白色巨石 The White Stones（5）

13　You go into the tomb¹. You see some pictures of knives on the wall. You hear a noise. Everything goes dark². You go to the door. You cannot open it.

Open the door!' you shout, but nobody³ comes.

You are afraid. You wait for a very long time but nobody comes.

You go to the back of the tomb. Go to 17.

You stay near the door. Go to 26.

14　The American woman walks nearer to you.

Suddenly⁴ a megalithic stone begins to move. The stone is behind the woman. She does not see that the stone is moving.

Look!' you say. 'The stone is falling!'

She smiles. 'I'm not stupid⁵, you know,' she says.

She does not look behind her. The megalithic stone makes a lot of noise. It falls on the woman.

You see the man with the long black hair. He is coming down the road. When he sees the woman under the stone, he runs away.

Go to 29.

15　You drive to your house and get out of your car.

The American woman is standing⁶ near your house. She is smiling.

Would⁷ you like to go to the Stones of Clayonag tomorrow?' she asks. 'I can't go with you but it's an interesting and important⁸ day. It's June 21. It's the longest day of the year. A lot of people go to Clayonag every year. You must go there early in the morning.'

Thank you,' you say. You go into your house.

Go to 21.

13　你进入坟墓。你看到墙上有几幅刀子的画。你听到有动静。一切都在黑暗中。你走到门口。你打不开门。

“开门!”你喊道，但没有人来。

你害怕了。你等了很长时间，但没有人来。

你去坟墓的后部。看第17节。

你呆在门附近。看第26节。

14　这个美国女人向你走近一些。突然，一块巨石开始动起来。石头在这个女人的后面。她没看到石头在动。

“看!”你说，“石头要倒了!”

她笑了。“要知道，我可不傻，”她说。

她没有向后看。巨石发出巨响，倒在了这个女人身上。

你看到了那个留着黑色长发的男人。他正沿着路走来。当看到石头下的女人时，他跑了。

看第29节。

15　你开车到你的住处，下了车。那个美国女人正站在你房子的附近。她笑着。

“你明天想去克劳纳格巨石阵吗?”她问。“我不能和你去，但那会是既有趣又重要的一天。6月21号。一年中最长的一天。每年这个时候很多人都去克劳纳格巨石阵。你必须一早就去。”

“谢谢你，”你说。你进了房子。

看第21节。
