Epilogue

“I can’t believe it! We work at Monsters, Incorporated!” Mike said to Sulley. They both proudly wore their MI hard hats. “I bet we break the all-time record in our f irst year!”
“Mike, we’re in the mail room,” Sulley reminded him.
“Oh, I know,” he replied, smiling and sorting envelopes. “I’m talking about the record for letters delivered!”
“Hey, enough chatter, you two! Get back to work!” the mail manager barked.
“We’re right on it, Mr. Shrill!” Mike said. Then he turned to Sulley. “The team of Wazowski and Sullivan is going to change the world, starting today! Say ‘Scream!’” He held up a camera and snapped a picture of the two of them working.
And Mike wasn’t wrong. The next picture they added to their album was on the day they were given an award for Most Mail Delivered. Next came their promotion to cafeteria workers and their award for Most Soup Served. Finally, they made it onto a scare f loor as full-f ledged Scream Can Wranglers. And when the company had several openings in the scare department, Mike and Sulley were hired as a scare team.
On Mike’s f irst day, he stepped onto the scare f loor, clipboard in hand, smiling. Sulley walked past him. “You coming, Coach?” he asked.
Mike looked down and saw the yellow line that he’d accidentally stepped over when he was a kid. He’d come a long way since then. “You better believe it!” he answered. He stepped over the line proudly — and this time he knew it was exactly where he belonged.

后記

“我簡直不敢相信！我們真的在怪獸電力公司工作啦！”麥克對毛怪說道。他倆自豪地戴著公司的安全帽。“我敢打賭，第一年我們就能打破有史以來的紀(jì)錄！”
“麥克，我們只是收發(fā)員。”毛怪提醒道。
“哦，我知道。”麥克笑盈盈地分揀著信封，回答道，“我說的就是收發(fā)信件的紀(jì)錄??！”
“嘿，你倆聊夠了嗎！別磨蹭！”郵件經(jīng)理朝著麥克和毛怪嚷嚷。
“馬上就好，史銳爾先生！”麥克轉(zhuǎn)過身對毛怪說，“從今天起，華斯基和蘇利文組合將改變世界！說‘嚇’！”說著他舉起一臺照相機，將兩人工作的畫面記錄下來。
麥克沒有說錯。第二張放入他們相冊的合照，記錄的是他們獲得“最佳投遞員”的時刻。到第三張，他們已晉升為食堂員工并獲得了“最強打湯員”的稱號。最終，麥克和毛怪成功晉升到驚嚇層，成了技藝純熟的“裝罐員”。當(dāng)公司驚嚇部招聘的時候，麥克和毛怪以驚嚇組合的身份被聘用了。
上班第一天，麥克臉上掛著微笑，手中拿著寫字夾板來到驚嚇層。毛怪走過他身邊，問道：“準(zhǔn)備好了嗎，‘教練’？”
麥克低頭一看，眼前的黃線勾起了他兒時的回憶——小時候他無意中跨過的正是這條黃色警戒線。摸爬滾打了這么久，麥克終于又回到了這里。“當(dāng)然準(zhǔn)備好了！”他回答毛怪。說完，麥克自信滿滿地跨過了黃線——這次，他確信這里就是他真正的歸宿。
