5. A Stunning Discovery

A STUNNING DISCOVERY 5 He spotted Lucy and Antonio on the swing set. Lucy was looking in an open book. "We've been doing research!" Lucy said as Sam ran over. Antonio tossed an apple to Sam. "Thought you might be hungry after missing lunch," he said.

惊人的发现他看见露西和安东尼奥在秋千架上。 露西正在翻看一本打开的书。 “我们一直在做研究！”当萨姆跑过来时，露西说。 安东尼奥把一个苹果扔给山姆。 “我想你错过午餐后可能会饿，”他说。

Sam smiled and took a chomp. Then he looked down at the book in Lucy's hands, Eerie: A Town History. He saw the Eerie family tree. At the bottom was a photo of a young boy. The boy's name was Jasper Eerie.

萨姆笑了笑，咬了一口。 然后他低头看了看露西手里的那本书，《怪诞：小镇历史》。 他看到了可怕的家谱。 底部是一张小男孩的照片。 男孩的名字叫贾斯帕·怪诞。

"That's our substitute!" Lucy said, poking the page. "He just looks younger because this book is so old." Sam studied the page. "Unbelievable. This means our substitute is Orson Eerie's great- great-grandson."

“那是我们的代课老师！”露茜戳着那一页说。 “他看起来更年轻，因为这本书太旧了。” 萨姆仔细看了看那一页。“难以置信。 这意味着我们的替代者是奥森·怪诞的曾曾孙。”

Antonio crossed his arms. "I'm not buying it. I still think he's Zombie Orson." "He's not Zombie Orson!" Lucy said. "And why does it seem like you want a Zombie Orson?" Antonio shrugged. "Zombies are cool." "Guys, listen," Sam said. "I have to tell you what just happened!" Antonio and Lucy moved closer to Sam. "I followed Mr. Eerie —Jasper— to the music room," Sam said. "And he got attacked by the school!"

安东尼奥交叉双臂。“我才不信呢。 我仍然认为他是僵尸奥森。” “他不是僵尸奥森！”露西说。 “为什么你看起来想要一个僵尸奥森？”安东尼奥耸耸肩。 “僵尸很酷。”“伙计们，听着，”萨姆说。 “我得告诉你刚才发生了什么！”安东尼奥和露西走近萨姆。 “我跟着怪诞先生——贾斯帕——去了音乐室，”萨姆说。 “他被学校袭击了！”

"If the school attacked him, that means he's not bad, right?" Lucy asked. "He's definitely bad," Antonio replied. "His last name is Eerie!" "I'm not sure if he's good or bad," Sam said. "Maybe Orson was battling Jasper like he battles us— to take him down. But... remember Orson Eerie's science book? It said Orson wanted to come back to life for real. Maybe Jasper's helping Orson, but Orson just got mad at him for some reason." "The only way to find out," Lucy said, "is to learn more about Jasper." Sam narrowed his eyes. He leaned close and said, "After school, we'll follow Jasper Eerie. We'll see where he goes. And we'll find out what he's up to."

“如果是学校袭击了他，那就说明他不坏，对吧？”露西问。 “他绝对是坏人，”安东尼奥回答。 “他姓怪诞！”“我不确定他是好是坏，”萨姆说。 “也许奥森在和贾斯珀战斗，就像他在和我们战斗一样——要把他打倒。 但是…还记得奥森·怪诞的科学书吗？ 上面说奥森想真实地回到生活中来。 也许贾斯帕是在帮奥森，但奥森不知道为什么生他的气。” “唯一的办法，”露茜说，“就是多了解贾斯帕。” 萨姆眯起眼睛。他凑过来说：“放学后，我们跟着贾斯帕·怪异。 我们看看他会去哪里。我们会弄清楚他在做什么。”
