那么让我告诉你一个故事,你会改变主意的,这
00:50
it all happened when I was a child I used to  play with my brothers and sister in the park  
5
50700
6300
一切都发生在我小时候,我曾经和我的兄弟们一起玩和妹妹在公园里
00:57
well it was not a park it was more like a cliff  
6
57660
4200
,那不是一个公园,更像是一个悬崖,
01:02
we used to go there because it was full of  sand we could play different things there
7
62580
5940
我们过去常常去那里,因为那里到处都是沙子,我们可以在那里玩不同的东西,
01:12
we also played with our neighbors there were a lot  of children in the neighborhood we used to live  
8
72120
7140
我们也和邻居一起玩,附近有很多孩子,我们不管怎样,
01:19
anyway we used to go to that Cliff every afternoon  
9
79800
4440
我们以前每天下午都会去那个悬崖,
01:25
we went there at three or  four in the afternoon until
10
85140
5760
我们下午三四点去那里,直到
01:33
five or six in the afternoon it was a regular day  I remember that day clearly my dad had arrived  
11
93480
9120
下午五六点,那是正常的一天,我清楚地记得那天,我爸爸
01:42
from work with my brother he used to take  him to work because he is the oldest brother  
12
102600
6780
和我的兄弟下班回来了。过去常常带他去上班,因为他是最大的兄弟,
01:50
they used to arrive at 2 pm when my dad  arrived we my siblings and I asked him if  
13
110220
9600
他们常常在下午 2 点到达,当我爸爸到达时,我们是我的兄弟姐妹,我问他
01:59
we could go to play to the cliff as usual he said  we could go but first we had to wash the dishes  
14
119820
8340
我们是否可以像往常一样去悬崖玩,他说我们可以去,但首先我们有洗碗
02:08
we didn't like washing the dishes  of course but we have to do it
15
128700
4500
我们当然不喜欢洗碗,但
02:15
after washing the dishes we were allowed to go to  play so I called my friends my neighbors in this  
16
135660
8580
洗完碗后我们必须这样做,我们被允许去玩,所以在这种
02:24
case and we went to our favorite place to play  we were like seven or nine children more or less
17
144240
10080
情况下我把我的朋友称为我的邻居,我们去了我们最喜欢的地方玩我们大概有七、九个孩子,
02:37
we arrived to that cliff it was more like a  small Mountain because it was a little big  
18
157260
7020
我们到达了那个悬崖,它更像是一座小山,因为它有点大,
02:44
we went there and started playing hide and seek  
19
164940
3180
我们去了那里,开始玩捉迷藏,
02:48
my brother Jeremy and I went to hide behind  one of the mountains it was not very far
20
168660
7500
我的兄弟杰里米和我躲在其中一座山后面 当我们在那里等待我们的朋友找到我们时,
02:58
when we were there waiting for  our friend to find us we saw a man  
21
178440
5220
距离不是很远, 我们看到一个男人
03:04
he was just standing there  about 100 meters from us  
22
184260
4200
,他就站在离我们大约100米的地方,
03:09
we thought he was one of our friend's  fathers so we didn't pay much attention to it
23
189180
7080
我们以为他是我们朋友的父亲之一,所以我们没有太注意它
03:19
minutes passed and no one came looking for  us we were starting to get bored in fact  
24
199860
6420
几分钟过去了,没有人来找我们,我们开始感到无聊,事实上,
03:26
we torrent the city man who  was standing in the distance  
25
206880
3180
我们洪流站在远处的城市人
03:31
but he wasn't there anymore we even  thought that we had imagined him
26
211020
6000
,但他已经不在那里了,我们甚至认为我们想象了他
03:41
and then he has maybe been a ghost so we got  scared and started running to the place where  
27
221280
8280
,然后他可能是一个鬼魂所以我们很害怕,开始跑到我其他朋友所在的地方,
03:49
my other friends were of course we lost the game  but we didn't care much about it we were shaking
28
229560
10020
当然我们输了比赛,但我们并不太在意,我们
04:03
with all our friends that we had seen a strange  man standing there and that he was looking at us  
29
243240
6720
和我们所有的朋友一起颤抖,我们看到一个陌生人站在那里,他是看着我们,
04:10
they started laughing they  said that we had imagined it  
30
250560
4500
他们开始大笑,他们说我们是想象出来的
04:15
but we knew we had seen him they didn't believe us
31
255780
5220
,但我们知道我们看到了他,他们不相信我们,
04:24
we continued playing and  we didn't see the man again  
32
264720
3180
我们继续玩,下午五点左右我们没有再看到那个人,
04:28
at about five in the afternoon we went  back home to have dinner we also told  
33
268620
5880
我们回家了晚餐时我们还给
04:34
my dad that story I mean that we saw  a man standing there and looking at us
34
274500
7560
我爸爸讲了这个故事,我的意思是我们看到一个男人站在那里看着我们
04:45
and that suddenly he had disappeared but  my parents didn't believe me either they  
35
285780
7860
,然后他突然消失了,但我父母也不相信我,他们
04:53
said I had just imagined that and  I started thinking that maybe yeah  
36
293640
6060
说我只是想象出来的,我开始想也许是的
05:00
maybe they were right and I had imagined him
37
300360
3960
也许他们是对的,我想象了他
05:07
so I just forgot about it the next  day we went to the same place as usual  
38
307380
6180
,所以第二天我就忘了这件事,我们像往常一样去了同一个地方,
05:14
but this time we went with our bikes we  love to ride our bikes on that mountain  
39
314280
6360
但这次我们骑着自行车去,我们喜欢在那座山上骑自行车,
05:21
there was only one bike or My Brother and Me
40
321540
3900
那里只有一辆自行车或我的哥哥和我,
05:29
so we normally had to share it I  didn't have any problem with that  
41
329040
5100
所以我们通常不得不分享它,我对此没有任何问题,
05:34
so we started playing hide and seek  again but this time with our bikes  
42
334140
4920
所以我们又开始玩捉迷藏,但这一次是用我们的自行车,
05:39
so we went to the same place there  back in the mountain we were hiding
43
339720
6780
所以我们去了山上我们躲起来的同一个地方,
05:50
suddenly we saw that man again this time  he was closer to us like 50 minutes from us  
44
350400
7980
突然我们这次再次看到那个人,他离我们更近,大约 50 分钟路程,
05:58
that's why I could see him more clearly  
45
358980
2940
这就是为什么我可以更清楚地看到他,
06:02
it was real I hadn't imagined him he  was a tall man with beard and long hair
46
362460
7140
这是真的,我没有想象到他,他是一个留着胡子和长发的高个子男人,
06:11
we thought he was homeless because  his clothes were very dirty and we  
47
371880
6360
我们以为他无家可归,因为他的衣服很脏,我们
06:18
could hardly see his face because  his hair was all over his face  
48
378240
5100
几乎看不到他的脸,因为他的头发全覆盖了他的脸,
06:24
he was there standing and looking at  us again he looked very weird seriously
49
384060
7140
他站在那里,再次看着我们,他看起来很严肃,
06:33
but he never came close to us so we  just stayed there right in our bike we  
50
393780
6360
但他从来没有靠近我们,所以我们就呆在自行车里
06:40
kept playing the whole afternoon as usual  then we realized it was very late for us  
51
400140
6960
像往常一样继续玩了整个下午,然后我们意识到对我们来说已经很晚了,
06:47
we normally went back home  at five in the afternoon
52
407820
3840
我们通常在下午五点回家,
06:55
but this time it was half past six  
53
415200
2760
但这次是六点半,
06:58
it was almost night we had been so entertained  playing that we had not realized the time  
54
418620
6960
几乎是晚上了,我们玩得太开心了,以至于我们没有意识到有一次
07:06
I told my brother to ride his bike and that I  could run to home that way we could arrive earlier
55
426300
7980
我告诉我哥哥骑自行车,我可以跑回家,这样我们就可以早点到达
07:16
so I started running and left  my brother behind with the bike  
56
436860
5340
所以我开始跑步,把我兄弟和自行车留在后面,
07:22
when I turned to see him there  was a man standing next to him  
57
442740
4620
当我转身看到他时,有一个男人站在他旁边,
07:28
that was the same man we had seen before  this time he was very close to my brother
58
448020
7020
这就是我们之前见过的那个人,这次他离我兄弟非常近,
07:38
he was next to him I didn't know what was  happening but suddenly my brother started crying  
59
458460
7020
他就在他旁边我我不知道发生了什么事,但突然我哥哥开始哭,
07:46
that man had taken his bike so  I ran back to him to help him  
60
466020
5640
说那个人拿走了他的自行车,所以我跑回去帮助他,
07:52
I couldn't let that man  steal our bike of course not
61
472320
4080
我不能让那个人偷了我们的自行车,当然不是
07:59
when I got there I told him that was  our bike and that he couldn't take  
62
479640
5580
当我到达那里时我告诉他那是我们的自行车,他不能拿走
08:05
it or we will call our parents he said  he didn't care he took the bike anyway  
63
485220
7020
,否则我们会打电话给我们的父母,他说他不在乎,他拿走了自行车,无论如何,
08:13
we started screaming calling  our friends so they can help us
64
493200
4680
我们开始尖叫打电话给我们的朋友,以便他们可以帮助我们,
08:21
then the man took the bike  and also took my brother's  
65
501600
3600
然后那个人拿走了自行车,还拿走了我兄弟的自行车
08:25
arm he said he had a place full  of cookies and candies for us  
66
505200
5280
他说他有一个地方摆满了饼干和糖果给我们,
08:31
with more bikes new bikes and that he wanted  us to go with him of course we didn't go
67
511140
8340
还有更多自行车和新自行车,他希望我们和他一起去,当然我们没有去,我
08:42
I wanted to run to my house but he was  holding my brother's arm I was so scared  
68
522780
6600
想跑到我家,但他拉着我哥哥的手臂我我很害怕,
08:49
I didn't know what to do I just took a  stone and threw it to the guy the rock  
69
529980
6480
我不知道该怎么办,我只是拿了一块石头扔给那个人,石头
08:56
fell on his head and he started  bleeding he left my brother's arm
70
536460
5820
掉到了他的头上,他开始流血,他离开了我兄弟的手臂,
09:04
I took my brother and ran to  a place my other friends were  
71
544320
4380
我带着我的兄弟跑到了我其他朋友所在的地方
09:09
I didn't look back at all I  just wanted to see my friends  
72
549480
4380
我根本没有回头,我只是想看看我的朋友,我
09:14
I was very very scared suddenly we found  our friends and we told him about the man
73
554640
7380
非常非常害怕,突然我们找到了我们的朋友,我们告诉了他关于那个人的事,
09:25
this time the man was there standing and bleeding  so everyone believed us this time they started  
74
565740
8880
这次那个人站在那里,流着血,所以每个人都相信了我们,这次他们开始
09:34
throwing more rocks to him so he left running  we took our bike and went back home that day
75
574620
9180
扔东西更多的石头给了他,所以他离开了,那天我们骑着自行车回家了,
09:47

76
587400
4080
我不得不向我父亲解释这次发生了什么,
09:51
time my friends were there so he  believed us and my brother too  
77
591480
4620
我的朋友们在那里,所以他相信我们和我的兄弟,
09:56
we never went to that place to play again and  probably it happened because it was very late
78
596760
8760
我们再也没有去那个地方玩了也许这件事发生是因为现在已经很晚了,
