第五章

 

Okay, now I know something's up, Spider-Man thought.

蜘蛛侠想：“好吧，现在我知道有事情发生了。”

 

He didn't know Daredevil all that well. Sure, he knew enough to say that he was one of the good guys. But he couldn't say he was totally, 100 percent, absolutely sure he'd never go over to the other side and become a Super Villain. But Spider-Man had fought beside Nova a bunch of times, and the two heroes had become pretty good friends.

他和超胆侠没那么熟。当然，他至少相信超胆侠是个好人。虽然不能说他完全，百分之百，绝对肯定他永远不会走到另一边，成为一个超级恶棍。但是蜘蛛侠与新星诺瓦并肩战斗了许多次，他俩已经是很好的朋友了。

 

“Hey, Nova!” Spider-Man shouted as he swung by. “Not sure what's going on here, but I'm sure it's all a great big misunderstanding...”

“嘿,新星！”蜘蛛侠转身经过时喊道，“我不知道这是怎么回事，但我肯定这是一个很大的误会……”

 

“Spider-Man!” Nova said. He even sounded like a villain.

“蜘蛛侠吗！”新星说。他甚至一开口听起来就像个恶棍。

 

“Yeah, it's me, Spider-Man, your fellow Super Hero, buddy.”

“是啊，是我，蜘蛛侠，你的超级英雄伙伴，伙计。”

 

Nova lifted his hand and shot a blast at Spider-Man.

新星举起手，就朝蜘蛛侠发射了一道冲击波。

 

“Um, are you mad at me or something? If it has to do with that five bucks I didn't lend you for a sports drink a few weeks ago, I swear, I really didn't have it on me... Yikes!” Spider-Man jumped out of the way as Nova sent another blast in his direction.

“嗯，你生我的气还是怎么了？如果是因为几周前我没借给你五块钱买运动饮料的话，我发誓，我当时真的没带钱……呵！”新星又向蜘蛛侠的方向发起了一波攻击，蜘蛛侠跳着躲开了。

 

Meanwhile, Spider-Man's spider-sense was tingling like crazy. He looked down and saw that the police were trained on him as well. It looked like the entire police force was gathered below. There were sirens blaring and lights flashing all over.

与此同时，蜘蛛侠的蜘蛛感应也在疯狂地波动着。他低头一看，发现警察也在追他。看起来所有的警察都聚集在下面了。到处都是震耳欲聋的警笛声，和闪烁的警灯。

 

“Spider-Man and Nova, this is captain Stacy of the New York City Police Department. Surrender yourselves and you will not be hurt!” Captain Stacy announced.

“蜘蛛侠和新星，我是纽约市警察局的斯泰西队长。你们主动投降吧，我们保证不伤害你们！”警察局的斯泰西队长喊道。

 

“Surrender? ” Spider-Man said.

“投降？”蜘蛛侠不解道。

 

“I figured you, or some other costumed creep, would try to stop me,” said Nova. “So I already warned the cops. I told them to expect other Super Heroes to arrive.”

新星说:“我原以为是你，或者其他穿着奇装异服的家伙想阻止我。所以我已经警告过警察了。我告诉他们只能指望其他超级英雄过来啦。”

 

“They think we're working together?” Spider-Man asked, shocked.

“他们认为我们是一伙的吗？”蜘蛛侠问道,感到很震惊。

 

Nova smiled. “Yep, exactly as I set it up. Worked like a charm. So, what do you say, Spidey? They already think you're a criminal. Why not reap the benefits and work with me here?” Nova asked.

新星笑了：“是的，就像我设想的那样。确实有效。你说呢，蜘蛛侠？他们已经认为你是罪犯了。为什么不捞点好处，和我一起干呢？”新星问道。

 

“Have you lost your mind? Oh, sorry, obvious question,” Spider-Man replied. “You clearly have.”

“你疯了吗？哦，对不起，这很明显。”蜘蛛侠回答，“你一定疯了。”

 

“Come on, Spidey, if you can't beat me, then join me,” Nova replied.

“得啦，蜘蛛侠，如果你打败不了我，那就加入我。”新星回答。

 

“No way, no how, pal. I have no idea what's gotten into you, or Daredevil, but I'm going to figure it out,” Spider-Man said.

“不可能，绝对不可能，伙计。我真不知道你是怎么了，同样也不知道超胆侠是怎么了，但我一定会搞清楚的。”蜘蛛侠说道。

 

“Spider-Man and Nova, we are giving you another sixty seconds to surrender. We're prepared to act if you won't come peacefully,” Captain Stacy announced.

“蜘蛛侠和新星，我们再给你们60秒时间考虑是否投降。如果你们再不投降，我们准备采取行动了。”警察局的斯泰西队长再次喊道。

 

“They're going to get you one way or another,” Nova said. “If you try to run, they'll think you're in this with me anyway. Or you can help me and actually get something out of it.”

“他们无论如何都会想尽办法来对付你。”新星说，“如果你试图逃跑，他们会认为你和我是一伙的。或者，如果你肯帮助我，我们可以从中获利。”

 

“What do you want here, anyway?” Spider-Man asked.

“你到底想在这儿干什么？””蜘蛛侠问道。

 

“Thirty Seconds.” Captain Stacy shouted.

“还剩三十秒钟。”斯泰西队长继续喊道。

 

“Will you help me?” Nova said.

“你愿意帮我吗？”新星问道。

 

“It depends,” Spider-Man replied. “What do I have to do?”

“看情况吧。”蜘蛛侠答道，“我到底该怎么办？”

 

Nova smiled. “The building has been evacuated. Through the third-floor window on the northeast corner, you'll see a notebook computer. It will help us hack into any financial system in the world. We can divert funds. Grab it and I'll split whatever I snag with you.”

新星笑了：“大楼已经被疏散了。透过东北角三楼的窗户，你会看到一台笔记本电脑。它将帮助我们黑进世界上任何一个金融系统。我们可以转移资金。搞到它，我就和你平分我弄到的任何东西。”

 

“So that's what you're up to!” Spider-Man said, proud of himself for tricking Nova into telling him. “Thanks for the tip!”

“这就是你要干的好事！”蜘蛛侠说，他为自己套出了新星的真实意图而感到骄傲，“谢谢你的好意！”

 

“Fifteen seconds!”

“还剩十五秒！”

 

Spider-Man swooped around behind Nova and fired his webs at him, turning him into a Super Hero cocoon! Nova was fastened tightly to the roof, and Spider-Man was getting ready to move in for questioning when he heard Captain Stacy yell from below: “Time's up!!!”

蜘蛛侠绕到新星后面猛扑过去，向他投掷蜘蛛网，把新星变成了一个超级英雄茧！新星被紧紧地绑在屋顶上，蜘蛛侠正准备进去审问，这时，他听到斯泰西队长从下面喊道:“时间到！！！”

 

Before Spider-Man could do anything else, rockets filled with some sort of gas started to streak around him. He began to cough but was able to dodge the pellets with his super skills. He weaved his way around their paths and swooped into the third-floor window Nova had mentioned. He webbed the notebook and grabbed it, shoving it under his arm, and swung back outside.

蜘蛛侠还没来得及做任何事情，装满某种气体的火箭弹就开始在他周围飞驰。他开始咳嗽，但凭借高超的技艺躲过了子弹。他迂回前进，最后飞进了新星刚刚提到的三楼窗户里。他先用蛛网兜住笔记本电脑，然后抓起它，塞到胳膊下，接着转身荡了出去。

 

The cops were still firing their gas, so Spider-Man took a deep breath and swung down over their heads, avoiding it. He dropped the notebook to Captain Stacy.

警察们还在发射气弹，所以蜘蛛侠深吸了一口气，从他们头顶上荡过，避开了子弹。彼得把电脑丢给了斯泰西队长。

 

“That's what he was looking for!” Spider-Man shouted down to them as they continued to try to stop him. “Keep it safe!”

“这就是新星要找的东西！”当他们试图继续阻击蜘蛛侠时，蜘蛛侠向他们大喊，“保护好电脑！”

 

Captain Stacy looked up at Spider-Man skeptically. Peter nodded as if to say “Honest, Captain!” Captain Stacy looked down at the laptop.

斯泰西队长抬头看着蜘蛛侠，充满了疑惑。彼得点点头，好像在说:“相信我，队长！”斯泰西队长低头看了看那台电脑。

 

Maybe Spider-Man is on our side, Captain Stacy thought.

“也许蜘蛛侠是站在我们这边的。”斯泰西队长心想。

 

Spider-Man saluted the cops, then shot a web at the flagpole on top of Federal Hall across the street and swung away. He took a quick look back at the stock exchange and saw Nova streak up into the sky and out of sight.

蜘蛛侠向警察打了个招呼，然后向街对面联邦大厅顶上的旗杆上发射了一张网，一转身又荡走了。他迅速地回头看了一眼股票交易所，发现新星飞向了天空，消失在视线之外。

 

He must have slipped away while the cops were focused on me! Peter said to himself. Zero for two—first Daredevil gets away, now Nova. You're not doing too well here, Spidey.

“他一定是趁警察盯着我的时候溜走了！”彼得自言自语道，“接连两个——首先是超胆侠溜了，现在新星又跑了。蜘蛛侠，你在这里干得真不咋样。”

 

Just when Peter thought he was clear, he heard police choppers overhead.

正当彼得以为他已经弄清楚时，他听到头顶上有警察的直升机轰鸣而来。

 

You have to hand it to those guys—they don't give up easily! he thought.

彼得想：“你得把它交给那些家伙——他们不会轻易放过你的！”

 

The copters swiveled and swerved to keep track of him. But like an acrobat he tumbled and darted all over the city streets. When he was sure he was out of the copters' views, he slipped into an alleyway. He couldn't walk back out in his costume. But he didn't have anything to change into.

直升机转来转去，一直在追踪他。但彼得却像杂技演员一样，在城市的街道上翻腾穿梭。在他确信自己已经离开了直升机的视线后，他溜进了一条小巷。他不能再穿着蜘蛛服走出去，可是彼得没有其他衣服可换。

 

Spidey frantically took off his mask and made his way out of the alley, walking proudly in a suit of webbed-together garbage bags and a newspaper fedora.

蜘蛛侠匆匆忙忙地脱下面具，昂首挺胸地走出了小巷，身上穿着一套用蛛网粘出来的垃圾袋套装，戴着一顶报纸做的软呢帽。

 

He started walking down the street, hardly noticing the sideways glances he was getting. After all, to a guy who spends a lot of time swinging around the city in a red-and-blue suit, walking around in garbage bags was no sweat at all.

他开始沿街走着，没有注意到自己正受到路边行人的目光。毕竟，对于一个整天穿着红蓝相间的蜘蛛侠制服在城市里晃荡的人来说，现在穿件用垃圾袋做的衣服在街上四处走走一点都不费劲。

 

Two businessmen walked by and gave Peter a strange look. Peter tipped his hat to them and walked on. But he could still hear their conversation.

两个商人从彼得身边走过，用一种奇怪的眼神看着他。彼得向他们脱帽致意，继续往前走。但他仍然能听到他们的谈话。

 

“Man, people are getting weirder and weirder in this city. Did you hear what's going on down at the stock exchange?” one of the businessmen asked his friend.

“伙计，这个城市的人越来越古怪了。你听说证券交易所发生了什么事了吗？”其中一个商人问他的朋友。

 

“Yeah, and now they're saying Spider-Man's involved, too,” the other replied. “I never trusted those guys anyway. You ask me, they're too dangerous to be out there.”

“是啊，现在他们说蜘蛛侠也牵涉其中了。”另一个回答，“我从来都不相信这些家伙。依我看，他们实在太危险了。”

 

Peter shook his head. Two heroes—Nova and Daredevil—had gone bad, Spider-Man looked like a villain, a bully was bothering him at school, and the girl he was crushing on might be interested in him! Not to mention that he now had to ride the subway home wearing garbage bags and newspapers. How could things get any crazier?

彼得摇了摇头。两个英雄——新星和超胆侠——都变坏了。蜘蛛侠看起来也像个恶棍，竟然在学校被恶霸一直骚扰着，自己迷恋的女孩可能也对他有意！更不用说，他现在还不得不穿着一身垃圾袋、头顶着报纸乘地铁回家。事情怎么会变得如此疯狂？

 

And then Peter remembered: he had a science test coming up at the end of the week.

然后彼得突然想起来自己在本周末还有一门科学测试。
