My name is Archibald… Archibald Suchot.
我是个工程师 我在非洲待了十几年
I’m an engineer and I spent more than 10 years
增设了许多便民的建设
in Africa building every type of useful things.
非洲就是这整篇故事的核心…
By the way, it’s in the heart of Africa that our story begins…
喔，这不是非洲 这是我十年后在康乃迪克州的房♥子
Well, this is not Africa, this is Connecticut
我在失踪前也曾经住在这里
and this is the house I lived in before I mysteriously disappeared.
但另外的故事 就让我的孙子亲自来告诉你吧
But that’s another story that my grandson would be more qualified to tell you.
这个可爱又迷人的孩子 -他的名字就叫作… -亚瑟！
You will see he is a lovely charming kid who answer to the name of…
Arthur!!
亚瑟的奇幻王国：毫发人的冒险
他又上哪儿去了
Where’s he gone to this time?!
怎么连狗也不见了…
And the dog’s disappeared too!!!
阿福？
Alfred!!?
好啊，你看看
“Oh yes, you’ll see,” “he’ll be a great guard dog!”
好一只看家名犬！阿福
Alfred!!!
不知道这只狗到底是怎么看家的
I wonder what exactly it is he’ll be guarding!
你们起码也出个声音吧
Oh…
If you could at least answer when I call!

-我刚在非洲 -我知道！
I can tell! Did you have a good trip?
旅途还愉快吗？
Fantastic! I was in a tribe with Grandpa!
棒呆了！
我跟外公在部落里，你看！
Look! Grandpa painted a canvas that he placed in a circle
外公画了张画布围绕在我们的身边
动物们只能看着我们打转
that way the animals pace round and round it, but can’t find us.
却找不到我们
It’s like we’re invisible.
我们就像隐形人
Invisible, but not unsmellable!
是看不到，但可不是闻不到
今天早上洗澡没呀？
Did you have your bath this morning?
才刚要去洗就发现这本书了
– I was on my way when I found this book! – Hmm,
真是太精彩了
It’s incredible!
这些全都是外公
It’s all the inventions Grandpa made for the isolated tribes.
为荒野部落做的发明耶
Yes. He was more interested in African tribes than he was his own!
是啊
你外公对非洲部落 的热情比我们还多
你看！他挖了一口很深的井
Look!
而且还利用竹子 做了一套灌溉系统喔
He dug a super deep well
and invented a whole irrigation system out of bamboo poles.
可是，这并不是你外公发明的
You know, it wasn’t Grandpa who invented that, it was the Romans.
是罗马人搞的
他们叫它做输水渠道
They called them viaducts.
罗马人？
The Romans?
我怎么没有听过这一族
I never heard of that tribe!
那是一个很老的民族
Oh, it’s a very old tribe, the leader was called Caesar.
领袖叫做凯撒
