Bertie knew there was something in the wind. His mother had been sad in recent days, not sick, just strangely sad. The lion had just lain down beside him, his head warm on Bertie's feet, when Father

cleared his throat and began, "You'll soon be eight, Bertie. A boy needs a proper education. We've found the right place for you, a school near Salisbury in England."

His heart filled with a terrible fear, all Bertie could think of was his white lion. "But the lion," he cried, "What about the lion?"

"I'm afraid there's something else I have to tell you," his father said. Looking across at Bertie's mother, he took a deep breath. Then he told Bertie he had met a circus owner from France, who was over

in Africa looking for lions to buy. He would come to their farm in a few days.

"No! You can't send him to a circus!" said Bertie. "People will come to see him. He'll be shut up

behind bars. I promised him he never would be. And  they will laugh at him. He'd rather die. Any animal would!" But as he looked across the table at them, he knew their minds were quite made up.

Bertie felt completely betrayed. He waited until he heard his father's deep breathing next door. With his white lion at his heels, he crept downstairs in his pyjamas, took down his father's rifle from the rack

and stepped out into the night. He ran and ran till his legs could run no more. As the sun came up over the

grassland, he climbed to the top of a hill and sat down, his arms round the lion's neck. The time had come.

"Be wild now," he whispered. "You've got to be wild. Don't ever come home. All my life I'll think of you, I promise I will." He buried his head in the lion's neck. Then, Bertie clambered down off the hill and

walked away.

When he looked back, the lion was still sitting there watching him; but then he stood up, yawned, stretched, and sprang down after him. Bertie shouted at him, but he kept coming. He threw sticks. He

threw stones. Nothing worked.

There was only one thing left to do. With tears filling his eyes and his mouth, he lifted the rifle to his shoulder and fired over the lion's head.

伯蒂知道风中有什么东西。他的母亲最近几天很难过，没有生病，只是奇怪的难过。狮子刚躺在他身边，头温暖地靠在伯蒂的脚上，这时父亲

清了清嗓子，开始说：“你很快就八岁了，伯蒂。一个男孩需要适当的教育。我们为你找到了合适的地方，在英国索尔兹伯里附近的一所学校。”

他的心里充满了可怕的恐惧，伯蒂所能想到的只有他的白狮子。“但是狮子，”他喊道，“那狮子呢？”

“恐怕我还有别的事情要告诉你，”他的父亲说。他望着伯蒂的母亲，深深地吸了一口气。然后他告诉伯蒂，他遇到了一位来自法国的马戏团老板，他已经结束了

在非洲寻找可以购买的狮子。过几天他就会来他们的农场。

“不！你不能把他送到马戏团去！”伯蒂说。“人们会来看他的。他会闭嘴的。”

在狱中。我答应过他永远不会，他们会嘲笑他的。他宁愿死。任何动物都会！“但当他看着桌子对面的他们时，他知道他们已经下定决心了。

伯蒂觉得自己完全被出卖了。他一直等到听到隔壁父亲深呼吸的声音。他跟在白色的狮子后面，穿着睡衣悄悄地走下楼梯，从枪架上取下父亲的步枪

走到深夜。他跑啊跑，直到他的腿跑不动了。当太阳升起时

草原上，他爬到山顶坐下，双臂搂着狮子的脖子。时间到了。

“现在要狂野，”他低声说。“你一定要狂野。永远不要回家。我一辈子都会想起你，我保证我会的。”他把头埋在狮子的脖子上。然后，伯蒂爬下山

走开了。

当他回头看的时候，狮子仍然坐在那里看着他；但随后他站了起来，打了个哈欠，伸了个懒腰，跟着跳了下来。伯蒂对他大喊大叫，但他一直来。他扔棍子。他

扔石头。什么都没用。

只剩下一件事了。他热泪盈眶，把步枪举到肩上，朝狮子头开了枪。
