Story Transcript:
Da: Det var sent i efteråret, og Botanisk Have i København stod som et magisk tæppe af orange og gule blade.
En: It was late in the autumn, and the Botanisk Have in København stood like a magical carpet of orange and yellow leaves.
Da: Luften var skarp, og duften af fugtig jord fyldte næseborene.
En: The air was crisp, and the scent of damp earth filled the nostrils.
Da: Freja elskede dette sted.
En: Freja loved this place.
Da: Hun var botaniker her, og pasningen af haven var hendes hjerteprojekt.
En: She was a botanist here, and the upkeep of the garden was her heart's project.
Da: Hun gik langs stierne og beundrede de store egetræer og fine buske.
En: She walked along the paths and admired the large oak trees and delicate bushes.
Da: Men der var et problem.
En: But there was a problem.
Da: De sjældne orkideer var forsvundet.
En: The rare orchids had disappeared.
Da: Freja stod foran det sted, hvor orkideerne plejede at være.
En: Freja stood in front of the spot where the orchids used to be.
Da: Hun mærkede en knude i maven.
En: She felt a knot in her stomach.
Da: Disse orkideer var en del af den sjældne samling – en samling, der skulle bevares.
En: These orchids were part of the rare collection—a collection that was meant to be preserved.
Da: Hendes blik gled hen over det tomme jordstykke.
En: Her gaze drifted over the empty patch of earth.
Da: Hvor kunne de være?
En: Where could they be?
Da: Hun gik inde i vagternes skur for at finde Mikkel.
En: She went inside the guards' shed to find Mikkel.
Da: "Mikkel, har du set nogen mærkelig aktivitet om natten?"
En: "Mikkel, have you noticed any strange activity at night?"
Da: spurgte hun.
En: she asked.
Da: Mikkel kiggede op fra sin avis og lo.
En: Mikkel looked up from his newspaper and laughed.
Da: "Nej, Freja, ingen suspekte i nat," sagde han og gik tilbage til sin læsning.
En: "No, Freja, no suspicious activity last night," he said, going back to his reading.
Da: Han så altid ud til at tro, hun bekymrede sig for meget.
En: He always seemed to think she worried too much.
Da: Lars, hendes kollega, var intet bedre.
En: Lars, her colleague, was no better.
Da: Han var alt for optaget af at planlægge sine egne forelæsninger til at beskæftige sig med Frejas bekymringer.
En: He was too busy planning his own lectures to be concerned with Freja's worries.
Da: Alligevel kunne Freja ikke ignorere det.
En: Nevertheless, Freja couldn't ignore it.
Da: Hun besluttede at undersøge sagen selv.
En: She decided to investigate the matter herself.
Da: Måske kunne hun finde frivillige til at hjælpe hende.
En: Maybe she could find volunteers to help her.
Da: Efter et opslag på haveens opslagstavle, meldte nogle nysgerrige folk sig til at hjælpe.
En: After a notice on the garden's bulletin board, some curious people signed up to help.
Da: Sammen gennemgik de haven omhyggeligt.
En: Together, they carefully combed through the garden.
Da: De lagde mærke til, at nogle buske var flyttet på en unaturlig måde.
En: They noticed that some bushes had moved in an unnatural way.
Da: "Se," sagde en af frivillige og pegede.
En: "Look," said one of the volunteers, pointing.
Da: Der var tegn på en skjult passage.
