Chapter 13

CHAPTER 13 IT DID NOT TAKE LONG for Igor Junior and the Junior Monster Scouts to clean up the laboratory. Things go much quicker when everyone lends a hand. Soon the laboratory was just as Doctor Frankenstein and Igor Senior had left it. "Okay," said Wolf Man, "it looks like you monsters earned your trip to the birthday celebration."

没过多久，小伊戈尔和小怪兽童子军就把实验室打扫干净了。 当每个人都伸出援助之手时，事情会进展得快得多。 很快，实验室又恢复了弗兰肯斯坦博士和老伊戈尔离开时的样子。 “好吧，”狼人说，“看来你们这些怪物是值得去参加生日庆祝会的。”

"And the first ever Monster Mash competition," said Frankenstein. He winked at Franky. "And that cheesy popcorn," said Igor Senior. Boris and the rats cheered. "But be back before sunrise!" said Dracula. He looked at Vampyra. "You know what the sun does to your complexion." The Junior Monster Scouts, Igor Junior, and the swarm of rats did not waste any time leaving the castle and heading straight for the village. Peter the piper, their friend from the village, was the first to see them. "Hello, Junior Monster Scouts!" he said. "I was hoping you would come to the party. I made a very cool monster for the competition!" "Hi, Peter!" said Vampyra. "This is our friend Igor Junior. And you know the

弗兰肯斯坦说：“这是有史以来第一次怪物泥比赛。” 他对弗兰克眨了眨眼睛。“还有那个奶酪爆米花，”老伊戈尔说。 鲍里斯和老鼠们欢呼起来。 “但你得在日出前回来！”德古拉说。 他看着吸血鬼。“你知道太阳对你的肤色有什么影响。” 少年怪物侦察兵，小伊戈尔和那群老鼠没有浪费任何时间离开城堡，直奔村庄。 他们在村里的朋友吹笛手彼得是第一个看到他们的。 “你好，少年怪兽童子军！”他说。 “我希望你能来参加聚会。 我为比赛做了一个非常酷的怪物！”“你好，彼得！” “这是我们的朋友小伊戈尔。 你们知道

rats...." Peter did indeed know the rats. He had helped the Junior Monster Scouts lead them out of the village during their last adventure. "We're only here for some popcorn," said Boris. "Then it's back to the castle for us." "Come on," said Peter to the rats. "A big bucket of cheesy popcorn, coming right up. Nice to meet you, Igor Junior. You should check out the merry-go-round. It is a lot of fun!" Igor Junior and the Junior Monster Scouts took his advice. They went round and round and round and up and down and up and down. "I think I'm getting dizzy," said Wolfy.

老鼠……”彼得确实认识老鼠。 在上次的冒险中，他曾帮助少年怪物童子军带领他们走出村庄。 “我们只是来吃爆米花的。”鲍里斯说。 “那我们就回城堡去吧。” “来吧，”彼得对老鼠们说。 “一大桶芝士爆米花，马上就来。 很高兴见到你，小伊戈尔。 你应该去看看旋转木马。 这很有趣！”小伊戈尔和少年怪兽童子军采纳了他的建议。 他们转啊转啊转，上上下下，上上下下。 “我觉得我有点头晕，”狼说。

"Welcome to the party, Junior Monster Scouts!" said the mayor. "Do we have you to thank for turning on the lights? We almost had to cancel our party... and the very special, first ever Monster Mash competition!" "You are very welcome," Vampyra said. "It was Franky's idea." "Only because Igor Junior pulled the lever and created all that electricity," said Franky.

“欢迎来到这个派对，少年怪兽童子军！”市长说。 “我们开灯要谢谢你吗？” 我们几乎不得不取消我们的聚会…… 以及非常特别的，有史以来第一次的怪物泥大赛！”“不客气。”万皮拉说。 “这是弗兰克的主意。”“那是因为小伊戈尔拉动了杠杆，产生了所有的电，”弗兰基说。

"Out-of-control electricity," muttered Igor Junior. "Is that what that was?" asked the mayor. "We thought it was fireworks." The mayor and the Junior Monster Scouts laughed. "Let's not forget the rats," Wolfy said. "They helped too!" "Of course!" said the mayor. "How about joining us in one big round of 'Happy Birthday'?" The villagers gathered around. The band marched in with their drums and horns and clanging cymbals. The mayor raised his bullhorn to his lips, and everyone—including the Junior Monster Scouts, Igor Junior, and Boris and the rats—sang.

“电力失控了。”小伊戈尔喃喃地说。 “是这样吗？”市长问。 “我们以为是烟花。” 市长和少年怪兽童子军都笑了。 “别忘了老鼠，”狼说。 “他们也帮忙了！”“当然！”市长说。 “和我们一起来一轮‘生日快乐’怎么样？”村民们围了过来。 乐队敲着鼓，吹着喇叭，敲着铙钹，进行曲。 市长把扩音器举到嘴边，每个人——包括少年怪兽童子军、小伊戈尔、鲍里斯和老鼠们——都唱起了歌。
