5-07 Mercy Watson Thinks Like a Pig

Chapter 7. The phone rang at the Animal Control Center. Animal Control Officer Francine Poulet answered, Help you? said Francine Poulet. Yes, said the voice on the other end of the line. I am calling to report an animal desperately in need of control.

第七章。 动物管制中心的电话响了。 动物管制官弗朗辛·普莱接起电话， 请问有什么事？ 弗朗辛·普莱说道。 您好，电话那头的声音说道。 我打电话来是要举报一只急需 被管制的动物。

Got yourself a rabid dog? said Francine. Well, no! said the voice on the other end. Stray cat? Certainly not! said the voice.

是有疯狗闹事吗？弗朗辛问。 啊，不是的！电话那头的声音说道。 流浪猫？ 当然不是！那个声音说道。

Raccoon in your trash? No! Squirrel in your chimney? I think not. Snake in your toilet? I beg your pardon.

浣熊翻你家垃圾桶了？ 不是！ 松鼠钻你家烟囱了？ 不是的。 你家马桶里钻蛇了？您可别开玩笑。

Let me think said Francine Poulet. It's not a dog or a cat. It's not a raccoon or a squirrel. And it's definitely not a snake. What could it be? Wait a minute said Francine. You're not dealing with a skunk, are you?

让我想想啊，弗朗辛·普莱说道。 既不是狗也不是猫。 既不是浣熊也不是松鼠。 而且肯定也不是蛇。 那会是什么呢？ 等等，弗朗辛说道。 你该不会是碰到臭鼬了吧？

What I am dealing with is a pig. A pig? A pig. Give me the address, said Francine Poulet. 54 Dekawoo Drive, said the voice.

我碰到的是一头猪。 一头猪？ 没错，是猪。 把地址给我，弗朗辛·普莱说道。 德卡坞大道54号，那个声音回答道。
