60 The Big Reveal

60 The Big Reveal Leo was holding something small and yellow in his hand. "What's that?" asked Peanut. "I noticed it in your pocket at the National Portrait Gallery too." He looked at her, a worried expression suddenly appearing on his face. She noticed his eyes kept darting down to her bandolier. "It's OK. You can tell me," she said. He lifted his hand to show her a Post-it note with a bold, geometric shape drawn on it, just like the others stuck to the wardrobe door. Peanut gasped. "So it was you?" said Little-Bit.

60 大揭秘 里奥手里攥着一个小小的黄色东西。 "那是什么呀？" 皮纳特问道。 "我在国家肖像馆的时候就看到你口袋里有它了。" 他看着她，脸上突然露出了担忧的神情。 她注意到他的眼睛一个劲儿瞟向她的子弹带。 "没事的。 你可以告诉我的，" 她说。 他抬起手，露出一张便利贴，上面画着一个醒目的几何图形，和衣柜门上贴的那些一模一样。 皮纳特倒吸一口凉气。 "原来都是你干的？" 利特比特说。

Leo paused, and then nodded slowly. "Wait," said Rockwell. "You're the one who has been putting the Post-it notes in her lunchbox every day?" "Yes," replied the boy. He exhaled and looked at his sister. And that's not all. You're not the only one with a few things to explain." He stood up and walked to the window. "Peanut, Little-Bit," he continued. "I have something I need to tell you both. A secret that I've been keeping for a long time. But before I tell you, you have to promise that you won't be cross with me for not saying something sooner. I hope you'll see that I didn't have a choice. The girls spoke in unison. "We promise." "OK," he said. "I think you'd better sit down."

里奥顿了顿，接着慢慢点了点头。 "等一下，" 罗克威尔说。 "那些便利贴，每天都是你放在她午餐盒里的吗？" "是的，" 男孩回答道。 他呼了口气，看向自己的姐姐。 而且还不止这些。 要解释的事儿，可不只有你一个人有。" 他站起身，走到窗边。 "皮纳特，利特比特，" 他接着说道。 "我有件事要告诉你们俩。 一个我藏了好久的秘密。 不过我告诉你们之前，你们得保证不会因为我没早点说而生我的气。 我希望你们能理解，我当时别无选择。 两个女孩异口同声地说。 "我们保证。" "好吧，" 他说。 "我想你们最好还是坐下来听。"
