Seru smiled， but her eyes were not happy。 ‘Gog talked to me this morning，’ she said。

塞魯笑了，可她的目光中卻沒有喜悅的神情。“高格今天早晨跟我談過了。”她說。

Her brother came in with the coffee and sandwiches and Seru began to eat。

她哥哥拿著開封和三明治走了進來，塞魯邊吃邊說：

‘Gog wants to know about Zadak， and about you，’ she said。

“高格想知道關於扎達克的情況，他也想知道關於你們的情況。”她說。

‘He’ going to kill us all， I think， before he goes to Mars。’

“我想，他要把我們大家都殺掉，然後再去火星。”

Suddenly， Rilla felt ill。 ‘I can’t eat now！’ she cried。 But she took some coffee and began to drink。

突然，瑞拉感到很難受。“我現在吃不下去！”她喊著，一邊倒了杯咖啡喝起來。

‘Let’s get out of here，’ she said。 ‘Perhaps we can get a plane to Brazil and go to my family。’

“咱們出去吧，”她說，“也許我們能搭上去巴西的飛機回我家去。”

‘Difficult，’ seru said。 ‘Last night fires began in the new forest in Europe， and they’re moving across Europe。

“很困難，”塞魯說，“昨天夜裡歐洲的新森林起了火，火勢正向整個歐洲蔓延。

The fires in Africa are burning fast。 Gog began to destroy Zadak’s forest in Australia yesterday。’

非洲的大火越燒越猛，昨天高格開始摧毀扎達克在澳大利亞的森林。”

‘Did you phone Adai？’ Kiah asked。

“你給阿岱打電話了嗎？”凱問。

‘Adia！ You never stop talking about Adai。 What can he do？’ Rilla said。 She left angry。

“阿岱！你怎麼老是說起他，他能幹什麼呢？”瑞拉非常生氣。

Sere looked at Rilla for a minute。 ‘Yes， I phone Adai before I came here。 I told him about Zadak and Bel， and about the fires。

塞魯注視了一陣瑞拉：“是的，我來之前給阿岱打過電話。我告訴了他扎達克喝貝尓的事，還有火災。

He asked about you， Kiah。 He can’t come about at Kisangani airport because Gog is there with a lot of his guards。

他還問到你，凱。他不能降落在基桑加尼機場，因為高格在那兒，他還佈置了許多士兵。

Ship MARS 4 is nearly ready and Gog is watching it。 He wants to leave Earth tomorrow。’

火星4號宇宙飛船已經基本準備就緒，高格正密切關注著它的進展。他想明天離開地球。”
