1-08 Mercy Watson to the Rescue

Chapter 8. Ma 'am? said Lorenzo to Baby. Did you call the fire department? Oh dear, said Baby. I did not. But Eugenia may have called. Who is Eugenia? asked Ned. My sister, said Baby. Is that her? asked Lorenzo. The one chasing the pig?

第八章。 “夫人？”洛伦佐对着贝贝说。 你打给消防队了吗？ “哎呀，”贝贝说，“我没打。不过尤金妮娅可能打了。” “尤金妮娅是谁？”内德问。 “我姐姐。”贝贝说。 “那是她吗？”洛伦佐问。 就是在追猪的那个？

Yes, said Baby, that's her. Baby and Ned and Lorenzo watched Eugenia chasing Mercy through the yard. Lorenzo cleared his throat. What was the emergency exactly? Asked Ned. I thought I saw a monster at my bedroom window, said Baby. But it was not a monster, it was Mercy. Mercy? Said Lorenzo. The pig, said Baby, the pig who lives next door.

“对，”贝贝说，“就是她。” 贝贝、内德和洛伦佐看着尤金妮娅追着默西跑过院子。 洛伦佐清了清嗓子。 到底是什么紧急情况呀？ 内德问道。 “我刚才以为看见卧室窗户那儿有个怪物。”贝贝说。 不过那不是怪物，是默西。 默西？ 洛伦佐问道。 “就是那只猪呀，”贝贝说，“住在隔壁的那只猪。”

I see, said Ned. Eugenia does not care for mercy, said Baby. In her opinion, pigs belong on farms. There's something to be said for that opinion, said Lorenzo. Ned nodded.

“我知道了。”内德说。 “尤金妮娅不喜欢默西。”贝贝说。 在她看来，猪就该待在农场里。 “这个看法也不是没道理。”洛伦佐说。 内德点了点头。

Help !" shouted a faraway voice. Help! Help! Help us! Did you hear that? asked Ned. Somebody is in trouble! said Lorenzo. Let's go!

“救命！”远处传来一个大喊的声音。 救命！救命！救救我们！ “你们听见了吗？”内德问。 “有人遇到麻烦了！”洛伦佐说。 我们快走！
