" "Her water bottle?" Finn said. "What were you doing in there? And why are you guys hanging out with a solid girl, anyway? Why aren't you at the old schoolhouse?" There was no quick answer to that. Kaz took a deep breath. "We better start at the beginning," he said. He and Little John told Finn what all had happened since he had passed through the wall and blown away from the old schoolhouse. They told him about the old schoolhouse getting torn down— "Wait. What?" Finn cried. "The old schoolhouse isn't there anymore?" Kaz and Little John shook their heads. Then they told Finn about how the rest of the family had gotten separated, too. Little John told about the ghosts he met in the purple house. Kaz told about meeting Claire, and how they'd formed C & K

可能也看到你了。我打赌这就是他发疯的原因。 你看到我们在克莱尔的水瓶里了吗？”“她的水瓶？”芬恩说。 “你在里面干什么？” 你们为什么要和一个可靠的女孩在一起？ 你为什么不在老校舍里？”这个问题没有很快的答案。 卡兹深吸了一口气。“我们最好从头开始，”他说。 他和小约翰告诉芬恩，自从他穿过墙壁，被风吹离旧校舍以来，发生了什么事。 他们告诉他旧校舍被拆除的事——“等等。 什么?”芬恩哭了。“老校舍不在那儿了？”卡兹和小约翰摇了摇头。 然后他们告诉芬恩家里的其他人是如何被拆散的。 小约翰讲述了他在紫色房子里遇到的鬼魂。 卡兹讲述了她与克莱尔的相遇，以及他们是如何组建c&k的

Ghost Detectives, and how none of their cases had led to real ghosts. But still, somehow, they'd managed to find Cosmo, Little John, Grandmom and Grandpop, Mom and Pops, and now him. "Wow. That's amazing," Finn said. "So, where have you been all this time?" Little John asked Finn. "Well," Finn began. "First I rode the wind with Grandmom and Grandpop. They stayed together because they were holding hands, but I got separated from them when the wind blew me into a house.

《幽灵侦探》，以及他们的案子都没能引出真正的鬼魂。 但不管怎么说，他们还是找到了科斯莫、小约翰、爷爷奶奶、爸爸妈妈，现在又找到了他。 “哇。这太神奇了，”芬恩说。 “那么，这段时间你都去哪儿了？”小约翰问芬恩。 “嗯，”芬恩开始说。“首先，我和爷爷奶奶一起乘顺风车。 他们一直在一起，因为他们手牵着手，但当风把我吹进一所房子时，我和他们分开了。
