Chapter 6

Chapter 6 "Where do we need to go first?" Mom asked. Millie thought hard. "We need to go to the park!" she cried. "That was the last place we were before we got to the town hall!" "Good memory, Millie," Mom said.

第六章 “我们得先去哪儿呀？” 妈妈问道。 米莉使劲儿想了想。 “我们得去公园！” 她大声说道。 那是我们到市政厅之前去过的最后一个地方！” “记性真好呀，米莉。”妈妈说。

Millie pushed Mom ahead of her, giving Dolly, Pod, and Fifi a chance to climb into her bag and out of sight. "Let's go!" the bunnies urged Millie. But she needed no encouragement at all. She had to find Trixie.

米莉把妈妈推到前面，好让多莉、波德和菲菲有机会钻进她的包里躲起来不被看见。 “我们走吧！” 小兔子们催着米莉。 可她根本不需要别人催促。 她必须找到特里克茜。

In the hallway, Millie ran fast, pulling hard on Mom's hand and dragging her out the front doors toward the park. "Slow down, Millie," Mom said. "We might miss something." Millie stopped and looked around her feet. "We have to retrace our steps just like in the dance routine, remember?" Mom explained. "Let's look carefully along the route we took." Millie glanced up and down the pavement. She thought back to her and Samira skipping along earlier that day. She didn't recognize the trash can or the blue mailbox. Of course! They hadn't gone that way at all! That's why it looked unfamiliar. They had crossed the street in front of the town hall.

在走廊里，米莉跑得飞快，紧紧拽着妈妈的手，把她拖出前门往公园的方向去。 “慢点儿跑，米莉。”妈妈说。 “我们说不定会错过什么东西的。” 米莉停下来，低头看了看自己脚边。 “我们得顺着之前的脚印往回找，就像舞蹈动作里那样，还记得吗？” 妈妈解释道。 “我们沿着之前走的路线好好找找。” 米莉沿着人行道来回扫了几眼。 她回想起当天早些时候自己和萨米拉蹦蹦跳跳走路的样子。 她不认得这个垃圾桶，也不认得那个蓝色的邮筒。 对啦！ 她们根本就没走这条路！ 难怪这条路看着眼生。 她们当时是在市政厅前面过的马路。

"We need to go back across the street," she exclaimed. "That's right, Millie," Mom said. Millie crossed the street with Mom, keeping an eye on traffic, while Mom also looked around their feet for the lost hair clip.

“我们得回到马路对面去。”她大声说。 “没错，米莉。”妈妈说。 米莉和妈妈一起过了马路，留意着来往车辆，妈妈也一边低头看着脚边，找那枚弄丢的发夹。

Once they were safely across, Millie and Mom followed their steps back toward the park. Mom combed the pavement for the lucky hair clip, and Millie searched for little Trixie. They followed their steps back toward where Millie and Samira had practiced their dance. They followed their steps back to the swings and then to the slide where Millie had run up and down the wrong way. They followed their steps back toward

安全过马路之后，米莉和妈妈就顺着之前的脚步往公园的方向走回去。 妈妈仔细查看着人行道，找那枚幸运发夹，米莉则在找小小的特里克茜。 她们顺着脚步往回走，走到米莉和萨米拉之前练舞蹈的地方。 她们顺着脚步往回走，走到秋千那里，接着又走到滑梯那里，之前米莉还跑上跑下走错了方向。 她们顺着脚步往回走，走到

the entrance of the park by the café. But there was no sign of Trixie anywhere. "Not here," Millie said to Mom, her voice small and quivering. "Don't worry," Mom reassured her. "Let's just keep following our steps back." Millie nodded, and they went to the café. Millie remembered exactly where she and the bunnies had had their hot chocolates. She was about to rush over when she remembered she needed to follow her steps back in the right order. So she carefully passed the paintings she had seen that morning and then checked under the tables

咖啡馆旁边的公园入口。 可哪儿都没有特里克茜的影子。 “不在这儿。”米莉对妈妈说，声音小小的，还发着抖。 “别担心。”妈妈安慰她。 “我们接着顺着之前的脚步往回找就好。” 米莉点了点头，然后她们就去了咖啡馆。 米莉清清楚楚地记得她和小兔子们之前是在哪儿喝的热巧克力。 她刚要冲过去，突然想起自己得按正确的顺序顺着脚步往回找。 于是她小心翼翼地走过那天早上看到的那些画，然后检查了桌子底下
