Paris like the new Margarita. Everything in life was good. The next opera night was Friday. It was Faustaga in,but this time with La Carlotta singing Margarita. By Wednesday afternoon they were not so happy. A second letter arrived for them -from O.G. Why don't you listen to me? I am getting angry. Leave box 5 free for me. And where are my 20,000 francs? On Friday, Daae must sing Margarita again. She is now the best singer in Paris. La Carlotta cannot sing - She has a very ugly voice, like a toad. Remember?I am a bad enemy. O.G. "So, Firmin, is this still a joke?" Mr. Armand shouted. "What do we going to do now?eh? Is OG the director here, or are we?" "Don't shout, Armand".said Mr. Firmin tiredly. "I don't know the answers. Let's talk to Madame Giry, the doorkeeper of Box 5. Perhaps she can help us". But Madame Giry was not helpful. Madam Giry was not afraid of ghosts, and she was not afraid of directors of Opera Houses. "People say that you're a friend of the Opera ghost, Madam Giry," Mr. Armand began. "Tell us about him. Some people say he has no head." "And some people say he has no body", said Mr. Firmin. "What do you say, Madame Giry?" Madame Giry looked at the two men and laughed. "I say that the directors of the Opera House are fools!". "What? " Mr.Armand shouted. He stood up, and his face was red and angry. "Listen to me woman, ---". "Oh sit down, Armand,and listen," said Mr. Firmin. "Why do you say that, Madame Giry?" "Because, Monsieur, the Opera Ghost is angry with you. When the ghost wants something, he must have it. He is clever and dangerous, this ghost. The old directors before you, they knew that, oh yes. At first they tried to stop him. Then there were many accidents in the Opera House, many strange accidents. And when did these accidents happen? When the ghost was angry? So, the old directors learned very quickly. The ghost wants Box 5. He can have it every night. The ghost wants money? Let's give the money to him at once. Oh,yes, the old directors understood very well." "But we are the directors, not the opera ghost!" Mr. Armand shouted. He turned to Mr.Firmin. "This woman is mad. Why do we listen to her? On Friday night, La Carlotta is going to sing Margarita.And you and I, Firmin, are going to watch the opera from Box 5." "Well, we can try that, Armand. But we don't want any accidents. " Madame Giry came nearer to the two men. "Listen tome," she said quietly. "Remember Joseph Buquet? I tell you, the Opera ghost is a good friend, but a bad enemy." The two men stared at her." Those words, Mr.Firmin said slowly, "Why did you say those words? Madame Giry?" "Because the ghost says them to me. I never see him, but I often hear him. He has a very nice voice – and he doesn't shouted at people." 翻译 第四章:幽灵生气了那是周二晚上。星期三早上，阿尔芒先生和菲尔曼先生都很高兴。巴黎喜欢新的玛格丽塔。生活中的一切都是美好的。下一个歌剧之夜是星期五。福斯塔加来了，但这次是拉·卡洛塔唱的玛格丽塔。到了星期三下午，他们就不那么高兴了。他们收到了第二封信——来自O.G.你为什么不听我的?我要生气了。把5号包厢留给我吧。我的两万法郎呢?星期五，达埃必须再唱一次玛格丽塔。她现在是巴黎最好的歌手。拉·卡洛塔不会唱歌——她的声音很难听，像癞蛤蟆一样。还记得吗?我是一个坏敌人。O.G.“那么，菲尔曼，这还在开玩笑吗?”阿尔芒先生喊道。“我们现在该怎么办? 是吗?这里的主管是OG，还是我们?”“别喊，阿尔芒。”菲尔曼先生疲倦地说。“我不知道答案。让我们和5号包厢的看门人吉丽夫人谈谈。也许她能帮助我们。”但是吉丽夫人
