2 A Bit Stumped

Hamster Holmes opened the window in his den. "It is a beautiful morning to solve a mystery," he said. Dr. Watt agreed.

仓鼠福尔摩斯推开了他小窝的窗户。 “今天早上天气真好，正适合破解谜案。”他说。 瓦特博士点了点头表示同意。

Dr. Watt was a firefly. He blinked his light on and off to talk. A long flash of light was a dash. A short flash of light was a dot.

瓦特博士是一只萤火虫。 他靠一闪一闪地亮灯来交流。 灯光亮得久就是摩斯密码里的长划。 灯光闪得短就是摩斯密码里的点。

All of a sudden, they heard a strange ringing sound. Hamster Holmes jumped. "What is that?" he asked Dr. Watt. Dr. Watt flashed a message.

忽然，他们听到一阵奇怪的叮铃声。 仓鼠福尔摩斯吓了一跳。 “那是什么声音？” 他问瓦特博士。 瓦特博士闪灯给出了回复。

"Of course, Dr. Watt. It is the phone!" Hamster Holmes said, and he picked it up. They did not get many phone calls.

“对哦，瓦特博士。 是电话响了！” 仓鼠福尔摩斯说着，接起了电话。 他们平时很少接到电话的。

"Good morning," said the caller. "My name is Rufus Feathers. I need help with a mystery!" "You have called the right place," said Hamster Holmes.

“早上好呀。”打电话的人说。 “我叫鲁弗斯·费瑟斯。 我遇上了一桩怪事，需要你们帮忙！” “你可找对地方啦。”仓鼠福尔摩斯说。
