Cheyanne...Commander, are you ready? I'm going to take the picture, okay?……指挥官,您准备好了吗?我要拍了哦?

CommanderMm, go ahead.嗯,拍吧。

(Cheyanne leans in close beside me, gesturing for me to look into the lens.)(夏安轻轻地凑到我身边,示意我看向她的镜头。)

(In the flipped digital screen, we are pressed together. Cheyanne's face is flushed, and her expression is a little too stiff from nervousness.)(翻转的电子屏幕中,我们挨在一起,夏安的脸红扑扑的,表情因为紧张而有些过分严肃。)

CommanderWait, are you sure you don't need some more time to get ready?等等,你要不要再准备一下?

(I poke the corner of Cheyanne's tense lips lightly.)(我点了点夏安绷紧的唇角。)

CommanderSmile a bit. If you look so stiff and serious, I might look at the photo in the future and think you didn't enjoy going on missions with me...笑一笑吧。留下的照片这么严肃,以后我回忆起来会以为你不喜欢跟我一起行动……

CheyanneNo, that's absolutely not true! Being by your side makes me very happy.不,绝对不是!能待在您身边,我感到非常幸福。

CheyannePlease don't misunderstand.请您千万别产生这样的误解。

(Cheyanne finally shows a shy smile.)(夏安终于露出了有些害羞的笑容。)

CheyanneCommander, this time I'm really taking it.指挥官,这次是真的要拍了。

Cheyanne...Ch-cheese?……茄、茄子?

(After the shutter clicks, the camera's focus quickly shifts to somewhere behind M200 and me. The outline of a passing girl in the background is as sharp as a blade, while M200 and I in the foreground blur like melting cream.)(快门声后,镜头焦点迅速转移到我与M200身后的某处。背后的路人少女轮廓如刀锋般锐利,而前景中的我与M200则如奶油般化开。)

(I glance at Cheyanne beside me. Her smile has already vanished. She studies the screen with a serious, focused gaze, as if bracing for something.)(我看向身边的夏安,她的笑容已经消失,观察着屏幕的目光认真而专注,看上去严阵以待。)

CheyanneCapture successful. Target activity remains normal.捕捉成功,目标活动一切正常。

Cheyanne...Switching like this is a bit troublesome. I'll reduce the aperture...……这样切换有一点麻烦,我把光圈调小一点吧……

(Cheyanne murmurs softly to herself as she adjusts the camera settings.)(夏安小声地自言自语,一边调整着相机的参数。)

CommanderShe's the one you're protecting, right?你要保护的就是她吧?

CheyanneYes. According to the client's briefing, the client's daughter—the protection target for this mission—strongly resists being closely followed by a bodyguard.是的。根据委托人的情况说明,客户的女儿——也就是本次任务的保护对象,十分抗拒贴身保镖的跟随。

CheyanneSo the client has entrusted me to protect her covertly, without being discovered.所以,客户委托我暗中保护目标,不要被目标发现。

CommanderMm. That matches the info I have.嗯,这些信息和我的了解一致。

CheyanneCommander, thank you very much for accompanying me on this mission. If I, as a T-Doll, came to an amusement park alone, it might attract unnecessary curiosity and attention. It's fortunate that you're here...指挥官,非常感谢您愿意陪我进行这次任务。如果作为人形的我独自来游乐园,可能会引起不必要的好奇和关注,幸好有您在……

CommanderDon't mention it at all. I'm actually curious about how you carry out this kind of mission, so this is a good chance to experience it firsthand.你不用这么客气。其实我很好奇你执行这类任务的过程,正好这次亲自体验一下。

CheyanneI understand. I hope you'll enjoy the experience.我明白了,希望您会喜欢这次的体验。

Cheyanne...Oh, bother...……啊,这是……

CommanderWhat's wrong?怎么了?

CheyanneI just made eye contact with the target.我刚才和目标对上视线了。

CommanderThat's not good. We've been following her for a while. She might have noticed something.不妙,我们已经跟着她很久了,对方或许有所察觉。

CheyanneCommander, should we test it?指挥官,要验证一下吗?

CommanderHow do you want to do that?你想怎么做?

(Cheyanne dashes toward the carousel behind the target. She accelerates, overtakes the girl, and finally stops at the entrance, spreading her arms and waving at me energetically.)(夏安向着目标身后的旋转木马跑去。她加速冲刺越过目标女孩,最终停在设施入口前,张开双臂对我用力地挥手。)

CheyanneWowwww! There's a carousel! Come on!哇——有旋转木马——快来快来!

(Perhaps to stay true to the persona she has assumed, Cheyanne appears far more cheerful than usual, which is quite a rare sight.)(或许是为了贴合她给自己设计的人物性格,此时的夏安显得比平时开朗多了,这样的她十分少见。)

CommanderWant to ride it?想坐吗?

CheyanneLet's wait until sunset. Maybe we can see the pretty clouds in pink and orange then.等傍晚再坐吧,那时说不定可以看见彩霞哦。

CheyanneC-come on, let's go! Let's try some other rides first!走、走啦,现在先去玩别的项目吧!

(Cheyanne grabs my arm and pulls me away from the carousel, naturally putting distance between us and the target. Even though her gaze flickers, she does her best to keep her expression natural.)(夏安抱住我的手臂,将我拖离旋转木马边,也顺势远离了目标女孩。即使她的目光有些闪烁,表情还是努力地保持着自然。)

CheyanneCommander, she has definitely noticed something, though she isn't entirely certain yet.指挥官,对方确实有所察觉,只是还没有完全确认而已。

CheyanneWhen I started running, she immediately picked up on my movement and became visibly tense...我开始跑动时,目标立刻注意到了我的动作,而且明显变得紧张……

CommanderI saw. She visibly relaxed after you passed her.我看见了,你越过她之后,她明显地松了一口气。

CheyanneWe've aroused her suspicion... Is it because we don't quite look like normal visitors?被怀疑了……因为我们的表现还是不太像来这里玩的游客?

CheyanneI'd like to try adjusting my behavior pattern and act more like a tourist. Could you play along, Commander?指挥官,我想试试调整我的行为模式,表现得更像“游客”,您可以配合我的调整吗?

CommanderNo problem.没问题。

CheyanneTo be safe, we should also change how we address each other. Calling you "Commander" is a bit too conspicuous.保险起见,称呼也需要一起改变,称您为“指挥官”有些惹眼。

CheyanneApologies in advance, but from now on, I'll be calling you...失礼了,现在开始我会称您为……

CheyanneM-Master.主、主人。

Commander...Uh, let's just pretend to be siblings.……呃,我们还是扮演兄妹吧。

CheyanneUnderstood.好的。

(Cheyanne falls silent for a moment, as if taking some time to get into character. I can almost hear her faint intake of breath.)(夏安沉默了片刻,似乎在做着心理建设。我几乎可以听见她细细抽气的声音。)

Cheyanne...Big brother?……哥哥?

CommanderHm, and then? What are you planning to—嗯。然后呢?你打算怎么……

(Cheyanne suddenly tightens her grip on my arm.)(夏安抱着我手臂的力度忽然一紧。)

CheyanneBig brother, I want ice cream!哥哥,我想吃冰激凌!

(Cheyanne frees up one hand and points toward a food cart ahead.)(夏安抽出一只手,指向我们前方的流动餐车。)

(I lead her toward the cart, and we exchange a silent glance.)(我带着夏安走向餐车,一边无声地交换着眼神。)

CheyanneThe target is watching us...哥哥,目标在看我们……

(Cheyanne reports softly.)(夏安轻声向我报告。)

CommanderI know. Keep acting.我知道了,接着演。

CommanderHello, two ice creams, please...您好,请给我两个冰激凌……

CommanderCheyanne, what flavor do you want?夏安,你想要什么口味的?

CheyanneVanilla.牛乳吧。

Food Cart WorkerTwo vanilla ice creams?两个牛乳?

Food Cart WorkerHm? One moment please... I'm very sorry, there's only one scoop of vanilla left...咦?请稍等……真是不好意思,这里只剩最后一份……

(I look at Cheyanne. Her gaze has already drifted to the glass of the cart. The silhouette of the target is faintly visible in the reflection.)(我看向夏安。她的视线已经飘向了餐车玻璃,透过玻璃的反光,隐约可见目标女孩的身影。)

(Clearly, now is not a good time to disturb her.)(很显然,现在不是打扰她的好时机。)

CommanderThen just one will do.那给我一个吧。

Food Cart WorkerSure thing. Thank you for your purchase.没问题,谢谢惠顾。

CommanderHere you go.吃吧。

(Cheyanne is focused entirely on the target and doesn't take the ice cream I hand her. Instead, she leans in and takes a bite directly from it.)(注意力集中于目标的夏安并未接过我递去的冰激凌,而是凑上来就着我的手咬了一口。)

CheyanneThank you, Com... uh... big brother.谢谢您,指、呃……哥哥。

(Her serious gaze remains fixed on the cart's glass.)(夏安认真的眼神仍旧粘在餐车玻璃上。)

(Seeing how serious she looks, I can't help teasing her a little.)(看着她严肃的表情,我忍不住想逗一逗她。)

CommanderCheyanne, is it sweet or salty?夏安,这是甜的还是咸的?

CheyanneSalty...? N-no, ice cream is sweet. It has a rich milk flavor. You should try some too.咸的……?不、不是,冰激凌甜甜的,牛奶的香味十足哦,您也吃一点吧。

(Cheyanne finally snaps back to herself and gently lifts my hand to bring the ice cream to my mouth.)(夏安终于回过神,捧着我的手将冰激凌送往我嘴边。)

CommanderMm, it's pretty good.嗯,确实不错。

CommanderBut... how did you get some on the tip of your nose?不过……你是怎么吃到鼻尖上去的?

CheyanneHuh? There's cream on my face?诶?我脸上有奶油?

(Cheyanne sticks out her tongue to lick it, then, seeing me shake my head, she blushes and touches her nose.)(夏安伸出舌尖舔了舔,见我对她摇头,又涨红了脸摸了摸鼻尖。)

CheyanneThere isn't...没有呀……

CommanderExactly.没有就对了。

Cheyanne...Huh?……呃?

(Cheyanne looks at me a bit indignantly.)(夏安无辜地看着我。)

CommanderJust teasing you. You looked too serious—I couldn't help it.是逗你的。看你太严肃,忍不住……

Cheyanne...Big brother, you meanie.……哥哥真是狡猾呢。

CommanderIt'll melt if you don't eat it soon.再不吃要化了。

CheyanneThen... let's finish it together. Please, big brother.那……一起解决吧,拜托您了,哥哥。

(We smile at each other and quickly take turns to finish the ice cream.)(我们相视而笑,你一口我一口地快速解决了冰激凌。)

CheyanneI can feel the target's gaze... She doesn't seem to be wary of us anymore.我能感觉到目标的视线,好像没再在意我们了。

CheyanneAh, she's moving farther away.啊,她要走远了。

(Cheyanne signals for us to leave the cart and follow from a distance.)(夏安示意我一起离开餐车,远远地跟上目标。)

CheyanneBig brother, our adjustment worked.哥哥,我们的调整奏效了。

CheyanneImmersing ourselves in the role of visitors seems to have lowered her guard...沉浸在游客的身份中,似乎就能打消一点目标的戒心……

CommanderGood. Let's keep tracking her like this.很好,就这样继续追踪吧。

CheyanneThe next attraction she's heading to is... a haunted house?目标选择的下一个设施是……鬼屋?

CheyanneAn indoor environment makes things more complicated. We need to stay close.室内环境复杂,我们要跟紧一点。

(Cheyanne quickens her pace toward the haunted house entrance, but soon stops again.)(夏安加快了脚步走向鬼屋入口,但很快,她又停了下来。)

(I follow her gaze and see several people entering right behind the target.)(我顺着夏安的目光望去,正好看见几人紧跟着目标走进鬼屋。)

CheyanneThey're scanning their surroundings before entering. They seem tense.他们入场之前四处张望了一圈,表情也很紧张。

CheyanneCommander, I'm afraid they...指挥官,我担心……

CheyanneYeah. They're armed.啊,他们带了枪。

(As if confirming Cheyanne's suspicion, a gust of movement lifts the hem of their clothing, revealing the faint outline of pistol grips at their waists.)(如同是要印证夏安的猜测,对方走动时带起的风掀起了衣角,露出了他们腰间若隐若现的手枪握把!)

CommanderCould they be replicas? ...No! Something's wrong. This violates the park's safety regulations.模型玩具?……不!不对劲,这违反游乐园的安全规则。

CommanderLet's follow. Be ready to engage at any moment.我们跟上,随时准备作战。

CheyanneUnderstood.明白。

??EEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!——呀啊——

(A scream echoes from inside the haunted house. Nearby visitors smile, completely unaware of the danger lurking not far away. Only Cheyanne and I pick up our pace.)(鬼屋中传来一阵尖叫。周围的游客们对不远处潜藏的危机一无所知,纷纷露出笑容,只有我和夏安加快了脚步。)

??Stay back! Aaaah!——不要过来——啊啊啊——

(We weave through the complex corridors. Harsh, swinging beams of light sweep across my eyes again and again. Enduring the glare, I can barely make out several attackers cornering a girl ahead.)(我们在复杂的通道中穿梭,刺眼的摇头光束灯时不时扫过我的眼睛。忍受着这些光线,我勉强看清了前方将一名女孩逼入角落的几名歹徒。)

CheyanneIt's a kidnapping. I can stop them.是绑架,我可以阻止他们。

CheyanneCommander, please close your eyes...指挥官,请闭上眼……

CommanderBe careful.你小心。

CheyannePlease trust me.请您相信我。

CheyanneI won't let you down.而我,不会让您失望。

(Meeting Cheyanne's calm gaze, I smile and decide to trust her completely.)(对上夏安镇定的目光,我笑了笑,选择完全信任夏安。)

(Closing my eyes in the middle of a mission... is certainly not something I tend to do.)(在任务中途闭上眼,这种经历可少有。)

CheyanneThank you.谢谢您。

(Bang-bang-bang. The gunshots are masked by the haunted house's sound effects.)(——砰砰砰。枪声被鬼屋中的音效覆盖。)

(A Doll's body presses close, gently holding onto one of my arms. Cheyanne whispers into my ear.)(人形的身体贴近我,轻轻地抱住我的一只手臂。夏安的声音在我耳侧响起。)

CheyanneEnemy targets hit. Tranquilizer rounds.命中敌方目标,是麻醉弹。

CheyanneThe mission is proceeding smoothly. We resolved the situation before they could draw their weapons.任务顺利,我们赶在对方拔枪前解决了这场事故。

CommanderWell done. Clean and efficient.干得漂亮,非常利落。

CheyanneOur masquerade... isn't over yet.我们的扮演,还没有结束……

CommanderHm?嗯?

CheyanneBig brother, did you see that just now? That improv felt so real!哥,你看到刚才那个了吗?好真实的互动哦!

CommanderUh... yeah. Very immersive.呃……嗯,确实,沉浸感很强。

CheyanneThe actors must work really hard. This job isn't easy...演员们真是辛苦了,这行不容易呢……

(Cheyanne naturally turns toward our protection target.)(夏安自然地转向我们的保护目标。)

CheyanneHi, are you here on your own? Wanna walk through the rest of the haunted house together?你好,你是一个人来玩的吗?要不要一起走?

CheyanneWe keep bumping into each other.我们好像很有缘呢。

Girl...Huh? Th-those were actors...?……咦?演、演员……?

CheyanneDid they scare you? Hello?被吓到了吗?你好?

CheyanneI think we're taking a similar route around the amusement park. Why don't we stick together?我们的游玩路线好像和你差不多,要顺路一起吗?

Girl...……

GirlPhew... just actors...呼……只是演员呀……

GirlU-um, y-yeah, I'll come with you! Being in a haunted house alone is just too... too...唔呃,我……我想跟你们一起走!一个人玩鬼屋果然还是太……太……

CheyanneHeheh, then let's go!嘿嘿,那就走吧!

(Cheyanne winks at me out of the girl's line of sight.)(女孩并未在意的角度,夏安对我眨了眨眼。)

(The impromptu amusement park trio continues together until nightfall, when the girl finally says goodbye.)(临时组成的游乐园小队一直结伴玩到了夜幕降临,女孩才向我们道别。)

GirlAh, my driver's here to pick me up! Shall we part here?呀,司机来接我啦!我们就在这里分开吧?

GirlIt was great meeting you. I had a lot of fun today.很高兴认识你们,今天我玩得很开心哦。

CheyanneYes! So did we!嗯!我们也玩得很开心。

CheyanneBye!再见!

(As we watch her leave, Cheyanne's expression finally relaxes.)(目送着女孩离开,夏安的表情才逐渐放松下来。)

CommanderThat was impressive, Cheyanne.很厉害啊,夏安。

(Her cheeks turn pink.)(夏安的脸颊变成了粉红色。)

CheyanneThank you for your praise. But... our mission isn't over yet.谢谢您的夸奖,只是,我们的任务还没有结束。

CheyanneWe need another excuse to follow her—we must escort her home safely.该找别的理由跟上那位小姐了,我们要把她护送到家。

CommanderLet's go. We'll drive too.走吧,我们也去开车。

Commander...Why did you choose to keep up the charade?……刚才你为什么会选择继续表演下去?

CheyanneBecause an amusement park is a place of happiness. Since we had the chance to conceal the ugly truth... I wanted the young lady to leave with happy, ordinary memories. No bodyguards, no kidnapping—just a normal outing.因为游乐园是快乐的地方,既然有机会遮掩……我希望那位小姐在这里留下的回忆,都是美好的、普通的游园回忆。没有保镖,也没有绑架,只是普通的一次出游。

CommanderYou've really thought it through.你考虑得很周全。

CheyanneP-please... stop praising me...别……请别再夸我了……

CheyanneWhat about you, Commander? Did you have fun today?指挥官,您呢?今天,您开心吗?

CommanderMe? I found it very interesting. It's been years since I last observed your work. You've really impressed me.我?我觉得很有趣,多年不见,你的表现让我刮目相看。

CheyanneUgh. Commander, I'll overload if you keep praising me...呜呃,指挥官,再夸下去我就要宕机了……

CommanderHaha. Come to the ops room and get me the next time there's a mission like this.哈哈,下次有这样的任务,再来指挥室叫我吧。

CheyanneO-okay! I definitely will!好、好的!我一定会去!

CheyanneThank you, Commander.指挥官,谢谢您。

(The transport vehicle slowly comes to a stop in an open area. Not far away stand the typical, plain buildings of the Yellow Zone. Groza gives me a slight nod from the driver's seat, then jumps down from the vehicle.)(运输车缓缓停在空地上,不远处是黄区典型的朴素建筑。主驾驶位的闪电向我轻轻点头,随即跃下运输车。)

(The door opens a moment later. Groza signals that it's safe to disembark. Behind her, Colphne waves at me.)(片刻之后,车门打开,闪电示意我可以安全下车。在她的身后,寇尔芙对我挥了挥手。)

GrozaCommander, we've arrived.指挥官,我们到了。

CommanderSend a message to the underground broker. Tell them to come out and receive the goods.给暗商发消息吧,可以出来交接货物了。

(Thump, thump.)(咚,咚。)

GrozaUnderstood.明白。

(Thump, thump, bang.)(咚,咚,砰。)

ColphneHuh, our vehicle seems to be... making noise. Could there be a malfunction?哎呀,我们的车好像……一直在响哦,是不是有什么故障呢?

ColphneCommander, should I take a look?指挥官,需要我去查看一下吗?

CommanderYou heard it too? Let's check it out together.你也听到了?一起确认一下吧。

(Groza and Colphne exchange a glance and raise their weapons.)(闪电和寇尔芙对视一眼,纷纷举起武器。)

(The sound is coming from the cargo compartment. Groza unlocks the door and swiftly pulls one open, while Colphne aims her weapon at the opening.)(声音的来源是载货车厢。闪电解除了车门锁定,飞快地挑开了一扇车门。与此同时,寇尔芙的武器也对准了车厢的方向。)

CheyanneMiss Groza! Wait!闪电小姐!等等!

(Groza quirks an eyebrow at the familiar voice, and Colphne pauses as well.)(熟悉的声音让闪电眉头微挑,寇尔芙的动作也顿了顿。)

CheyanneIt's me. Could you lower your guns first?是我。可以请您先把枪放下吗?

(The doors finally swing fully open. A small Doll crouches meekly behind them with her hands over her head.)(车门终于彻底打开,小小的人形双手抱头蹲在车门后,看上去十分老实。)

CheyanneI... um... surrender.我……呃……投降。

CommanderCheyanne? What are you doing in the truck?夏安?你怎么在车上?

(Cheyanne lowers her hands and looks up, her face flushed red.)(夏安放下抱头的双手,抬起头露出涨得通红的小脸。)

CheyanneIt's... a long story...说来话长……

CheyanneI went looking for you in the ops room yesterday, but you were busy and it didn't seem appropriate to interrupt, so I stayed quiet.我是昨天去指挥室找指挥官的,因为您正在忙碌,好像不方便打扰,我就一直没有出声。

CheyanneA few hours later, Miss Groza came to fetch you. I still wanted to finish what I had to say, so... I followed you onto the vehicle...几个小时后,闪电小姐就来请您出发了。我还是想把我的话说完,所以,我跟着您上了车……

CheyanneI just wanted to... follow along. Before I knew it, it turned into this...只是……想要跟着您,不知不觉就变成这样了……

CheyanneI never found a chance to show myself along the way. I completely missed the right moment to greet you.这一路也没有找到现身的机会,好像完全错失了打招呼的时机。

CommanderI see.原来如此。

CommanderSo you've been with us for over ten hours?这么说,你已经跟着我们十几个小时了?

CheyanneY-yes. I'm very sorry. I swear I'm really not some kind of strange stalker.是、是的,非常抱歉,我真的不是什么奇怪的跟踪狂哦。

GrozaWe didn't detect your thermal signal. That's some seriously impressive infiltration skills.我们没有扫描到你的热信号,真是令人惊讶的潜伏技术。

CheyanneI was too embarrassed, so I subconsciously activated a module with a certain cloaking and masking function.因为太不好意思了,所以下意识启动了带有一定隐身屏蔽功能的组件。

CheyanneI thought this state of affairs couldn't continue any longer... so I've turned it off.直到刚才我才反应过来,这样下去好像不行……现在,我已经关闭隐身组件了。

CheyanneThank you for noticing me. I thought I'd be completely forgotten and left here until my power ran out.谢谢你们注意到我,我还以为我会被彻底遗忘,在这里待到能源耗尽。

ColphneHeheh, sorry to interrupt.嘻嘻,打断一下哦。

ColphneCommander, our underground broker will be arriving soon.指挥官,我们的暗商马上就要到了呢。

(Following Colphne's gaze, I also see someone stepping out of the building and running toward us.)(顺着寇尔芙的目光,我也看见了有人从建筑中走出,正向我们跑来。)

CommanderAn old acquaintance. We've worked together a few times before...是老朋友啊,之前合作过几次了……

CommanderCheyanne, come stand by my side. Didn't you have something you wanted to say? We'll talk later.夏安,站到我身边来。你不是有事要说吗?之后再找机会聊。

(The communication with the underground broker goes very smoothly. After the deal is concluded, I have Groza and Colphne go check and move the goods we purchased, while Cheyanne stays as my bodyguard.)(和暗商的沟通过程非常顺利,达成交易之后,我让闪电和寇尔芙前去查看和搬运我们采购的货物,夏安来负责我的安全。)

(While waiting for Groza and Colphne, we receive an invitation from the underground broker to their lounge. They've arranged afternoon tea.)(在等待闪电和寇尔芙时,我们收到暗商的邀请前往他们的会客厅,对方安排了下午茶。)

Commander...Cheyanne, have a seat.……夏安,你坐下吧。

CheyanneMiss Groza and Colphne aren't here. Your safety is in my hands.闪电小姐和寇尔芙都不在这里,您的安全只能由我来保障了。

CheyanneCommander, I will properly fulfill my duty as your bodyguard.指挥官,我会好好担任保镖的。

(Even when I'm seated on the soft, comfortable sofa, Cheyanne remains standing at my side, gripping her weapon tightly with both hands; she's so serious it's almost excessive.)(我在松软舒适的沙发上坐好之后,夏安依旧站在我身侧,双手紧紧地抱着武器,认真得有些过于严肃。)

CommanderRelax a little. We've worked with this underground broker many times. The risk level is low.放松一点。这个暗商我们合作过多次了,危险系数不高。

CheyanneYes, Commander.是。

CommanderThis isn't your mission. You don't have to treat my words as orders.这不是你的任务,也不用把我的话当成指令。

CommanderLast time, you asked me to go to the amusement park with you. This time, it's my turn to invite you along. Just treat this as an ordinary outing to purchase supplies. Sit down with me, have some tea, and let's have a chat.上一次你不是让我陪你去游乐园吗?这次轮到我邀请你陪我了。就把这当成一次普通的外出采购,陪我坐下喝茶聊天吧。

CheyanneO-okay!好、好的!

(Cheyanne's face still carries a lingering blush. She seems a bit stiff, but at least she obediently sits down.)(夏安的脸上仍残留着未褪的红晕,似乎有些拘谨,但至少乖巧地坐下了。)

CommanderWant some cake? Tea or coffee?吃蛋糕吗?你要红茶还是咖啡?

(As I ask, I push the snacks brought by the broker's staff toward her.)(我一边询问,一边将暗商的工作人员送来的点心推向夏安。)

CheyanneI'm fine with anything... Oh, thank you!我都可以……啊,谢谢您!

Cheyanne...It's delicious.……好吃。

(Cheyanne's tense posture gradually relaxes as she enjoys the snacks and sips tea.)(吃着点心喝着茶,夏安紧绷的肢体渐渐放松下来。)

Cheyanne...So close.……真近呢。

(Cheyanne looks into my eyes, momentarily dazed.)(夏安看着我的眼睛,似乎有些出神愣怔。)

CommanderYou seem a little absent-minded?怎么呆呆的?

CheyanneI will maintain basic vigilance. Please rest assured.我会保持基本的警惕的,请您放心。

CheyanneIt's just... I would never have imagined I could sit... this close to you...只是,以前的我一定想不到,我也可以坐在……离您这么近的地方……

(Cheyanne suddenly lowers her head, looking a little ashamed.)(夏安突然有些惭愧地低下了头。)

Cheyanne...But I've caused trouble for you, haven't I?……不过,对您来说,这次我是给您添麻烦了吧?

CheyanneI cherish every chance I get to interact with you, so I'm always trying to say and do just the right thing.因为很珍惜与您接触的机会,所以总是想要给出最完美的回应。

CheyanneEver since I went to your office and saw you working yesterday, I've been thinking about what I should say, with what kind of expression, whether I should start with a greeting or directly state my request...昨天我到您的办公室之后,看着您工作的样子,我就一直想着应该用什么表情面对您呢,应该说些什么呢,要从问好开始,还是直接提出我的请求……

CheyanneBut after hesitating for just a short while, you had already left. Once the moment had passed, the things I prepared might no longer be appropriate. Commander, what should I do?只是稍微犹豫了一段时间,您就走开了。一旦错失了时机,之前考虑好的话也可能变得不合时宜。指挥官,我该怎么做才好呢?

CommanderYou're overthinking it.你想的太多了。

CommanderNow that you're part of the crew, you can come see me whenever you want. There's no need to plan every word. Even if you don't get to say everything you want today, you can come back the next day.现在你已经成为了艾莫号的一员,以后想什么时候见我都可以,没有必要逐字逐句地考虑清楚。就算今天没有说完,第二天也可以继续找我。

CheyanneIs that... really okay?真的……可以吗?

CommanderOf course. You're always welcome.当然,我这里随时欢迎你。

CommanderYou don't have to think everything through in front of me. It's okay to make mistakes sometimes. We're already close comrades—we accept each other for who we are. I make mistakes too. Would you dislike me for that?在我面前,不用深思熟虑也没关系,偶尔有失误也没关系。我们已经是亲密的战友了,可以互相包容的。我也会有思虑不周的时候,难道你会嫌弃我吗?

CheyanneNo, of course not.不,当然不会。

CommanderThen that's it. The same goes for me.那就对了,我和你的心情是一样的。

CheyanneUm... So I can be more direct? I can still talk to you, even if it's not the best timing?唔……所以,我可以直接一点?就算不是最好的时机,也可以和您说话吗?

CommanderOf course.当然。

(Just then, Groza and Colphne enter the lounge. Cheyanne tenses up again for a moment at the sound of the door opening and their footsteps.)(就在此时,闪电和寇尔芙进入了会客厅。开门声和脚步声让夏安的身体再次紧绷了一瞬。)

GrozaCommander, the goods have been checked. No issues. We can return to the Elmo.指挥官,货品清点完毕,没有问题,可以返回艾莫号了。

CommanderRight, then let's head back.嗯,那我们回程吧。

(Groza and Colphne walk ahead. As I adjust my protective suit, Cheyanne reaches out and taps my arm lightly, as if she has something to say.)(闪电和寇尔芙走在前方。借着我调整防护服的机会,夏安伸出指尖,拍了拍我的胳膊,似乎有话要说。)

(I lean closer in understanding and Cheyanne immediately comes close to my ear.)(我会意地凑向她,夏安立刻附耳上来。)

CheyanneYou said it doesn't have to be the best timing, so I-I want to try... right now...您说过不是最好的时机也没关系,所以,我、我想试试,就是现在……

(A clear blush spreads across Cheyanne's cheeks again. Her hand rests lightly on my arm, her loosely clenched fist tightening slightly as she grows nervous.)(清透的粉色再次爬上了夏安的面颊,看上去秀色可餐。她的手轻轻搭在我的胳膊上,虚握的拳微微收紧,似乎又紧张起来了。)

CheyanneCommander, p-please come to my quarters!指挥官,请、请您来我的休息室一趟!

CheyanneIt's about my next mission, though it hasn't reached the execution phase yet.事关我的下一个任务,不过,还没有到执行的阶段。

CheyanneIf you have time, please help me with some preliminary preparations, w-would you?如果您有时间,请您协助我完成一些前期准备工作,可、可以吗?

(Cheyanne finishes speaking and looks at me expectantly. Even if she hasn't relaxed completely, at least she's gathered her courage.)(夏安说完了,眼巴巴地盯着我看。即使无法放松下来,至少她鼓起了勇气。)

(I know that she would be deeply upset if I refuse her here. I should give her some encouragement.)(我想,要是在这里拒绝她,大概她会大受打击吧。我应该给她一些鼓励。)

CommanderOf course. I'll find some time in the next few days to come see you.当然,我这几天抽空去找你。

(Cheyanne breathes a sigh of relief. Her flushed face softens into a faint smile.)(肯定的答复让夏安松了口气,羞红的脸也带上了浅浅的笑容。)

CheyanneGreat! Then... it is agreed. I will be awaiting your visit.嗯!那……说好了,我会恭候您的光临。

CommanderYou don't have to be such a stranger with me. Now let's go. We should head back.不用和我客气。走吧,我们先回家。

(Groza and Colphne have already walked ahead. I give Cheyanne a little smile, take her hand, and quicken my pace to catch up with them.)(不远处,闪电和寇尔芙已经走出了一段距离。我笑了笑,拉起夏安,加快脚步走向她们。)

CommanderCheyanne, are you in?夏安,在吗?

CheyannePlease come in, Commander. Sit wherever you'd like. I'm so glad you remembered my invitation.请进,指挥官,您随意坐吧。太好了,您真的还记得我的邀请。

CheyanneWhat would you like to drink, Commander?指挥官喝点什么呢?

CommanderHm? What are the options?嗯?有什么可以选择?

CheyanneThere's black tea, juice, coffee, milk, fruit tea, ginger tea, hot cocoa, and green tea... Ah, I've also added soy milk and vegetable juice to my arsenal. If you're willing to wait a little, I could also whip up some sweet rice wine or mulled wine...有红茶、果汁、咖啡、牛奶、水果茶、姜茶、热可可、绿茶……啊,还增加了豆浆和蔬菜汁。如果您愿意等我煮一下,甜酒酿和热红酒也……

CommanderAlright, alright—I can see that you've learned to make even more beverages... Coffee will do.好了好了,你会做的饮品变得更多了……咖啡就行。

CheyanneUnderstood. Would you like milk?好的。要加牛奶吗?

Cheyanne...Well, actually, I've recently improved my latte art and would like to show you.……呃,其实,我最近精进了咖啡拉花,想展示给您看看。

CheyanneIf you prefer your coffee without milk, I can make one for myself instead. That way, you can still see my latte art.如果您不喜欢牛奶,那我可以做一杯自己喝吗?这样,您也可以看见我的拉花了。

CommanderThen add milk to mine too.就给我加奶的吧。

CommanderWhen did you learn all these skills? It feels like you can do everything.你这些技能都是什么时候学的?感觉你什么都会。

CheyanneMy work at NOMFA wasn't busy at all. When there were no missions, I'd spend my time learning and improving on these interesting skills.在管理局的工作很清闲,没有任务的时候,我会学习和精进这些有趣的技能。

Commander...If I remember correctly, your work at NOMFA involved weapon testing?……我记得你在管理局的工作是测试武器?

CheyanneYes. New sniper rifles were handed to me for performance testing before entering mass production.是哦,进入量产阶段之前的新型狙击枪,会交给我来测试性能。

CheyanneNew weapons don't come along every day, so when I was free, I also trained new snipers as an instructor.不是每天都有新武器能送来测试,所以,无事时我也会担任新人的狙击训练教官。

CommanderI'd like to see you teach someday. I'm sure you make a very trustworthy instructor.真想看看你当教官指导新人的样子。以你的性格,应该会成为学员们非常信任的老师。

CheyanneY-you flatter me. It's just an ordinary job...过、过奖了。只是平平无奇的二线工作罢了……

CheyanneOh, Commander, could you tell me your favorite foods and drinks? I still have data from a long time ago, but your tastes may have changed. I'd like to understand the current you better.对了,指挥官可以告诉我您最喜欢的饮料和食物吗?虽然保留了很久以前的数据,不过或许现在您的口味又有了变化,我想更多地了解现在的您。

CommanderNo problem. You can send me a questionnaire later with the details you need.没问题,具体需要哪些内容,之后你可以给我发问卷。

CheyanneThank you very much... Ah, your coffee is ready. Please enjoy.非常感谢……啊,您的咖啡好了,请用吧。

CheyanneIt's a bit hot. Be careful.有点烫,小心哦。

CommanderThanks.多谢。

(Cheyanne places the steaming coffee in front of me. The latte art on top is a Dinergate mid-leap; it looks very lively.)(夏安将热腾腾的咖啡端到我的手边,上面的拉花是一只蹦在半空中的兵蚁,姿势非常欢快。)

CommanderHaha, such cute latte art. A cheerful little Dinergate.哈哈,这拉花很有趣,是一只快乐的兵蚁。

CheyanneI'm happy to see you, so the latte art is happy too.见到您很开心,所以拉花也开心起来了。

CommanderMm, I can feel that.嗯,我感受到你的心情了。

CommanderCheyanne, you've improved a lot in communication lately. You seem more relaxed too... At this rate, you'll soon be ready for negotiation-type missions?夏安,最近的你在沟通上进步很大嘛,看起来也放松多了……这样下去,很快就可以派你去完成谈判类的任务了?

CheyanneUm, I'd rather not handle negotiations. Compared to being the center of attention, I'm more suited to staying in unnoticed corners.呃,谈判还是不了。比起成为人们视线的焦点,我更适合待在无人注意的角落里。

CheyanneHowever, I've seriously considered your previous suggestion. At least when I'm by your side, I'll try to be more direct.不过,我有认真考虑指挥官先前的建议。至少在您身边,我会努力表现得更直接一点。

CommanderKeep it up like that. It's good. Take it step by step.就这样保持下去吧,挺好的,慢慢来。

Cheyanne...Okay!……嗯!

CheyanneThen I'll cut straight to the chase. Commander, I'd like to introduce my next mission...那么,进入正题吧。指挥官,我想向您介绍我的下一个任务……

CheyanneIf this mission proceeds smoothly, there should be no direct conflict throughout.这次的任务如果能够顺利推进,全程应该不会发生任何正面冲突。

CommanderWhat do you need me to do?需要我做什么?

CheyanneWe need to infiltrate the rehearsal of a large-scale event. I will gather intelligence there for the client.我们要混入某个大型活动的彩排现场,我会在那里收集一些雇主想要的情报。

CheyanneTo allow for disguise and flexible movement, I'd like us to attend as a pair of photographer and model...在便于乔装,同时行动较为自由的身份中,我想选择摄影师和模特的身份组合……

CheyanneCould I trouble you to play my model?可以麻烦指挥官扮演我的模特吗?

CommanderHm? Being a professional model is quite difficult. Can I really do it?嗯?专业模特还是挺难的吧,我可以吗?

CheyanneYou certainly have the physical attributes for it.您的身体条件绝对可以。

CheyanneYou just need to practice facing the camera naturally and striking confident poses—that's the main reason I invited you here today. We... need some practice.只是还需要练习如何更自然地面对镜头,以及摆出很有气势的姿势——这就是今天邀请您前来的主要原因。我们……需要一些练习。

CommanderI understand. Then let's begin.我明白了,那我们就开始吧。

CommanderUm... first, what kind of pose counts as confident?呃……首先,很有气势的姿势是什么姿势?

CheyanneI will demonstrate some poses and guide you in imitating them...我会进行示范,引导您模仿……

CheyanneC-confident... I can do it. I'll be fine.气、气势……我可以,我没问题的。

(As if encouraging herself, Cheyanne nods seriously.)(仿佛是为了给自己加油打气,夏安认真地点了点头。)

CheyanneCommander, please look here. This is the lens. During the actual shoot, I'll be behind the camera guiding you.指挥官请看,这里是镜头。实际拍摄时,我会在相机后进行拍摄引导。

CheyanneAs for poses... p-please use these as references...至于姿势……请、请参考我的……

(Cheyanne stands ramrod straight, places one hand on her hip, then looks at me with a serious expression.)(夏安僵硬地挺直身体,单手叉腰,然后一本正经地看向我。)

CheyanneFor example... like this...比如这样……

(She then switches poses, crossing her arms and looking at me seriously again.)(随后她切换了姿势,双手抱胸,再次严肃地看向我。)

CheyanneWhat... do you think...?您觉得……怎、怎么样?

CommanderMm...?唔……?

CommanderWell... it's definitely confident. Your gaze and presence feel quite intense... ha, haha...呃,确实很有气势,不管是眼神还是气氛都凝重起来了……哈,哈哈……

(Perhaps sensing how forced my smile is, this time my encouragement fails to lift Cheyanne's spirits.)(或许是听出了我笑容中的勉强,这一次,我的鼓励并没能让夏安打起精神。)

(Cheyanne stops her demonstration, looking a bit dejected.)(夏安暂停了演示,有些垂头丧气。)

CheyanneNo, this isn't right.不对,不该是这样的。

CheyanneEven though my neural cloud issues the command to "relax", I can't do it at all. I'll guide you? That was just an ineffective display...即使心智发出了“放松”的指令,我也根本做不到。说什么引导指挥官,这根本就是无效展示……

CheyanneCommander, I'm sorry, right now I...指挥官,很抱歉,我现在……

(Cheyanne walks past me, quietly dives onto her bed, and buries herself under the covers.)(夏安越过我,默默地扑上她的床铺,将自己藏进了被窝里。)

CommanderAre you tired? Do you want to rest for a while?你累了?要休息一会儿吗?

CommanderWe can continue another day.我们可以改天再继续的。

(One hand reaches out from under the blanket, silently tugging at the corner of my clothes.)(一只手从被窝里伸出来,无声地拽住我的衣角。)

Commander...Alright, I'll stay here with you for a bit.……好吧,我在这里陪你坐一会儿。

CommanderOr do you need to let your emotions out?或者,你需要把情绪宣泄出来吗?

(I poke Cheyanne lightly through the blanket. She shrinks further inside, pulling me along with the fabric.)(我隔着被子戳了戳夏安,被窝里夏安只是缩了缩,藏得更深,顺便将我的衣角也拖得更深。)

CommanderIf you pull any harder, I won't have clothes left to wear.再拽下去我可就没有衣服穿了。

(The pulling stops. After a moment, Cheyanne's flushed face peeks out from the blanket.)(将我的衣角往里拖拽的力道止住了。片刻之后,夏安红红的脸从被子卷里冒出来。)

CheyanneC-Commander...指、指挥官……

CheyanneCould you give me a few minutes? Don't worry, I-I-I will pull myself together.可以再给我几分钟吗?不用担心,我我我可以自己调节好。

CommanderDon't push yourself too hard.别太勉强自己了。

CheyanneMm...唔……

(Cheyanne turns the top of her head toward me.)(夏安只将头顶对着我。)

(I gently pat the blanket-wrapped Cheyanne, trying to help her relax.)(我轻拍着包裹夏安的被子卷,试图让她放松一点。)

CommanderHonestly, being a model probably isn't that hard. As long as I keep a straight face and act confidently, people won't bat an eye at even the more unusual poses.我觉得吧,当模特应该也没那么难。只要面无表情、理直气壮地做出动作,就算是不太常规的姿势,观众也只会觉得“他一定有他的道理”。

CommanderSo don't be too harsh on yourself. It will already be pretty impressive if you can train a "model" to keep up the act in such a short time. And our ultimate goal... is just to stay undercover, right?所以你也不必对自己过于苛刻,短期集训出的“模特”能不被揭穿就很厉害了。而我们的最终目的……只要不被揭穿就够用了,对不对?

CommanderIf needed, I can also study up a little myself... I don't mind at all.实在不行,我自己了解一下,学习一下……也、也没问题的。

CheyanneYou're right.您说得对。

(Cheyanne suddenly sits up, shaking off her blanket like a bird spreading its wings.)(夏安忽然坐起身,像是小鸟抖开翅膀一般抖开她的小被子。)

(She releases the corner of my coat, and the blanket suddenly covers my vision at the same time. The lingering warmth of her body and a fresh scent fill the air.)(她松开了我的衣角,与此同时,被子突然笼罩了我的视野,夏安身体的余温和清爽的香气扑面而来。)

(A gentle force pulls me closer, and I instinctively lean toward her.)(我被一股轻柔的拉力拽住,下意识地靠向夏安。)

Commander...Huh? Cheyanne?……呃?夏安?

(When I come back to my senses, Cheyanne has already wrapped her arms and legs around me, naturally resting her head against my chest.)(等我回过神,夏安的双手双脚已经缠在了我身上,此刻,她已经极其自然地将脑袋贴上我的胸口。)

CheyanneYou're right.您说得对。

Cheyanne...I was too nervous. I almost forgot our primary objective.……我太过紧张,差点都要忘记我们的初衷了。

CheyanneCommander, thank you for the reminder.指挥官,谢谢您的点拨。

CommanderI'm glad you figured it out. No need to thank me.你能想通就好,不客气。

CheyanneHm... Commander, your heartbeat... seems to help me calm down faster. Why is that...?咦……指挥官,您的心跳好像……能让我更快地冷静下来,这是为什么呢……

Commander...Maybe because you trust me?……嗯……因为你相信我?

CheyanneAh, I see.啊,是这样呀。

CheyanneThen... could you maintain this position for a little longer?那……可以请您再保持这个姿势一段时间吗?

CheyanneThat way, I'll recover quickly...这样,我一定很快就好了……

CommanderIf you need it, of course you can.如果你需要,当然可以。

(I gently pat the back of Cheyanne's head. In response, she lightly nuzzles against my hand.)(我安抚地拍了拍夏安的后脑勺。作为回应,夏安轻轻蹭了蹭我的手。)

(After a long while—long enough that I start to feel drowsy—Cheyanne finally kicks off the blanket and sits up again.)(不知过了多久,久到我有些昏昏欲睡的时候,夏安终于踢开被子,重新坐起来。)

CheyanneCommander, I'm ready.指挥官,我准备好了。

CheyanneLet's try the modeling practice... one more time.模特的练习……我们再来一次吧。

(Cheyanne still looks a bit like she's bracing herself for something difficult, but her movements are much more relaxed.)(夏安的表情仍然带着一丝英勇就义般的勉强,但动作舒展了不少。)

(Under Cheyanne's guidance, my movements begin to carry some of the poise I associate with professional models.)(在夏安的指导下,我的动作也有了几分我印象中的模特们的气势。)

Cheyanne...Phew...……呼……

CheyanneThat should be about enough. Commander, shall we stop here for today?好像差不多了,指挥官,今天就到这里结束吧?

CommanderSure. I should return to the ops room to work.可以,我也该回指挥室工作了。

CommanderRemember to send me the exact time for the mission.具体执行任务的时间,记得发给我。

(I walk toward the door of Cheyanne's quarters.)(我走向夏安的休息室门外。)

CheyanneOkay. Shall I escort you back, Commander?好的。指挥官,我送您回指挥室吧?

CommanderThere's no need for that. I'll head back on my own.不用了,我自己回去就好。

CheyanneThen...那……

(Cheyanne carefully steps closer and wraps her arms around me. The embrace is warmer than I expected.)(夏安小心翼翼地凑近,张开双臂抱住我,这是一个比我想象中更温暖的拥抱。)

CommanderDon't want me to leave?舍不得我走?

CheyanneMm... there's that, and I'd also like to express my gratitude.嗯……是不舍,也是感谢。

CheyanneThank you, Commander. I'm very happy. See you later.指挥官,谢谢您,我很开心,再见哦。

(After a period of practice, Cheyanne and I gradually develop some great teamwork, performing almost like a professional photographer-model duo. Cheyanne decides to proceed with the mission and shows me the event invitation.)(经过一段时间的双人练习后,我和夏安的配合逐渐默契,表现与专业的摄影搭档相差无几。夏安决定推进任务,向我展示了任务所需的活动邀请函。)

(The event is scheduled for today. Cheyanne and I have already arrived at the venue.)(邀请函所示的活动时间就在今天。现在,我和夏安早已到达活动的现场。)

CheyannePlease look here!请您看这里!

(I follow Cheyanne's instructions, just as we've rehearsed.)(我依照先前练习的状态,配合夏安的引导。)

(The shutter clicks rapidly. Then Cheyanne lifts her head from behind the camera and nods at me seriously.)(快门声密集地响起,随后,夏安从设备后抬起头,认真地向我点点头。)

CommanderDone?搞定了?

CheyanneYep! Our practice paid off; your performance is excellent.嗯!我们的练习没有白费,您的表现力很棒。

CheyanneThe organizers have invited many people. The crowd is denser than expected, which works in our favor.主办方邀请了很多人呢,人员比预想中更密集,对我们非常有利。

(At this moment, someone passes between us. Cheyanne steps forward and takes my hand.)(此时,有人从我和夏安之间穿过。夏安上前两步,拉住我的手。)

CommanderThen let's seize the opportunity and get the job done.那就把握住机会,一次成功。

CheyanneRight!嗯!

(People move constantly across the stage area. Cheyanne has to raise her voice so it won't be drowned out by the surrounding noise.)(台前人来人往,夏安不得不提高音量,以免她小小的声音被周围的杂音盖住。)

(Unfortunately, her effort has little effect. A group of staff escorts someone past and the noisy chatter instantly drowns out her voice. I can only see her lips moving.)(可惜,她的努力收效甚微。有人被一群工作人员簇拥着路过,嘈杂的人声瞬间盖住了夏安的声音,我只能看见她的嘴一张一合。)

(Cheyanne taps me and gestures for me to lean in closer.)(夏安拍拍我,招手示意我低头凑近她。)

CheyanneCommander, the target should be backstage. I'll go in alone. Please wait here.指挥官,目标应该在后台。我独自进入就好,请您稍等一下。

CommanderAre you sure you don't want me to go with you?不需要我陪你一起吗?

(Cheyanne looks at me and shakes her head.)(夏安看着我,摇了摇头。)

CheyanneIf my cover is blown, you'll still have a chance to continue the mission.万一我的行动暴露,您还有机会继续这个任务。

CheyanneCommander, staying here makes you my backup.指挥官,您留在这里,就是我的后盾。

CommanderUnderstood. Go ahead.我明白了,你去吧。

(Cheyanne thinks for a moment, then rises on her toes and gives me a quick hug before turning toward backstage.)(夏安想了想,踮起脚快速抱了抱我,转身走向后台。)

(After a long while, Cheyanne finally returns.)(过了许久,夏安才回来。)

CheyanneThe intel has been gathered successfully.情报录入成功。

CheyanneCommander, thanks to you, the main objective has been completed smoothly.指挥官,多亏了您,最主要的任务顺利完成了。

CommanderGood. What next? There's still some time before the event ends, right?很好。接下来怎么办?距离活动结束还有一段时间吧?

CheyanneLeaving midway would attract too much attention. It's better to wait until the end and withdraw with the crowd.中途退场过于引人注目,还是等到活动结束,再安稳地随着人流撤退吧。

CheyanneAs for now... um...至于现在……唔……

CheyanneCommander, should we just stay in character till the end? It's a rare opportunity... I mean, for the sake of completing the mission smoothly... Um, of course, I-I'm also looking forward to...指挥官,要将这套身份贯彻到底吗?难得有这样的机会……不,为了任务能顺利地结束……呃,当然我、我也十分期待……

(Seeing that she's starting to get nervous again, I quickly stop her from rambling.)(眼看着夏安自己紧张起来了,我连忙阻止她继续劝说。)

CommanderI get it. So I should just keep playing your model?我知道了,总之,继续扮演你的模特就好?

CheyanneYes, please!嗯!

(Cheyanne's expression brightens immediately.)(夏安的表情顿时变得明朗。)

CheyanneThen, Commander, please come over here. The lighting here is very good!那么,指挥官。来这里吧,这里的光线非常不错!

CheyanneAlright!好了!

CheyanneAh, this background is quite unique too. This time you don't have to look at the camera!啊,这里的布景也很特别,这次不看镜头也可以哦!

CheyannePerfect!很完美!

CheyanneAnd over here...还有这里……

Cheyanne...That backdrop over there looks good too...……那边的背景板也不错……

(At some point, Cheyanne is no longer satisfied with just pointing the way. She holds onto my arm and personally pulls me from one shooting spot to another.)(不知何时开始,夏安已经不再满足于指路,而是抱着我的手,亲自拉着我走向不同的拍摄点位。)

(Perhaps because she truly enjoys photography, her eyes sparkle as they faintly reflect my figure on their surface.)(或许是对摄影充满了兴趣,她的双眼闪闪发光,其中隐约映着我的身影。)

CommanderYou're really serious about this. You really do like taking photos.非常认真呢,你果然很喜欢拍照。

CheyanneWould you like to see the results, Commander?成片效果,指挥官要看一下吗?

(Cheyanne adjusts the camera screen and shows me our shots.)(夏安调整了相机屏幕,向我展示我们的成果。)

CommanderOh, these look amazing. They're practically magazine-worthy.哦哦,真是大片呢。

CommanderVery professional work. Hardly any wasted shots. As expected of you, Cheyanne!很专业的拍摄,几乎没有废片。不愧是你,夏安!

(Under my repeated praise, Cheyanne's face gradually turns red.)(夏安在我的声声赞美中逐渐涨红了脸。)

CheyanneCommander... even if my tolerance has improved a little, if you keep praising me like this, I...指挥官……就算我的承受能力略有一些长进,您再这样夸奖下去我也会……

CheyanneI won't be able to handle it...受不了的……

CheyanneMy frame... is overheating... please don't keep praising me.素体……要过热了……请您别再继续夸我了。

CommanderHahaha. You'll get used to being praised eventually. Our Cheyanne has so many skills—each one deserves praise.哈哈哈,你可以更加习惯被夸奖的。我们夏安有这么多技能,每个技能都值得夸奖。

(I pat Cheyanne's head. It really does feel warmer than normal.)(我摸了摸夏安的脑袋,确实比正常的温度要高上不少。)

CommanderOr... you don't like me praising you?难道说,你不喜欢……我夸你吗?

Cheyanne...That's absolutely not the case!……绝对不是!

CheyanneBeing praised by you... makes me... i-i-incredibly happy.被您夸赞……是我……最、最高兴的事情。

(Cheyanne's voice trails off, growing quieter as she becomes shy again.)(夏安的辩驳逐渐变得小声,似乎又害羞起来了。)

CheyanneAlso... it's not just praise... I... um...还有,不仅是夸奖……我……呃……

CommanderIt's fine. Just say whatever you want.没关系,你想说什么就说吧。

CheyanneCommander! ...A-actually, I've taken a lot of photos of you...指挥官!……其、其实,我拍了很多关于您的照片……

(It seems Cheyanne has finally made up her mind. She fiddles with the camera and shows me the preview again. Besides today's shots, there are also...)(夏安似乎终于下定了决心,她摆弄了一下相机,重新向我展示预览照片。除了这次拍摄的部分,还有……)

CheyannePhotos from when we practiced in my room...之前在休息室里练习的时候拍到的指挥官……

CheyanneFrom the amusement park...还有游乐园的时候……

CheyanneFrom when we went to the underground broker to transport goods...一起去暗商那里运货的时候……

CommanderYou've really captured every little moment.还真是把点点滴滴都拍下来了啊。

CommanderI didn't even notice when you took some of them, haha.这几张,我都没注意你什么时候拍的,哈哈哈。

CheyanneCommander, I didn't mean to secretly take photos of you... or to keep them!指挥官,我不是故意偷拍……呃,保存下这些照片的!

CheyanneFor some reason, whenever I look back at these images of you, I feel a sense of happiness and ease in my neural cloud. I can't bear to delete any image that has you in it.不知为何,当我复看这些关于您的影像时,我的心智中就会涌现起很幸福、很轻松的感觉。这样的我根本舍不得删除任何有您的画面。

CheyanneCommander... would you blame me... for taking these photos without telling you?指挥官……会责怪我……偷偷拍摄吗?

(Cheyanne seems deeply concerned about my answer. She looks so nervous she might cry.)(夏安似乎非常在意这个答案,她看上去紧张得快要哭了。)

CommanderOf course not.当然不会。

CommanderLook, you've taken great photos of me. Every one of them could be a profile picture.你看,你把我拍得很好呀,每张都可以当社交平台的头像。

Cheyanne...Phew... thank you for being so easy-going.……呼……谢谢您的宽容。

CheyanneI've always wanted to tell you about this, so these photos could exist openly. Because I really want to keep them.我一直想找机会告诉您这件事,让这些照片变得堂堂正正,因为我真的很想留下它们。

CheyanneYou have so many important duties, Commander. You can't always accompany me on these ordinary missions. But when I can't see you, I miss you very, very much. Having your photos feels like you're always by my side.指挥官有很多重要的工作,不能一直陪着我做这些普通的任务。可是如果见不到您,我会非常、非常想念您的。有您的照片在,就像您一直陪着我一样了。

CommanderThen make sure you keep them safe.那就好好保存它们吧。

CheyanneOf course!当然!

CheyanneI will carefully preserve and engrave them—and everything related to you—into the deepest layer of my neural cloud.它们……还有和您有关的一切情报,我都会好好珍藏,刻进心智底层数据中的。

CheyanneBecause I carry these parts of you within me, when I face missions that seem almost impossible, I have the courage to confront those challenges... as well as the determination and perseverance not to give up... just like you...正是因为我的心智中保存着这些关于您的部分,当我面对几乎不可能的任务时,我才、才有勇气面对那些挑战……还有像您一样……坚定的决心,不放弃的毅力……

CommanderI understand. If that gives you strength, then I'm glad.我知道了,如果这能成为你的力量,那我也很开心。

(Cheyanne nods firmly, her face still flushed. Seeing her like this, I can't help teasing her again.)(夏安脸红红地用力点头。看着她的样子,我忍不住想要逗一下她。)

CommanderBy the way, do I get any extra compensation for being your model?对了,我当你的模特有什么额外的报酬吗?

Cheyanne...Huh? Extra... compensation...……诶?额外的……

(Cheyanne seems to think of something suddenly. Her frame temperature appears to be on the rise again—I can almost hear her cooling system working harder.)(不知夏安突然想到了什么,她的素体似乎再次开始升温了,我几乎能听见冷却组件加大功率运转的轻微噪音。)

(I start to worry she might actually crash here.)(我开始担心她真的在这里宕机。)

CommanderAlright, alright. If you haven't thought of anything yet, you can take your time and decide after we go back.好了好了,现在没想好也没关系,等回去以后再慢慢想吧?

Cheyanne...No. Today is a rare opportunity...……不,今天是难得的机会……

(Steeling herself for what she's about to do, Cheyanne grabs my hand and pulls me straight toward backstage.)(仿佛是忽然下定了决心,夏安拉起我,直奔后台。)

CommanderHm? Where are we going?嗯?这是要去哪?

Cheyanne...The lounge.……休息室。

(As she answers, we step into a small, empty room.)(在她回应我的同时,我们也进入了一个空无一人的小型休息室。)

(Cheyanne shuts the door with a bang.)(砰的一声,夏安关上了门。)

CheyanneC-Commander!指、指挥官!

Cheyanne...I've thought of the compensation...……酬劳,我想到了……

CheyanneIt might be a little unfair... It feels like I'm rewarding myself too...虽然这有些狡猾,好像……也奖励了我自己……

(Cheyanne's flushed face moves closer and closer. My breathing unconsciously stills.)(夏安红红的脸凑近我,越来越近,我的呼吸无意识地暂停。)

(Then she rises slightly on her toes. A soft, fleeting touch lands on the side of my face, light as a dragonfly skimming water.)(然后,她轻轻蹦了蹦,柔软的触感像是蜻蜓点水般,在我脸侧化开。)

(It's a very light, feather-like kiss that leaves a faint tickling warmth.)(是一个很轻很轻的,羽毛般让人心痒的吻。)

CheyanneI-I can't... I've reached my temperature limit...不、不行了……已经到了……温度的极限了。

CheyanneI wanted to get even closer, but if I shut down, it would cause you trouble... I'll have to try again next time...明明想要再亲近一点的,但要是宕机的话又会给您添麻烦,只能下次再努力了吗……

CheyanneCommander, p-please make sure to give me another chance like this!指挥官,请、请务必要再给我这样的机会!

Cheyanne...Huh? Why does even making such a simple request... make me this hot...……诶?为什么只是这样的请求也……变得好热……

(Cheyanne looks like she's about to start putting out steam. I cup her warm face and pat it lightly, reminding her not to crash here.)(夏安的脑袋几乎快要冒烟了。我捧起她热乎的脸蛋拍了拍,提醒她别在这里宕机。)

CheyanneMm...唔……

(That seems to clear her head a bit.)(我的提醒让夏安勉强找回了一丝清明。)

CheyanneRight, the mission isn't over yet. I can't...是的,任务还没有结束。我不能在这里……

CheyanneI... ugh... I'm so nervous...我……呜……好紧张……

CommanderTake it slow. There's plenty of time.慢慢来,来日方长。

CommanderYou've already done very well.现在的你已经做得很好了。

(Cheyanne presses her flushed face against my neck and gives a soft response.)(夏安将烧红的脸贴到我的颈侧,轻轻应了一声。)

CheyanneMm... plenty of time.嗯,来日方长。

CheyanneAre you sure... this is really okay?您确定这样……真的可以吗?

CheyanneThere are clearly many Dolls stronger than me waiting for you. Why would you choose someone as plain and ordinary as me?明明还有很多比我更强大的人形在等着您,为什么会选中平平无奇的我呢?

CheyanneI don't quite understand what you said earlier... Does it mean I can stay by your side... all the time?关于您说的事,我还不太明白,是“可以一直待在您的身边”……的意思?

CheyanneJust thinking about it makes my head feel so hot... I can't think clearly at all.糟糕,光是想到这一点,脑袋就变得好热……都没有办法好好地思考了。

CheyanneI feel... very happy... I can honestly say I've never been this happy before...我好像……非常开心……可以说,从来没有这么开心过……

CheyanneUm, anyway, of course I'd be happy to!呃,总之,我当然愿意!

Ever-Present Feeling 形影不离

CommanderCheyanne, what are you recording now?夏安,又在记录什么?

CheyanneMm, I've noticed some of your little habits.嗯,我发现了您的一些小习惯。

CheyanneIt might be a bit presumptuous to say this, but I find them very cute... I want to record them.虽然这么说有些不敬,不过,很可爱……想要记下来。

(There are subtle changes in Cheyanne's pupils when she is writing complex data. It's hard for others to notice—I only began to see it after growing closer to her.)(写入复杂数据的时候,夏安的瞳孔会出现一些细微的变化。旁人难以注意,我也是在与她逐渐亲密之后留意观察,才能发现。)

CommanderDo I really have that many habits? It feels like you find something new to record every day.我的习惯有这么多吗?好像你每天都有可以记下来的东西。

CheyanneThat's because I've been constantly by your side these days...因为最近一直在您身边吧……

(Cheyanne leans closer and gently rubs her head against my arm.)(夏安凑近我,用脑袋蹭了蹭我的手臂。)

CheyanneEverything about you feels new to me, Commander. I want to carefully learn everything about you.指挥官的全部,对我来说都很有新鲜感,我想好好地学习关于您的一切。

CheyanneNot just your favorite foods, your coffee preferences, your daily schedule, but also your little gestures when thinking, your expressions when you smell different scents...不仅仅只是您喜欢的食物,咖啡的口味,日程安排的节奏,还有思考时的小动作,闻到不同香味的表情……

CommanderHm? Even I haven't noticed those...嗯?我自己都没有注意到……

CommanderCan I see what you've recorded?可以看看你记录的成果吗?

CheyanneOf course.可以哦。

Cheyanne...Ah, the amount of data is too large. You can review it yourself during my next maintenance.……啊,涉及的数据量太大,等到下次检修的时候,您再亲自确认吧。

CheyanneBut I'm starting to feel a bit more confident. If you ever need a "stand-in", I might be the best candidate...不过,稍微有了一点信心。如果指挥官哪天需要“替身”,我可能会是最适合的人选……

CommanderHahaha, I see. You really have learned quite a lot.哈哈哈,我知道了。看来你是真的了解了不少。

CheyanneIt's still not enough.还不够吧。

CheyanneI spent too long away from your side. There's a past I never got to touch... I've already missed out on so much, which is why I treasure the present even more.不在您身边的日子太久了,还有没能来得及触碰的过去……我已经错过了很多,所以才更加珍惜现在。

CheyanneIf only I could get even closer. If I were just a bit closer, I could probably uncover even more "top-secret information" about you.要是能够再近一些就好了。再近一点,应该还能发现更多关于您的绝密情报吧?

CommanderWe're already joined at the hip, aren't we?我们现在已经贴在一起了吧。

CheyanneWe can get even closer, no? Not to mention... the distance between our hearts?还有一些空隙吧?可以再紧一点……还有……心的距离?

Cheyanne...Mm, I don't really know what that is.……唔,我也不知道那是什么。

CheyanneFor now, I'll start with physical closeness, then feel out the rest...总之,先从身体的贴合开始,再感受心灵……

CommanderYour face is red again.你的脸又红了。

CheyanneIf I lower my head, you won't see it.只要低下头您就看不见了。

(Cheyanne looks down as she says this, but her pink ears give her away.)(夏安说着低下头,但粉红色的耳朵还是出卖了她。)

CommanderYour ears are red too.耳朵也红。

CheyanneAh, really? I'm trying to overcome my nervousness.啊,这样吗?我在努力地克服紧张感了。

CheyanneI'm overheating big time right now, but... I feel very happy.现在很热,不过……感觉很幸福。

(Cheyanne falls silent for a moment. The room grows quiet, but the atmosphere isn't awkward—only calm and peaceful.)(夏安沉默了片刻,室内安静下来,气氛并未变得尴尬,我只感到安稳和宁静。)

Cheyanne...Commander, can you hold me a little tighter...?……指挥官,可以抱得更紧一点吗……

Cheyanne...Thank you. I can feel it...……谢谢您,我感受到了……

CheyanneI want to become your shadow. That way, I could always be with you.好想成为您的影子,这样就能永远在一起了。

CommanderYou just have to keep being Cheyanne.夏安就做夏安就好。

Cheyanne...Okay...……嗯……

CheyanneThen can we stay like this a little longer?那再抱一会儿,可以吗?

Food Tasting 1 美食品尝1

The first taste astounds, immediately awakening slumbering taste buds.入口的惊艳,瞬间唤醒沉睡的味蕾。

CommanderEvery mouthful tastes like bliss.每一口都是幸福的味道。

CheyanneWere you looking for me, Commander? Ah, I'm honored. It's not that I'm unwilling, I'm just a little nervous.指挥官,您是来找我的?啊,我很荣幸。请别误会,没有不愿意,只是有点紧张。

About Her Work关于工作

About Photography关于摄影

About Her Hobbies关于兴趣

About Pets关于宠物

About Disguise关于变装

About Supplies关于补给

CheyanneInterested in the new weapons too, Commander?指挥官也对新款武器感兴趣吗?

CheyanneWhen I was still at the Non-Military Forces Administration, I did weapons testing, too. Most of it was new stock from weapons that were yet to go public. Dangerous job, that one.之前在非军事力量管理局的时候,我倒是做过武器测试的工作。那些武器大多是尚未公开的新产品。不过,有点危险。

CommanderAre they dangerous because of their safety flaws and lack of stability? Were you ever injured?是指稳定性和安全性缺陷吗?你有没有受过伤?

CheyanneThere were a few misfires here and there. It's no big deal, though. Dolls' parts can just be switched out if damaged.遇到过一两次炸膛事故。不过,没关系哦,人形的素体,即使受伤也可以更换。

CommanderYou always take photographic equipment with you, right? Have you gotten any interesting shots recently?你一直随身带着摄影器材吧?有拍到什么有趣的镜头吗?

CheyanneI just habitually record my daily life. I have no talent for humor, and I'd hardly call what I've taken interesting.只是习惯性地记录一下日常而已,我没什么幽默的天分,这些影像也说不上有趣吧。

CheyanneBut... even if it seems unremarkable in the moment, maybe one day they'll turn into precious memories that slip through our fingers.不过……虽然当时看来平平无奇,说不定哪一天就会变成一去不返的珍贵回忆。

CommanderYou should keep it somewhere safe, then.那就好好保存起来吧。

CommanderWhat do you do when there's no work on your hands?没有工作任务的时候,你会做什么?

CheyanneWhat I do in my own time? Catch up on firearms training, some photography, disguise, and... learning about unimportant things.属于自己的时间吗?狙击加训、摄影、变装,还有……学习不重要的知识。

CheyanneLogically, learning about those things is of limited value, but I can't help but be drawn by knowledge I'm not familiar with.虽然理智上了解它们的价值有限,但还是忍不住被未知的领域吸引。

CommanderThat sounds rather fulfilling, at least.也不错,听起来很充实。

CommanderCheyanne, are you a cat or a dog person?夏安是猫派还是狗派?

CheyanneIf I had to pick between the two, cats. Puppies are cute and all, but I'm allergic to beings that are too friendly to people.一定要二选一的话,猫吧。小狗很可爱,但我对过于粘人的生物过敏。

CommanderBut you're not a fan of either of them, judging by your tone?听你的语气,其实猫和狗你都不怎么感兴趣?

CheyanneWell... a Doll like me might just not have the ability to take responsibility for a life. I'm worried I won't be able to do them right.唔……我这样的人形,可能还没有能力承担起抚养生命的责任,我担心无法对它们负责到底。

CheyanneRather than humanoid disguises, I prefer turning into unassuming objects.其实比起类人的变装,我更喜欢变成不起眼的物件。

CommanderSuch as?比如说?

CheyanneHm... if possible, garbage bins, roadside lamps, and trees. Those are good. I'd like to try a Dinergate someday, too.嗯……如果可以的话,垃圾桶、路灯、树都不错,有机会也想试试兵蚁。

CheyanneAccording to the anonymous boards, they're infamous for their poor adaptability to modifications, but I wonder if it's really that bad...匿名版上,兵蚁的变装适配风评很糟糕,但我好奇,真有那么糟吗……

CommanderI noticed that you stash a lot of ammo in your dormitory. Is that a habit of yours?我发现你在个人休息室里囤积了不少弹药,这是你的习惯吗?

CheyanneYes, the ammo my imprinted weapon uses is rather special. Low-grade armories rarely have it in stock.嗯,我的烙印武器适配的弹药有点特殊,在较低级别的武器店中经常缺货。

CheyanneOut of caution, I stock up on ammunition just in case.所以,谨慎起见,我会尽量多囤积一些子弹,以防万一。

CommanderIt wouldn't be you without the meticulous planning.深思熟虑过了啊,不愧是你。

The wafting aroma enchants, carrying away every trace of my weariness.扑鼻的芬芳,顷刻带走满身的疲惫。

The flavors blooming upon my tongue delight, filling my body with warmth and happiness.舌尖的绽放,幸福的暖意随即拥抱全身。

Neural Migration - Silvered Whispers · 4 心智洄游·素银匿信·4

Read this chapter with voices →

(Large quantities of ELIDs are roaming this Level II layer. Among them, one Thoad seems to stand out.)(在大量生骸徘徊的二级平层中,有一只锤岩蟾蜍显得特别奇怪。)

(As simulated enemy units, they typically wander around specified areas.)(作为由程序模拟出来的敌方单位,它们往往只会在规定的范围内徘徊。)

(However, this particular Thoad seems to have passed through several different areas, like it has a purpose and a destination in mind.)(然而,眼前的个体却径直穿越了好几个区域,像是有目的似的朝着一个方向前进。)

Cheyanne...I'm approaching the target, but there's been a marked increase in the number of ELIDs around me.……正在接近目标,但周围生骸的数量比之前明显增多。

CheyanneIn order to ensure mission success, I would like to request route guidance.为了确保任务的成功,请给我路线的指示。

(The Thoad attempts to avoid coming into contact with the other ELIDs. When one of its kin approaches it, it immediately ducks into nearby niches and alcoves.)(它还会尽量避免与其他生骸相撞,当有同类迎面而来时,便会到旁边的角落暂且躲避。)

(And the one behind all these agile maneuvers is Cheyanne, who is disguised as a Thoad. Harpsy is currently guiding her along the most ideal path to her destination.)(而这一系列灵活动作的真相,是因为生骸的伪装者夏安,此时正接受着哈卜茜的引导,沿着最佳的路线前进。)

HarpsyWe could try Route A... But then you'd need to reach Area 2 within 3 minutes and 14 seconds.可以从A路线通过……需要在3分14秒内到达2号区域。

(Harpsy used the virus data she obtained before the battle to create an ELID simulacrum that looks just like the real thing.)(哈卜茜利用在之前战斗中获取到的病毒信息,打造了一个与生骸一模一样的虚拟外观。)

(Cheyanne used it to disguise herself as a Thoad and she has delved deep into the heart of the ELID swarm.)(负责操作外观的则是夏安,她此时变成了一只锤岩蟾蜍,混在生骸群中。)

Cheyanne3 minutes and 14 seconds... I'm sorry, but that's a pretty big ask. My legs aren't as long as they used to be in this form.3分14秒……抱歉,时间上有点勉强。 我的腿,现在走不快。

HarpsyHweh? Ah, I, uh, I'm sorry, then in that case... Please proceed via Route B. That ought to get you there more quickly.诶?对、对不起,那么……请改从B路线前进,应该会快一些。

CheyanneRoger that.了解。

(Cheyanne tries to move the Thoad's legs as fast as they can go, but it's still pitifully slow.)(夏安努力挪动自己的蟾蜍腿,但移动速度依然堪忧。)

(Her objective is a security lock on Level II. There are two such locations in this area, and both of them need to be opened to activate the server's logs.)(她的行动目标是二级平层内的安全锁,这样的锁在这片区域有两处,只有全部打开,才能启动服务器日志。)

(Robella's handling the other lock, and Harpsy's monitoring her side of things too.)(另一处的安全锁由洛贝拉负责,哈卜茜也在同时关注她的行动情况。)

(Harpsy apologizes to the two of them in her heart as she watches their signal pings move slowly across the map.)(看着两人的信号缓慢移动,哈卜茜感觉很抱歉。)

(If only she hadn't made a disguise out of a Thoad, but a speedy Rushbat instead...)(要是当时采集到的病毒不是来自于锤岩蟾蜍,而是行动更加迅速的奔蝠就好了。)

Harpsy...Um, you don't seem too happy about this, Cheyanne. I'm uh, I'm sorry if my plan is inconveniencing you.……那个,夏安你看起来不太开心。呜……是不是我的方案让你为难了。

CheyanneMe? Unhappy? Not at all.不开心?那倒没有。

CheyanneYour plan was a good one. There are too many ELIDs here, so since we can't eliminate them all, sneaking past them would be the wiser option.你的方案也是正确的,这里的生骸太多了,既然不能全部消灭,潜入作战便是合理的选项。

CheyanneThat said, while I've worn many disguises as an intelligence agent, disguising myself as an ELID is a first for me...只不过,虽然我作为情报员扮演过很多角色,但生骸确实是第一次……

HarpsyIs-is that so? But your expression...是、是吗?但是我看你的表情,好像不太高兴……

Cheyanne...That's just how my face is. Don't worry about it.……我的表情一直是这样的,还请您无视。

LoreleyMy, to think Cheyanne can keep her cool even when transformed into an ELID. That's a former top agent for you.哎呀,明明都变成了生骸的模样,夏安却依然能保持冷静,不愧是曾经的王牌情报员。

Cheyanne...I wouldn't dare call myself a top agent. I just practice a lot.……王牌不敢当,我只是比较熟练。

LoreleyWell, Robella's quite boisterous compared to you.与你的冷静相比,这边的洛贝拉可就很热闹了。

(In fact, a complaining voice is clearly audible through Loreley's comm channel—)(在与罗蕾莱的通信线路中,此时可以明显地听到抱怨声——)

RobellaWhy do I have to disguise myself as an ELID?!为什么要让我扮演生骸啊!

NikketaI'm truly sorry about this. I'd replace you if I could, but using a different body isn't easy...非常抱歉,如果可以,我也想替代你,但要操作不习惯的素体,并不是一件容易的事……

RobellaI should just kill myself! I've had enough of being a Dinergate or an ELID!让我自杀吧!不管是变成兵蚁还是生骸,我都受够了!

HarpsyBweh... Robella seems really upset about this...呜呜……洛贝拉好像很不情愿。

LoreleyHehe, well, she has experience controlling a Dinergate's body, so being an ELID shouldn't be too much different from that.呵呵,她有操作兵蚁的经验,感觉上操作生骸也差不多。

Nikketa...Loreley, please inform Harpsy that Robella's almost at the server log location.……罗蕾莱,告诉哈卜茜,洛贝拉已经要抵达服务器日志的地点了。

LoreleyGot it. See, Harpsy? She might have been complaining all the way, but she did the job in the end, didn't she?知道了。 你看,这不是一边抱怨,一边很有效率地完成了工作吗?

CheyanneI'm almost there too. On the final stretch.这边也快了,还有最后的一段路程。

(Harpsy gets nervous. She can imagine how all the surrounding ELIDs will notice them and attack the moment the log is activated.)(哈卜茜紧张了起来,可以预料到,一旦启动日志,周围的生骸也会注意到她们从而发起攻击。)

HarpsyPlease, um, please be ready for a fight. I can take part too if need be.请、请做好战斗准备,如果有需要,我也可以出战。

LoreleyIsn't your frame still undergoing maintenance? Just relax and leave it to us.你的素体不是还在调整吗?别担心,交给我们吧。

CheyanneMayling's environmental backdrop system is so realistic that I feel like I'm actually outdoors.美玲的环境幕布很有沉浸感,像在室外一样。

CheyanneBut having everyone surrounding me and watching me curiously is a little... well, it's a little disconcerting.但是,大家会好奇地围观我……有点,不好意思。

It'll be fine with just the two of us.两个人一起就好。

Just close your eyes.闭上眼睛就好。

CheyanneWill it? Wait a minute, Commander, do you mean...是吗?等等,指挥官的意思是……

CheyanneThen I'll, um, I'll go start a fire now... No, wait, that'll trigger the automatic sprinklers...那、那我现在就去生火……不不对,会触发喷淋系统……

CheyanneWell, that makes sense.有道理呢。

CheyanneCommander! Could you stay with me a little...?指挥官!可以陪我一下吗……

CommanderHm? Is there something the matter?嗯?是遇到什么问题了吗?

CheyanneI've decided to modify my frame, but I'm not sure what modules to focus on.虽然下定了决心要改装素体,但我还没有想好优先进行哪些模块的强化。

CheyanneA scout might come across just about any situation, after all. The gathering of intel, its storage and transmission... every single part of the cycle is important.毕竟,侦察员什么情况都有可能遇见,情报收集、存储、传递……每一环都很重要。

CommanderRemember to consider your own safety, too.嗯,别忘了还要考虑你自己的安全。

Cheyanne...Me?……我?

CheyanneOh, right. Modified frames are expensive, and I should be careful...对哦,改装过的素体价值不菲,我应该更加珍惜……

CommanderIt's not a matter of how much the frame costs. Even if it offers no real practical benefit, I still hope you'll place greater importance on your own feelings.不是素体费用的问题。即使没什么实际的好处,我也希望你能更重视自己的感受。

CheyanneUnderstood. I'll increase the budget for defense-related modules.了解,我会给防护相关的模块增加一些预算的。

CheyanneI don't really get it. What do you see in me... when I'm like this?虽然还不太明白,这样的我……有什么值得重视……

CommanderThat tone of yours... you seem to have some misunderstandings about yourself. Would you like to know what I think of you?这样的语气……你对自己好像有些误解,要听听我对你的评价吗?

CheyanneNow? Could you wait until my frame modifications are done? I'm a little scared...现在?可以等到我的素体改装完成之后吗?我有点害怕……

CommanderDon't worry, it's nothing negative.别担心,是好评。

CommanderTo me, you're stronger and much more important than you imagine. Your abilities are influential in the field, but I'd like you to value yourself more as a companion of mine, too.在我看来,你比你想象得要强大,也比你想象得更重要。你的能力,在作战任务中能发挥很大的作用,但作为同伴,我也希望你能好好珍惜自己。

CheyanneAh... a companion... u-understood! It's my honor...唔……同伴吗……遵、遵命!我很荣幸……

CheyanneI've always thought of myself as a very mundane Doll. The thought that you would look at me like this... never came across my mind.我以为我只是一个平平无奇的人形,从来没想过您会愿意……这样看待我……

CommanderI've been too sparing with praise in the past, then, for you to have these kinds of thoughts. I must do better in the future.看来,是过去的我吝于夸奖了,以至于你会有这样的想法。今后我也得多努力才行啊。

CheyanneT-thank you... I understand now. Do you have any advice for me on my frame modifications, Commander?谢、谢谢您……我明白了。那关于素体改装,指挥官有什么建议吗?

CommanderHm... what comes after is important, too, but I would prioritize enhancing frontline collection efficiency and accuracy while guaranteeing safety.嗯……虽说后续工作也很重要,我建议在保证安全的基础上,优先考虑提升一线采集效率和精度。

CheyanneFirst priority for upgrades are modules relevant to data collection, then.那么升级的首选目标就是数据收集相关的模块了。

CheyanneUnderstood. I'll send the request through to Mayling as soon as I can.我明白了,我会尽快向美玲申请的。

CheyanneThank you for the advice, Commander!指挥官,谢谢您的建议!

CommanderOff you go.去吧去吧。

CheyanneCommander, once the modifications are complete, could I ask you to evaluate my performance again?指挥官,等我完成改装后,可以再邀请您帮我评估表现吗?

Cheyanne...Your thoughts are very important to me.……您的评价,我很在意。

CommanderOf course. Come speak to me at any time.没问题,你随时可以来找我。

CheyanneCommander, my frame modifications are complete. There's a few new features that feel... not bad.指挥官,我的素体改装完成了,新增了一些功能……感觉……还不错。

CommanderOh? Show me your new abilities, then.哦?那就展示一下你的新能力吧。

CheyanneIf you don't mind, could I have you be my reconnaissance target?如果您不介意,我可以将您当成侦察目标吗?

CommanderSure, go ahead.没关系,来吧。

CheyanneFirst, visual precision has been enhanced. It now offers superior zoom at every range, from macro photography to exceptionally long distances.首先是提升了视觉精度,扩大了瞳孔的变焦范围,不管是微距还是超远距都没问题。

CheyanneIn addition to environmental intel, data collection on human targets has been optimized, too.除了环境情报之外,针对人类目标的数据采集功能也做了优化。

CheyanneFor example, with the current distance between us, I can see your iris and labial lines.举例来说,目前的距离下,我能看清您的虹膜和唇纹。

CommanderThat'll come in useful when identifying a mission target.挺好的,识别任务目标时应该很有用。

CheyanneRangefinding has been improved as well. The data is now far more precise.测距方面也做了一些优化,数据更精确了。

CheyanneYour height, limb dimensions, and other bodily measurements are plain to see for me.您的身高、腿长、臂长、身体围度,对我来说都显而易见呢。

CheyanneI can state with confidence that... no Doll possesses more knowledge or data about your body than I do.大言不惭地说……现在的我,可能是最了解您的身体数据的人形。

CommanderSounds like I can leave the tracking of my personal health to you, too.听起来以后健康方面的追踪也可以交给你了。

CheyanneReally? I'm happy to be of use to you...可以吗?能对您有些用处,我很高兴……

CheyanneOh, right. There's something that's been on my mind since just now... Excuse me, Commander.对了,从刚才开始我就有些在意……指挥官,失礼一下哦。

(Cheyanne gets closer to me, one step after another... Until she almost stuffs her face into my chest.)(夏安向我靠来,一步,两步……直到她的脸几乎撞进我怀里。)

CheyanneUwoa?! Sorry, sorry, Commander.唔哦?!对不起,对不起,指挥官。

CheyanneI'm not fully used to my new systems yet, and I get the distance between me and a target wrong sometimes. When I'm next to you... I seem to slip up a lot...我还没有完全适应新的系统,偶尔会错估我与目标之间的距离。在您身边的我……好像总是不够谨慎……

CheyanneCommander, are you alright? You're not hurt, are you?指挥官,您还好吗?没有受伤吧?

CommanderI'm alright, but you... how's your nose?我没事,倒是你……鼻子还好吗?

CheyanneIt's fine, I don't feel anything. Maybe the sensory modules shut down; they should restart shortly.挺好的,已经失去知觉了。可能是感受器宕机了吧,过一会儿就重启了。

CommanderOh, really? How about now?呃,是吗?现在呢?

(I blow lightly towards Cheyanne's nose.)(我向夏安的鼻尖吹了吹气。)

Cheyanne...Restart complete. It's incredible to feel your breathing so close.……重启完成了。能近距离感受到您的气息,真好。

CheyanneCommander, could you crouch down a bit lower?指挥官,您能再蹲下来一点吗?

CommanderWhat is it?怎么了?

CheyanneI want you to feel my... I mean that there's some dust on your eyelashes.您也需要一些我的气息……我是说,您的睫毛上有灰。

CheyanneThere, I've blown it off.现在好了,我吹掉了。

CommanderOh I see, thanks.原来如此,谢了。

CheyanneI should be the one saying thanks. I've wished all along to stay like this. I can see you, hear your voice, stand by you...该说感谢的是我。我一直以来的心愿就是像现在这样,能看清您,听见您的声音,站在您的身边……

CheyanneThanks for allowing me to stand here, Commander.指挥官,谢谢您允许我站在这里。

CheyanneAh, they're not-yet calibrated experimental functions. Would it not be too risky to try them on you?啊,那些是尚未完成调试的实验性功能,用在您身上是否有些过于冒险……

CommanderIt's alright, no need to be so concerned about me. Sometimes, when you think of the other party too much, you appear distant.没关系,不用太顾虑我。有时候太为对方着想,反而会显得生疏。

CheyanneEh? No, that's not my intention at all.咦?不不,我完全没有这样的意思。

CommanderI know. There's no need to be so courteous with me.我知道,所以不用对我太客气的。

CheyanneI suppose I can be a bit more daring if you say so.既然您都说到这个份上了,那我就稍微大胆一点。

CheyanneCommander, let's play a game. I'll ask a question, and you will answer. I'll guess whether you're being truthful or lying.指挥官,来玩个游戏吧。我提问,您回答,我会猜测您说的是真话还是假话。

CommanderSounds interesting. Let's do it.有点意思,开始吧。

CheyanneHm... ok, let's start with some daily things. Commander, on your way here, did you encounter any Dolls aside from me?唔……问题,就从您的日常生活开始。指挥官,您今天前来这里的途中,遇到除我之外的人形了吗?

CommanderNo.没有。

CheyanneYou're not being truthful, are you?您说的是假话吧?

CommanderI've been found out.被你发现了。

CheyanneI got it right? Ehe... next question. Are you happy with today's coffee?我猜对了?嘿嘿……下一个问题。您对今天的咖啡满意吗?

CommanderCoffee? It's quite nice. Very consistent flavor.咖啡?挺好的,口味很稳定。

CheyanneThat was the truth?这次是真的?

CommanderHuh, that function's pretty consistent. How does it work?呵,这个功能还挺准的。你是怎么办到的?

CheyanneI didn't do anything, it's just the hardware upgrades...我并没有做什么,只是硬件提升了而已……

CommanderIt's not just the hardware. Your patience in observing things and ability to analyze based on facts are your strengths. This hardware only works as well as it does because it's on you.不止是硬件,仔细观察事物的耐心、与真相关联的分析能力都是你的特长。这些硬件只有搭载在你身上,才能发挥出它们的作用。

CheyanneS-stop praising me, Commander, my frame's going to start burning... let's try a few more questions, okay?指挥官,别、别再夸我了,素体快要烫熟了……让我们再尝试几个问题吧?

CheyanneWhat could I do to make you happier? How strong would I have to be to shoulder your worries? Do you think I'm a burden? Do... do you like me?比如,我要怎么做才能让您更开心一点?我要变强到什么程度,才能为您分忧?您会不会觉得我是累赘?您……您喜、喜欢我吗?

CommanderThat's a few too many questions, let's take it slowly. Let's start from the first question. If you would just relax a little in front of me, I would be very happy.问题太多了,慢慢来,别急。先从第一个问题开始,只要你在我面前能放松一点,我就很开心了。

CheyanneRelax? But when I'm in front of you, listening to your voice, feeling your gaze, I just start getting nervous, and my frame heats up...放松?可是面对着您,听着您的声音,感受到您的注视,我就会紧张起来,素体的温度也会上升……

CheyanneI don't really get it, but when I feel nervous like that, I also feel safe. It's not the same as nerves under pressure, it's a more happy kind of nervousness.虽然还不太明白,但我的紧张中,也包含着安心的感觉,这和带来压力的紧张感不同,是幸福的紧张感呢。

CommanderYeah, I think I understand how you feel.嗯,我好像能理解你的感受。

CheyanneHehe... Then, Commander, could we hold hands? If we do, I think I would be a little happier, and a little less nervous.嘿嘿……那么,指挥官,要牵手吗?牵手的话,我的幸福会再多一点,紧张也会少一点吧。

CommanderI have no reason to say no.那我可没有拒绝的理由。

CommanderYour reaction's making me nervous for some reason too...因为你的反应让我也莫名紧张起来了……

CheyanneWith more precise instruments, I need to be more careful in daily maintenance. There are more parts that need to be maintained more often. It's just...高精度设备增加之后,日常养护起来也要更加注意。不管是频次还是需要养护的零件数量都增加了,但是……

CheyanneSome of the access panels for the parts I need to reach... A-are in places I can't see...可以触及零件的维修窗口……在、在我自己看不见的位置……

CommanderHuh? Oh, some of the parts' service points are on the back, right?嗯?哦,有一些部件的维修口在背后吧?

CheyanneHm... other blind spots, too. Won't be able to do maintenance myself like this.嗯……还有一些其他的视线死角……这样就没有办法自己维护了。

CommanderThat's no problem, you're not alone anymore. Stop thinking that you need to do everything yourself. You should depend on your companions sometimes, you know.这不用担心,你现在已经不是一个人了。不用什么事都想着靠自己一个人解决,也偶尔依赖一下同伴吧。

CheyanneCompanion? I... could I rely on you?同伴吗?我……可以拜托您吧?

CheyanneMaintenance... is important. You're the one I trust the most, so...维护……很重要。您是我最信任的人,所以……

CommanderNo problem, I can help. Might as well take the chance to familiarize myself with the access points.没问题,我可以帮忙。正好可以趁现在熟悉一下几个维修口的位置。

CheyanneEh? Right here... really?咦?要在这里……吗?

CheyanneThis position is a little embarrassing... Wait, I need to mentally prepare myself a little...是有点让人害羞的位置……我需要一点心理准备才能……

CommanderJust where exactly is it? I'm getting a little curious.到底是哪里,我有点好奇了。

CheyanneCommander, come a little closer.指挥官,凑近一点。

CommanderI'm kind of a newbie when it comes to photo-taking and I'm not very good at picture composition... I hope you're happy with this.我在摄影方面还是新手,不怎么会构图……不知道你们是否满意?

DushevnayaIt's perfect! This image is a veritable work of art! It's like it has a soul of its own!完美的精品!这光影堪称艺术,仿佛有灵魂寄宿其中!

SakuraUmmm... While I wouldn't describe it in such fancy terms, I do think you took a very good picture, Commander!欸,嗯。虽然没有杜莎妮说的那么夸张,但是我觉得指挥官您拍得很好看!

CheyanneIt definitely doesn't look like amateur work. Now that we've taken the group photo, it's time for the interview segment.您拍的照片确实不像是业余的水平。合照拍完,现在该轮到分开采访的环节了。

CheyanneSo, which of you two is going first... Hm? Why are you backing off?你们两位谁先拍……嗯?为什么后退了半步?

DushevnayaFacing the eye of the beholder alone is too dangerous. A wise hero ought to approach such a foe with caution.独自面对邪光实在是太过危险,不是英雄该选用的谨慎做法。

SakuraI, I think so too! I don't think I'm ready for my closeup after all...我、我也是!让我一个人面对镜头,果然还是有点勉强……

CheyanneSo you're both not used to one on one interviews? That complicates things.不习惯一个人接受采访吗?这下,稍微有点难办了。

CheyanneOh yes, could you help us out, Commander?对了,指挥官,可以请您帮个忙吗?

CheyanneI think they'd feel more at ease with you around, don't you think?如果有你陪着一起的话,她们两个人应该也能表情更自然些吧?

CommanderBut wouldn't that mean I'd be taking the interview along with them?那样的话,不就变成我和她们一起接受采访了吗?

CheyanneI know it's not part of the original plan, but I think they'd be happier this way.虽然和原本的目的不一致,但我觉得,这样做她们会更开心哦。

DushevnayaWait, so we're going to be interviewed with the Commander? It feels like someone cast Remove Fear on me... I can do this!和指挥官一起接受采访?勇者突然燃起了心中勇气……我可以!

SakuraWait a minute, if we're going to take this interview with the Commander, then... then I want to step forward.等等,如果是和指挥官的话,我……我也想要主动一点。

CheyanneWhy the sudden shift in attitude? No, wait, I get it. If I were with the Commander, I'd also...你们态度怎么突然就变了,也可以理解吧,毕竟和指挥官一起的话,我也想……

CommanderSo, who should I go with?所以,我到底应该和谁一起呢?

CheyannePlease choose one of them, Commander. Turn to the camera once you get in position.那就请指挥官选择她们中的一位吧,摆好姿势后一起看向镜头。

CheyannePlease choose one of them, Commander. Turn to the camera once you get in position.那就请指挥官选择她们中的一位吧,摆好姿势后一起看向镜头。

CheyanneThank you for your assistance, Commander. I managed to interview a lot of people and took a lot of thought-provoking photos and footage.谢谢您,指挥官。多亏您的帮助,我采访了很多人,拍到了很多有意思的画面。

CheyanneI've captured pretty much all the pictures I want, so it's about time I took a look around the celebration.想拍摄的东西都差不多拍到了,也该去庆典会场转一下了。

CommanderLooks like you're enjoying yourself. However, the interviews aren't all done, are they?看得出来你有在好好享受庆典。不过,采访还没有到此结束吧?

CheyanneWhat do you... Hm? Commander, why are you pointing the lens at me?您是指……?嗯,为什么突然把镜头对准了我?

CommanderThat's because I want to interview you, Cheyanne. I want to capture this happy moment.因为我想采访下夏安,记录下此时美好的瞬间。

CommanderYou've asked a lot of people about how they feel, so I'd like to know how you feel too.毕竟我们问了那么多人,我也想知道夏安现在心情如何。

CheyanneI feel very happy. Being able to interview others with you is something I've always wanted to do.就很开心哦。能和您一起采访他人,是我一直想做的事情。

CheyanneFulfilling that wish fills me with joy.能够实现这个愿望,我真的很开心。

CommanderI feel the same way, Cheyanne. Now then, for the second question; how do you feel about me?我也是,夏安。那么第二个问题,夏安,你又是怎么看待我的?

Cheyanne...Ah. You're being really sneaky, Commander.……啊。真是狡猾啊,指挥官。

CommanderI was merely turning the question you posed to Dushevnaya and Sakura back to you.彼此彼此。我只是把你问杜莎妮和樱花的问题抛回到你身上了。

CheyanneI see... It turns out I'm no different from them. Even I get embarrassed expressing my feelings to someone special on camera.原来如此……对着镜头和重要之人说出喜欢,果然会和她们一样不好意思呢。

Commander...Cheyanne?……夏安?

CheyanneYou only get one take for the interview, Commander.采访只有一遍哦,指挥官。

CheyanneSo my original plan was to only talk about my feelings for you once...所以对指挥官的心意,我本来也打算只说一遍的……

CheyanneBut if you want to hear it, I can tell you about them as many times as you'd like.但如果您想听,无论多少遍我都可以对您诉说。

CheyanneCommander, you seem to be enjoying the celebration.指挥官,您看上去对庆典乐在其中呢。

CheyanneSo am I. Everyone I met during the celebration has been very warm and they let me take many precious photos.我也一样。庆典上的大家都很热情,让我拍下了许多珍贵的照片。

CheyanneHowever, after I took pictures of you making wishes with the others, Sakura and Dushevnaya are now fighting over who gets to make a wish with you next.不过,因为拍下您和其他人挂许愿签的事情,杜莎妮和樱花也争着想和您一起祈愿呢。

DushevnayaYeah! Only the gathered power of wishes can carve open a shining new path of rebirth!是啊!唯有聚集的祈望才能开辟新生闪耀的道路!

Sakura...A path? You mean like a route that Truck-sempai travels?……道路?是指货车前辈穿行的道路吗?

SakuraNo, nonono, I almost forgot the most important thing! C-Commander, I, I want to m-m-m-make a wish with you!不、不不不,差点忘了重要的事!指、指挥官,我、我也想和您一起祈祈祈祈祈愿!

CommanderI don't mind. Thing is, I've already hung up two wishes, so I don't know if making two more is alright...可以倒是可以。只不过我已经挂了两个愿望了,再许下两个愿望真的可以吗……

CheyanneMake that three. I'd like to make a wish with you too.是三个哦。我也想和您一起祈愿。

CheyanneThat might be a little much, but I think it can't be helped.虽然数量有些多,不过我也觉得这是没有办法的事。

CheyanneAfter all, everyone's wishes are related to you, so everyone wants to make them with you in the hope that you'll hear them and grant them.毕竟每个人的愿望都和指挥官有关,大家都想和您一起祈愿,希望愿望可以被您听到并实现吧。

CommanderYou have a point. Looks like I'll have to take on the responsibility of granting everyone's wishes.说得也是啊。这样看来,我也必须要肩负起为大家实现愿望的责任呢。

CommanderCheyanne, Dushevnaya, Sakura, can you help me distribute more wishing slips to the others?夏安、杜莎妮,还有樱花,你们能帮我向大家发放更多的许愿签吗?

CommanderI want to make my wish with everyone. I also want to listen to everyone's wishes and help make them come true.我想和大家一起许愿,聆听大家的愿望并努力将它们实现。

DushevnayaI have been waiting a long time to hear this revelation about the truth of the prophecy.这句解明预言的真理,我已经等很久了。

SakuraN-no problem! Just leave it to us!没、没问题,交给我们吧!

CheyanneYes. Commander, may I have permission to take a picture of all of us making our wishes?嗯。指挥官,我到时候可以记录下大家一起许愿的样子吗?

CommanderSure. If everyone makes their wish, the tree will be full of wishing slips and it'll carry all our wishes.好啊。如果大家一起许愿,这棵树应该会挂满许愿签,承载所有人的愿望吧。

CommanderSo when the picture comes out... I think it'll look great.我想……届时它的样子一定会很美。

CheyanneTo the left... And then to the right...往左一点、再往右一点……

MaylingCheyanne, are you rearranging the plants right now?夏安是在调整绿植的位置吗?

Cheyanne...Ah, it's Mayling's.……啊,是美玲来了。

CheyanneI'm planning on ordering some potted plants and improving the atmosphere for the lounge.我打算多订购几盆盆栽,营造一下休息区的氛围。

MaylingIf we're looking for a good atmosphere, then a softer lighting might be even better.追求氛围感的话,光线再柔和一点可能会更好哦。

MaylingDo you want me to order a batch of lighting equipment?需要我来订购一批灯具吗?

CheyanneYeah... if possible, please add a few warm lights.嗯……如果可以的话,我希望能再加装几盏暖光灯。

CheyanneWhen the Commander was resting here in the past, I managed to take many images that came out good.以前指挥官在这里休息的时候,我拍出过很多不错的照片。

CheyanneThe atmosphere from this angle is amazing... Unfortunately the greenery that frequently appeared along with the Commander was destroyed during the bombardment.从这个角度拍出的氛围很好……可惜那盆经常和指挥官一起入镜的绿植,在轰炸中坏掉了。

CheyanneSo, I want to restore that warm feeling to the best of my abilities.所以,我想尽量还原那种温暖的感觉。

CheyanneWhen the Commander returns.... I hope I could still use this spot, and take a group photo of everyone.等指挥官回来以后……或许,我还能在这个取景处,再为指挥官和大家拍一张全新的合影。

MaylingOoh... Cheyanne, I'm starting to look forward to it.呜……夏安,你说得我都有点期待起来了。

MaylingI'll go order the lighting and plants now, they'll help you take the best looking pictures, for sure!我这就去订购灯具和绿植,一定会让你拍出最好看的照片的!

Cheyanne...Thank you, Mayling.……谢谢你,美玲。

CheyanneI'm looking forward to the moment to press the shutter again as well.我也很期待,能够再次按下快门的那一刻。

Affinity Records 契合度记录

Record 1Formerly designated M200, Cheyanne was a cautious and reserved T-Doll with a wide range of interests. She mastered many niche skills and had vast fields of knowledge. When Griffin was dissolved and reorganized, M200 chose to leave alongside Kalina. She was later appointed by NOMFA as a weapons-testing T-Doll, while also serving as a sniper instructor for new recruits. For a time, being far from the frontlines left her unable to improve her combat abilities, which caused her to fall into a slump, but her reunion with the Dolls at the Zucchero became a turning point. Encouraged by former colleagues such as Makiatto, M200 expressed her wishes to Kalina, hoping to take part in more field missions for NOMFA. From then on, she began a busy life juggling three roles at once. M200 believed that as long as she worked diligently and steadily improved herself little by little, even someone as ordinary as herself would become useful when she finally reunited with the Commander. Holding onto this hope, she never slacked off for a moment. At last, as a blessing in disguise, an accident on a field mission led her back to the Commander whom she had so sorely missed... After going through thick and thin together, M200 was given a new name by the Commander—Cheyanne—and thus she began a new life aboard the Elmo. She remained as diligent and eager to learn as ever, despite being just as quiet and shy as before. Only when the Commander or other Dolls encountered trouble did she appear out of nowhere, silently offering her help. "Oh... it's nothing, really. Please don't make a big deal out of it. I'll end up overheating and crashing..."曾用代号M200,谨慎内敛,兴趣爱好涉猎广泛的人形,习有诸多冷门技能和知识。 格里芬解体重组时,M200选择跟随格琳娜离开,后被任命为非军事力量管理局的武器测试人形,兼任新人的狙击教官。 一度因当前工作远离前线,实战能力难以进步而陷入消沉。以与方糖咖啡馆众人形的重逢为契机,在玛绮朵等老同事的鼓励下,M200向格琳娜表明了想法,希望更多地参与管理局的外勤任务,从此开始了一人兼三职的忙碌生活。 M200相信,只要兢兢业业地工作,一点一滴地努力提升能力,等到与指挥官重逢时,即使是平平无奇的自己也能帮上忙。怀抱着这样的希望,M200从不懈怠。终于,她在一次外勤事故中因祸得福,得以和心心念念的指挥官重聚…… 与指挥官一起经历种种之后,如今的M200拥有了指挥官给予的新名字“夏安”,开始了艾莫号上的新生活。她仍像过去一样努力精进,求知若渴,也仍像过去一般安静内向,容易害羞。只有当指挥官或者其他人形遇到麻烦时,才能发现神出鬼没的她出现在身边,默默伸出援手。 “啊,只是举手之劳而已。请别道谢,我会热到宕机的……”

Record 2NOMFA staff dormitory. M200 carefully studied her reflection in the mirror— Low-profile equipment, an utterly unremarkable appearance, and a plain backpack. The kind of Doll who would disappear completely in a crowd. A small, satisfied smile appeared on her face. In the very beginning, M200 had also attempted direct assaults. Like the powerful Dolls she admired, she attempted to crush enemies head-on with strong fists and overwhelming firepower. But countless failures in training simulations awakened her to the truth—this path was not for her. She was small in stature and of average strength. Even the coverage provided by the firepower of her imprinted weapon offered no particular advantage... M200 finally understood her role after long and careful consideration. She would hide in the shadows, or blend into the crowd and become the most unexpected arrow. She would sharpen her vision, refine her predictions, and lock onto unguarded enemies from the farthest distances. She would be an utterly ordinary tactical Doll who achieved inevitable, steady victories. After one final check of her equipment, M200 nodded seriously. "I'm heading out." "Do your best, M200."非军事力量管理局,员工宿舍。 M200认真地看着镜子中的自己—— 低调的装备,平平无奇的外表,朴素的背包,是扔进人形堆里就找不出来的类型。 M200露出小小的、满意的微笑。 最初的最初,M200也尝试过正面进攻。像那些她所憧憬的强大人形们一样,用有力的拳头、强悍的火力正面碾压敌人。但模拟训练环境中无数次的失败惊醒了M200,这种路线于她而言是走不通的。 她的个子小小的,力气也平平无奇,烙印武器的火力覆盖面也并无优势…… M200慎重地考虑了许久,终于认清了自己的定位。 她要隐匿于阴影,或是藏身于人群,成为最出其不意的一道利箭。 她要有犀利的目光,精准的预判,从最远的距离锁定毫无防备的敌人。 她要做一个平平无奇的人形,取得毫无悬念的、稳稳的胜利。 M200最后一次检查好装备,认真地点点头。 “我出发了。” “要加油啊,M200。”

Record 3During the Battle of Mokosh, M200 was heavily injured and carried off by other Dolls to find Mayling. "Put the wounded over here—Whoa, are you M200?" Looking at the slightly awkward Doll on the stretcher, Mayling gasped. M200 looked puzzled. "Yes. May I ask... Is there something wrong with me...?" Mayling quickly shook her head. "Huh? No, no. I'm just a bit surprised..." "Actually, I've seen your name in other Dolls' data, but you seem completely different from the rumors. I somehow got the wrong impression of you...? I thought you'd be very tall." M200 suddenly understood. "Ah, those rumors... were all entirely baseless." "I am of very average height. I certainly wouldn't pierce the ceiling standing up—let alone pass through the clouds. I also wouldn't put my leg over any Doll's shoulder." "The claims that I have an internal encyclopedia and cookbook are also false, and I've never served as a technician... There are many things in which I'm not knowledgeable." "...I'm very sorry for somehow causing so much confusion..." She added seriously, "...Come to think of it, no T-Doll could ever be that tall, right...?" Mayling blinked, then laughed. "You're right! Wow, I was totally fooled... Sorry for making weird assumptions about you." M200 shook her head. "It's alright. Please don't worry about it." Mayling smiled. "Um... Even though we've just met, I think you're really cute. You sound super dependable and I've heard you're an excellent fighter. I hope we'll get along!" "Hm? Are you okay? W-why are you turning red...? Oh no, your frame is suddenly overheating..." "M200? Wake up, M200... Oh dear... What should I do...?" ... And so, M200 and Mayling's first meeting ended in chaos. Fortunately, both firmly believed things would get better in the future.莫科什一战,M200受了重创,被人形们抬去找美玲。 “把伤员放到这里——哇,你就是M200吗?” 看着担架上略显局促的人形少女,美玲惊讶地张圆了嘴。 M200不解:“正是。请问……我有什么不妥之处吗……” 美玲连忙摇头:“诶?没有没有。我只是有一点惊讶……” “其实,我在其他人形的数据里见过你的名字,不过你好像跟传闻中完全不同,是我之前的印象出了问题吗……我还以为你会是非常高大的人形。” M200恍然大悟。 “啊,那些传闻……只是误传。” “我的身高很普通,就算站起来也不会刺破天花板——更不可能穿过云层。” “我也不会把腿架在任何人形的肩上。” “内置了百科全书和食谱的传言也是假的,过去也没有作为技术工人服役过……我有很多不了解的事。” “……非常抱歉,不知为何,带来了这么多的错误信息……” M200认真地反驳:“……话说回来,像传言中这种身高的战术人形应该不存在吧……” 美玲恍然:“说的也是呢。哎呀,完全被骗了……对不起哦!擅自想象你的样子。” M200摇摇头:“没关系,请不用放在心上。” 美玲露出了笑容:“嗯……虽然刚刚认识你,不过感觉很可爱呢,语气给人一种可靠的感觉,听说你的战斗实力也很棒。以后好好相处吧!” “嗯?你还好吗?怎么、怎么变红了……哎呀,素体温度突然变得好高……” “M200?M200你醒醒呀……呜……怎么办……” …… M200与美玲的初次见面在一片混乱中结束,幸好,事后双方都坚信未来会好起来的。

Record 4This month, the Elmo's funds were running tight, and Cheyanne noticed my chagrin. "Then... how about holding a photography exhibition? W-would that work?" "The works can be priced for inquiries. If the price is right, we sell them—the proceeds could help ease your burden." Cheyanne made the suggestion earnestly. Looking at the unpaid bills before me, I was tempted. And so, preparations for the exhibition began. Cheyanne actually had a knack for curating—that's something I had never noticed before. But... would any Dolls really be willing to spend their own money on these photos? Following my doubtful gaze, Cheyanne carefully reviewed each displayed piece and nodded seriously. "Don't you worry, Commander." An unflattering meme-like photo of a certain anonymous Doll—sold. A candid shot of two close friends sharing an intimate moment—sold. A reunion photo of old friends meeting again after many years—sold. A slice-of-life photo capturing a squad's spirit—sold. A close-up of an exquisitely prepared full-course feast—sold. As I helped Cheyanne stick "SOLD" labels onto the photos, I quietly marveled at both the Dolls' financial resources and their enthusiasm. At the end of the temporary gallery corridor hung a photo of me. I was lying on a bed in the lounge, resting with my eyes closed—I had no idea when she managed to snap it from that angle. I stopped and stared at it for a while. "Th-that one is not for sale." Cheyanne immediately stepped in front of the photo, seemingly mistaking my interest for an intent to bid. "Quite a few Dolls have already asked about it... but it's not for sale—not even to the subject himself!" I smiled and patted her head. "I just wanted to compliment you—it's a great shot." "...But if the price is high enough, you could consider selling it." "As compensation, I'll let you take more photos of me." "Uh... What?"艾莫号本月经费有些吃紧,我的为难刚巧被夏安看进了眼里。 “那就办一次摄影展,可、可以吗?” “作品接受询价,价格合适就成交,所得资金正好为您解忧。” 夏安认真地提议着,看看面前的待付账单,我很是心动。 摄影展就这样开始了筹备。 以前没有注意过,原来夏安对策展也有一些心得。 只是……这些照片,真的会有人形愿意自掏腰包购入吗? 夏安顺着我狐疑的目光逐一确认过展出的作品,一本正经地点头:“指挥官,您放心。” 某位不愿透露姓名的人形的颜艺丑照,卖了。 好姐妹人形亲密时刻的抓拍,卖了。 好朋友时隔多年重逢留下的合影,卖了。 小队队魂生活照,卖了。 非常成功的一桌满汉全席的特写,卖了。 我帮夏安贴着“已售出”标签,暗自感叹人形们的财力,以及对这些照片的热情。 临时搭建起的长廊尽头是一张我的照片。 我躺在休息室的床上,闭目小憩——也不知道她是何时摸到这个角度拍摄的。 我停下脚步,多看了几眼。 “那、那个是非卖品哦。” 夏安立刻站到照片前,似乎误会我要出价。 “已经有不少人形来问过了……这张,就算是指挥官本人来也……不、不可以!” 我笑了笑,摸摸她的脑袋:“只是看见了,想夸你拍得挺好的。” “……不过,要是出价够高,你就考虑一下出售吧?” “作为补偿我再给你多拍几张。” “呃……诶?”

Record 5"Excuse me, is this Miss Loreley's room?" A cautious knock sounded from outside. Recognizing Cheyanne's timid voice, Loreley smiled and opened the door. "Yes, I'm right here... Um, did you get lost?" "I didn't get lost. I came to see you. Back at Mokosh... Thank you for saving me. This is a token of my gratitude." Cheyanne lifted the large gift box in her arms, trying hard to draw attention to it. "It's just some ordinary handmade daily goods, snacks, and tea bags. I made them myself, so please don't expect too much. But my gratitude is very sincere." "Oh my, thank you so much. Handmade gifts from a cute old colleague... I'll be sure to treasure them." Loreley lifted the box to her lips as if to kiss it. The gesture made Cheyanne blush deeply. "A-and also... Miss Loreley!" Cheyanne took a deep breath and gathered her courage. "I... um... I know a little about your work at Statesec!" Loreley paused briefly as she put away the gift box, then smiled at her. "Oh?" Cheyanne fought the urge to close her eyes as she spoke—even if it might make things easier—and forced herself to maintain eye contact. "I'm very grateful for your help before and I'm happy we can work together again. As an elite Doll, you are both beautiful and powerful..." "B-b-but—" "If you ever do anything that so much as suggests an intention of harming the Commander in the future, I will stop you. Even if I'm just an ordinary Doll that can't compare to an elite like you, I will give it everything I have..." "So," Cheyanne took another deep breath, "I hope you'll think twice before doing anything." Loreley looked at her in surprise, then raised her hand. Cheyanne finally gave in and squeezed her eyes shut—but the hand gently landed on her head. "Heh... an 'ordinary' Doll wouldn't think this far ahead." The gentle hand ruffled Cheyanne's hair. "Don't be so tense. Want something to drink to relax? If alcohol isn't your thing, I have milk in the fridge." Cheyanne was taken off-guard by such a mellow response. "Miss Loreley..." "Well, we're still comrades for now, aren't we?" Loreley winked. "Care to join me? Let's do some catching-up tonight. I'll drink milk with you." Cheyanne looked at her for a moment, then finally lowered her head and accepted the invitation. "...Much obliged, Miss Loreley." "...I just hope... that all of us from Griffin... can always stand on the same side."“请问,这里是罗蕾莱小姐的休息室吗?” 门外传来小心翼翼的敲击声,罗蕾莱听出了夏安怯怯的声音,笑着打开门。 “是我……哎呀,这是迷路了?” “没有迷路。我是来找您的,在莫科什的时候……感谢您的营救,这是谢礼。” 夏安抬高了抱在胸口的大礼物盒,努力让罗蕾莱注意到它的存在。 “只是一些平平无奇的手工生活用品和零食茶包,是我自己制作的,请别对它们抱有太高的期待。不过,感谢您的心意是非常认真的。” “嗯嗯,真是客气。可爱的老同事亲手制作的礼物,我会好好珍惜的。” 罗蕾莱将礼物盒放到唇边,作势轻吻。这样的姿态或是话语让夏安害羞地涨红了脸。 “还、还有……罗蕾莱小姐!” 夏安深呼吸着,鼓起勇气开口。 “我……呃……稍许对罗蕾莱小姐在国安局的事有一点了解!” 罗蕾莱收起礼物的动作只停顿了一瞬,她笑眯眯地看着夏安:“哦?” 夏安很想闭上眼睛说话,这样似乎能增强她的勇气,但她最终选择坚持与罗蕾莱对视。 “我非常感谢您先前的援助,也很开心可以再次与您共事,您这样的精英人形确实又美丽又强大……” “但但但是——” “如果未来您有伤害指挥官的倾向甚至实际行动,我一定会阻止您的。即使我只是一个平平无奇的战术人形,与您这样的精英完全不同,我也会拼尽全力……” “所以,”夏安再次深呼吸,“希望您不要轻举妄动。” 罗蕾莱惊讶地看了一眼夏安,随即向着夏安伸出手。 夏安终于忍不住闭上了眼睛,但罗蕾莱的手只是轻柔地落在夏安的头顶上。 “呵……一般来说,平平无奇的战术人形是不会考虑这么多的哦。” 温柔的力道揉乱了夏安的头发。 “别这么紧绷,来喝点什么放松一下吧?不方便饮酒的话,我冰箱里也有牛奶。” 面对这样不轻不重的回应,夏安有些无所适从:“罗蕾莱小姐……” “哎呀,现在我们还是战友,不是吗?” 罗蕾莱对夏安眨眨眼,“要一起吗?就当今晚是叙旧之夜吧,我陪你喝牛奶。” 夏安注视了罗蕾莱片刻,终于低下头,小声地接受。 “……那就打扰了,罗蕾莱小姐。” “……我只是希望……我们……格里芬的大家,能一直站在同一边。”

Record 6Neural link check... No abnormalities. Connecting to URNC Network... Success. Authentication... Confirming... Fail. @ID has been disabled. Please contact the administrator. It's the same result again. On the first day M200 was expelled from the NOMFA network, she sat on the street of a satellite city and attempted to connect to the URNC Network 100 times—and failed 100 times. At first, she assumed it was only a temporary network issue. Ten minutes, half an hour, one hour, six hours, twelve hours... After trying for a long, agonizing period of time, the result yielded by her neural cloud showed not the slightest change. Rain fell on her head and shoulders. M200 pulled up her hood and wrapped her arms around herself tightly. Not far away, the electronic billboard at the intersection was broadcasting a weather notice about artificial rainfall today. The ground was dampened by rainwater; shallow puddles reflected the noisy glow of neon lights. For the first time, M200 felt an overwhelming sense of confusion and fear. Having only been in service for a short time, she had almost exclusively served under Griffin before transferring to NOMFA. She had always existed within the structure and protection of large organizations. Of course she knew how insignificant she was in this vast world, but she had never imagined how unsettling it would feel to be disconnected from it... At some point, the weather broadcast ended and the tone of the screen above her shifted. A wanted notice appeared, accompanied by real footage from an incident. This was not the first time M200 had seen the images, yet she was instinctively drawn to look up at them. That figure she could not stop thinking about. The face etched deep into her neural cloud. And several former colleagues from Griffin whom she recognized. The battlefield raged on as the footage looped endlessly. M200 was grateful for the keen eyesight of a Doll—sharp enough to clearly see his movements, how he withstood firepower far greater than his own, how he escaped onto a helicopter... She was grateful for her vast storage capacity—enough to record each frame in perfect clarity, tracing his form and features again and again. He was injured. She didn't know how severely, but he certainly hadn't met his end. M200 had faith in him. Ah, that's right... She hadn't met her end either. She simply had to face this vast world alone. Compared to his situation on the screen, hers was already far better. If she endured, then one day, she would reunite with her friends somewhere. ...She must not fall here. Only then could she walk toward such a future. "Um... excuse me, do you need any help?" From the far end of the street, a patrolling Doll approached. They seemed to have been observing her for some time. M200 took one last look at the figure on the big screen, then stood up as calmly as she could. "No, thank you." "I've already got the help I need."心智链接确认……无异常 正在接入罗联网络……接入成功 认证……权限确认……失败@ID已被禁用,请联系管理员 又是如此。 M200被管理局网络踢出的第一天,她坐在某座卫星城的街头,尝试接入了100次罗联网络,得到了100个相同的失败结果。 起初,M200以为是短暂的网络故障。 十分钟,半小时,一小时,六小时,十二小时……漫长而煎熬的尝试过后,心智中返回的结果并未出现丝毫变化。 雨落在头顶和肩头,M200拉上兜帽,抱紧自己。 不远处十字街口的电子大屏正在播报着今日有人工降雨的天气通知。地面被雨水润湿,浅浅的水坑倒映出霓虹灯喧闹的色彩。 M200只感到前所未有的迷茫和惶恐。出厂时间并不算长的M200几乎只在格里芬服役过,此后转入非军事力量管理局,由始至终身处庞大组织的脉络之中,庇护之下。 她当然知道世界很大而她极其渺小,但她从未想过,与世界失去联系会如此令人不安…… 不知何时,天气播报结束,头顶荧幕的色调发生了变化。 一份通缉令,配合着肇事现场的实拍画面。 这并不是M200第一次看见这些画面了,但她仍旧本能地被吸引,仰视。 魂牵梦萦的那个身影,刻进心智深处的面容,还有几位她熟悉的格里芬的前同事们。 战场轰轰烈烈,视频不断轮播。 M200庆幸人形的眼神很好,好到足以让她看清他的行动,他是如何抵抗远胜己方的火力,如何逃上直升机…… M200庆幸她的存储空间还有很多,多到可以一帧一帧记录下最清晰的画面,描摹他的身形与眉眼。 他受伤了,不知道伤势如何,但是,绝对还没到最后一刻。 M200相信他。 啊,对了……她也还没到最后一刻呢。 只是要独自面对这个广大的世界而已,比起银屏中他的处境,已经好了太多。 坚持下去,总有一天,大家会在某处重逢。 ……不能在这里倒下,才有机会走向这样的明天。 “那个……请问您需要什么帮助吗?” 街道的尽头,有巡逻人形向M200走来,对方似乎观察她有段时间了。 M200最后看了一眼大屏幕上的身影,然后尽可能平静地站起来。 “不必了,谢谢。” “我已经得到帮助了。”

Record 7After Cheyanne joined the Elmo's crew, she became one of the hardest Dolls to catch aboard. I found her in countless unbelievable places. I stroked the trunk of a potted plant and saw its leaves tremble—"Cheyanne?" I tapped on a seamless wall and felt a soft, springy component—"Cheyanne?" I lifted the lid of a trash bin and looked down at a fluffy head—"Cheyanne?" Whenever I called her name, that absurd hiding spot would produce a flushed little face. The girl would look at me shyly, her gaze full of dependence and innocence. "You found me, Commander." "Do you have a task for me?" If I told her another Doll was looking for her, the blush on her face would fade slightly. She would let out a soft "ah," awkwardly remove her camouflage, thank me, and run off to whoever was waiting for her. If I assigned her a task elsewhere, she would happily comply without hesitation, quietly pleased that she could be of help. And if I opened my arms and said "come here," that already rosy face would heat up again. She would hop over with excitement, carefully halt in front of me, and finally throw herself into my arms like a bird returning to its nest. I'd never told her that, when work got exhausting, this little game of "Find Cheyanne" was actually very stress-relieving.夏安加入艾莫号后,成为了艾莫号最难抓的人形之一。 我在无数匪夷所思的地方抓到过夏安。 我抚摸盆栽的主干,看见枝叶的颤抖——“夏安?” 我轻拍天衣无缝的墙体,摸到柔软微弹的组件——“夏安?” 我抱起垃圾桶的箱盖,俯视毛茸茸的头顶——“夏安?” 每当我呼唤这个名字,那匪夷所思的隐藏点总会转出一枚红通通的脸蛋,少女不好意思地看着我,眼神依赖而纯真。 “指挥官,被您发现了。” “请问,有给我的任务吗?” 此时,如果我告诉她别的人形在找她,她的红晕会消退一些,细细地“呀”一声,然后不好意思地扯下伪装,一边道谢一边跑向某位人形等待的地点。 如果我将她派往别处执行任务,她会很高兴地一口答应,似乎因为自己帮上了忙而窃喜。 而当我张开双臂,告诉她“过来”的时候,那张本就红润的脸蛋会再次升温,她会雀跃地蹦跳过来,小心翼翼地在我面前刹车,最后像归巢的小鸟一样扑进我怀里。 我没有告诉她,工作疲惫时进行一场这样的找夏安游戏,还是非常解压的。

Record 8Recently, Cheyanne had been researching more variations of disguise—mainly changes to her external components. "Commander, may I ask you a few questions?" "Of course, go ahead." "What is your type? Lately, I've been considering whether I should become taller..." "What hair color do you prefer? Eye color? Is an hourglass figure better, or a pear-shaped one?" "Should my legs be thicker or slimmer?" "Oh, right, and chest components... How big would be just right?" "Commander, what changes should I make to become more to your taste?" The barrage of questions left me a little dizzy. "You're perfect just the way you are." "...Really?" Cheyanne sounded doubtful. "I like you as you are now." "But," she pressed on, "Commander... I know that sometimes when you look at me, you would think 'Ah, what a perfect daughter,' right?" "Uh... Well, you ARE very cute, Cheyanne." "What if I don't want to be just your 'daughter'? It might sound a bit greedy, but..." "C-Commander! I want to become the WOMAN of your dreams!"夏安近来正在研究更多的变装花样——主要是外观部件上的改变。 “指挥官,可以请教您一些问题吗?” “当然,说吧。” “指挥官最喜欢的类型是什么样的呢?最近,在考虑要不要变得更高……” “您最喜欢的发色?瞳色?体型是沙漏更好还是梨形更好呢?” “腿要变得更粗还是更细?” “啊,对了,还有胸部的组件……什么程度才是刚刚好?” “指挥官,我要怎么变成您最喜欢的样子?” 我被一连串的问题问得有些头晕。 “你保持现在的样子就很好。” “……是吗?”夏安有些怀疑。 “你现在的样子我就很喜欢啊。” “但是,”夏安仍不放过我,“指挥官……我知道的哦,有时您看着我,会想着‘啊,真是完美的女儿’吧?” “呃……嗯,夏安很可爱啊。” “如果我不想仅仅做您的‘女儿’呢?这样说或许有些贪心,但是……呜……” “指、指挥官!我想变成您喜欢的恋人的样子!”
