Andoris - Recollection Node I 安朵丝·回溯节点I

CommanderSorry to keep you waiting, Andoris.久等了，安朵丝。

AndorisDon't worry about it.不会。

AndorisIt's very kind of you to take time out of your busy day just to help me sort through my neural data, Commander.指挥官，很感谢您特地找时间，帮我梳理心智数据。

CommanderYou're welcome. It's my responsibility as your Commander after all.没什么，这也是我作为指挥官，应该做的。

CommanderHmm, today we're going through the section of records from when you joined 404, right?呃，今天要梳理的记录，是你加入404时的吧？

AndorisYes. A lot happened back then.嗯，当时，还发生了不少事呢。

CommanderOh? Interesting. I'm also keen to learn about what went down.哦？正好，我也对你的这段经历感兴趣。

CommanderAfter all, the Klukai I remember never struck me as someone particularly welcoming to new members.毕竟，我印象中的可露凯，可不是会轻易同意吸纳新成员的。

AndorisHehe. You're right about that, Commander.呵呵，让您说中了，指挥官。

AndorisYou seem eager to hear it too. If you're ready, shall we begin right now?既然您也有兴致，如果准备好的话，我们这就开始，可以吗？

CommanderLet's do this.好。

Hidden Invitation 隐匿的邀请

(416 and Gr G11 push open the door as they walk into the café. After finding their seat, a waitress Doll approaches them.)（HK416与G11推门走进了咖啡馆。找到位置坐下后，负责招待的民用人形走了过来。）

AndorisWelcome, my name is Andoris and I'm here to serve you today.欢迎光临，我是今天为客人们服务的安朵丝。

AndorisIs there anything I can help you with?请问有什么可以帮到二位的吗？

(The attentive Andoris does not hand them the menu, nor does she show any signs of concern or impatience. She merely smiled and waits for 416 and Gr G11's response.)（体贴的安朵丝没有递上菜单，也并未表现出任何疑虑或是不耐烦，只是微笑着等待HK416与G11的回答。）

(Perhaps eased by Andoris' gentle demeanor, 416 briefly loosens up after having glared at Andoris with her usual wariness.)（戒备地盯着安朵丝看了片刻，但或许是因为安朵丝的温和举止，HK416略微放松了一些。）

416Your manager. Is Springfield here?你们的店长，春田在吗？

AndorisManager Springfield is unavailable at the moment. She'll be back in a little bit.春田店长临时外出了呢，可能稍晚一点回来。

AndorisIf it's okay with you, you can wait for her here, or you can leave her a message.两位不介意的话，可以在店里等她，当然也可以选择给她留言。

416Sure, we'll wait for her here.嗯，我们在这等一会。

AndorisAlright, I'll head back to work then. Please let me know if you need anything.好的，那我就先去忙了，有需要请随时喊我。

(After Andoris has left, 416 double-checks the details of the commission.)（待安朵丝稍微走远后，HK416再次确认了一遍委托内容。）

416We're ahead of schedule. There's still half an hour before the agreed delivery time.我们来早了，距离约定的交货时间还有半个小时。

Gr G11Isn't that a good thing...? That means we completed the last commission faster than expected... Stop dragging me out of bed so early in the morning next time, 416...那不是很好吗……说明上个委托我们完成得比想象中要快一些……416下次就不要一大早把我拽起来了……

416...And you need to stop treating one-offs as the norm.……不要总是把侥幸当成常态。

Gr G11Whatever you say... You're always on edge like this, 416...怎么样都好吧……416的精神太紧绷了啦……

(Gr G11 murmurs as she stretches lazily before she flops onto the table, contently letting her eyelids slowly close shut.)（G11嘟囔着伸了一个懒腰，随后软绵绵地瘫在了桌子上，满意地合上双眼。）

Gr G11Since we have plenty of time, I'll just... Zzzzzzz....既然还有时间，我就稍微……Zzzzzzzz……

416Even when those two aren't around anymore, Gr G11 still hasn't grown one bit...明明那两个家伙都派不上用场了，G11还是一点长进都没有……

(416 props her head up and turns her attention to outside the window.)（HK416支着脑袋，将视线转向窗外。）

(The traffic of a Green Zone Café in the day is quite light. Together with the soothing melodies playing in the background, the sunlight streaming through the ceiling-high windows conjures a brief moment of afternoon tranquility.)（绿区白日的咖啡馆客人并不多，阳光透过落地窗照射进来，与店内流淌的舒缓音乐融汇成了午后的片刻安宁。）

(Amidst this tranquility, 416 checks the message interface on her terminal once again.)（在这份安宁中，可露凯又查看了一次终端中的消息界面。）

(Alas, it is just as quiet there.)（可惜，那里也是一样的安静。）

416Have things like this bothered you before, too... Commander?你以前也会有这样的烦恼吗……指挥官。

CustomerHot, hot, hot—!!!好烫————！！！

CustomerGet me some ice!快把冰块拿过来！

AndorisR-right.好、好的。

CustomerCan't you take that pitcher away?!除了冰块你倒是把翻了的水壶拿开啊！

AndorisBring ice cubes. Wipe the table. Then, take the order, and take the pitcher away—先拿冰块——再擦桌子——然后——点单——拿走水壶——

CustomerUghhhh, again?! Can't you process more than one thing at a time?!呃啊啊啊，又来了！你就不能同时多做几件事情吗？！

CustomerYou think I'm in the mood to order food right now?!而且这时候还想什么点单啊！

AndorisI'm really sorry...实在抱歉呢……

(The commotion nearby interrupts the brief moment of peace 416 was enjoying. Gr G11, on the other hand, slightly adjusts her position and drifts back into her slumber.)（不远处传来的嘈杂声打扰了HK416难得的悠闲，而G11则是稍微换了换姿势，继续睡了过去。）

(Seeing the overwhelmed and panicking Andoris, a certain civilian Doll pops into 416's mind. She slightly adjusts her mental state and lets out a soft sigh.)（看着手忙脚乱的安朵丝，某个民用人形的身影浮现在脑海，HK416略微调整了一番自己的心智状态，轻轻叹了口气。）

416...At the very least, Gr G11's more useful than this one.……G11也许多少比这个有用。

(Finally, the café's doors swing open once again as Springfield walks in.)（终于，咖啡馆的玻璃门被再次推开，春田走了进来。）

(Upon noticing Andoris wiping at the coffee stain, she smiles helplessly. Just as she's about to lend Andoris a hand, 416 barges in and blocks her path.)（看到正在擦拭咖啡污迹的安朵丝，她无奈地笑了笑，正想要过去帮忙时却被HK416拦住了去路。）

Springfield...416?……HK416？

SpringfieldIt's been a while. My apologies for my absence and not being there to receive you. There was an urgent matter I had to attend to.好久不见。很抱歉，刚刚有点急事突然要出门，没能第一时间招待你。

416It's fine. You're right on time.没事，时间刚刚好。

SpringfieldHehe, exacting as always, 416.呵呵，HK416还是这么严谨。

SpringfieldHow long has it been since we last met...? Three years? No, must be longer than that.我们有多久没见啦……3年？不，似乎更久一些呢。

416Let's leave the catching up for later.叙旧的事情放到以后再说吧。

416Is the cargo ready for handover?需要交接的货品准备好了吗？

SpringfieldCargo...“货品”……

(A tinge of hesitation flashes across Springfield's usual gentle expression.)（温柔的春田脸上闪过一丝犹豫。）

SpringfieldI see. But please wait for a moment while I take care of something...我知道了，麻烦你等一会，我需要稍微处理一下……

(With 416's nod of agreement, Springfield gestures for Andoris to head to the back of the café. Still cleaning the floor, Andoris pauses for a moment before joining Springfield.)（看到对方点头后，春田便招呼安朵丝去往咖啡厅后间，本来还在擦地的安朵丝停滞了一下后跟了上去。）

(416 walks back to her table and bluntly shakes Gr G11 awake.)（HK416则是走回桌边，不留情面地将G11摇醒。）

Gr G11Ughhh... What now...?唔……做什么啦……

416Time to work.起来干活。

Gr G11Sure, sure... No need to wake me like that...干活就干活……动什么手啊……

Gr G11Springfield's back? Where is she?春田回来了？在哪啊？

SpringfieldSorry to keep you waiting. Please follow me to the back.不好意思，让你们久等了，请随我来后间吧。

(416 hesitates for a moment, then pushes the drowsy Gr G11 along after Springfield.)（HK416迟疑片刻，便推着睡眼惺忪的G11跟上了春田的脚步。）

(Walking past the kitchen, the three stop somewhere more akin to a storage room.)（穿过后厨，三人来到了像是储物仓库一样的地方。）

(A large, person-tall container lies quietly in the center of the room.)（足有一人高的巨大箱子安静地躺在房间里。）

(416 cautiously approaches the container and carefully examines it for a moment.)（HK416戒备地走近箱子，仔细观察了片刻。）

416This is what we're here for? Can you please unlock the box?这就是要交接的货品？麻烦你把箱子打开吧。

416Seeing as the exact delivery date has yet to be confirmed, the cargo will need to be stored at 404's warehouse first. Thus, we'll need to verify the cargo's condition before delivery.这次委托的具体交货日期还未确定，货品需要在404小队的仓库中保存一段时间，我们有必要确认货品在交付前的状态。

SpringfieldNo problem, but... If possible, can you please stop referring to her as "cargo"?没有问题，但如果可以的话……能不要叫她“货品”吗？

416What do you mean by "her"?什么意思？

(Instead of answering directly, Springfield pushes open the lid.)（春田没有回答，而是推开了箱盖。）

(Andoris lies quietly in hibernation in the cold transport container; her serene sleeping face resembles the warm sunshine of spring.)（开启了休眠模式的安朵丝，静静地躺在冰冷的运输箱里，她恬静的睡颜却仿佛春日暖阳。）

SpringfieldWhile she has been removed from the café's registry, her local neural backup has yet to be deleted. In a way, she is still our companion.她虽然已经从咖啡馆名下注销，但本地心智并未删除，所以也还算是我们的同伴呢。

416What companion? ...After everything, you just sold her off like any other appliance or item.说什么同伴……到头来还不是被你们当做货物出售了？

416Who did you sell her to? Don't tell me the scrapyard? Or some random broker in the Yellow Zone?卖给谁？不会是废品回收站吧？还是甩卖给黄区的暗商？

Gr G11416... We just need to verify her condition. No need to delve too deep into this...416……我们只需要确认状态就好了，没必要深究这些吧……

416I don't need you to remind me of that.用不着你提醒。

(Seeing 416's overbearing stance, Gr G11 reluctantly chimes in to ease the tension despite the "not this again" expression on her face.)（看到HK416的强硬态度，尽管露出了“好麻烦啊”的表情，但G11还是不情不愿地开口帮忙解释。）

Gr G11Hmm... Please don't take it personally, Springfield... 416 is just a little hypersensitive with these matters due to what happened to us before...唔……春田你不要在意啊……416可能是因为我们之前的遭遇有点神经过敏……

Gr G11404 has no prejudices whatsoever against our clients... nor do we delve into matters that are not our concern. You can rest assured...404小队对委托方不会抱有成见的……也不会深入了解不该我们知道的事情，放心好了……

SpringfieldHehe, I understand.呵呵，没关系的。

SpringfieldWe too simply hope Andoris can find a more suitable place... Due to her frame's performance issues, she can't handle most of the daily tasks at the café very well. She herself is quite troubled by this.我们其实也是，希望她能找到更适合自己的工作……安朵丝因为性能的缘故，无法很好地处理咖啡厅的日常事务，她自己为此也很烦恼。

SpringfieldBut rest assured, the one who will take Andoris in is not an inconsiderate individual. I can guarantee you that.但是请放心，下一个接纳安朵丝的人，绝对不是什么不负责任的家伙哦，这一点我们是确信的。

(416, without even responding to Springfield, coldly patches into to an encrypted channel. Leva's voice comes through.)（对春田的话不置可否，HK416冷着脸接入了某个特定加密频道，莱娅的声音传了过来。）

LevaLooks like you successfully rendezvoused with Springfield.看来你们已经和春田顺利汇合了呢。

416Leva, is the "cargo" you told us to bring over this civilian Doll called Andoris?莱娅，你要我们接管的货物就是这名叫安朵丝的民用人形？

LevaI don't remember the exact nature of the cargo being specified anywhere, but given the time, location, and contact for the handover all line up, it sounds right to me.具体的内容物委托中也没有详细说明，但既然时间、地点、交接人都没错的话，应该就是了吧。

416Sounds right? To you?应该？就是？

416Since when did 404 start taking on sketchy commissions like these?什么时候404小队也要开始接这些含混不清的委托了？

416Don't think that I—而且你别以为我——

LevaOh, looks like Kalina got herself in some trouble. Gotta hang up now.哎呀，格琳娜似乎遇到麻烦了，我要先结束通讯了哦。

LevaI'll trust you with bringing Andoris back~安朵丝就暂时拜托你们带回去了~

416Hello? HELLO?!喂！喂？！

(With the call abruptly cut off, 416 can only try to calm herself. She then closes the lid of the container in front of her.)（通讯被无情地掐断，HK416只好努力将自己的心智稳定下来，随后把面前的箱盖合上。）

41620█-██-██ 15:03:56, Squad 404 confirms receiving... the civilian Doll Andoris.█年-█月-█日 15时3分56秒，404小队确认接收……民用人形安朵丝。

Gr G11Phew... She's finally back to normal...呼……终于恢复正常了……

SpringfieldHehe. I'll leave her to you from now on, Squad 404.呵呵，之后这孩子就拜托你们了，404小队。

SpringfieldYou should stay and rest for a bit before you leave.要不要再留下休息一会？

416That will not be necessary. Until she's delivered, 404 will ensure Andoris' safety.不必了。 截至交付为止，404会确保安朵丝的安全。

416If any unexpected issues arise down the line, we will contact you again.后续的流程如果出现意外，我们会再次与你联系。

416Oi, Gr G11.喂，G11。

Gr G11Come on... Not me again...不是吧……怎么又是我啊……

416Shut up, get her out of here.别啰嗦，把她带走。

SpringfieldThe back door is over there.后门在这里。

416Okay.嗯。

(Gr G11 carries the transport container out of the back door of the café, with 416 following after her.)（G11将运输箱从咖啡馆后门运了出去，HK416随之也离开了咖啡馆。）

(Perhaps out of professional habit, Springfield gently bows at their departing silhouette.)（或许是出于职业习惯，站在后门边的春田向着她们二人的背影轻轻鞠下一躬。）

SpringfieldPlease take good care of her.这孩子，就拜托你们了。

Hidden Intentions 隐藏的意图

(Having brought back and safely stored Andoris at 404's temporary base, 416 returns to her routine as if nothing happened.)（将安朵丝运回404临时据点并妥善保存后，HK416便仿佛无事发生一般回到了自己的正常工作中。）

(Originally planning to bring Gr G11 along for the simulation training, she notices several maintenance crew sitting at the usually vacant rest area.)（本想带上G11一起去进行模拟训练的她，此时却发现往常冷清的休息区中坐着几个维修人员。）

(Each of them holds a cup of coffee and chats enthusiastically, none notices 416's appearance.)（他们人手一杯咖啡，正热络地聊着什么，没有人注意到HK416的出现。）

(The aroma of coffee wafting through the air adds a touch of coziness this place usually lacks, but also a hint of suspicion.)（弥散的咖啡香气为这里平添了一份暖意但却也足够可疑。）

Happy Maintenance Crew MemberWow. Can't believe we're being attended to by someone. It's definitely a first.哇，这还是第一次外派来做检修时有人接待。

Happy Maintenance Crew MemberGuess these Dolls finally learned to treat their guests.这群人形终于学会待客之道了吗？

Easy-Going Maintenance Crew MemberI don't think I've seen her face before. A tactical Doll hiring a civilian Doll? This world is becoming more absurd by the day.是新面孔呢，战术人形雇佣民用人形，这世界越来越荒唐了。

Burly Maintenance Crew MemberWho cares. I'm good as long as there are pretty girls to look at. Hahaha.管他呢，只要有漂亮美少女看，我就开心哈哈哈。

Easy-Going Maintenance Crew MemberYou're right— Miss, another cup of coffee please!也是，小姐姐——再来一杯咖啡！

AndorisOkay. Please wait for a moment. We ran out of coffee beans, and I just found a new bag.好的，请您稍等呢。咖啡豆不够了，我刚刚翻出了一包新的。

(Hearing their request, Andoris walks out of the storage and deftly loads the coffee beans into the machine.)（听到呼唤的安朵丝从储物间走了出来，熟练地将咖啡豆倒入了机器中。）

AndorisI'm really sorry. We only have a coffee machine here, so I can't hand brew you anything.实在抱歉，这里只有自动咖啡机，暂时没法为大家亲手冲泡呢。

Happy Maintenance Crew MemberOh, that's totally fine. We don't care about such things. We'd even drink motor oil if Miss Andoris were the one who brought it to us!没事没事，我们哪在意这些。只要是安朵丝小姐端过来的，就是机油我们也能喝下去！

AndorisHehe, you're really funny.呵呵，您真的很幽默呢。

(Seeing Andoris laughing and joking with the maintenance crew, 416 tenses up again after having calmed down.)（看着与维修人员们说笑的安朵丝，HK416那原本恢复了正常状态的心智再次紧绷起来。）

(Just then, Andoris also notices her entering the rest area and greets her with a friendly smile.)（而此时安朵丝也发现了走进休息区的她，毫不见外地笑着打了招呼。）

AndorisGood morning... Umm... 416?早安……呃……HK416？

AndorisSorry, I'm not terribly familiar with T-Dolls' imprint system. I apologize if I've made a mistake.抱歉，我对战术人形的烙印型号不是很了解，如果认错了请不要见怪。

416You're not mistaken.你没有认错。

416But—但是——

(416 walks over to the bean bag sofa, grabs onto its ledge, and yanks it up. Gr G11, who was lying cozily on it, is thrown onto the floor following a loud thud.)（HK416走到懒人沙发旁边，抓住边缘一把掀起。原本趴在上边休眠的G11“咚”地滚落在地。）

Gr G11Ugh... What are you doing, 416... You could've just told me to get up nicely...唔……416你突然做什么呀……有话好好说嘛……

416A Doll that should be in the warehouse is freely roaming the base, yet you, a member of 404 tasked with their safekeeping, simply turned a blind eye... You tell me why I should be nice with you?仓库里的人形在据点里随便活动，本该对其有保管义务的404小队成员却对此视而不见……不如你来告诉告诉我，这种情况怎么好好说？

Gr G11I'm not the one who woke Andoris up, it's Dier!又不是我唤醒安朵丝的，是德尔啦！

Gr G11He came over and sneakily powered Andoris up, then left as if he was fleeing from a disaster... Even woke me up in the process.突然跑过来偷偷摸摸启动了安朵丝，然后又像逃难一样离开了……还把我吵醒了一下……

416...Dier is certainly becoming quite bold.……德尔胆子真是越来越大了。

416I happen to have some equipment that needs his calibration. We should pay him a "visit" in person.正好最近有些设备需要他调试，我们不如亲自上门“拜访”。

Gr G11What a hassle... You can go on your own...好麻烦啊……要去你自己去啦……

Gr G11I'll go back to...我还是继续……

(Seeing Gr G11 head for the bean bag sofa, 416 swiftly snatches her by her clothes.)（眼看着G11又要抱住懒人沙发，HK416眼疾手快地抓住了她的衣服。）

(To avoid being snatched away, Gr G11 holds onto one of the table's legs with her hand.)（而为了不被提起来的G11则是反手抓住一边的桌子腿不放。）

(As their tug-of-war plays out, comms to a special encrypted channel are established.)（两人拉扯间，来自特殊加密频道的通讯被接通了。）

(With Leva's image coming through, 416 puts Gr G11 down.)（看到莱娅的影像，HK416将G11放下。）

(Having gained some breathing room, Gr G11 retreats to the safety of hiding behind Andoris.)（而得到喘息空间的G11则像是避难一样闪到了不远处的安朵丝身后。）

Gr G11Safe at last...终于安全了……

AndorisHehe. I don't think 416 meant any harm.呵呵，我想HK416没有恶意的。

LevaGlad to see you two are still close as ever.你们的关系还是那么好呢。

416Is your visual module malfunctioning or what?你的视觉模块是被拆了吗？

416Anyway, great timing. We're just about to pay Dier a visit, given that he activated the Doll in 404's custody without authorization.不过来得正好，我们正准备去找德尔算账，他擅自启动了404小队负责保管的人形。

LevaIt was authorized. I gave him the order.不是擅自啦，是我授意的。

LevaOh, and I also reminded him to be quiet on the job and flee as if his life depended on it, seeing the boatload of trouble he would be in if caught by 416.我还特别提醒了他，一定要悄悄过来，干完就跑，如果被416抓住一定会很惨。

416You think 404's having too much of a "good time" as of late or what?你是觉得404现在的日子还是太清闲了？

LevaThe client says it'll be a while before they can collect the cargo. It'll be a shame not to put such an excellent civilian Doll like Andoris to use.委托方表示还要有一段时间才会来提货，安朵丝这么优秀的民用人形，不用岂不是可惜了？

LevaSee? She can attend to the personnels and look after Gr G11. Isn't that great?你看，安朵丝又能接待维修人员，还能安抚G11不是挺好的嘛。

416...You think I'm a moron?……你把我当傻子吗？

(416 did not raise her voice, yet her tone carries intense intimidation.)（HK416的音量不高，却有着十足的威慑力。）

(The maintenance crew who have been watching from the sidelines sensibly put down their coffee and leave the scene one after another.)（原本看热闹的维修人员们此时也识趣地放下咖啡，鱼贯而出。）

(It's not until only three Dolls remain in the rest area that Leva resumes talking.)（待休息间中只剩下3名人形时，莱娅才再度开口。）

LevaWhat's the matter? Why so grumpy all of a sudden?怎么了呢？突然这么大火气。

416Quit playing dumb. No client is coming to "collect the cargo". Andoris is the new recruit you're trying to bring into 404, isn't she?别在我面前装傻了，根本不存在什么会来提货的委托方，安朵丝就是你想要纳入404小队的新成员吧？

416You thought I wouldn't notice her file tucked in with the stack of resumes you had Lenna bring over?之前你让莱娜带来的那叠简历中也夹着她的信息，你以为我会没发现吗？

LevaOh wow~ Despite all that fuss about being against new members, you sure pay a lot of attention to the matter, 416.嗯~416说着不纳新，其实看得还是挺仔细的嘛。

LevaSee, all this happened because you stubbornly refused to interview any new Dolls, so I had to resort to my methods to get you both in one place.但这也是因为你固执地不肯面试新人形，只能用点手段让你们见面了呀。

416What are you hoping to acheive by putting a civilian Doll in 404? Deliver lunch boxes to the enemy on the frontline?把她一个民用人形塞进404能做什么？在前线给敌人送便当吗？

LevaWell, it's not like it's our first time converting a civilian Doll into a tactical Doll. I'd say Gr G11 certainly qualifies as a formidable combatant now.哎呀，民用人形改装为战术人形的事情我们不是早就做过了嘛。G11现在也算是一名优秀的战斗成员了呀。

416She's different...她不一样……

(416 glances at Gr G11 hiding behind Andoris with half of her head poking out.)（HK416瞥了一眼藏在安朵丝身后，露出半张脸的G11。）

LevaAndoris' model features large storage capacity, ideal as an battlefield intelligence operative. Dier and I are in talks about how to utilize this feature to enhance 404's capabilities.安朵丝的型号拥有大容量的本地存储空间，非常适合作为战场情报人员。我和德尔正在商量如何利用这一特点支援现在的404小队呢。

LevaBesides, she's got a calm and gentle personality, good for smoothing things out when Lenna and I aren't around.而且她的设定性格属于安定温和的类型，我和莱娜不在的时候也能及时协调队伍之中的小摩擦。

LevaShe's also better at holding conversations with humans. I know you aren't the best at dealing with them, huh, 416? Except for a certain Commander~和人类合作伙伴也能更好地交流，416并不是很擅长应对他们吧？除了某位指挥官~

416...Stop changing the subject!……你少岔开话题！

416I know what you're up to. So long as I let these new recruits into the team, you get to sit comfortably in your NOMFA office and dump mission after mission on us to toil away at.别以为我不知道你在打什么算盘，只要我招纳了新成员，你们就可以高枕无忧地待在非军事管理局，再把一车又一车的任务甩给我们。

416Leva, 404 is a squad of four. You may be the leader, but you aren't in charge of everything.莱娅，404是4个人的小队，即便你是队长，这里也不全都是你说了算的。

LevaSo you DO know it's a squad of four after all?原来你也知道这是4个人的小队吗？

(Leva's retort makes 416's expression grow even more somber.)（听到莱娅反问的HK416脸色变得更为阴沉。）

416What are you trying to say?你想表达什么？

LevaYou and Gr G11 have been working over capacity, right? Even to the point of being carried back by drones after you both were nearly destroyed.现在G11和你一直在超负荷工作，之前还有过两人机体近乎报废最后被无人机运回来的情况吧？

LevaI don't suppose that's a good thing for either you or 404's reputation.这对于你们或是对于404的信誉都不会是好事。

416Oh, look who suddenly cares about 404’s reputation—the same leader who took half of our fighting power and rarely comes back.是啊，某个带走了一半战力常年不归队的队长终于想起404的信誉了。

416You think cramming a civilian Doll into the squad will help with 404's reputation?强行塞进来一名民用人形就能给404挽回颜面吗？

416What we need now is a proficient tactical Doll, not a walking hard drive.我们需要的是强大的战术人形而不是大块移动硬盘。

AndorisAn interesting analogy...真是……有趣的比喻呢……

Gr G11...Ugh...………呜…………………

(As her neural cloud is thrown into a disarray by the quarrel, Gr G11 clutches tightly at Andoris' hem. The latter smiles and places her hand over Gr G11's ears to shield her from the noise.)（因为二人争吵而心智紊乱的G11紧紧抓住了安朵丝的衣角，而安朵丝则微笑着捂住了她的耳朵。）

LevaHah... I say it's best for you to chill out for now.哈……我看你还是先冷静一下吧？

LevaI mean, ultimately it's not up to me if Andoris joins 404 or not.安朵丝是否要加入404也的确不是我一个人说了算。

LevaSince you two are going to be the ones working with her on a daily basis.平时要和她一起行动的毕竟是你们两个。

416...Glad you're aware of that.……你知道就好。

LevaOf course I do, but you need to stop acting like a child who refuses to play with others once you've found a "best friend".我当然知道了，只是你也不要总像个有了固定玩伴就不再接受他人的小孩子了。

LevaThrowing a tantrum like a spoiled brat will only hurt those you cherish the most, you know?幼稚地赌气，反而会伤害到你珍视的一切哦？

416Shut up.啰嗦。

(416 hangs the call without thinking twice. As she turns around, she sees Andoris soothing the clearly perturbed Gr G11.)（HK416毫不犹豫地将通讯切断。回头发现安朵丝正安抚着神色不安的G11。）

AndorisShe got frightened. Her neural cloud is a little jumbled right now...这孩子被吓到了呢，刚刚心智都有些混乱……

AndorisAlthough I'm not sure what you two were arguing about, I believe disagreements between companions shouldn't be taken too seriously.虽然不太理解二位到底在为什么争吵，但是队友间出现矛盾都不要太当真了。

AndorisWhen I worked at the café, I too—以前我在咖啡馆的时候也——

416Just leave.你离开吧。

(416 avoids Andoris' eyes.)（HK416避开了安朵丝的注视。）

416You heard our conversation. There's no place for you in 404.刚才的话你都听到了，404不需要你。

416Unlike her back in the day, you can find other places to go besides the café.而且你和当年的这家伙不一样，就算不回咖啡馆，也可以找到其他工作吧？

(After noticing Andoris' silence, 416 awkwardly adds another line.)（发现安朵丝没有反应后，HK416又别扭地补充了一句。）

416...Until you find your next employment, you can live here. You can also back up your neural cloud in 404's server for the time being.……在找到下一份工作前，你可以一直住在这里，本地心智也可以暂时备份到404的私人服务器里。

Andoris...…………

Andoris......……………………

Andoris.........…………………………………………

(Andoris' silence lasts longer than expected; 416 looks at her again with impatience.)（安朵丝沉默的时间已经超出预期，HK416不耐烦地再次看向她。）

(While the smile lingers on the lips of the beautiful Doll, her gentle eyes have grown dull and empty.)（漂亮的人形嘴角依然带着笑意，然而那双柔和的眼睛却变得黯淡且空洞。）

Gr G11Hmm... 416, I think... she crashed?喂……416，她好像……宕机了？

(Just as the two lean in to take a closer look, Andoris suddenly blinks. Her smile gives way to unease and confusion.)（就在两人凑近观察时，安朵丝的眼睛忽然眨了眨，一直微笑着的她显露出不安与茫然。）

(As if unaware of her own crash, she casually picks up where the conversation has been left at.)（然而就像是没有意识到自己的宕机一般，安朵丝自然而然地接上了刚才的对话。）

AndorisSo... I've been fired again?我这是……又被开除了吗？

Andoris - Recollection Node V 安朵丝·回溯节点V

AndorisWhew... We're making great progress. Your orders are really concise and efficient, Commander.呼……进度很快呢，指挥官的指令简洁又高效。

CommanderAnd you're very good at carrying them out—although there are some lags and delays—your executions are accurate and your information analyses very precise. Both have been a great help.你对指令的执行力也很好——虽然有时会出现迟滞和卡顿，但都能执行到位，而且你对环境信息的分析也非常到位，帮大忙了。

Andoris...Commander, are you being considerate of my feelings? You are truly... very kind.……指挥官，在照顾我的感受吗？您真是……真是一个非常好的人呢。

AndorisI am very appreciative of your acceptance, Commander.非常感谢您的包容，指挥官。

CommanderSpeaking of "acceptance"...Sorry for putting it this way, but I never expected Klukai to eventually approve your inclusion.说到“包容”……对不起，这样说可能有点伤人，但我确实没想到可露凯最后会同意你加入呢。

AndorisHehe. Indeed, I was also quite surprised.呵呵，的确，我也很出乎意料。

AndorisI thought I was going to be fired again... Oh, maybe "fired" is not the right word since I wasn't officially employed in the first place.当时我都觉得要再次被解雇了……啊，说是解雇也不太准确，毕竟根本就没被正式雇佣。

CommanderWhat did you do to change Klukai's mind?你做了什么，让可露凯改变了想法？

AndorisI... I feel like I did a lot, but also nothing at the same time...我……我做了很多，但又好像什么都没做……

CommanderWhat does that mean?那是什么意思？

AndorisLet's continue sorting through it, Commander. Seeing my neural records first hand would be more helpful, I think.我们接着梳理吧，指挥官，我想还是让您直接看到心智记录，会更直观。

AndorisI'll entrust you with it.拜托您了。

A Curious Test 奇妙的尝试

Today's plan failed. Despite learning some ambush and CQC techniques through online video tutorials, when it came time to put them into practice I got pinned by Miss 416 before I even realized what was happening. "Looking back, she likely noticed my presence before I first approached her." "Her leg sweep was so fast I barely caught a glimpse of it... However, I did manage to lift Miss 416 off the ground. I suppose that could be considered a small triumph for me."「今天的计划失败了。虽然已经通过网络视频学习了偷袭的搏斗技巧，但在实际的执行中，当我回过神时，我已经被416小姐按在地上了。」 「现在想来，或许在我靠近416小姐时，她就已经察觉了。」 「她用腿绞住我的动作实在是太快了，我甚至来不及看清……但是，我至少把416小姐举起来了。这也算是一个小小的成功吧。」

(Sitting in front of the terminal, Andoris sighs, then frowns at the words she had just typed out on the terminal.)（安朵丝坐在终端前，叹了口气，皱起眉盯着自己刚刚在终端上写下的字。）

AndorisNo, lifting Miss 416 off the ground was just a random reaction I resorted to amidst the confusion; it was not a deliberate act. Besides, I got quickly pinned to the ground afterwards.可是，成功把416小姐举起来，也只是在混乱之中随机做出的动作，不是预先设计好的。而且，很快我就被她按在地上了。

AndorisWhile I knew it wouldn't be as easy as shown in the tutorial, Miss 416 is far beyond my expectations... What should I do now?虽然知道不会像教学视频中展示的那样顺利，但416小姐的实力的确超乎预想……接下来，该怎么办呢？

AndorisSince I gave my word that I'd land a single hit on Miss 416 to prove myself worthy of the position, I can't stop after just one failure... Though I can't just shoot Miss 416 with a real gun, that would be too dangerous...既然决定了要成功击中一次416小姐，以此争取她的认可，得到这个岗位，就不能因为一次失败而停下……虽然，也不能真的用枪击中416小姐啦，那太危险了……

(Andoris pulls up the search engine and aimlessly clicks around, browsing through tactical training videos.)（安朵丝打开搜索页面，没有目的地划拉着鼠标，浏览起战术教学视频。）

Tutorial VideoToday, I'm gonna teach you some useful moves that are particularly helpful when there's a significant disparity between you and your opponent. The key is to target your opponent's weak spots.今天来教大家非常实用的几个动作，特别适用于敌我差距悬殊的情况，要点就是我们要瞄准敌方的弱点。

AndorisTarget the weak spots...? Hmm, makes sense.瞄准弱点……？唔，有道理。

Tutorial VideoGenerally speaking, the human body have these weak spots—the abdomen, the throat, and the eyes. Let me demonstrate you how to quickly hit these areas!一般来讲，人的弱点有这几个位置——腹部、喉部、还有眼睛，如何迅速打击这几个部位，现在为大家演示一下！

AndorisDo Dolls share the same weak spots? The abdomen... our frames look to be quite protected. The neck does look more fragile, but I doubt I can deal any damage with my strength...人形的弱点，也在类似的部位吗？腹部……素体的防御性似乎并不低，脖子的话，就算脆弱，凭我的力量应该也很难造成伤害吧……

AndorisThat leaves one option. Let's see what the video says—那就只剩下一个选择了呢。来试试看吧，视频里是怎么说的呢——

Tutorial VideoSuppose we're face to face with the enemy—假设我们现在面对敌人——

(Andoris stands up and pushes the chair under the table, leaving enough space around her.)（安朵丝站了起来，把椅子推进桌子下面，留出足够的空间。）

AndorisRight, suppose the enemy is here.嗯，假设面对敌人。

Tutorial VideoKeep your lower body stable by spreading your feet slightly apart. Get ready to move around or even jump.下盘要稳，咱们双脚微微分开站立，同时注意躲避，可以跳动起来。

AndorisReady to move around.双脚跳动起来。

Tutorial VideoProtect your face with your left hand, defend yourself—左手护住面部，做好防御——

AndorisLeft hand. Okay, right here. But don't I need to know how Miss 416 will attack first to be able to defend myself?左手，嗯，这个位置，但是要做好防御的话，就要知道416小姐会如何攻击。

AndorisBased on my previous observations, t-there are 17 possible areas I could be hit: f-first protect the n-nose, then c-c-cover the chest, f-forehead, and n-nose—根据我之前的观察，可能被攻击的位置有——有有17处处处——先先保护鼻梁——再挡住胸口——额头——鼻梁——

Tutorial VideoStrike out with your right hand! Go straight for the eyes—Owie, why did you hit me?!右手迅速出击！直取双眼——哎哟，你打我干什么！

(The obvious comedic twist leading into the second half of the video has gone completely over Andoris' head as she is already on the verge of crashing.)（视频后面的反转搞笑部分已经无法映入安朵丝的眼中。她的心智已经在宕机边缘。）

AndorisN-nose, cover f-forehead, h-h-hit—鼻梁——护住额头——打——

(Bam! Andoris punches herself in the face and is knocked to the ground.)（咚的一声，安朵丝给了自己一拳，然后应声而倒。）

Today's plan failed as well. Seeing as I failed to master the technique of attacking an opponent's weak spots head-on, I resorted to an ambush again. However, right as I covered Miss 416's eyes, she immediately turned around and tackled me to the ground. "Combat really is a challenging ordeal. How can I land a hit and prove myself to Miss 416?" "Fortunately, I found a direction to work towards. The video tutorial taught about employing equipment creatively, like using flashbangs to temporarily blind enemies. I've decided to try this approach. I'll prepare for it tonight. Let's keep pushing tomorrow."「今天的计划也失败了。我觉得自己无法掌握从正面进攻对方弱点的技巧，最终仍然选择从背后偷袭。但在我捂住416小姐的双眼时，她立刻就转身将我按在了地上。」 「战斗果然好难啊。究竟怎样，才能击中一次416小姐，让她认可我呢？」 「好在，我找到了优化的方向。视频里说，要灵活使用作战道具，比如闪光弹就能让敌人暂时失明。我决定，尝试一下这个方案。今晚要做好准备才行，明天继续加油吧。」

Today... was another failure. I guess filling the meeting room with mood light isn't as effective as real flashbangs. "Though, when Miss 416 threw me to the ground, my sight did blur for a split second. I guess that does count as the 'blinding effect'? Hehe. I should take note of that." "The tutorial made mention of utilizing the terrain to one's advantage when faced with overwhelming odds—as the saying goes, 'Everything's about the right timing, the right location, and the right people'. That has inspired me. Tomorrow, I'll experiment with a plan that leverages the environment. I hope it'll go smoothly."「今天也仍然……失败了。看来，在会议室挂满气氛射灯，并不能像闪光弹一样有效呢。」 「但是，被416小姐摔在地上的时候，我的视觉模块的确模糊了一下。呵呵，这也算是达到暂时失明的效果了吧？要好好记录下来呢。」 「视频里说，在敌我实力悬殊时，也可以考虑利用环境，正所谓“天时、地利、人和”。这给了我启发，明天，我会尝试利用环境的作战方案。希望能够顺利。」

The distraction tactic failed. I asked Miss Mechanic to help distract Miss 416, but it wasn't effective at all; Miss 416 managed to knock me to the ground the moment I revealed myself. "Does she have additional visual modules besides her eyes?" "Fortunately, after all these days of hard work, I have mastered the base's layout, or at least the sections accessible to an outsider like me... Additionally, I now have a general understanding of Miss 416 and Miss Gr G11's habits. I can make use of this information in future plans." "On a side note, one thing's been bothering me: over the days, despite getting angry and calling my plan foolish, Miss 416 never stopped me from attempting my ambush tactics... What does she mean by that?"「人和作战失败了。我拜托机械师小姐帮忙吸引416小姐的注意力，但这个战术似乎完全没有起效。我一出现，416小姐就把我按在了地上。」 「难道她除了两只眼睛，还有其他的视觉模块？」 「好在，经过这些天的努力，我对临时据点的环境有了一定的了解了，虽然仅限于外来人员可以看到的部分……而且，对416小姐和G11小姐的行为方式、习惯也有大概的认知。或许，接下来的方案可以用得上。」 「另外，还有一点我很在意——这些天来，416小姐似乎并没有阻止我继续偷袭。她当然是发过火，但说的是我的做法太蠢了，而不是让我不要再做了……这，说明什么呢？」

Gr G11I'm so tired... Today was supposed to be a day off, yet we're staying up later than usual...好累啊……明明是没有工作的一天，却弄得比平时还晚……

416Stop complaining. Didn't I just take you out for a ride to relax?别抱怨了，不是都带你出去兜风放松了？

Gr G11You call that relaxing? I still have dust in my mouth. Ptth...那也能叫放松？我现在嘴里都还全是沙子，呸、呸……

416Fine... Hurry up and get in. Time to write today's training report.好了……快进去，把今天的训练复盘做了。

Gr G11Look at what time it is! It's my personal time now! You need to respect my—都这么晚了，现在已经是私人时间了！你得尊重我的私人——

416Hush!嘘！

(416 abruptly stops from dragging Gr G11 into the meeting room. Caught in the momentum, Gr G11 can't stop in time and bumps straight into her.)（原本拽着G11往会议室里走的HK416猛地停住脚步，G11来不及收住脚，直挺挺地撞到她身上。）

Gr G11Ouch! What now? Are we going into the meeting room or not?哎哟！怎么了啊又？不是要进会议室吗？

416Quiet. Haven't you noticed something's up?别出声。你没发现不对劲吗？

Gr G11Huh? Something's up...? Ah, why are all the lights in the meeting room switched off? Are we so low on budget that we need to conserve energy like this?啊？不对劲……会议室的灯怎么没开啊，咱们已经需要节能减排到这个地步了吗？

416No, I told the staffs to leave the lights on and have the equipment ready before they clock out since we'll need the meeting room around this time.不是，我交代过后勤，这个时间要用会议室，让他们准备好设备再下班的。

Gr G11...Ah... D-does that means... Someone snuck in? A thief? No way! This is 404's secret hideout!……啊……难、难道是、是有人溜进来了？小偷？不会吧？这可是404的秘密据点啊！

416Switch to night vision.开夜视。

Gr G11Y-yes!哦、哦！

(With their night vision on, the two see the meeting room is in total disarray; the floor is littered with all sorts of debris in contrast to its usual tidiness.)（二人开启了夜视功能，发现与往日的干净整洁不同，会议室的地板上散落着各种各样的杂物。）

Gr G11Umm... I can't see very well, but... they certainly made a big mess...唔……虽然看得不是特别清晰，但……这也被翻得太乱了吧……

Gr G11Guess a thief really got in. But why would they rummage through a meeting room?真进贼了？但是贼来会议室偷什么啊……

416Careful, we need to take a closer look.小心一点，进去看看。

(416 and Gr G11 slowly enter the meeting room with their weapons trained. 416 comes to a halt when she feels something crack underneath her feet.)（HK416和G11端着枪，小心翼翼地踏进会议室。感受到脚底有什么东西碎裂的感觉，HK416停了下来。）

416...Coffee beans?……咖啡豆？

Gr G11Tea bags and snacks too... I don't get it, 416. Are we sure this is actually not the pantry?这边还有茶包和小零食……我搞不懂了，416，被洗劫的其实是茶水间吗？

416Check the corner, something's there.关注角落，有东西。

Gr G11Oh, okay.哦，好。

(In night vision mode, the two find a "thing" lying on the floor in the corner.)（夜视模式下，二人发现角落的地板上趴着一个黑乎乎的“东西”。）

416...!……！

Gr G11I-is that hair I'm seeing...? I-is that a person? 416—我、我怎么感觉看到头发了啊……那是——是个人吗？416——

(416 does not answer, but rather quietly steps over the scattered debris on the floor and paces toward the "thing" on the ground.)（HK416没有回应，沉默地越过地板上鸡零狗碎的障碍物，向倒在地上的不明物体跑去。）

(She stops a step away from the thing and frowns as she stares at it.)（在距离不明物体一步之遥的距离，她停了下来，盯着地上的东西皱起眉头。）

416...THIS is what you've got in store for your pathetic antic today? Faking an attack in the meeting room?……这就是你今天的蹩脚演出？假装在会议室里受到袭击？

Andoris...……

Gr G11What's going on?到底怎么回事啊？

(Ignoring Gr G11's question, 416 steps forward and gently kicks the "thing" on the ground.)（HK416没有理会G11的呼喊，她走上前，用脚尖轻轻踢了踢地上的人影。）

(While the thing lying on the ground does not change its position, it visibly stiffens.)（趴在地上的东西虽然没有改变姿势，但肉眼可见地僵硬了起来。）

416Not getting up yet?还不起来？

Andoris...Hiya!……嘿！

(Andoris slowly sits up, intending to strike the side of 416's neck with a hand chop.)（安朵丝动作缓慢地坐起身，伸出手，看起来似乎是想用手刀攻击HK416的侧颈。）

(416 irritably catches her hand, swivels it around and pins her to the ground.)（416一脸不耐烦地抓住她的手掌，一拧身就把她按在了地上。）

416I'll pass on the high-five.如果你是想和我击掌，那还是不必了。

AndorisHehe, as expected of Miss 416. Impressive as always.呵呵，不愧是416小姐，真的很厉害。

416So, do you still need us to act out this nonsensical skit with you?所以呢，陪你表演情景剧这种无意义的事情可以结束了吗？

AndorisI'm afraid you'll have to keep me company for a little longer, Miss 416.恐怕，还要请416小姐再陪我一会哦。

(While Andoris' face is pressed against the ground, thus making it difficult for her to speak, 416 sees the glimpse of a calm smile on her face.)（安朵丝的脸被按在地上，说话有点吃力，但HK416却从她的脸上察觉到一丝从容的微笑。）

416...What?……什么？

Gr G11Listen to me, 416— Eeeeek—Waaaaah!你理理我啊416——噫——哇啊啊啊！

416Gr G11?! I told you to stay away—G11？！不是让你别过来——

Gr G11I-I can't stop! Get out of the way, 416—Owie!我——我停不下来！416你快闪开——唉哟！

(With Gr G11 stumbling towards her in the pitch-black meeting room, 416 fails to push her aside as both her hands are occupied with holding Andoris down. The two collide violently, triggering another round of ruckus.)（在漆黑的会议室中，G11颠三倒四地冲过来，正拧着安朵丝的416来不及腾出手推开她，两人狠狠地撞在一起，又引发了一轮地震山崩。）

416Y-you— Enough!你、你们——够了！

(Click. 416 flips the light on. The blinding incandescent glare suddenly fills the meeting room. Andoris narrows her eyes to adjust to the light.)（啪的一声，HK416拍下电灯开关，刺眼的白炽灯照亮了会议室，安朵丝眯了眯眼睛以适应光线。）

(In her gradually clearing vision, she sees Gr G11 scrambling to stand up.)（在她逐渐清晰的视野中，G11正手脚并用地从地上爬起来。）

Gr G11Hmm, what's this? It's all slippery and smells kinda good... It's coffee?唔，这是什么，滑溜溜的，还有点香……咖啡？

Gr G11Woah—You've got them all over your face and hair, 416! Did you take a swim in a coffee pool?呜哇——416你的脸上头上还有头发上全都是！你在咖啡里打滚了吗？

416...……

AndorisLooks like my plan is a success. Though it's with coffee, it still counts as "hitting" Miss 416, right?看来计划成功了，虽然用的是咖啡，但这也算是击中416小姐了吧？

Gr G11Eh? All this was part of your plan, Andoris? But where did the coffee came from...哎，这是安朵丝设计好的吗？不过这咖啡到底是哪来的……

(As Gr G11 looks around, a crushed coffee can rolls to her feet.)（G11左顾右盼之间，一个被踩得半瘪的罐装咖啡罐子滚到了她的脚边。）

Gr G11Ohh... Guess it came from the can that I stepped on... Woooah!哦，原来是我踩到的罐装咖啡啊……呜哇！

(416 stomps on the can, crushing it completely. The remaining liquid spurts out and splashes onto Gr G11.)（HK416一脚踩在咖啡罐子上，原本还能勉强滚动的罐子彻底瘪了下去，剩余的咖啡液再次喷出，溅到了G11身上。）

416Oh, so you only realized it now?现在知道了？

416How about I send you to the circus tomorrow if you're that good at stepping on cans?这么会踩罐子，明天送你去马戏团怎么样？

Gr G11Uuu... It's not like I meant to. I was in a hurry, and it was so dark in here... Fortunately, what Andoris left on the ground was a just can of coffee and not a landmine, otherwise it would've be over for us!唔……我也不想的嘛，太着急了，当时又那么黑……不过，还好安朵丝放在地上的是罐装咖啡，要是地雷就完蛋了！

416So you even know it'll be over?你还知道会完蛋？

AndorisIt's okay, Miss 416. No need to get upset. I think Gr G11 is just worried about you, which is why she rushed over.好啦，416小姐消消气，我想G11她也是因为关心您所以才着急过来的。

Gr G11Besides, it's not like hazardous items really are going to be in the meeting room...就是，还要被你说……再说，会议室里怎么样也不会有危险品吧……

AndorisHaha, I wouldn't leave things of that nature in here. After all, my real intent isn't to hurt you two.呵呵，我不会放那种东西的，毕竟真的伤到两位也不好。

416...……

Gr G11Well, but you're also quite the genius for making a fool out of 416 like this, Andoris.哎呀，不过能让416这么狼狈，安朵丝也很厉害了嘛。对不对？

(Gr G11 tugs at 416's sleeve.)（G11拽了拽416的袖子。）

416Pretty rich coming from you.你不是也挺厉害的吗？

(416 glares at Gr G11 and the latter wisely shuts up. She then maintains her cold expression while turning her attention on Andoris.)（HK416瞪了一眼G11，后者识相地抿紧了嘴巴，接着她维持着冷淡的表情看向安朵丝。）

416All this just to join 404, huh?你，做这些，就是想加入404对吧？

AndorisYes, Miss 416. Please give me an opportunity.是的，416小姐，请给我一个入队测试的机会。

(416 takes two deep breaths before snatching the gun from Gr G11's hand and throwing at Andoris.)（HK416深呼吸了两次，一把抢过G11手里的枪，扔到安朵丝怀里。）

416Take this. And follow me to the live-fire training ground.拿上，跟我去实弹训练场。

AndorisWe're...?这是……？

416Didn't you want a chance? Then it's time to stop your ridiculous antics and face me in proper combat. Come out on top, and I'll let you go through the acceptance test.不是想要入队测试的机会吗？那就别搞这些滑稽的表演了，堂堂正正地与我对战，赢了就让你接受入队测试。

Gr G11Ehh? What the heck are you doing, 416? Don't you know how much easier the acceptance test is compared to defeating you?! Didn't we just agree—哎，416你要干嘛，入队测试不比打败你简单啊？我们不是才说好——

416Mind your own business... Go get a mop and clean the room up. If I see a single coffee bean on the ground when I'm back, prepare to say goodbye to all your games' save files.管好你自己吧……去找拖把收拾干净，我回来的时候要是再看到一颗咖啡豆，就把你那些游戏存档全部销毁。

Gr G11What's any of this have to do with my save files...关游戏存档什么事啦……

(Ignoring Gr G11's grumbles, 416 storms out of the meeting room furiously.)（HK416没再理会嘟嘟囔囔的G11，怒气腾腾地走出了会议室。）

(Andoris pats Gr G11 on the shoulder reassuringly.)（安朵丝安抚地拍了拍G11的肩膀。）

AndorisIt's okay, Miss Gr G11. I'll clean it up with you once I'm back.没事的，G11小姐。等我回来帮您一起打扫。

Gr G11You need to be able to come back first... 416's really terrifying when she's worked up like that, so don't try to take her head-on... Although she probably won't actually harm you...那你也要回得来才行……416正在气头上，很可怕的，你别跟她硬碰硬啊……虽然她应该也不会真的伤害你啦……

AndorisYes, I understand. I'll take my chances.嗯，我明白，我会把握好机会的。

Gr G11It better be like that... Speaking of, do you even know how to use a gun?最好是真的有机会给你把握……唉，说起来你会用枪吗？

(Andoris holds the weapon up in her hand and examines it carefully.)（安朵丝端起手上的枪，左右端详了一下。）

AndorisI've watched the tutorials, so I know the basics: just aim at the target through the scope and pull the trigger, right?我看过教学视频，常识部分我是了解的，在瞄准镜里瞄准目标，然后扣扳机就行了吧？

Gr G11...Eh...……唉……

416Are you coming or not?还去不去？

AndorisI'll be right there.这就来。

(Andoris smiles at Gr G11 and follows 416 out of the room. Visibility worried, Gr G11 follows her to the door and shouts.)（安朵丝对G11微笑了一下，就追着HK416的脚步离开了。G11担忧地追到了门口，对着她的背影大声叮嘱。）

Gr G11Pay attention to the recoil... Make sure the gun is pressed up against your shoulder!要注意后坐力啊……枪记得顶在肩窝！

(Unsure whether Andoris can even remember her advices, Gr G11 withdraws her gloomy gaze back to the mess in the meeting room.)（不确定安朵丝能不能记住，G11愁容满面地收回视线，转身看着一地狼藉的会议室。）

Gr G11...Sigh.…………唉。

Andoris - Recollection Node VII 安朵丝·回溯节点VII

CommanderAndoris?安朵丝。

AndorisYes, Commander, I'm right here. Why so serious all of a sudden? Are you feeling tired?我在，指挥官，怎么突然这么严肃？是累了吗？

AndorisI have a coffee grinder here. Let me brew you a cup.我这里有手磨咖啡机，我给您泡一杯吧。

CommanderNo, it's not that I'm tired, but uhhh... Sure. I'll have a cup, thanks.虽然不是因为累了……但是，唔，麻烦给我来一杯吧。

CommanderWhat I want to say is, have you ever considered optimizing your neural cloud? Not that there's anything wrong with the way you are, but if the persistent crashing bothers you a lot, I can help you with that.其实我是想问，你有没有想过优化一下心智系统？我不是在说你现在这样不好，只是如果宕机的问题让你感到非常困扰，我可以帮你。

(Andoris flashes a look of surprise before turning her focus back on what she's doing without responding right away.)（安朵丝一瞬间露出了惊讶的表情，但她立刻又专注在自己手头的动作上，没有立刻回复。）

(She sits down beside me with a gentle smile and a steaming cup of coffee ready to be served.)（当一杯热气腾腾的咖啡准备好时，她带着温柔的微笑坐到我身旁。）

AndorisI really can't thank you enough... for everything you've done for me, Commander.指挥官，您这么为我费心……真不知道，怎么感谢您才好。

CommanderDon't think of it that way. As I've said before, it is my responsibility as your Commander.不用这么想，就像我之前说的，这是我身为指挥官应该做的。

AndorisNo, it's precisely with my experience under numerous employers that I've learned... People like you who deeply care about Dolls are few and far between.不，正因为我经历过多任雇主……我非常清楚，像您这样关怀人形的人并不多见。

CommanderI just... want everyone here to have an easier time. What do you think of that?我只是……想让大家都过得轻松点。所以，你怎么想？

AndorisWe are very grateful for your kindness, Commander. However, if my neural cloud is to be optimized, my storage capacity will be affected, right?非常感谢您的好意，指挥官，但是，如果要优化心智系统，我的本地储存空间一定会被挤压吧？

AndorisIf that's the case, I will no longer be able to perform my task of info gathering and analysis as effectively as I do now.那样的话，我就不能很好地执行环境数据收集和分析这项工作了。

AndorisMoreover, with everyone's help, my marksmanship has somewhat improved... Therefore, I think it's best to maintain the status quo for now.而且，经过大家的帮助，我的射击准度已经有所提升……所以，我觉得暂时维持现状就好。

CommanderOkay, if you feel that way. To be frank, I also think storage capacity and data analysis are where your strengths lie.嗯，你能这么想就好，其实我也觉得，你的本地储存和数据分析能力是你的优势所在。

CommanderI will keep an eye out for any emerging technologies that can fix your crashing problem without compromising your current capabilities.如果之后出现了更先进的技术，能让你在维持现有优势的情况下减少宕机的情况，我会帮你留意的。

AndorisCommander...指挥官……

CommanderAll right, I've heard enough compliments today.好了，感谢的话我已经听了很多了。

CommanderLet's keep sorting through the neural records, shall we? I'd like to know what happened next.继续梳理心智记录吧？我还想知道后面发生了什么。

AndorisYeah, sure thing.嗯，好的。

The Thoughts of Two People 两人的想法

Angry CustomerIt's been an entire hour and my meal hasn't been served yet! This "Andoris" is still standing there like a piece of junk!整整一个小时了！我要的套餐还没端上来！这个叫安朵丝的还僵在这里像块废铁一样！

Angry CustomerWhere's your manager? Get me your manager!店长呢，我要见店长！

AndorisI'm terribly sorry, let me...抱歉，我马上为您……

CentaureissiI'll take care of it.我来吧。

(Facing the angry customer, Centaureissi shields Andoris behind her.)（桑朵莱希面对愤怒的顾客，将安朵丝挡在身后。）

CentaureissiSorry, dear customer, but it's currently peak dining hour and we are short-staffed. We sincerely apologize for the wait.十分抱歉，现在是用餐的高峰时段，店里人手不足，让您久等了。

CentaureissiYour meal will be served shortly, and we'll do our utmost to provide you with excellent service.您的餐点马上为您送上，我们也会全力为您服务。

(Hearing the commotion, Manager Springfield also emerges from behind the bar, holding a cup of steaming latte.)（听到动静，店长春田也从吧台后面走出来，手里端着一杯冒着热气的拿铁。）

SpringfieldOur deepest apologies for taking up your time. This latte is on me.真抱歉耽误了您的时间，这杯拿铁是我请您的。

AndorisSir, I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused. I will do my best to compensate you...是的，先生，非常抱歉给您造成了麻烦，您的损失我会尽力赔偿……

Angry CustomerYou? Compensate me?! You think you can make up for the time I wasted because of you?!你来赔偿？我被浪费的时间，你赔得了吗？！

AndorisI—我——

(With the clatter of wind chimes, two more customers walk into the café.)（随着一阵风铃声响起，咖啡馆内又走进了两位客人。）

??See, Kalin. Springfield's place is very lively.格琳，你看，春田这里很热闹嘛。

KalinaDon't say that, Leva.莱娅，别这样说。

(Seeing the two who just walked in, Centaureissi glances at Springfield with a look of "leave this to me", sparing her to greet the two.)（看到进来的两人，桑朵莱希递给春田一个“交给我”的眼神。于是春田迎上门口的两人。）

SpringfieldLeva, and Kalina...? Are you... out on a business trip again?莱娅，还有格琳娜……？你们这是……又来这里出差了？

LevaYeah, we'll be around for a while, so I figured we'd drop by. Kalin really misses your hand-brewed coffee.是呀，因为还有一段时间，所以就先过来待一会。格琳很想念春田亲手做的咖啡哦。

(Springfield guides the two to an empty table. She then looks back to make sure Centaureissi had appeased the angry customer before raising her hand to call Andoris over.)（春田将两人引到一张空着的桌子旁，回头看了看，确认暴怒的顾客已经被桑朵莱希安抚下来，抬手唤来安朵丝。）

SpringfieldThis is Andoris, our newest employee. And these two are... Kalina and Leva.这是安朵丝，我们这里的新员工。这两位是……格琳娜和莱娅。

AndorisPleased to meet you both.很高兴认识二位。

LevaSo you're the newcomer. No wonder you look so flustered.原来是新员工，我说怎么看起来手忙脚乱的呢。

AndorisI'm terribly sorry... I have embarrassed myself before you.非常抱歉……让两位见笑了。

SpringfieldAndoris has worked here for some time now, she's very meticulous and attentive. Using her large storage capacity, she can accurately track each customer's preferences and their birthdays.安朵丝在这里工作有一段时间了。工作态度非常认真，平常也很细心，配合她大容量的本地存储空间，安朵丝能够将每一位顾客的喜好和生日都准确记录下来。

LevaSounds like she's a perfect fit for the job. But I guess it's another story in practice.听起来很适合这里，但看起来，实际情况不是这样哦。

SpringfieldWell...这……

AndorisManager Springfield has taught me everything I need to know about the job, but my own performance issue prevents me from handling more complex and unexpected requests from customers. Even when it comes to the menu, I've only learned how to brew coffee. It's not Manager Springfield's fault.工作内容店长都好好教过我，但因为我的性能存在缺陷，所以无法处理客人们复杂的突发性需求。就连咖啡馆里的餐品，现在也只学会了泡咖啡，不是店长的问题哦。

LevaOh, I see. So you're not a good fit.这样啊，那就是不合适嘛。

KalinaLeva.莱娅。

(Kalina stops Leva from going further, yet an enigmatic smile remains on Leva's face as she strokes her chin.)（格琳娜制止了莱娅，莱娅则保持着令人捉摸不透的微笑，摸了摸下巴。）

LevaSay, how about having her join 404, Springfield?春田，要不把她让给我们404吧？

SpringfieldEh? Andoris? But...哎？安朵丝吗？可是……

KalinaLeva!莱娅！

(Kalina's voice now carries an angry undertone, yet Leva simply shrugs indifferently and turns her attention back at Andoris.)（格琳娜的声音带上了一丝怒意，莱娅则依旧无所谓地耸了耸肩，转头看向安朵丝。）

LevaAndoris—oh, by the way, hold your questions about 404 for now—what are your thoughts on working here?安朵丝——啊，404是什么你先别问——在这里工作，你是怎么想的？

AndorisMe...?我……吗？

(Andoris falls silent for a moment.)（安朵丝沉默了一会。）

AndorisI... I will try my best to keep up with everyone. Though it may take some time, I don't want to leave.我……我会努力跟上大家的节奏，虽然还需要一些时间，但我不想离开这里。

LevaYou should realize that a place that makes things harder for both sides is probably not where you belong. Seeing how swiftly you guys handled that scuffle, I can only assume what happened back there was the norm, right?让双方都勉强的地方可谈不上归宿哦？看你们轻车熟路的样子，刚才的事情恐怕是常态了吧？

Andoris...……

LevaThink more flexibly. If this place isn't the right fit for you, why not consider my suggestion?思维可以活跃一点，既然这里不合适，不如考虑一下我的建议？

AndorisI...我……

(Andoris turns toward Springfield with a somewhat bewildered look on her face. Springfield pats her on the shoulder and helps her straighten her apron.)（安朵丝表情有些茫然地转头看向春田，春田拍了拍她的肩膀，帮她把围裙扶正。）

SpringfieldI have no intention of letting you go, but you have the final say.我没有辞退你的想法，但决定权在你自己。

LevaWorking at the café won't let you reach your full potential, but 404 will.咖啡馆的工作无法发挥你的优势，但是404可以哦。

LevaDo you want to find a place where you're truly needed, Andoris?安朵丝也希望找到一个真正需要自己的地方吧？

AndorisWill I... be needed at 404?在404……我会被需要吗？

(Leva chuckles.)（莱娅笑了起来。）

LevaOf course you will be. But you have to put up with a certain sharp-tongued yet soft-hearted Doll's harsh critiques first. But believe me, she means no harm, and she's actually quite reliable You'll be fine, Andoris.当然，不过可能会遭到一些嘴硬心软的人形的言语攻击就是了。但她绝对没有恶意，并且非常可靠。安朵丝这种性格没问题的。

LevaSo, want to give it a try?怎么样，要不要试一下？

(With her hair all messed up, Andoris cowers in the room's corner with Gr G11's gun clutched tightly in her arm. Her body is covered in bruises while bullet holes littered her surroundings.)（安朵丝头发凌乱，怀里抱着G11的枪，狼狈地蜷缩在角落，她的素体上布满了擦伤，身旁是密密麻麻的弹孔。）

416Join 404, and this will be your everyday life.如果加入404，这就是你的日常生活。

416The real battlefield is nothing like your childish antics.真正的战场，跟你那些小打小闹不一样。

Andoris...……

(416 sees Andoris' blank stare and assumes she has crashed again. Irritated, she yanks the Gr G11 assault rifle out of her hands and walks out the door without noticing the change on Andoris' face.)（HK416看安朵丝眼神空洞，以为她又宕机了，烦躁地一把拿过她怀里的G11突击步枪，自顾自地往门外走，所以没有注意到身后安朵丝的神情变化。）

Andoris...A new world... But will this one need me?……不一样的世界……可是，这个世界会需要我，对吗？

(Andoris slowly stands up, then looks down at her battered body. The weight and stiffness of the assault rifle still linger in her arms.)（安朵丝站起身，低头看了看自己狼狈的素体。她的手上还残留着突击步枪沉重坚硬的触感。）

Andoris...If so, I want to bear witness to the kind of world that needs me...……即然这样，我就想看看，这个需要我的世界……

(416 opens the door and is greeted by Gr G11 who was peering through the gap with a mop in hand.)（HK416一打开门，就看到握着拖把从门缝里往里看的G11。）

Gr G11It's over? How did it go?结束了吗？怎么样啊？

(416 shoves the gun into Gr G11's arms and strides forward.)（HK416把枪塞进G11怀里，大步流星地向前走。）

416She's alive.没死。

Gr G11Oh...哦……

416Can't say if she's scared senseless though.但有没有吓傻不好说。

Gr G11Hmm... Didn't you decide to give Andoris a chance when we were in the Yellow Zone earlier? Why do all of this then...?欸……刚才我们在黄区吃沙子的时候，你不是都想好要给安朵丝一个机会了吗？你为什么还要这样啊……

416...……

(The heavy bike comes to a stop on top of a small hill. A convoy of vehicles is parked in the valley below, surrounded by a few scattered Dolls busy doing maintenance work.)（重机车停在一处小山丘上。丘陵下方停驻着一组车队，周围有零星的几名人形在负责整备。）

(Their frames are covered in varying degrees of damage with signs of sloppy modifications.)（她们身上遍布着或多或少的伤痕以及粗劣的改装痕迹。）

(A number of them can barely move coherently; undoubtedly the result of haphazard remodeling done on civilian Dolls.)（甚至个别人形连行动都有些僵硬，显然这是在民用基础上随意改装的产物。）

(One of them quickly spots 416 and Gr G11.)（其中的一名人形发现了HK416与G11。）

(Her "fire control module"—clearly ripped from some random piece of military hardware and forcibly welded onto her—suddenly swivels around. The mechanical eyeball rotates unnaturally, seemingly about to fall out of its socket.)（她将那像是从某种军用机械上直接拆过来强行安装上去的“射击模块”转了过来，似乎马上就要从眼眶中脱落的机械眼球，不自然地转动着。）

416...………………

(416 shows no reaction. She stands there and stares into those empty eyes.)（HK416没有任何反应，只是站在高处与那空洞的眼睛对视着。）

(Once the Doll confirms 416 presents no threat, she drops her guard and returns to her task without looking back.)（人形确认了HK416并非威胁后，便取消了警戒，不再看她们一眼。）

Gr G11Whoa... It's as if they're Frankenstein's monsters...呜哇……真是改得乱七八糟的……

(Gr G11 has just woken up from hibernation, rubbing her eyes as she walks over to 416.)（G11刚从休眠中唤醒，揉着眼睛走到HK416身边。）

Gr G11Geez... If Leva hadn't taken us in, would we have ended up like them by now?好可怕啊……如果当初不是莱娅把我们带回来，我们现在会不会也是那副样子了？

416You're thinking too highly of yourself.那你想太多了。

416I may end up like them, but only because I was built as a T-Doll. You, on the other hand, are at best a component they would bolt onto me, and most likely the most useless one.作为战术人形被生产出来的我可能是这样，但你估计只是我身上的一块零件而已——大概率还是最没用的那一块。

Gr G11Sure, sure. I AM useless after all...是啊，我就是没用啊……

Gr G11If that's what you think of me, why not hurry up and recruit some other Dolls so I can stay at the base and nap all day...既然知道，你为什么不赶紧招一些人形进来，这样我就能一直留在据点里睡觉了……

(Instead of firing back as she usually does, 416 remains silent.)（本该像往常一般回击的HK416，此时却沉默了。）

(Gr G11 does not disturb her, nor does she return to the bike. Instead, she stays by 416's side, just as she does on the battlefield.)（G11没有打扰她，但也没有回到车上，而是选择就这样陪伴在她身边，一如两人在战场上那样。）

416Do you remember the original meaning of 404, Gr G11?G11，你还记得404原本的含义吗？

Gr G11...The original meaning? As in "those who don't exist"?……原本的含义？你是说“不存在”？

416Yes.嗯。

416Four Dolls who, for various reasons, found themselves unable to return to any organization and were thus deemed "non-existent" by the world.最初的4个人，都是因为各种原因已经无法融入任何组织，被这个世界判定为“不存在”的人形。

416Willingly or not, we came together, braved battle after battle, and fought tooth and nail to secure the freedom we now hold.无论是否出于自愿，我们聚在一起，穿过枪林弹雨，几乎是用抢的为自己换来了现在的这片空间。

416But does that even mean anything for an ordinary Doll?但这对于普通的人形来讲，有意义吗？

Gr G11Hah... You're increasingly acting weird as of late, 416... Has Leva and Lenna leaving put too much pressure on you?哈……416果然最近变得越来越奇怪了……是因为莱娅她们暂时离队压力太大了吗？

Gr G11Have YOU contemplated all this back when you decided to remodel me? Surely not...当年改造我的时候，你也想了这么多吗？绝对没有吧……

Gr G11Is that the real reason why you're rejecting Andoris?这就是你拒绝安朵丝的真正原因？

416In part, yes.算是其中的一部分。

416We had no choice back then. But Andoris still does...那时的我们没得选择，可是安朵丝还有……

416This place may be a safe haven for us, but for her?这里对于我们来说或许是幸运的避难所，但是对于她呢？

Gr G11But looking at Andoris, I don't think her prior jobs were all sunshine and rainbows either... She crashed at the mere mention of the word "fired"...可我看安朵丝那个样子，之前的工作也都很不顺利吧……一说到开除，她都宕机了哎……

Gr G11Maybe she's better off staying with 404, just as Springfield and Leva concluded.万一真像春田和莱娅判断的那样，她适合留在404呢？

Gr G11Let's at least give her a fire control core and see if it works out... We can find her a stable job if it doesn't, or keep her at the base as logistics...至少先装个火控核心试试呗……不行我们再给她找个稳定工作，或者就留在据点当后勤也挺好的不是么……

416404 is not a shelter. Randomly recruiting or remodeling Dolls is irresponsible to both sides.404不是收容站，随便招纳一些人形进来改装对双方都不是负责的行为。

Gr G11Geez... As if 404 is some legitimate organization. You're being so textbook about it that it's starting to feel weird!天啊……404哪里是什么正经小队，你这样一板一眼思考问题反倒显得不正常了哎！

(Gr G11 scratches her head dramatically.)（G11夸张地揉搓着自己的脑袋。）

Gr G11Besides, Leva hand picked her. We should value her judgment, right?而且，安朵丝是莱娅选中的人，我想还是可以赌一把她的眼光吧？

416Her judgment?她的眼光？

416I bet she's just in for the price-per-Doll value.我看她只是贪图性价比。

Gr G11Umm... But all of us that she chose back then are alive and well today.唔……但当初她选中的人，现在可都好好活着呢。

Gr G11Can't hurt to try...试一下也没什么不好……

Gr G11You know... As they say, "The only true failure is not trying at all. Don't let your doubts win before the fight even begins."呃……正所谓“如果自己说着做不到，而什么都不去做的话，那就更是什么都做不到”。

(Upon hearing such a straight-faced statement, 416 glances at Gr G11.)（听到如此正经的说法，HK416斜了G11一眼。）

416Where did you get that from?这又是哪里抄来的台词？

Gr G11The newest anime I watched. Cool, huh?最近刚看的动画片，很帅吧？

416Of course...我就知道……

Gr G11Oh, they're leaving.哎，她们要走了。

(The rattling sound of engine start-ups comes from below the hill. The bounty hunters yell at the Dolls to get back on the vehicles.)（丘陵下传来引擎启动的声音。赏金猎人们正呼喝着周围的人形回到车上。）

Impatient Bounty HunterHurry up! Bunch of worthless scraps.都快点！一个两个没屁用。

Impatient Bounty HunterFuck, we're really shit out of luck these days. First a Collapse storm and then a bunch of Varjagers?干，最近真他妈晦气，先是遇上坍塌风暴后又被瓦良格帮的那群混蛋摆了一道。

Impatient Bounty HunterHalf of the Dolls got totaled. How are we supposed to take on any commissions like this?随车的人形毁了得有一半，这以后还怎么接委托。

Carefree Bounty HunterNo worries. The Boss has already contacted some underground brokers to get us more illegal Dolls! Worst case scenario, we just stick through for now.不用担心，头儿那边已经委托暗商去尽快搞点非法人形过来了！横竖先挨过这段时间。

Impatient Bounty HunterSure. Wanna go have some fun later?行吧，一会去哪乐呵乐呵？

(The rude man pushes the last Doll onto the vehicle, then climbs in himself before pulling down the heavy blast door.)（粗鲁的男人将最后一个人形推进车后，自己也钻了进去，并将厚重的防护门拉下。）

(Following the engine's roar, the convoy departs, gradually shrinking into a tiny black dot in the drifting sand.)（伴随着一阵轰鸣，车队驶动，在飞沙中逐渐变为一个小小的黑点。）

(On top of the hill, Gr G11 and 416 also return to the bike.)（丘陵之上，G11和HK416也已经坐回到机车上。）

416Sit tight.坐稳了。

416And... patch me into Dier's comm channel.然后……帮我接入和德尔的通讯频道。

(416 accelerates to full throttle, and the heavy bike speeds off in the opposite direction.)（HK416将油门拧到底，重型机车向着完全相反的方向扬长而去。）

(With a mop in one hand and her gun in the other, Gr G11 can barely keep up with 416's brisk pace while nervously observing her sullen expression.)（一手握着拖把杆，一手拎着枪的G11勉强追赶着大步流星往前走的HK416，并小心翼翼地观察着面色铁青的她。）

Gr G11Did you change your mind about Andoris staying...? Please, say something, 416...你是不是反悔了，不想要安朵丝了呀……你说句话啊416……

416I did not change my mind.我没有反悔。

416But if that was all it took to scare the life out of her, then she'd be crying and begging to resign in two days tops. We'll be on a mission by then, and who's going to fill in for her? You?要是刚才那种情况就能把她吓成那个样子，就算让她加入，没过两天她也会哭着要辞职的。到时候我任务都接了，你来补她的窟窿？

Gr G11Ohh... But I don't think that will be the case though... Didn't you also say it's quite remarkable of her to have persevered all these days just for an opportunity?哦……可是，应该不会吧？你不是也说，她这么多天坚持不懈要争取一个机会，还挺难得的。

(Gr G11 scratches her head and looks back at the training ground. Andoris has yet to come out, nor has she made any sound.)（G11挠了挠头，回头看了看训练室。安朵丝仍然没有从其中走出来，也没发出任何声音。）

416Even three-year-olds can come up with the same tricks. What gives? I only said that because... Well... she is indeed making progress, so I decided to give her a chance.那些恶作剧，三岁的小孩都能想出来，有什么用？我是看她这些天……多少也有些进步，才打算给她机会的。

416Alright. Stop staring at it. Are you done mopping the floor yet? Just a friendly reminder, you still have your training report to do.行了别看了，地拖完没有？免费提醒你一下，你的训练复盘还没做。

Gr G11Why do you still remember that...?你怎么还记得啊……

(Still not fully at ease, Gr G11 scratches her head again.)（G11挠了挠头，还是不太放心。）

Gr G11But what if Andoris is still willing to attempt the acceptance test? What are you going to do, 416?但是，416，如果安朵丝仍然愿意接受入队测试，你准备怎么办？

(416 stops, but does not turn around. She pauses for a moment before answering.)（HK416停了下来，但没有回头。她顿了顿，开口说道。）

416...In that case, it won't hurt to let her try.……那样的话，让她试试也没什么不行。

Into the New World 踏入新世界

AndorisThis is a simulation of the Yellow zone, right?这里模拟的是黄区的景色吧？

AndorisLevel II really is a fascinating place...二级平层，真的好神奇呢……

416Hope you can keep up that positive attitude of yours after you're turned into Swiss cheese.希望对方把你打成筛子的时候，你的心态还能这么好。

Andoris......…………………………

Gr G11Stop spooking her... Look, she's crashed again.你不要吓唬她啦……你看，她现在都宕机了。

416Hmph, the acceptance test will begin in five minutes. There won't be any delays to accommodate for someone's technical issues.哼，入队测试五分钟后开始，不会因为任何人宕机而延迟。

Gr G11Come on...怎么这样……

AndorisSorry. There's a lot of information in here. Did I crash again?抱歉，这里的信息有点多，我是不是又宕机了？

Gr G11Yeah... Fortunately it didn't last long...啊……还好，这次宕机时间不长……

Gr G11I'm actually surprised you agreed to take the test, Andoris... I thought you'd be intimidated by how hostile 416 acted back then...安朵丝你愿意接受入队测试，我还挺意外的……我还以为你会被粗暴的416吓到……

AndorisI mean... Miss 416 did not actually hurt me.嗯……416小姐其实没有真的伤到我。

AndorisAnd I still want give it another try, because someone said this is where I am needed—而且我还是想再试一试，因为有人说，这里会是需要我——

416Do you want to carry on with that tea party there, or would you rather hear my briefing on the test?你们要继续开茶话会，还是听我讲测试概要？

AndorisMy apologies, Miss 416. Please go ahead.抱歉，416小姐，请讲。

416Gr G11 will be your acting teammate for the duration of the test. The objective is to eliminate the fleeing target in the canyon within the time limit. Operating procedure is for you two to figure out; I only care about the result.G11是你这次测试的协作队友，测试内容是在限定时间内击毙在峡谷中逃窜的目标单位，怎么做你们两个自己想办法，我只要结果。

AndorisAnd you, Miss 416?那416小姐呢？

416I'm in charge of monitoring, evaluating, and scoring your behaviors.我负责观察你的反应，评判，打分。

AndorisUnderstood. I'll do my best!明白。我会尽力的！

416Whatever floats your boat. I'll say again: I only care about the result.随便你，再说一次，我只要结果。

(Having said that, 416 ends the transmission. With her rifle tightly clutched in hand, Andoris scans the surroundings.)（说完，HK416就切断了通讯。安朵丝紧紧握着手中的枪，扫视着周围的环境。）

Gr G11A certain elite T-Doll is taking her combat capabilities for granted again... Don't worry, Andoris. It's just an average ambush, there's nothing complicated.某个精英人形又把战斗当成理所当然的技能了……安朵丝你不要紧张，就是普通的伏击战而已，很简单的。

Gr G11Huh, what's your imprint model?唔，你的烙印型号是什么？

AndorisIt's G36K-KSK。是G36K-KSK。

Gr G11Why that one? Is it compatible with you?为什么选这个？和你的适配程度高吗？

AndorisWhy...? Because I heard it's similar to Miss Centaureissi's G36. If Miss Centaureissi is that strong, this one can't be that bad, right?为什么……因为，听上去和桑朵莱希小姐的G36很像哦。桑朵莱希小姐很强，那这个型号应该也很强吧？

Gr G11...Wait. That's how you came to your conclusion?……啊？还能这么推断呢……

AndorisWhat should we do now, Miss Gr G11?G11小姐，我们现在要怎么做呢？

Gr G11Ahhh... Right. You stay here and don't move. I'll go behind that big rock at 1 o'clock. Ignore everything else when the enemies arrive and just do as I taught you before: switch off the safety, aim, and shoot.啊、哦……你就在这里别动，我去30度方向的那块大石头后边。一会敌人来了什么都不要管，按照之前教给你的，打开保险对准了直接开枪。

(Gr G11 readies her gear and hurries towards the direction she mentioned.)（G11准备好装备，快速跑向了指定的方向。）

(The simulated gale of Level II blows past her flowing hair, grazing her cheeks with sand grains.)（二级平层中虚假的风吹起了她的长发，风沙割过她的脸颊。）

(But the battle-hardened Gr G11 pays no mind and soon takes her position.)（但是久经战场的G11没有在意，很快就位了。）

(Staring at the direction the wind is blowing from, Andoris speaks into the communicator.)（安朵丝看向风吹来的方向，对着通讯器开口。）

AndorisSay, Miss Gr G11... Do you think it'll be better if we take the high ground?G11小姐，那个……我们选择稍微高一点的位置会不会好些？

Gr G11Eh? Why's that?哎？为什么？

AndorisBecause... the wind picked up. It's mentioned in the mission intelligence that the enemies are travelling in a jeep. I've seen on TV how that kind of vehicle can kick up a lot of dust even without wind when traveling at high speeds. I think the high ground will give us a better view in this case.因为……起风了。之前看资料，敌人的交通工具是吉普车。我曾经在电视里见过，那种载具在高速行驶状态下，即使无风也会扬起大量沙尘。高一点，可能会看得更清楚？

Gr G11Hmm...唔……

(The roaring sound of an engine grows ever closer, quickly followed by a jeep and the trail of dust behind it suddenly coming into view.)（阵阵引擎的轰鸣声传来，越野吉普车迅速地出现在视野中，扬起黄沙。）

Gr G11Uwahh! I can't get up here in time. Reposition yourself and coordinate with me, Andoris!呜哇，我这边要爬上去来不及了，安朵丝你调整位置，和我打配合吧！

AndorisRoger.好的。

AndorisHmm, the appropriate position would be at...嗯，合适的位置在……

(Andoris pauses for a moment, then quickly moves in the chosen direction. Soon, she finds a suitable firing position.)（安朵丝停滞了几秒，迅速向一个方向移动，不久就找到一个合适的射击点。）

AndorisI'm in position, Miss Gr G11.我到位置了，G11小姐。

Gr G11Okay! I'll suppress them and drive them towards you! Aim for the cabin once they're within range!嗯！我这边会牵制射击，让他们去你那里！等他们进到你的射击范围里了，就对准驾驶室开枪！

AndorisAim for the cabin and fire... Yes! I-I can do that...对准驾驶室开枪……好的！我、我可以的……

AndorisRaise the gun... Then, switch off safety... Next, aim...架枪……然后，打开保险……接下来是瞄准……

(Andoris peers through the gunsight, only to find the front sight post drifting about.)（安朵丝从瞄准镜看出去，却发现准星在不断游移。）

Andoris...Huh? My body isn't shaking, but why... can't I aim properly... Is this the potential liability Mr. Dier mentioned regarding low compatibility?……唔？素体，没有在颤抖，为什么……无法瞄准……这是，德尔先生所说的适配性较低带来的隐患吗？

AndorisInitiating backup... controls—启动备案——操作——

Gr G11Andoris, they're coming towards you!安朵丝，他们过去了！

AndorisB-but... backup... controls... can't aim...!可、可是……瞄准……应急备案……无法瞄准……！

Gr G11Now! Or it'll be too late!快开枪，不然来不及了！

Andoris...Ugh!……唔！

(Andoris squeezes on the trigger. The bullet emerges from the muzzle like a shooting star, skimming over the jeep's roof and heading straight toward Gr G11, who is chasing after the vehicle.)（安朵丝扣下了扳机。子弹像流星般射出，掠过车顶，径直飞向正在追击车辆的G11。）

Gr G11Owie!呜啊！

416Test over. All participants, exit Level II now!测试结束，全体成员退出二级平层！

(The scene of the Yellow Zone slowly fades away, replaced by the training ground in 404's temporary base.)（黄区的景色消失了。404临时据点的训练室重新显现。）

(Gr G11 nervously rubs her head, still shaken by what just happened.)（G11心有余悸地摸着自己的脑袋。）

Gr G11Wow... What a shot, Andoris. A clean headshot as well. I guess it's surprisingly accurate from a certain perspective.哇……太猛了，安朵丝的火力。而且直接爆头哎，换个角度来看也挺准的。

Andoris...……

CustomerUghhhh, again?! Can't you process more than one thing at a time?!呃啊啊啊，又来了！你就不能同时多做几件事情吗？！

Angry CustomerThis "Andoris" is still standing there like a piece of junk!这个叫安朵丝的还僵在这里像块废铁一样！

Angry CustomerWhere's your manager? Get me your manager!店长呢，我要见店长！

(Andoris' lips twitch briefly before pressing into a tight line. A guilt-ridden, heartbroken expression emerges on her face.)（安朵丝的嘴唇嗫嚅了两下，又闭起来了。她看上去又愧疚又难过。）

Gr G11Give her a break, 416... It's her first time handling a proper firefight. It's only natural for her to be overwhelmed... Look, she knows she made a mistake.416，你不要一副吃人的样子啦……安朵丝第一次上战场嘛……不适应很正常的……你看她也知道错了。

Andoris...Sorry... I...……抱歉……我……

416She may have trouble adjusting. Do you have the same excuse?她不适应，你也不适应吗？

Gr G11What?啊？

416How many times have I told you to survey the battlefield carefully beforehand...? Yet somehow, you still manage to let a complete newbie teach you a lesson.跟你说过很多次了，要仔细观察战场……结果你还比不过旁边的新人吗？

Gr G11Come on, I just wanted to get it done... I thought it would be a matter of picking off a few targets; you know, a piece of cake...哎呀，我这不是想快点搞定嘛……我以为只是伏击几个目标，很简单的……

Andoris...Eh...?……欸……？

416And you. Zoning out again, huh? You think causing a blue-on-blue accident is funny?你又在发什么呆……觉得痛击队友很有趣吗？

AndorisI'm sorry... Miss 416...对不起……HK416小姐……

416Hah... Neither of you is making this easy... Head to the meeting room and reflect on your actions, then come back later.哈……一个两个不让人省心……都去会议室好好反省，一会儿再来一次。

AndorisCome back... later?还要……再来？

(Andoris frowns in perplexity. After carefully pondering the meaning of those words, she ultimately decides to ask directly.)（安朵丝疑惑地皱起眉头，仔细想了想这句话的意思，最终还是决定直接问出来。）

AndorisBut I... Are you not going to fire me?可是我……不解雇我吗？

416As Leva remarked, your in-field observation and intel gathering skills are indeed commendable. Being able to make that kind of judgment as a first-timer is... not bad. But you did neglect the most pressing matter: your marksmanship.如莱娅所说，你的观察力和对战场信息的搜集能力确实还行，第一次能做到那种程度的判断也算合格……但是——你忽略了最严重的问题，射击准度。

416While completing the mission is important,, success shouldn't come at the expense of your teammates, especially if it is pointless. That is the bottom line.在战场上，成功完成任务固然重要，但不可以伤害队友造成无谓的战力损失，这是底线。

(Andoris remains silent, simply clutches her gun tightly in hand.)（安朵丝没有回应，只是紧紧地攥着手里的枪。）

416...Crashed again?……又宕机了？

AndorisN-no, I didn't crash... I just... Did not expect Miss 416 to do this... Willingly slow down... and wait for me to catch up...没有、没有宕机……我只是，没想到HK416小姐会这样，会愿意……放慢脚步，等我……

416Wait for you? Don't get your hopes up. I'm just temporarily cutting you some slack since I'd be foolish to expect you to catch up immediately.等你？别做梦了，只是暂时的处置方案，现在让你立刻跟上进度也不现实。

416Do not fire blindly before you learn to aim, got that?在准度没能有效提高之前，不要盲目开枪，明白了吗？

AndorisY-yes, Miss 416.好……好的，HK416小姐。

416Not "Miss 416". Call me Leader from now on.不是HK416小姐，是HK416队长。

(Leaving those words behind, 416 immediately walks out of the training ground without looking back. Gr G11 steps over and pats Andoris on the arm.)（HK416说完头也不回地走出了训练室。G11上前拍了拍安朵丝的手臂。）

Gr G11Don't be alarmed, Andoris. 416 might appear intimidating... but she saying that means you've earned her approval. Congratulations!安朵丝，不要害怕，虽然416那个家伙凶凶的……但是既然这样说就代表你通过啦，恭喜你啊。

AndorisNo. I'm not nervous...不，我没有害怕……

Gr G11Eh?欸？

AndorisI... I'm really happy.我……我很开心。

AndorisI think I'm starting to grasp what Miss Leva meant now, Miss Gr G11.G11小姐，我好像，稍微有点明白莱娅小姐说的话了。

Gr G11Leva? What did she say?莱娅？她说什么啦？

AndorisShe said—她说——

AndorisI'm trying to find a place where I'm truly needed.我在找一个真正需要我的地方。

Gr G11Umm... Not sure what that means either, but I'm super happy to have you join 404! Hehe... We're teammates from now on...!唔……我是不太懂这是什么意思啦，但是你愿意加入404，我超级欢迎哦！嘿嘿……以后我们就是队友啦……

416You two planning to stay here overnight or what? Quit standing around and come.你们俩准备在这住下了？别愣着了，快点过来。

Gr G11Uwaa. Let's chat about it later. We should really hurry over, otherwise we're toast if she gets angry...呜哇，有什么事一会再说，我们快过去吧，等她真发起脾气来就完蛋了……

AndorisYeah, okay.嗯，好。

(Andoris takes her first step forward stiffly, followed by another, and is then pulled along by Gr G11, trotting toward 416 waiting by the meeting room.)（安朵丝有些僵硬地迈出了脚，接着是另一只脚，然后被G11拽着小跑起来，跑向等待在会议室中的HK416。）

(There are those willing to help her, and those willing to wait for her, so even if she starts a little slowly, it's okay.)（有人帮她，有人等她，所以一开始走得慢点也没关系。）

(Regardless of the pace or how far each step advances, ultimately, 404 moves forward together.)（不论步伐的快慢，步幅的长短，最终，404会再次一同前进。）

Andoris - Recollection Node IX 安朵丝·回溯节点IX

AndorisWell... that would be about it. Thanks for your help, Commander.嗯……差不多完成了，指挥官，辛苦了。

CommanderLooks like your experience when joining 404 was... quite the story.看来你加入404的过程……还挺曲折的。

CommanderYeah...嗯……

AndorisYou seem to have some concerns, Commander. It's okay, you can ask me directly.指挥官好像有什么疑问？没关系，请直接告诉我吧。

CommanderSome of these records... aren't from your perspective, huh?这些心智记录，有些似乎不是你的视角吧？

AndorisHaha... I really can't hide anything from you, Commander.呵呵……真是瞒不过您呢，指挥官。

(Andoris lifts up her hand and twirls her strand of hair hanging down her face with it.)（安朵丝抬手绕了绕脸颊边垂落的发丝。）

AndorisSome of the records are provided by Miss Leva.其中，有一部分记录，是莱娅小姐的手笔哦。

CommanderOf course it's her.果然是她。

CommanderEven when she's assigned elsewhere, Leva is still Leva.哈哈，就算暂时被借调走了……莱娅还是莱娅。

AndorisOh, looks like you know her very well, Commander~看来，指挥官也很了解她呢~

AndorisIndeed, she must've wanted me to better fit in with 404.是的，她应该也是想让我更加顺利地融入404吧？

AndorisI was worried that Leader Klukai only accepted me because she was fed up with all my antics, but after hearing her conversation with Mechty, I feel like I have a better understanding of her now.原本我还担心可露凯队长是被烦透了才接受我的，但是看过她和米什缇的对话后，我更加了解她了呢。

AndorisShe really is compassionate at her core, with a soft heart under her sharp tongue. I've got to pick myself up quickly so that I can ease her worries.队长真的是个嘴硬心软的好人呀，我要赶紧提升自己，打消她的顾虑才好。

AndorisI'm also truly indebted to Leva, both for her recommendation and everything she did afterwards. It was also Miss Leva who recognized what I was looking for at first glance我真的很感谢莱娅，不管是提议我加入404，还是后来她所做的一切。最初，也是莱娅小姐看穿了我想要追求的东西。

CommanderWhat you're looking for... is a place to belong to, right?你想要的是……归宿，对吗？

AndorisYes, Commander. What I sought was not merely a place that tolerates my existence, but one that truly needs me, needs my presence.是的，指挥官，我所追寻的不只是一个可以包容我的地方，而是一个需要我的地方。

AndorisIn 404, everyone is willing to accept my flaws, but I also have what it takes to protect my companions in return.在404，大家愿意包容我的缺陷，我也有一定的能力保护同伴们。

CommanderI understand that. Feeling needed and recognized is essential to everyone.我明白，被需要和认可是非常重要的。

AndorisRight. After that, I came to the Elmo following 404, and met you... Commander. It's here that I learned the true meaning of "belonging". Although 404 still operates independently, everyone has come to regard Elmo as their home. And Commander... you're also part of the family.嗯，后来，跟随404小队，我来到了艾莫号，遇到了……指挥官，在这里，我才真正理解归宿的含义。虽然404还是维持着独立运作，但大家也都已经将艾莫号当成了自己的家，而指挥官……也是我们的家人。

AndorisMany Dolls have found their belonging under you... And I wish to be one of them.您的身边是许多人形的归宿……我希望我也是其中之一。

CommanderOf course you can.当然可以。

AndorisHehe. I've realized that whenever you're around, I feel reassured and comforted, Commander. Even my crashing frequency has decreased.呵呵，在指挥官身边我很放松，好像连宕机的次数都减少了呢。

AndorisIn order to express my gratitude, feel free to call upon me whenever you need assistance, Commander.为了回报您，指挥官，在有需要的时候，可以尽情地使唤我哦？

AndorisTo me, the sense of truly belonging can only be achieved by helping and supporting each other.对我来说，互相扶持、彼此需要的地方，才是最好的归宿。

A New Place of Belonging 新的归宿

(Once again, the rest area at 404's temporary base is jam-packed with people.)（404临时据点的休息区里，再次聚满了人。）

(While banners reading "404 Development Strategy Presentation" and "Welcoming Andoris to the Team" adorn the walls, the rest of the space is decorated with brightly colored balloons floating around.)（印有“404发展战略宣讲会”与“欢迎安朵丝入队”的横幅双双挂在墙上，甚至周围还漂浮着一些颜色明丽的气球。）

416What are you trying to accomplish with all the mess here?你们把这里搞得乌烟瘴气是想做什么？

AndorisHehe. Since you gave the go-ahead, I arranged everything according to the standards for a birthday party at the café.呵呵，因为你说要准备一下，我就按照咖啡馆举办生日派对的规格安排了呢。

Happy Maintenance Crew MemberWe're celebrating Miss Andoris joining the team after all.这不是庆祝安朵丝小姐入队嘛。

416Is your way of celebrating tying balloons to Gr G11's hair?你们庆祝的方式就是把G11的头发上栓满气球？

Happy Maintenance Crew MemberHaha. We weren't able to find anything to tie the balloons down, and Gr G11 happened to be sleeping right there...哈哈，因为正好找不到能栓气球的东西，G11又正好睡在那附近……

Easy-Going Maintenance Crew MemberCome on, it's time for you to put on a smiley face.这时候就别板着脸了吧？

Easy-Going Maintenance Crew MemberI think it's great that Miss Andoris passed the test and can stay in 404.安朵丝小姐能通过测试留在404不是挺好的嘛。

AndorisHehe. I have Dier's assistance and 416's acceptance to thank for that.呵呵，还是要感谢德尔的帮助以及416对我的包容呢。

416Hmph, my acceptance is not going to last forever. Your intelligence gathering skills are useful, but you better work on your marksmanship as soon as possible. Prepare for the hellish training sessions that are waiting for you.哼，包容只是暂时的对策，你的战场信息收集能力还算有点用处，但是射击准度必须尽快提升上来，等着以后的魔鬼特训吧。

AndorisNo problem. Though I'm afraid we'll have to trouble the technicians with more adjustments and fine-tunings then...好的。就是恐怕要麻烦技术人员们配合多调试几次了呢……

AndorisAs it happens, I've brought some food over. Please consider this my thank you in advance for everyone's future assistance.正好，我订了一些食物送来，就当是提前感谢大家未来的帮助吧。

Happy Maintenance Crew MemberOh, that's so kind of you, Miss Andoris. We'll go have a bite right now.安朵丝小姐太客气了，我们这就去尝尝。

Happy Maintenance Crew MemberYou treat us to your delicious food, and we'll be at your beck and call from now on!吃了你的美食，以后我们随叫随到！

AndorisHehe, that would be wonderful.呵呵，那真是太好了。

(After the maintenance crew has left, Andoris quietly nudges up to 416.)（等维修人员们走开后，安朵丝轻轻凑到HK416身边。）

AndorisThank you for keeping me around, and turning a blind eye to this welcome party...谢谢你，让我留下来，还睁一只眼闭一只眼地举办了这个欢迎会……

AndorisIf not for your leniency, I would be trying my luck with the bounty hunters now... After all, the service industry in the nearby cities has already blacklisted me...如果不是你放水的话，恐怕我现在就只能去赏金猎人那里碰碰运气了……毕竟周边城市的服务业都已经把我拉黑了……

416No need to thank me, you earned it yourself.不用谢我，这是你自己凭本事换来的。

AndorisIn any case, I will cherish my place at 404, as well as this—无论如何，我会珍惜404的工作的，以及这个——

(Andoris raises the gun and caresses it lovingly.)（安朵丝举起了自己手中的枪支，爱惜地抚摸着。）

416...Put that thing down. You still need some time to master your fire control core. Additionally, NEVER switch off your safety before entering combat, unless you want an accidental discharge to happen.……把枪放下，你还需要一段时间学习如何正确使用自己的火控核心。而且，不进入备战状态，不要随时打开保险，会走火。

AndorisOh, I didn't notice that. Thank you for pointing it out.啊，我都没有注意呢，谢谢你的提醒。

LevaLooks like Andoris has already blended in with 404. It seems I was overthinking things.安朵丝已经可以融入404了嘛，看来是我多虑了呀。

(Following the voice, Leva and Lenna, who have continuously been on commissions, show up at the doorway.)（循着声音看去，一直外派的莱娅和莱娜两人出现在门口。）

LennaWow, a G36K-KSK imprint... that's pretty good. 416 really went all out for you!哇，烙印型号G36K-KSK……不错呀，416下老本了！

416...She picked it herself.……那是她自己挑的。

416What are you guys even doing here? Has NOMFA finally realized you're a waste of space?你们回来干嘛？废物属性终于被非军事管理局发现了？

LennaOh my, don't put it like that~ How can we possibly be absent to the welcome party of a new 404 member?哎呀哎呀，不要这么说嘛~404小队有新成员加入，我们怎么可能缺席呀。

LennaThough we're split up more often than not these days, Leva and I will always be part of the team.虽然现在确实经常要跟你们分开行动，但我和莱娅姐永远都是这里的一员呀。

(Upon hearing Lenna's words, 416's gaze softens slightly.)（听到莱娜的话，HK416的眼神微微柔和了一些。）

(Noticing this, Leva smiles mischievously.)（观察到这一点的莱娅则是露出了狡黠的笑容。）

LevaWelcome to Squad 404, Andoris. I bet 416 hasn't said that to you yet, huh?安朵丝，欢迎你加入404。我想416一定没有对你说这句话吧？

AndorisHehe. I also have your recommendation to thank, Leva.呵呵，还要谢谢莱娅当初的引荐呢。

LevaNo need to be so formal. After all, it is beneficial for us too.太客气了，毕竟这对我们也有好处嘛。

LevaWith you on the team now, 404 will be able to take on more lucrative missions in the future.有了安朵丝的加入，404以后就能再接一点更赚钱的任务了。

416Already plotting out your little schemes before we're even back to full strength?人都没齐，就已经打起小算盘了吗？

LevaOh? By the sound of that, I guess you're for hiring more members?哦？听你的意思，404还要继续纳新了？

416Of course. We have two freeloaders taking up space after all.那是当然，毕竟有两名占着编制不干活的人形。

LennaHey, don't put it so harshly. Even if I don't care, Leva might get upset~哎呀，别说得这么难听嘛。就算我不在意，莱娅姐也会难过的呀~

LevaRighhhht~ I'm super upset now.是~啊~真的超级难过。

LevaWho would have thought that after all this time, 416 is so weak that she can't accomplish anything without me or Lenna.没想到这么久不见，416已经弱化到缺了我和莱娜就什么都做不到了？

416...Tsk.……哼。

(Most unusually, 416 does not immediately retaliate with words.)（非常少见的，HK416没有立刻使用言语回击。）

416Leva, Lenna. Listen carefully to what I'm about to say.莱娅，莱娜，你们给我听好了。

416You may have your own choices and plans, but 404 will move towards the future as well.你们有自己的选择和安排，404也一样会走向未来。

416Andoris' arrival is but the beginning; 404 will grow stronger than ever before—all under MY leadership.安朵丝的加入只是开始，404会变成比以前更强大的存在——在我的带领下。

LevaLooks like 416 has already taken it upon herself to become the leader without me saying a thing.看来不用我说，416也已经把自己当成队长了呀。

LevaPerfect then~ That saves me a bunch of words.正好~省得那堆麻烦的流程了。

416What do you mean?什么意思？

LevaI mean what I said.就是字面上的意思咯。

(Seeing 416's alerted expression, Lenna quickly chimes in.)（看到HK416戒备的神情，莱娜赶忙插话进来。）

LennaAbout not being able to participate in 404's routine commissions... Leva and I have always felt very guilty.关于一直没能参与404日常委托的事情……其实我和莱娅姐一直都很愧疚的。

LennaWe are also well aware that this has caused a lot of inconvenience for you and Gr G11...我们也很清楚现在这样给416以及G11带来了不少困扰……

LennaSo, in addition to looking for new recruits, we also want to make some adjustments to the squad's structure~ This has been your wish for a long time, right?所以除了物色新成员之外，在小队的架构上也想要调整一下嘛~而且这不是416长久以来的愿望嘛~

416I feel like you've been waiting to push the thankless role of the leader onto me for a while now.我看你才是早就想把队长这种吃力不讨好的事情甩给我。

LennaNo, no. We're not PUSHING it onto you. We're ASKING you to take over as the leader of Squad 404.不是甩给你呀，而是我们拜托416来接手404的队长一职。

LennaThe future of Squad 404 needs you, 416. I mean that sincerely!404小队的未来需要416，这是真心的！

(416 does not answer directly, rather looks at Leva standing on the side. Faced with her interrogative gaze, Leva simply nods.)（HK416没有直接回应，而是看向了一旁的莱娅。直面HK416的目光，莱娅点了点头。）

LevaAs Lenna said, Squad 404 is counting on you from now on, 416.正如莱娜所说，之后404小队就拜托你了，416。

LevaOf course, we will also do what's in our power to support the work here. We're not completely leaving you to your own devices.当然，我们两人也会尽量支援这里的工作，并不会真的完全不管。

LevaAnd another thing...还有就是……

(Leva deliberately pauses for a second.)（莱娅刻意停顿了一下。）

416Go on.接着说。

LevaI hope you can turn your ambitious words into reality, 416. Keep 404 moving forward and become a force no one dares to challenge416，希望刚才你的豪言壮语能够兑现，让404继续前进，成为没有人再敢动摇的小队。

LevaWe can safeguard 404 together, right?我们可以一起守护好404的，对吗？

(Leva sets aside her usual slyness, letting her sincerity reach 416 clearly and unmistakably.)（莱娅收起了自己一贯的狡黠，她的真诚切实地传递给了HK416。）

(As a result, all anxiety and unease regarding 404's future buried in 416's mind suddenly vanish.)（416心智中对于404未来的不安与焦躁，随之烟消云散。）

416Hmph, unlike a certain irresponsible former leader, I never make empty promises.哼，不像某个不负责任的前·队长，我从不开空头支票。

416Even with you sitting around doing nothing, 404 will not collapse.就算你什么都不做，404也绝不会倒下。

Gr G11Uhh... What are you guys babbling about...唔……你们在说什么呀……

(Woken up by the commotion, Gr G11 walks over while yawning.)（被这边动静吵醒的G11打着哈欠走了过来。）

Gr G11Eh? Leva and Lenna's here...哎？莱娅和莱娜也来了呢……

LennaPfffft. What's with all the balloons tied to your hair, Gr G11? It looks so weird!噗哈哈哈，G11你头发上怎么挂了这么多气球，好怪啊。

Gr G11Huh?哎？

(After pulling on and failing to untie the balloons, Gr G11 gives up. All the while, Andoris patiently helps her untangle the mess.)（扯了扯发现解不开绳子的G11放弃了挣扎，而一旁的安朵丝则耐心地帮她整理起来。）

AndorisIt's official now. 416 is the leader of Squad 404.416正式成为404小队的队长了哦。

AndorisAnd more Dolls will be joining us in the future.以后还会有更多的人形加入呢。

Gr G11Does that mean... Leva and Lenna will be leaving?莱娅和莱娜……要脱队了吗？

LennaNo way! We won't leave even if you want to kick us out!怎么可能！你们就是赶人，我们也不会走的！

Lenna404 will always be our home!404永远都是我们的家！

Gr G11Whew... But wait... Uwaahh...那就好……不过……呜哇……

Gr G11With 416 as the leader now... wouldn't my life be even more difficult than before..?416当队长的话……我的日子不是更难过了……

416You should be glad you finally have the opportunity to crawl toward the goal of becoming an elite Doll now.你应该庆幸自己终于有机会向精英人形的方向爬行了。

(Gr G11 grimaces with an expression of unbearable anguish.)（G11露出一脸难以承受的苦涩表情。）

LennaOh no, she's messing with Gr G11 again.哎呀，416又在吓唬G11了。

LennaSpeaking of. With our new beginning, perhaps you two should take this opportunity to consider new codenames.对了，既然404有了新的开始，416和G11要不要也趁此把自己的代号改一改？

LennaLook, both Leva and I got new ones. Even Andoris kept her old name as her codename.你看我和莱娅姐都改过了，安朵丝也保留着自己过去的名字作为代号呀~

Gr G11So complicated... Having to think of a name and all that. Can't I just use whatever that comes up...?好麻烦啊……还要想名字什么的，叫什么都好吧……

416I'll give you a new codename later.你的新代号我之后会告诉你。

416As for me, I've already got one.至于我的，早就已经有了。

LennaWhat is it? Hurry up and tell us!是什么呀，赶快说来听听！

KlukaiKlukai.可露凯。

LennaK-L-U-K-A-I... Does it mean anything in particular?可……露……凯……有什么特殊含义吗？

(Having been watching from the sidelines the whole time, Leva narrows her eyes and ponders for a moment before breaking into a smile.)（在一旁看热闹的莱娅眯起眼睛思索片刻，继而笑了起来。）

LevaA cognate of "Krokodil", huh... Quite the ambitious and provocative name.“鳄鱼”这个词转换过来的吗……真是个有野心又充满了挑衅意味的名字呢。

KlukaiHmph, it's just a name I used in the past.哼，只是以前用过的名字而已。

KlukaiNevertheless, the crocodile's sharp teeth will tear the lion's throat wide open one day.但我相信，鳄鱼的利齿迟早有一天会将狮子的喉咙撕碎。

LevaWow, so scary.好可怕哦。

LevaWhile crocodiles rule the water... don't tell me you don't know their ability to fight is handicapped on land, Klukai.鳄鱼虽然是水中的王者，但是可露凯不会不知道……它的陆上战斗力会大打折扣吧？

KlukaiNot when I drag your pretentious ass into the water with me.只要把你这自以为是的家伙一起拖下水就好了。

LevaOh, you can certainly give that a try.哦，那你可以试试看。

(A war without gunfire breaks out as Klukai and Leva engage in a heated exchange.)（没有硝烟的战争一触即发，可露凯与莱娅你一言我一语地针锋相对。）

Gr G11Ah... Here we go again...啊……果然又吵起来了……

AndorisMy, my. Everyone seems to get along.呵呵，大家关系真好呢。

LennaHaha...You're really quick to adapt, Andoris.哈哈……安朵丝适应得好快呀。

LennaWell, this is 404 after all. Our eternal home and family.不过，这才是404嘛，我们永远的404。

(In the march of time, Squad 404 takes another step forward—one that uniquely belongs to them.)（岁月的轴序上，404小队再次迈出了属于自己的一步。）

(The "non-existent", forsaken squad stranded in limbo will continue to justify their "existence" together with the most unconventional attitude.)（被遗弃在灰色地带的“不存在”小队，将继续用最特立独行的态度携手证明她们的“存在”。）
