秋天的大学宿舍总是充满了生机。
The university dormitory in autumn is always full of life.
窗外有微凉的秋风,吹来阵阵烤栗子的香味,是中秋节的标志。
There is a cool autumn breeze outside the window, bringing with it the aroma of roasted chestnuts, a symbol of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
在这间小而温暖的共享厨房里,李娟正烦恼不已。
In this small and cozy shared kitchen, Li Juan was quite distressed.
"有人又偷了我的面包!”玉浩嘴里塞着一块巧克力,连夜宵都吃得无滋味。
"Someone stole my bread again!" Yu Hao said, with a piece of chocolate in his mouth, even the midnight snack couldn't be enjoyed.
李娟是个讲究公平的学生。
Li Juan is a student who values fairness.
她尤其热衷于侦探小说。
She is particularly passionate about detective novels.
这次,她立志找出这个厨房小偷。
This time, she was determined to find this kitchen thief.
然而,她知道若不小心行事,会引起误会,甚至会失去朋友。
However, she knew that if she was not careful, it could lead to misunderstandings and even losing friends.
一天晚上,李娟决定和玉浩合作。
One evening, Li Juan decided to collaborate with Yu Hao.
她在厨房门口放了一个小本子,记下每个进出时间。
She placed a small notebook at the kitchen door to note each person's entrance and exit time.
她们静静等待,直到月亮高挂。
They waited quietly until the moon hung high.
几天过去了,李娟发现每次食物不见,眉凤总会出现。
A few days passed, and Li Juan noticed that every time food disappeared, Mei Feng would always appear.
眉凤有个传闻,说她喜欢囤月饼。
There was a rumor about Mei Feng liking to hoard mooncakes.
但是李娟觉得,事情可能没那么简单。
But Li Juan felt that things might not be that simple.
经过几晚的观察,李娟和玉浩发现了一些不对劲的地方。
After several nights of observation, Li Juan and Yu Hao noticed something unusual.
在厨房角落,有一个他们从未注意到的隐秘小门。
In the corner of the kitchen, there was a hidden small door that they had never noticed.
他们打开,看到了几个纸箱,里面却不是月饼,而是各式各样的食物。
Opening it, they saw several cardboard boxes, but instead of mooncakes, they contained all sorts of food.
"这不太像是单纯的偷窃,”玉浩小声说。
"This doesn't seem like simple theft," Yu Hao whispered.
再后来的一天晚上,他们终于看到了眉凤。
Later on, one night, they finally saw Mei Feng.
她小心翼翼地打开箱子,取出食物,走向宿舍外面。
She cautiously opened the boxes, took out food, and headed outside the dormitory.
李娟和玉浩尾随,惊讶地看到眉凤在外面喂几只瘦骨嶙峋的流浪猫影。
Li Juan and Yu Hao followed her and were surprised to see Mei Feng feeding a few thin stray cats outside.
“眉凤!”李娟轻声叫住她。
"Mei Feng!" Li Juan called her softly.
眉凤惊讶地回头,脸上瞬间出现了紧张。
Mei Feng turned around in surprise, her face showing immediate tension.
她说出原委,原来那些猫没人照顾,她就想默默帮助它们,并不想伤害任何人。
She explained the situation: it turned out that the cats had no one to care for them, and she just wanted to help them quietly without harming anyone.
李娟心软下来。
Li Juan felt her heart soften.
她与眉凤、玉浩一起商量,最终大家一同想出一个方法:宿舍可以为流浪动物设立一个食物角,这样既能帮助这些猫又能避免食物浪费。
She, Mei Feng, and Yu Hao discussed and eventually came up with a solution: the dormitory could establish a food corner for stray animals, which would help the cats and prevent food waste.
经过这次经历,李娟明白事情并不总是表面看起来的样子,她和同学们也因此更加团结。
Through this experience, Li Juan understood that things are not always as they seem, and she and her classmates became more united because of it.
中秋的团圆夜,宿舍里挂起了灯笼,大家团团坐着,分享月饼,也分享着彼此的温暖故事。
On the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion night, lanterns were hung in the dormitory, and everyone sat together, sharing mooncakes and each other's warm stories.
