Boisterous Year's Eve 喧禧年夜
Read this chapter with voices →End of the year, in the Oasis' Ops Room.年末，绿洲指挥部。
Professor...Dushevnaya and Taisch's red packets are done, but I still need to prepare Hannah and Turing's red packets...……杜莎妮和弥灵的福函已经包好了，还要给汉娜和图灵她们也准备福函……
ProfessorSeems like my finances have gone with the wind, even before Mai could even give me the New Year weather report.看来在新年的新气象来临之前，我的小金库就要先一步告罄了啊。
I can't help but sigh as I look at the piles of red packets and the equally red figures on my monitor.看着桌面上堆叠的红包与屏幕里岌岌可危的数字，我不由得叹了口气。
ProfessorOh well, it's a New Year's tradition, so RIP to my poor wallet.毕竟是新年传统，只能委屈我的钱包了。
ProfessorHuh, I didn't know it was so late. Let's finish up the red packets and get some dinner.不知不觉都这么晚了，还是早点整理完福函去吃饭吧。
Click.咔哒。
ProfessorHm? This voice...嗯？这个声音……
??Freeze.不许动。
Cold metal presses against my waist from behind.冰冷的金属块抵在了我的后腰之上。
??This was only supposed to be a routine check, but who would have known I'd wind up catching such a big fish?原本只是例行检查，没想到还有意外收获啊。
??Tell me, Professor... Where exactly did all this money come from and what are you going to do with it?说吧，教授……这么大量的现金，究竟是从哪里来，又准备用来做什么呢？
ProfessorI... What if I don't tell you?这……如果我不说呢？
??Leniency for cooperation, harshness for resistance. If you don't talk...坦白从宽，抗拒从严。如果教授不说的话……
??I will be forced to use stiff measures to interrogate, you, Professor~ 3... 2...我只好动用刑罚了来拷问教授了哦~3……2……
A hand grazes across my back before moving under my armpit, its fingers gently spreading.一只手从背后绕到了我的腋下，手指轻轻摆弄。
ProfessorHuh? Wait, hold on...诶？等、等一下……
??1! Here it comes! Tickle tickle tickle tickle tickle tickle~1！开始~我挠我挠我挠挠挠~
ProfessorPfffft...hahahahaha... Noooo, stop... hahahaha... Stooooop... I'll talk, I'll tell you everything!噗……哈哈哈哈哈……等等，等等……哈哈哈哈……住手……我交代，我全部都交代。
??Hehehe, that's more like it.哼哼哼，这样才对嘛~
After I hear that chuckle, I shake my head with a smile and turn around.听着带有笑意的声音，我无奈地摇摇头，转过身去。
Alright, alright, enough messing around, Xinghuan.好啦好啦，别闹了，星寰。
However, the Xinghuan I see looks nothing like her usual self. She's wearing a white qipao, and her red gloves complement her vigorous personality. She waves the gun in her hand back and forth and smiles merrily at me.映入眼帘的身影却与平日不同。星寰身着一身青白色的旗袍，而红色的手套迎合了她跳脱的性格。她晃了晃手中的枪，笑吟吟地看着我。
ProfessorWow, this outfit... It really suits you.这身旗袍……很适合你呢。
XinghuanBut of course... Hey, don't think you can get me to lower my guard, I'm a plainclothes secret agent!那当然……等等，别想和我套近乎，我可是便衣特工！
XinghuanTo think you're still trying to charm me with fancy words at a time like this! It's time I gave you a little correction!这种时候还试图用花言巧语迷惑对手，看来是时候给你点颜色瞧瞧了！
Xinghuan points her gun at me.星寰举起枪对准我。
ProfessorGwaaargh...呃啊……
认真地扮演。
恶搞地扮演。
XinghuanHe who sows the wind shall reap the whirlwind. May you fare better in your next life.. Pffft... Oh, come on, stop sticking your tongue out!善恶终有报，教授请重新来过吧……噗……教授不要吐舌头啦！
ProfessorWith my superior speed, I'm sure to... blargh. I am dead.天下武功唯快不破，区区……啊我死了。
XinghuanProfessor! Be serious about this!教授，认真一点啦！
ProfessorI'm trying my best to work with you here. So, what's all this about?我已经很尽力在配合了。所以说，这又是什么情况？
ProfessorDid Kuro make some kind of weird post again?难道说卡萝又发了什么奇奇怪怪的帖子……
XinghuanOh? You mean you haven't heard of the "Magrasea New Year Blockbuster"?哦？难道教授没有听说“麦戈拉贺岁影片”的事情吗？
ProfessorI guess I was too focused on the red packets... Let me guess, it's related to the Burbank Sector?看来是我太投入福函的事情了……如果我没猜错，应该和伯班克扇区有关吧？
XinghuanCorrect. Their Administrator is really something else. She's nothing like Xuannu at all... oops, I went off topic.没错，伯班克的管理员真有意思，和玄女完全不一样~啊，跑题了。
XinghuanSimply put, Burbank's Administrator is holding a film submission event with prizes.简而言之，伯班克的管理员开启了一个有奖征稿活动。
XinghuanYou send her a 5-minute long short, and the best one not only becomes the subject of their latest New Year movie... you even get a chance to get a wish granted.只要录制5分钟的小短片发送给她，最受欢迎的作品不仅仅能作为贺岁电影的题材……还可以获得一次实现愿望的机会哦。
ProfessorI see... well, it's very much in character for her to be this easygoing.原来如此……唉，这么随心所欲的想法，还真是有她的风格。
ProfessorWell, as long as nobody causes too big of a mess... Though with that in mind, why'd you come looking for me?无论如何只要不引起骚乱就好……不过，为什么星寰要来找我呢？
XinghuanBecause I wanted you to do the short with me, Professor. I'm sure I'd win the first prize easily.当然是因为和教授一起拍摄的话，就一定可以轻松取得冠军啦。
ProfessorI mean, I AM super popular after all... (Sigh) Looks like the Dolls are going to fight over me again, what a pain.毕竟我这么受欢迎……唉，看来又要陷入被人形们争抢的状态了，真烦恼啊。
XinghuanWow, you're such a narcissist, Professor... Still, that IS the case. I went into action immediately after hearing the news, which is why I was the first to find you.呜哇，教授好自恋……不过也确实如此啦，我可是看到消息之后迅速行动，才能第一时间找到教授哦。
确实如此。
也不一定。
ProfessorWhile I know a thing or two about movies, it's not like I can guarantee the first place, right?虽然我对电影确实有一定的研究，但也很难保证能拿下第一哦？
XinghuanAw, you're being too modest. It'll be fine as long as I have you around! Everyone in the Oasis thinks so too!教授太谦虚啦，有你在肯定没问题的，绿洲的大家可都是和我一样的想法啊！
XinghuanLeaving that aside, come take a look at the script I prepared! It's a classic cops and robbers movie!先不说这些了，来来来，快看看我准备的剧本。这可是非常经典的警匪片主题！
XinghuanIf you don't hurry up, the other Dolls will snatch you away!如果不抓紧时间，等下教授就被其他人形抢走了！
ProfessorWait, I haven't even said yes... urgh...等一下，我还没有答应……呃……
I have no choice but to accept the script that Xinghuan stuffs in my face.面对星寰强塞过来的剧本，我只能无奈地接过。
ProfessorSo it's about a cop who goes undercover in the triads, but they've gone undercover for too long and end up losing their way...卧底在黑帮的警察，却因为潜伏太久而失去了本心……
XinghuanYup yup, it's a common trope in old cop movies. Alright, it's action time, Professor. Now put on these handcuffs...没错没错，这可是旧时代警匪片中经常出现的桥段。好了，我们马上action了教授。先把这个手铐给……
Bang—砰——
Before I can memorize my lines, someone forcefully kicks open the door to the Ops Room.还未等我熟悉台词，指挥室的门就被暴力地踹开。
<cmdr>&星寰Eh?诶？
Erika, please come with... hm?，请和我走……嗯？
The person who bursts in is Erika, wearing a red and black qipao. She has a rifle in hand and her countenance does not look friendly at all.破门而入的爱莉卡身着红黑旗袍，手持步枪，俨然来者不善。
ProfessorErika... What's this...爱莉卡……你这又是……
XinghuanFreeze, I'm an undercover agent!别动，我是便衣特工！
Upon seeing Erika storm in, Xinghuan steps in front of me and points her gun at the interloper.看着气势汹汹的爱莉卡，星寰挡在我身前，同样举枪对峙。
ErikaAn undercover agent...便衣特工……
Erika glances at Xinghuan, and then at the script I'm holding.爱莉卡扫了一眼星寰，又看了看我手中的台本。
ErikaOh? I see, so it's already begun... Good, that suits the story...哦？原来如此，已经开始了吗……那就符合设定……
Erika... Have you betrayed us? No wonder the Young Miss went out of her way to send me over.……你背叛了我们吗？难怪大小姐让我专门跑一趟。
Erika pulls out a flashbang from behind her and pulls the pin with her teeth.爱莉卡从后腰摸出了一颗制式闪光弹，用牙齿拉开了拉环。
ProfessorA flashbang? Wait a minute, this is the Ops...闪光弹？！等等，这里是指挥……
XinghuanI won't hand over to you!我不会把交给你的！
The flashbang leaves Erika's hand and I instinctively turn and drop prone.闪光弹被爱莉卡抛出，我下意识转身卧倒。
However, what I don't expect is that the moment it touches the ground, it simply flashes once, like an ordinary bulb.然而出乎我意料的是，闪光弹碰到地面的一瞬间，仅仅是如同普通的闪光灯般亮了一下。
XinghuanAiiieeee! My eyes... dammit!呀啊！我的视线……可恶！
ProfessorYou... what are you... urgh...你们……这是在……呃……
Before I can respond further, Erika rushes forward and scoops me up with one arm, before pushing the window open and leaping out.还未等我有进一步的反应，爱莉卡就已经冲上前将我抱起，推开窗户向下一跃。
ProfessorHOLD ON A MINUTE!!等等等等一下啊！！！
ErikaDon't worry, I'm here.不用怕，有我在。
ErikaCome with me, . The Young Miss wants to see you.跟我来，。大小姐要见你。
Erika tosses out a grappling hook and the wind whistles around us as we quickly descend, before safely landing in front of a passing Bonneville.爱莉卡随手甩出钩锁，我们随着绳索破风而下，最终平安地落在了路过的邦尼薇娅面前。
BonnevilleWha?! Wow, that sure scared me, people flying through the sky and all... I didn't expect them to have such exciting events for New Year's. Hm? That you, Professor and Erika?哇啊？！吓我一跳，天空飞人……绿洲的新年居然还有这么刺激的节目。嗯？教授和爱莉卡？
ErikaLend me your bike.摩托借我一下。
Erika hotwires the bike with skillful familiarity and tosses me a helmet.爱莉卡熟练地解锁了摩托，将一个头盔扔给了我。
ErikaGet on!上车！
BonnevilleHEY, THAT'S MY BIKE!喂，我的车——！！
I can vaguely make out a Doll's wailing from behind us, but we're already roaring down the road. Out of sight, out of mind.在我们身后似乎传来了某位人形的哀嚎声，但是这已经和在路上飞驰的我们没有任何关系了。
ErikaHold on tight to me. We might be going a little fast, so take care not to get thrown off.请抱紧我，速度有点快，注意不要被甩出去。
ErikaAlso, learn these two sets of lines. We will be filming right away once we reach our destination.同时，这两份台词，请熟悉一下。抵达目的地后，我们立刻进行拍摄。
ProfessorWait a minute, where are we even going, anyway? Could you stop for a minute?等等，这是要去哪里。先停下来……我们……
ErikaHm? Professor, please speak up. The wind's too strong and I can't hear you.嗯？教授，请大声一点。风有点大，我听不到。
Although countless questions are racing through my mind, it's probably best if I didn't disturb Erika's riding...虽然脑海中有着无数的疑问，但是现在这个状态，还是不要打扰爱莉卡驾驶了……
All I can do is look through the script Erika handed me as the wind billows around me.我只能在呼啸的风中看起爱莉卡递过来的剧本。
ProfessorA childhood friend who's actually a yakuza princess... What kind of plot is this? And this "princess" is...黑道千金的青梅竹马……这是什么剧情？千金又是……
ErikaThe Young Miss has been waiting a long time for you.大小姐已经等你很久了。
Erika doesn't seem like she's going to answer my questions and directly recites a line from the script.爱莉卡似乎并没有打算回答我，直接念起了剧本中的台词。
Professor"But... why does the Young Miss want to see me? Right now, I..."“大小姐……为什么要见我？我现在……”
ErikaI'm just a bodyguard. My job is only to get you to the Young Miss.我只是护卫而已，只负责把你送到大小姐的身边。
ErikaThe Master already knows who you are, but the Young Miss still chose to trust you.老爷已经查出了你的身份，即便如此，大小姐却依旧选择相信你。
ProfessorIt's my fault for getting her involved in all this and endangering her...“是我连累了她，才会让她也陷入这么危险的境地……”
ErikaAlthough I have no idea what the Young Miss is thinking, on my part, at least, I've never regretted knowing you.虽然不知道大小姐究竟是怎么想的，但至少对我来说，我从未后悔过和你相识。
ErikaAfter spending so much time with you, there's nobody who understands you better.和你相处了这么久，你是怎样的人，我再清楚不过了。
ProfessorErika, you...爱莉卡，你……
ErikaAnd in any case, I said I'd protect you.无论如何，我说过我会保护你。
Vroom—轰——
Erika's next line is drowned out by a roar from the skies.爱莉卡的台词淹没在上空的轰鸣声中。
??Hold it— right there—给我——站住——
ErikaThat voice; could it be...这个声音，难道是……
XinghuanStop right there— the Professor, ah, I mean, is mine!站住——教授，啊不对，是我的！
A massive exo soars above us and lands in our path, blocking us. Its massive Hellbore cannon takes aim at me and Erika.巨大的外骨骼越过我们的头顶阻挡了去路，黑洞洞的熔钢炮瞄准了我和爱莉卡。
ErikaA mecha, hm... a most interesting foe.机甲吗……还真是有趣的对手。
Erika's bike screeches to a halt as she takes aim at Xinghuan in her exo.爱莉卡刹停摩托的同时，手中的枪械也瞄准了星寰的外骨骼。
XinghuanRelax, our operands are in low-power, harmless mode. They still hurt a little though, so you'd better duck.放心吧，算量已经调整为没有伤害的模式了。不过还是稍微有点痛的，教授记得躲开啊。
Kaboom—轰——
Erika grabs me by the collar and tosses me into a roadside bush.爱莉卡随手抓住了我的衣领，将我甩到了路边的草丛之中。
等一下，你们难道打算在这里开战？
……已经不知道要从哪里开始吐槽了……
Erika! Go find the Young Miss! Leave this place to me!！去见大小姐！这里交给我！
ProfessorYou say that, but I have no idea where to find her...就算你这么说，我也不知道要去哪里找大小姐啊……
ProfessorAre lone Dolls fighting giant mechs on foot supposed to be an Oasis tradition...春节上演人形大战机甲是我们绿洲的优良传统吗……
After seeing rays and flashes of light coming from the battling pair in front of me, I decide to curl up in the bush and take stock of my surroundings while hidden.看着眼前的二人已经光芒四射地打在了一起，我猫在草丛之中，暗中观察情况。
ProfessorFortunately, they're using prop ammo and they've tweaked their operand output... Though I don't know if the other Dolls will be as restrained as they are.还好两人用的都是道具弹并调整了算量输出……就不知道其他人形是不是能够像她们这么克制了。
ProfessorMaybe I should contact Persicaria first...还是先联系一下帕斯卡比较好……
I try to call Persicaria's number, but all I get is a busy tone.我尝试拨通帕斯卡的通讯，但对面却传来了忙音。
ProfessorI can't connect? But why...无法接通？为什么……
Before I can do anything else, a delicious scent draws my attention.还没等我做出下一步反应，一股香气吸引了我的注意。
ProfessorHm? Man, that smells nice...诶？好香的味道……
ProfessorNow that you mention it, I don't think I've had dinner yet...这么说起来，我好像还没有吃晚饭啊……
??Baozi... here... have some.包子……这里……请吃。
ProfessorAh, it's you, Zion. Thank you.啊，是希安啊，谢谢你。
I take the little bamboo tray from her. After getting a few baozi in my belly, I feel considerably refreshed.我接过了希安递过来的笼屉。几个包子下肚，我感觉整个人都精神了不少。
??Baozi... good...?包子……好吃……？
ProfessorThey taste great... Hm? Hang on; Zion, what are you doing here?味道不错……嗯？等等，希安，你怎么会在这里？
ZionLooking for you... Movie...找教授……电影……
Zion hands over a document, a serious look on her face.希安认真地向我递出了一份文件。
ProfessorAnother script... Zion, are you making a movie too?也是台本吗……希安也想拍电影吗？
ZionMaking movie... lots of words...拍电影……多说话……
ZionRecover... speech systems... lots of practice... Can you help?恢复……语言系统……多锻炼……可以吗？
After seeing the expectant look in Zion's eyes, I nod and accept the script from her.看着希安充满期待的目光，我点了点头，伸手接过了希安的台词。
ProfessorTheir scuffle looks like it's going to last for a while, so let's get some practice in.正好那边看上去一时半会儿也无法结束，我们就趁现在练习一下吧。
ProfessorOh? So it's a wuxia-type story... And you're playing the shopkeeper.哦？居然是武侠类型的……希安是要扮演店小二啊。
ZionMhm.嗯。
ProfessorAlright, let's begin. "Waitress! Give me a tray of baozi, two jin of beef... and two more of anything good on the menu."那我开始了哦。“小二！来一屉包子，二斤牛肉……还有什么好的下酒菜也给我来两碟。”
ZionCome... coming...!来……来了……！
ZionHere... a tray... of baozi... t-two jin... of beef... and the, the other dishes...包子……一……一屉……牛、牛肉……两斤……还有下、下酒菜……
Due to panic, Zion's voice trails off until she's inaudible.希安的声音越来越小，因为过于着急，甚至出现了中断。
ProfessorWaitress, I've got something to ask you.“小二，有件事我想和你打听一下。”
ZionWhat is it... dear... dear... dear customer... what... ack...什么事情……客……客……客官……想……呜……
Zion's voice is so soft, almost inaudible. She looks down, shaking her head in regret.希安的声音逐渐小到无法听见。她低下头去，有些泄气地摇了摇头。
ProfessorZion, it's okay. Don't rush it. Take it slowly... Now, breathe in deeply.希安，不用着急，慢慢来……深呼吸。
Zion...I'm sorry... I...……对不起……我……
Zion...I'm no... no good at movies...……电影……不适合……
ProfessorNow why would you think that?为什么会这么想呢？
Zion...I can't... recite my lines... so nobody... wants to see me...……台词……念不出……没有人……想看……
ProfessorOf course your lines are an important part of your performance. But there are other parts of your performance beyond your lines.在电影中，台词固然是必不可少的一环。不过也有台词之外的元素。
ProfessorPersonally, I think there's one other essential thing for a good performance apart from your lines.除了念对台词之外，我觉得还有一样东西是不可或缺的。
ZionWhat... is it...什……么……
ProfessorThe belief, the confidence that you can deliver them.相信自己可以念好的自信心。
ZionConfi...dence... But... Zion's... speech systems... are...自信……心……但是……希安……语言系统……已经……
ProfessorYeah, I know. But I also know you can do it, Zion.嗯，我知道。但是我相信希安可以做到的。
ZionReally... can I...真的……可以吗……
ProfessorIf you're willing to try, I'll stay with you and practice.只要希安愿意，我可以一直陪希安练习。
Zion...Professor... I... I get it... now...……教授……我……我明白……了……
Zion nods eagerly. She extends a hand and points to a certain spot on the script.希安认真地点了点头。她伸出手，指了指剧本上的一个位置。
ProfessorHm? You want to try it again?嗯？是要重新来过吗？
ZionYeah...嗯……
ProfessorWaitress! Give me a tray of buns, two jin of beef...“小二！来一屉包子，二斤牛肉……”
ZionComing! One tray... of baozi... two jin... of beef...来了！包子……一屉……牛肉……两斤……
ProfessorWaitress, I've got something to ask you.小二，有件事我想和你打听一下。
ProfessorIs there an old manor around here?这附近是不是有一处古宅？
ZionYes. If need be... dear customer... I... I can serve as a guide.是的。如果……客官有需要……我……我可以，为客官指路。
ProfessorI'll leave it to you, then... Hm? Wait, by "guide", do you mean...那就拜托了……嗯？等等，指路是指……
ZionZion knows... which direction... Erika came from... Zion... can take you there...希安知道……爱莉卡……来的方向……希安……带教授去……
I look at the intense battle occurring not far off, and then at the script in my hands.我看了看不远处还在激战的两人。又看了看手中的剧本。
ProfessorGot it. Although, will your film short be okay like this?我明白了……不过，希安的拍摄这样就好了吗？
ZionWith... your help... this... will do...有……教授的话……这样……就够了……
ZionZion... has courage now... after practice... Would you... help me... again... Professor?希安……有了勇气……练习后……教授……可以……陪我……再来一次……吗？
ProfessorOf course. I'll do it with you as many times as you want, until you're happy.当然可以，多少遍都可以。
ZionIt's... a deal!一言……为定！
Zion smiles at me in a very cute way.希安露出了一个十分可爱的笑容。
With her guiding me, we soon arrive at the location of the "Young Miss" that Erika was talking about.在希安的带领之下，我们来到了爱莉卡口中的“大小姐”所在的位置。
ProfessorEr... Zion, are you sure it's here?呃……希安，你确定是在这里吗？
ZionUm...嗯……
ProfessorAlright, I see...好吧，原来如此……
As I look at the familiar shrine before me, I sigh in resignation.看着眼前熟悉的神社，我有些无奈地叹了一口气。
KimieYou're here at last... .你终于来了啊……。
ProfessorSo it was Kimie after all...果然是君惠啊……
Kimie seems to have been waiting for a long time in the shrine.在神社之中，君惠似乎已经等候多时了。
KimieDon't address me in such a familiar way, . Father trusted you, but you've been lying to us all this time.不要那么亲密地喊我的名字，。父亲明明那么信任你，你却一直在欺骗我们。
KimieAfter all these years, how exactly did you see us... Tell me, what was going through your head when you spoke those words to me?这么多年来，你究竟是以怎样的心态面对我们……又是如何能对我说出那些话语的呢？
Kimie looks me in the eye, and tears slowly well up in her eyes. Pain, misery, resentment, love... All these different emotions blend together, and nobody could have remained unmoved in the face of the look she gave me.君惠看着我的脸，眼中逐渐溢满泪水。痛苦、挣扎、憎恨、爱意……不同的情感交织在一起，面对这样的眼神，没有人能不为之而动容。
Professor..."But still, you chose to save me."……“但是，你还是选择救下了我。”
KimieYou..!你……！
Kimie swings her fan in what seems to be anger.君惠挥动扇子，似乎十分愤怒。
Whap—啪——
The fan travels through the air at what seems to be a ridiculously slow speed before impacting on my head.半空中的扇子以一种慢得离谱的速度轻轻地落在了我的头上。
ProfessorUrgh...……呃……
KimiePro-Professor? Why did you stop... Could, could it be that this Kimie hit you too hard?教、教授？为什么停下来了……难、难道是君惠方才用力过猛了吗？
ProfessorOwowow...好痛好痛……
ProfessorKimie, even if this part is supposed to be in slow-mo, that was too slow.君惠，就算这里是慢动作，也实在是太慢了哦。
KimieAh, I... I sincerely apologize! This Kimie has never done this before, so I did not properly control my strength...啊，这个……十分抱歉！君惠是第一次做这样的动作，所以没有控制好力……
ProfessorIt's alright, I'm not blaming you. Come, try it again. Only this time, wait till the end to pull the blow.好啦，我不是在责怪你。来，再试一次，这一次只要在最后一刻收力就好。
装痛。
吐槽。
KimieI understand... Thank you for your consideration, Professor.我明白了……感谢您的体贴，教授。
KimiePardon me... Yeeart!失礼了……嘿！
Kimie swings the fan forcefully, but pulls back at the last minute so it lands softly on my head.君惠用力挥动扇子，在最后一刻收力。扇子平稳地贴在了我的头顶。
ProfessorThat worked well.看来效果不错呢。
KimieI see... This Kimie has once again learned something new today. Thank you very much, Professor.原来是这样……君惠今天又学到了新的知识。十分感谢教授。
ProfessorOh, it was nothing. Still, I didn't expect you to be working with Erika.只是微不足道的小事而已。不过没想到，君惠会和爱莉卡合作啊。
KimieWell, the performance seemed most interesting and this Kimie was quite intrigued by it. Erika was also quite eager to try out the firearms commonly used in yakuza movies...因为演剧的形式十分有趣，君惠对此很感兴趣，而爱莉卡也正巧想试试黑道电影中常见的枪械……
ProfessorAnd then you decided to look for me?然后你们就决定找我了？
KimieYes... because this script tells a story of two people who sincerely love each other.嗯……因为这个剧本，讲述了真心相爱的二人的故事。
KimieHaving you play such a character... would be the best possible outcome.这样的角色，由教授来出演……应该再好不过了。
Kimie's face flushes slightly.君惠的脸上渐渐泛起了红晕。
ProfessorSo that's what you were thinking.原来君惠是这样的想法。
KimieMm... May I inquire as to your own...嗯……教授的想法，又是如何……
Kaboom—轰——
Just then, a red silhouette flies in through the door.就在此时，一个红色的身影从门外倒飞而入。
Erika(Coughs heavily) To think a mere agent like you would actually make me...咳咳咳……区区一个特工，居然能让我……
KimieErika?!爱莉卡？！
ErikaYoung Miss, my apologies...大小姐，十分抱歉……
XinghuanSo, I've finally found this place... I've beaten your best fighter, so stop your pointless resistance and surrender already!终于找到了这里……你们的最强战力已经倒下了，不要再顽抗了，乖乖投降吧！
I look at Erika on the ground, and Xinghuan, flush with triumph...倒地的爱莉卡，以及意气风发的星寰……
ProfessorNow where have I seen this before...总觉得这一幕好像在哪里见过……
I quickly flip through Xinghuan's and Erika's scripts.我赶紧翻看星寰的剧本和爱莉卡的剧本。
ProfessorThe plainclothes agent who uses her informant to destroy the villains' lair... and the heavily-wounded bodyguard who has sworn her life to protect her mistress... Urgh...依靠卧底终于探明真相的便衣特工捣毁窝点……还有重伤誓死守卫大小姐的保镖……呃……
ProfessorI can't believe they actually managed to join two scripts that were so different together...两个画风截然不同的剧本，居然还真被她们融在一起了……
XinghuanAlright, it's all over! Now surrender!好了，一切都结束了，快快束手就擒吧！
ErikaYoung Miss! Hurry and go! Leave this place to me!大小姐，快走！这里交给我！
Kimie...Follow me, !……，跟我走！
Kimie tugs on my hand and we run into the depths of the shrine.君惠拉起了我的手，向着神社深处跑去。
Kimie(Pants heavily)哈啊……哈啊……哈啊……
ProfessorKimie! We've run out of road!君惠！前面已经没有路了！
Kimie, I... I can't surrender...，我……已经不可能投降了……
KimieThere is only one fate... that awaits me.等待我的……只有一种结局。
ProfessorKimie!君惠！
Kimie...I'm sorry, ...……抱歉，……
KimieEven now, I still can't let go of you. So...直到此刻，我还是无法对你放手。所以……
Kimie...Let us both go to the next world together!……就让我们一同……共赴黄泉吧！
Kimie grabs my hand and jumps.君惠拉着我的手，纵身一跃。
ProfessorI knew this was going to happen—居然是这样的发展吗——
Boom— There is a wave of heat from a SFX explosion as Kimie and I plummet from a great height.轰——伴随着特效爆炸的热浪，我和君惠从高处坠下。
There are garbled voices in the distance, and I think I hear someone calling my name.远处传来嘈杂的声音，似乎有人在呼唤我的名字。
ProfessorThis is...这里是……
???... Are you alright?……您还好吗？
Professor...Persicaria?……帕斯卡？
I blink, and find myself in a cramped room with Persicaria.我挣扎着睁开眼睛，却发现自己正和帕斯卡在一个狭小的房间中。
ProfessorThis is...这里是……
PersicariaIt took a lot of effort for me to drag you in here. There are many people outside searching for you.我好不容易才将您带到了这里，外面有很多人在找您。
PersicariaWhat on earth happened?究竟是发生了什么事？
ProfessorIt's, uh, it's a long story...这个嘛，说来话长了……
PersicariaShhh, be quiet.嘘，先别出声。
Well... It's a long story...帕斯卡阻止了我继续说下去。外面传来脚步声，似乎有人在周围搜寻。
Persicaria...It seems we don't have much time left. I have something that I want to tell you.……看来我们的时间不多了。我有话想和您说。
Persicaria's expression is unusually stern. As I look at her face, I can't help but get serious too.帕斯卡的表情异常严肃。看着她的神情，我也不由得郑重起来。
Persicaria..., we've spent a lot of time together.……，我们一路走来，已经共度了很久的时光了。
PersicariaI wonder if you still remember the words I once said to you.不知道您还记不记得，曾经我和您说过一句话。
Persicaria"I hope you remember that in this world, there will always be someone standing behind you and always supporting you."“希望您记住，在这个世界上，总有一个人会在您身后，永远支持着您。”
ProfessorI...我……
Persicaria takes my chin between her fingers and gazes deeply into my eyes.帕斯卡捧住我的脸颊，深情地望着我的双眸。
PersicariaWhen a person is born, they search tirelessly for their other half. While I'd long since found them... I could not bring myself to speak; all I could do was watch them silently from behind.每一个人在诞生之后都必须寻找到另一半，我虽然早已寻到……但却无法说出口，只能默默地看着的背影。

PersicariaI...我……
Snap!咔嚓！
Just then, a flashbulb illuminates the darkened room.就在这时，闪光灯忽然照亮了黑暗的房间。
WillowAh... I forgot to turn off the flash! Sorry! I'm so sorry!啊……忘记关闪光灯了！对不起对不起！！
KimieWillow-san, that was a little rude. They were still filming.薇洛儿小姐，这稍微有一点失礼了。拍摄还在进行中呢。
WillowI'm sorry... But that was simply a picture-worthy moment, I couldn't help wanting to preserve it for posterity...抱歉……这个场景实在是太难得了，我忍不住想记录一下……

ZionI... want... to try too...我……也想……试试……
WillowI'll handle the photography, then! Just give me a chance to make up for my mistakes!那拍摄就交给我吧！给我一个将功补过的机会！
Just as the Dolls launch into a heated argument about what exactly they're going to film, a sudden round of applause comes from outside the door.人形们激烈地讨论着拍摄内容时，门外忽然传来了一阵热烈的掌声。
梅丽尔What an interesting film this is going to be.真是一场非常有意思的好电影。

黑道保镖爱莉卡... I see... So, you betrayed us in the end?……原来如此……你终究还是背叛了吗？
However, no box but a coffin can hold a secret, and in the end the girl's existence was revealed to both sides.然而天底下没有不透风的墙，最终少女的存在还是被黑白两道所知晓。
ProfessorDon't ask questions! Just come with me!不要问！快跟我走！
A hail of bullets crashes down on the place where and the girl were just a moment ago...弹雨覆盖了少女和所在的位置……
小二希安Leave... this place... to me!这里……交给我……你们走！
ProfessorZion!希安！
小二希安There must.. be justice... in the world!这世间……不能……没有公道！
小二希安Yeeart!嗬！
With both the police and the Triad in hot pursuit, not even the help of their friends can save them.黑白两道同时的追杀，即使是有好友相助也无力回天。
少女帕斯卡Ugh...呜……
黑道千金君惠I'll be taking her, then.她就先由我收下了。
ProfessorPersicaria! Kimie... Why are you...帕斯卡！君惠……为什么你会……
黑道千金君惠I'll wait for you at the usual place, ...我在老地方等你，……
In order to rescue the girl who was kidnapped by the Triad, once again calls his senior Xinghuan.为了救回被黑帮绑走的少女，再一次拨通了前辈星寰的号码。
便衣特工星寰(Coughs) Forget me, ... Just go...咳咳咳……不用管我了……快走。

便衣特工星寰I just have... one question... Have you lived up to the oath you took with your actions?你只需要……回答我一个问题。你所做的事情……对得起自己对组织的誓言吗？

ProfessorKimie... Erika's already...君惠……爱莉卡她已经……

黑道千金君惠But perhaps I was hoping you would, somewhere in my heart.但在我心中，或许还留有一丝希望吧。
ProfessorPlease, Kimie... step aside...君惠……让开……
黑道千金君惠Go ahead and shoot, ... I'll shoot too, so you don't need to think about sparing me.开枪吧，……我也会开枪的，所以你不必手下留情。
Bang! Bang! A pair of gunshots ring out almost simultaneously.砰！砰！两声枪响几乎同时响起。
黑道千金君惠Congratulations, ... The two of you are free now. And congratulations, Miss Persicaria...恭喜你，……你和她都自由了。也恭喜你了，帕斯卡小姐……
少女帕斯卡! This blood... why... why won't it stop flowing... why...！血……为什么……为什么止不住……为什么……
ProfessorDon't cry... Persicaria...别哭……帕斯卡……
ProfessorI... love...我……爱……
The Triad mansion is consumed in flames, and all traces of Operation Dragonseize are lost in the long river of time...烈火吞没了黑道的宅邸……而夺龙相关的事迹也被隐没在历史的长河之中……
But in Kowloon city, a girl with long pink hair once again returns to a certain restaurant...但是在九龙城寨之中，一名粉色长发的少女又一次出现在了饭店之中……
In the Oasis Admin Center, inside the Projection Room.绿洲，行政中心，电影放映室。
XinghuanEh? It's over? Right here? All of a sudden?!诶？！结束了吗！就在这里？！戛然而止？！
PersicariaMiss Meryl said... it was a sequel hook...梅丽尔小姐说……这是为了续集做准备……
梅丽尔There are greater considerations at work here, yes.这里头自然而然是有一些大人的考量啦。
KimieIs this what they call a suspense-building technique in movies?这就是电影经常使用的留白手法吗？
ErikaSomehow... It doesn't quite feel that way.我觉得……不太一样吧。
XinghuanZion's action scenes were great, though.不过希安的武打镜头真的很帅啊。
ZionThank... Thank you...谢……谢谢……
JiangyuHehe, she's my hand-raised No. 1 disciple, after all!嗯哼，那毕竟是我亲手调教出来的头号弟子啊！
KimieErika's scene where she faced down the entire horde by herself was quite something too.爱莉卡一人成军的战斗方式也着实让人印象深刻。
KimiePerhaps... I could try using a gun next time.下一次……我也想试试枪械呢。
ErikaIf you're interested, I can teach you. You might end up being as gifted as Xinghuan too.如果你有兴趣我可以教你。或许你也和星寰一样天赋异禀。
XinghuanPersicaria?帕斯卡？
PersicariaHm? Eh? W-What happened?嗯？诶？怎、怎么了？
XinghuanYou've been spacing out ever since the movie ended. Your face is super red too.从刚刚电影放映完帕斯卡就一直在发呆哦。而且脸也很红。
PersicariaIs... Is that so...是……是这样吗……
ZionPersicaria's scenes... with the Professor... were really convincing.帕斯卡……教授……片段……很露骨。
KimieIndeed. Even the delivery of the line "The moon tonight... is so lovely..." was filled with the feelings the two characters had for each other.嗯，即使是用“今夜月色真美”这样含蓄的说法，也难以遮掩两名角色的感情。
XinghuanI'm actually kind of jealous.稍微让人有些嫉妒呢。
After hearing the others comment on her performance, even Persicaria's ears start turning pink.听着众人对自己的情节的点评，帕斯卡的耳根都有些微微泛红。
PersicariaP-Professor, what did you think of this movie?教、教授觉得这一次的电影怎么样？
Persicaria directs a pleading look at me.帕斯卡向我投来了求助的目光。
ProfessorLike, apart from the spotlight scenes... I was pretty much being dragged from place to place.似乎除了补拍的高光镜头外……我一直都是被人扛着走啊……
ProfessorXinghuan tied me up and hauled me off, Erika kidnapped me, Zion rescued me, Kimie dragged me by the hand...被星寰绑走，被爱莉卡劫走，被希安救走，被君惠拉着跑……
XinghuanAhahaha... Now that you mention it...啊哈哈哈……这么说来好像确实……
总感觉比起主角，我更像一个行李啊。
这究竟算警匪片还是黑道电影还是玄幻片……
梅丽尔Apparently, an emoji pack from the scene where you were dragged up and down several floors has become the most-downloaded item on the Oasis forums.据我所知，教授扛几楼的表情包已经成为了麦戈拉热度榜第一。
ProfessorAnd in the end nobody even explained why they had to "seize the dragon".而且到最后为什么要“夺龙”也没有解释。
ZionIndeed.确实……
PersicariaAlso, does this even count as a New Year movie?话说这个真的能当贺岁电影吗？
梅丽尔Mm, looks like you're happy with the movie, Professor.嗯嗯，看来教授对电影非常满意。
ProfessorWhich part of what I said just now sounded like I was happy with it?我刚刚的说法中……到底哪里让你感觉到满意了？
梅丽尔A-Ahem... Ah... let's not sweat the small stuff.咳咳咳……这个……不要在意细节。
梅丽尔However, since the movie's been screened, there's the matter of the promised payment and granting your wish, right, Professor?不过，既然影片成功上映了，除了之前说的酬劳，还要实现教授的愿望不是吗？
梅丽尔Go on, Professor. Tell me your wish. If it is within Burbank's power to give, then I will satisfy your desire.教授，说说你的愿望吧，只要是伯班克可以做到的都可以满足你。
ProfessorSpeaking of which, what was everyone's wish, anyway?这么说起来，大家的愿望是什么？
XinghuanActually, I just came to bug you because it seemed kind of fun. But if you must know...其实我当时只是觉得好玩才来找教授的，不过真要问的话……
XinghuanAh! I want to make a space sci-fi action movie!啊！我想拍摄太空机战的电影！
ErikaI want more bookshelves and gun racks...更多的书柜和枪柜……
ProfessorThat's pretty straightforward...很直白的需求呢。
ZionI just... wanted to... practice... my speaking...我……只是……想……多练习……说话……
KimieI'd like our friends from the other Sectors to visit the Shrine.希望其他扇区的朋友也可以来神社坐坐。
PersicariaThe Professor's wish... is my wish.教授的愿望……就是我的愿望。
ProfessorLooks like everyone was drawn by the promise of the wish, but you don't have anything special in mind.看来大家虽然是被愿望所吸引，但是似乎都没有什么特别的想法呢。
梅丽尔Hehehe, perhaps that's why the Oasis delivers such pure performances.呵呵呵，或许就是因为这样，绿洲才能拍出这么纯粹的内容吧。
梅丽尔What about your wish, Professor?那么你的愿望是什么呢，教授？
ProfessorMy wish, hm...我的愿望啊……
I look around. The Dolls are all looking at me with sparkling eyes, their faces filled with lovely smiles.我环顾四周，身边每一位人形都用闪闪发亮的眼睛看着我，脸上展露出无比动人的笑容。
ProfessorHm... Perhaps things are fine as they are now.嗯……或许现在这样就好。
ProfessorMay the coming year be smooth sailing, and may things go well for all of us. I wish everyone in the Oasis a peaceful and Happy New Year.希望来年顺遂无虞，皆得所愿。绿洲的大家，都能够度过平安祥和的一年。
梅丽尔Got it... Then Burbank will do its best to help the Oasis from now on.我明白了……那么，之后伯班克也会竭尽所能帮助绿洲。
PersicariaThank you, Miss Meryl.谢谢您，梅丽尔小姐。
PersicariaI'm sure the Professor's wish will come true. I believe everyone else feels the same way too.我想教授的愿望一定会实现的，大家都这么相信着。
Just then, the fireworks go off outside. The New Year party outside comes to an end.适时窗外的烟花炸响，新春晚会已经拉开了序幕。
A year has ended, but another has only just begun.既宣告着过去一年的结束，也是新一年的开始。
The Dolls run outside to marvel at the fireworks, while Persicaria steps forward so she is by my side and looks up at Magrasea's night sky.人形们纷纷跑到房间外看烟花，而帕斯卡上前一步，与我并肩而立，仰望麦戈拉的夜空。
PersicariaProfessor, I'll remain by your side for this new year.教授，新的一年，我也会陪伴在您身边的。
PersicariaHappy New Year.新年快乐。
Glad Tidings From The Golden Dragon 金龙报喜
Read this chapter with voices →???Groar—吼——
PersicariaHm? Why is there a dragon here...咦？这里为什么有一只神龙……
XinghuanCould this be Shen Long, as in the one awakened from the 12 legendary Dragon Orbs in "Dragon Orb ZZZ"?难道是传说中的十二龙珠唤醒的神龙？！
KimieSomething like this... shouldn't exist on the Cloud.云端上……应该不存在这种事物才对。
XinghuanHm? But it looks just like the one in those manga you lent me, Erika. Doesn't it?诶？但是这个造型和之前爱莉卡你借给我的漫画里画得一模一样吧？
ErikaIt does look like a wish-granting divine dragon... Albeit a little smaller.确实是可以实现任意愿望的神龙……虽然体积上好像小了一点。
ProfessorI don't think the Oasis has any records for a dragon... Could Meryl have brought it over?绿洲似乎并没有制作龙的模型的记录……难道是梅丽尔带过来的？
???Groar!!!吼！！！
ZionIs... it... nodding?它……好像在……点头？
XinghuanSo Meryl brought it over? I get it now, maybe this is her way of granting a wish.梅丽尔带过来的？我明白了，难道这就是实现愿望的方式？
XinghuanProfessor, Professor, give it a try.教授，教授。快试试看。
ProfessorEr... Why me?呃……为什么是我？
XinghuanHow often do chances like this come around, anyway? Why not give it a shot?难得的机会，教授就不想试试吗？
PersicariaWell, if it's really like what Xinghuan said... Maybe it's worth testing out.如果真的如星寰所说……或许验证一下比较好。
PersicariaRelax, Professor. We'll be protecting you from the side.教授请放心，我们会在旁边守护着你的。
Professor...(Sigh) I understand.……唉，我明白了……
I look at "Shen Long" before me and sigh in resignation.我看着眼前的“神龙”，有些无奈地叹了一口气。
ProfessorWell, since I'm testing it out, perhaps I should make a wish whose effects are easily discernable...既然要实验，就许一个比较容易看出差别的愿望吧……
ProfessorI wish my wallet were full of Quartz Sand!希望我的小金库里有更多的石英砂！
???Groar!!!嘎吼！
Shen Long coughs up a mysterious gift.神龙吐出了神秘礼物。
Professor...It actually worked...……居然是真的……
XinghuanWait, really? Then I should make a wish too... Wait a minute, where did it go?真的吗？那我要赶紧许愿……咦？神龙呢？
Shen Long is nowhere to be seen.原本神龙所在的位置已经没有了神龙的踪影。
ProfessorCome to think of it, in "Dragon Orb ZZZ", Shen Long only grants one wish at a time.这么说来《十二龙珠》里，神龙也只能实现一次愿望啊。
Xinghuan(Groans) Aw man...诶……可惜……
Pendent Aria 垂蓼沁韵
Read this chapter with voices →Ath the Oasis' New Year Party.绿洲，新春宴会会场。
The party is winding down, but everyone is still in high spirits.宴会行至尾声，但大家的热情却丝毫没有退却。
XinghuanWoohoo! Another round!呜呼！再来一杯！
Kimie...Zzzz...zzzz...……呼……呼……
XinghuanWait a minute! Kimie, why are you asleep? Aw, this is no fun, come join me for a drink, Professor... Eh? The Professor's gone!等等，君惠你怎么睡着了！不行，不过瘾，教授陪我……诶？！教授不见了！
ErikaWhat? To think they slipped away from under my watchful gaze... Don't worry, I'll bring them back.什么？居然从我的眼皮底下溜走了……不要紧，我会将带回来的。
ZionShooting indoors... dangerous... you broke... wine bottle!室内射击……危险……酒瓶碎了！
The threshold between this year and the next draws near, and the Dolls slowly get utterly sloshed amidst the festive mood in the air.距离跨年的时间越来越近，人形们也在欢愉的气氛之中逐渐化为了醉猫。
ProfessorWhew... I escaped at last. They get harder to handle with each year that goes by...呼……终于逃出来了。大家的战斗力还真是一年比一年强了……
Professor...No, I should say the Oasis gets livelier with each year that passes.……不，应该说绿洲一年比一年热闹了吗。
I can't help waxing sentimental as I look back at the Dolls, who are all having fun in a big group. The Oasis has been through a lot during the past year, and it's changed just as much. However, some people and things never change.我回望向会场中闹作一团的人形们，不禁有些感慨。一年以来，绿洲经历了许多，也有了不少改变。但总有一些人和事，是一直不变的。
Just then, I realize that a certain someone's who's been by my side all this while has vanished.这时，我才注意到一直陪伴在身边的那个身影不知去了哪里。
ProfessorHm? Not here...嗯？不在……
ProfessorCould it be...难道说……
At the Oasis' lounge.绿洲，休息区。
PersicariaUrgh...呜……
Persicaria leans against a nearby wall with one hand and rubs her aching ankle with the other.帕斯卡一手扶着墙壁，另一只手揉了揉发疼的脚踝。
Persicaria(Winces) Ow...……嘶……痛……
PersicariaThese shoes didn't fit me after all... I thought I could just endure it until the party ended, but I guess that was too much to ask.果然这双鞋子不太合脚啊……原本以为能就这样坚持到宴会结束的，还是有点勉强了。
Persicaria...Nobody should be passing through here, right... I'll just rest for a bit before going back to the party...……这里应该不会有人经过吧……稍微调整一下就回会场吧……
Persicaria bends down and takes off her heels, but as she does, her shawl falls to the ground.帕斯卡弯腰摘下高跟鞋，但随着肩部的动作，披肩也滑落到了地上。
PersicariaAh...啊……
PersicariaEh? P-Professor?! When, when did you... Aiiieee!诶？教、教授？！您、您什么时候……呀啊！
PersicariaEh... P-Professor?! Why are you... uwaah!诶……教、教授？！您怎么……哇啊啊！
需要我帮忙吗？
（默不作声，帮帕斯卡捡起披肩。）
Persicaria frantically tries to turn around, but her shoes make her lose her balance.帕斯卡慌乱地想要回过身来，却因为鞋子不稳而失去了平衡。
ProfessorCareful!小心！
I rush forward. Persicaria falls into my arms and her face instantly turns beet red.我箭步向前。帕斯卡倒在我怀里，脸霎时变得通红。
PersicariaPro-pro-pro-pro-professor... I'm sorry... Ah, no, I mean, thank you...教教教教教授……对不起……啊不是，那个，谢谢您……
PersicariaMm, my system's clock speed was running beyond the normal limits, I might need to cool down a little... ah...嗯，系统运转速率已经超过正常范围了，可能需要进行冷却……啊……
Persicaria reflexively delivers a report on herself, then she suddenly realizes what she's doing. She looks up at my face and blushes even redder than before.帕斯卡下意识地进行着汇报，忽然意识到了什么，抬头看见我的表情，脸变得更红了。
PersicariaProfessor, don't bully me at times like this...这个时候就别继续捉弄我了啦，教授……
你的脸好红，是系统过载了吗？
不用谢。你还好吗？
PersicariaI'm fine! (Pants) Um, I was just surprised by you suddenly showing up, and because you were so close all of a sudden...我没事的！呼……嗯，只是教授突然出现，而且一下子距离这么近……
Persicaria closes her eyes and takes a deep breath. After calming down a little, she smiles at me.帕斯卡闭上眼深吸了一口气，似乎冷静下来了一些，向我露出了一个笑容。
PersicariaStill, you're always there when I need it the most. Thank you, Professor.不过，您总是在我最需要帮助的时候出现呢。谢谢您，教授。
Persicaria slowly gets up, but she still seems a little shaky on her feat. I look down and see the culprit.帕斯卡缓缓直起身来，但身形依旧有些不稳。我低下头去，注意到了事件的元凶。
ProfessorWhat happened to your shoes?你的鞋子怎么了？
PersicariaThey didn't fit too well... It's nothing.稍微有点不合脚而已……不是什么大事。
ProfessorSo you wore a pair of ill-fitting shoes all day long? You poor thing. I'll help you over to the sofa so you can rest.穿着不合脚的鞋子还走了一天，真是辛苦你了。我先扶你到沙发上休息吧。
Persicaria nods. I support her with an arm around the waist and slowly ease her over to the sofa in the room.帕斯卡点了点头。我扶着她的腰，缓缓挪动到房间内沙发的边缘。
ProfessorWait here for a while, I'll go see if there are any spare shoes for you...你在这里等一会儿，我去看看有没有备用的鞋子……
PersicariaAh, wait, Professor...啊，等等，教授……
Just as I'm about to leave, Persicaria tugs on my coat.我正准备离开，帕斯卡却拉住了我的衣角。
PersicariaI'm just not too used to those shoes. I'll be fine after a little rest.我只是有点不太适应这双鞋子，稍微休息一会儿就好了。
PersicariaI don't think anyone will pass by here for a while... Could you keep me company for a bit?这里应该暂时不会有人经过……您能在这里多陪我一会儿吗？
Persicaria eyes me nervously, her ears briefly pressing flat against her head. I can't resist the urge to pat her head.帕斯卡小心翼翼地看着我，耳朵不时扑闪一下。我忍不住摸了摸她的头。
ProfessorOf course I can.当然可以。
ProfessorOh yes, are your feet alright? Need me to check on them for you?对了，你的脚还好吗？需要我帮你检查一下吗？
PersicariaHuh? Ah... mmm...诶？啊……嗯……
Though she's clearly embarrassed, Persicaria nods.虽然显得有些害羞，但帕斯卡还是点了点头。
I get to one knee and peel her stockings off, resting her foot on my knee.我半跪在地上，将她的高跟鞋和袜子缓缓脱下后，让她将脚放在我的膝上。
PersicariaProfessor... Mmmf!教授……呜！
ProfessorDoes it hurt here? Looks like you twisted your ankle... and you've got abrasions on the sides and back of your feet.是这里痛吗？看来是脚踝扭到了……脚后和侧面也有一些擦伤。
ProfessorThis module damage must have been caused by a mismatch between the data of your shoes and your feet. I can't believe you managed to hold out this long...应该是鞋子的数据和你脚部不匹配才会导致模块损伤吧，真亏你能坚持到现在……
Persicaria's face goes red and she lowers her head like a misbehaving child.帕斯卡红着脸低下了头，仿佛做错事的孩子一般。
Pale blue operands gather in my hand and I gently infuse them into Persicaria's feet.我手中凝聚出淡蓝色的算量，轻轻地敷在帕斯卡的创口之上。
Persicaria...May I know why you came here? Surely there must be many people who wish to spend such an important night with you, are there not?……您怎么会来这里？这么重要的夜晚，应该有许多人想找您一同度过吧？
ProfessorEveryone's still engrossed with the party. As for why I'm here...会场的大家还在狂欢呢……至于我为什么会在这里。
ProfessorWell, I noticed that my adjutant had flashes of uncomfortable looks on her face throughout the party, and then she suddenly vanished halfway through it.毕竟我的副官在晚宴上时不时就会露出不适的表情，而且突然就从会场中消失了啊。
PersicariaAh... So you noticed...啊……您注意到了啊……
ProfessorWell, it's your fault for always pushing yourself too hard... Your ankle should be fine now. Does it still hurt?谁让你总是这样勉强自己……这样一来脚踝应该没问题了，你看看，还疼吗？
PersicariaNo, it doesn't...已经不疼了……
ProfessorNow I'll help you with the abrasions on the back and sides of your feet.那我再帮你处理一下脚后和侧面的伤口。
PersicariaThank you... and sorry for making you worry, Professor.谢谢您……让您担心了，教授。
Persicaria shifts her ankle to allow me better access to her feet. She looks quite relieved.帕斯卡配合我的动作微微转动脚踝，表情轻松了不少。
Persicaria...Although, I have to say I'm a little happy that you were paying so close attention to me, Professor.……不过教授居然能注意到我的状况。稍微有点开心呢。
ProfessorWell, I've always been watching you ever since we came back from the Enigma Sector.毕竟自从我们从恩格玛扇区返回以来，我一直都在关注帕斯卡啊。
PersicariaEhhhh?!诶？！
ProfessorWell, you took on most of the responsibilities of managing the Oasis ever since then. Be it festive events, the various miscellaneous matters in the Dolls' lives...自从那一次以后，帕斯卡包揽了绿洲绝大多数的事务。不论是节日的活动，还是人形平时生活中大小碎事。
ProfessorIt's all thanks to you taking over most of the work that I could better handle the crisis Magrasea is facing...多亏了帕斯卡将大部分工作接手，我才能够更好地处理麦戈拉的危机……
PersicariaProfessor...教授……
ProfessorThat said, we still have a long way to go. This is going to be an extended campaign.但是啊，我们的道路还很漫长，这是一场旷日持久的战役。
ProfessorYou need to take better care of yourself so you can keep going on.为了之后更好地走下去，你也一定要好好地照顾自己。
PersicariaUnderstood... Don't worry, Professor. I'm not overworking myself.我明白……教授，放心吧，我没有在勉强自己。
ProfessorEven though you've been suffering all night?明明今晚难受了一个晚上？
PersicariaProfessor, I wasn't... Eeep, P-Professor, did you raise your operand output on purpose?教授我没……噫——教、教授，你是故意提升算量的输出的吧！
Persicaria reflexively pulls her foot back and gives me a pouty glare.帕斯卡下意识地抽回了自己的脚，气鼓鼓地看着我。
Professor(Sigh) You keep going on about how you're fine, but you've been tensed up all night.唉……虽然嘴上说自己没事，但是今天晚上的你可是全程紧绷着。
ProfessorAlso... I know exactly how much overtime you put in so everyone could enjoy this night.而且……为了让大家开心地享受今夜，这段时间你究竟加班了多长时间，我是清楚的。
Persicaria...Yeah...……嗯……
ProfessorSorry, I'm not as skilled as a proper healer. I guess I went a little too hard just now. Have a look, are the abrasions better now?抱歉，我的手法没有医师那么专业，刚才有些用力了。你看看，伤口处理好了吗？
PersicariaAh, they're healed...啊，已经好了……
Persicaria looks down and lightly kicks her feet.帕斯卡低着头，轻轻晃动着双腿。
Persicaria...Perhaps it's like you said and I really was pushing myself too hard just now without realizing it.……或许就像教授所说的一样，我又不知不觉在勉强自己了。
PersicariaWhenever I see you leading everyone from behind, I get a little anxious and find myself wanting to do more for you.看着您率领大家前进的背影，我总是会不由得有些焦躁，想着是否能为您做更多。
ProfessorYou've done enough. Sometimes, it's okay to rely on me.你已经做了够多了。有时候依靠我也没关系的。
PersicariaYou're right, Professor.确实正如教授所说呢。
Persicaria chuckles and I sit down beside her. She turns to look at me.帕斯卡轻声笑了起来。我顺势起身坐在了她身边，她转头看着我。
Persicaria...Yeah, this dress doesn't fit me too well. However, I chose it for a reason.……这身礼服确实没有那么合身。不过我选择它的原因，却并非因为逞强。
PersicariaProfessor, what do you think of this hastily-made projection?这身加急定制的投影……教授觉得如何？
PersicariaWell, hearing that from you means I've achieved my aim.能听到教授这句话，我的目的也就达成了。
Persicaria looks at her feet and then she suddenly presses up against me, as though she's thought of something.帕斯卡看向自己晃动的双脚，忽然像是想到了什么，凑近了我。
PersicariaAlthough... Since it was a rush job for tonight...不过……因为是为了今晚加急定制的礼服……
PersicariaIt does seem a little tight... especially on the side, here.裙子确实有一些紧……尤其是侧面这里。
非常漂亮。
我觉得很适合帕斯卡。
PersicariaProfessor, I can't quite reach the laces on the back... Would you mind helping to loosen them for me?教授，我有点够不到身后的带子……能麻烦您帮我松一松吗？
ProfessorHuh? But... that's not quite appropriate... is it...诶？这……这个不合适……吧……
PersicariaProfessor, you said it was okay for me to rely on you, right?教授都说了……我可以依赖教授，对吧？
As I see the mirth in Persicaria's eyes, all I can do is nod.看着帕斯卡带着笑意的双眸，我只能点了点头。
Professor...I ...I understand...……这……我、我知道了……
ProfessorPardon me...失礼了……
I turn away and feel around for the laces in question.我扭过头，伸出手想要找到帕斯卡的衣带。
PersicariaProfessor, you won't find them if you don't look...教授，不好好看着的话是找不到的啦……
ProfessorEr... okay...呃……好……
With no alternative, I turn my eyes back toward Persicaria's body and slowly reach out to pull on the laces of her dress.无奈之下，我只能重新将视线集中在帕斯卡的身上，缓缓伸出手拉住了帕斯卡的衣带。
ProfessorI... er... I'm going to begin...那……我要解开了……
PersicariaMm, please do...嗯，拜托了……
My fingertips gently tug on the lacing and the knot they lead into slowly undoes itself and finally loosens up.我的指尖轻轻拉动了衣带，纠缠在一起的结缓缓松开，最终完全松脱。
In order to avoid the development which is extremely likely to ensue, I quickly close my eyes and turn away.为了避免接下来极有可能的展开，我急忙闭上了眼睛，扭过头。
PersicariaPfft... Professor, your face is so...噗……教授的表情……
PersicariaI'm sorry... Professor, open your eyes. Relax, nothing happened.抱歉……教授，请睁开眼睛吧。放心吧，什么都没发生哦。
ProfessorHm?嗯？
I slowly open my eyes and see that Persicaria's qipao is still on her body.我缓缓睁开眼睛，看到帕斯卡身上依旧整齐地穿着那一身旗袍。
PersicariaThat lace was just a decorative fastener. There's no need to worry, Professor.这条带子，只是装饰用的带子而已。请教授放心。
PersicariaSince we're in the lounge...毕竟这里是绿洲的休息区，所以……
PersicariaAlthough, the expression on your face just now was so amusing that I couldn't resist...只是教授刚刚的表情实在是太有趣了，我没有忍住……
Professor...So you've got a side like this to you, Persicaria.……原来帕斯卡也有这样的一面啊。
PersicariaWell, I've been by your side for so long that I ended up being influenced by the company I kept.在教授身边这么久了，耳濡目染了一些而已。
Persicaria laces herself up again and turns to me with a gentle look in her eyes.帕斯卡将带子重新系好，看向我的目光变得十分温柔。
PersicariaBut you're right, Professor... I've been pushing myself a little too hard tonight.确实如教授所说……今天晚上的我有一点勉强自己了。
PersicariaPerhaps finding a pair of shoes that don't fit my outfit but do fit my feet would make things better. However, that pain was worth suffering through since it made you notice me, Professor.或许找一双不那么搭配，但合脚的鞋子会好一些。不过能被教授注意到，这份疼痛也很值得呢。
PersicariaThat said... it's slightly different when it comes to work.但是……工作上的事情却有那么一点点不同哦。
Persicaria looks into my eyes earnestly and speaks in a serious tone.帕斯卡认真地盯着我的眼睛，十分郑重地说道。
PersicariaLike you said, Professor, it's going to be an extended campaign... Much, much longer than we imagined it to be.就和教授所说的一样，这是一场旷日持久的战役……比我，比我们一开始想象中要长久得多。
PersicariaProfessor, a long time has passed since we met each other on the Cloud.教授，从我们在云端结识以来，已经过去很久了。
PersicariaI've tried to keep up with you in terms of battle, management, or exploration... But every time I take a step forward, I find that you've already moved several steps ahead.我一直在尝试追逐教授的脚步，战斗，管理，探索……但是我每一次前进了一步，却发现教授已经前进了数步。
ProfessorPersicaria, I already said...帕斯卡，我刚才已经说了……
PersicariaYes, I understand.嗯，我明白。
Persicaria nods.帕斯卡点了点头。
PersicariaIn the past, perhaps I would have overworked myself to try and match your pace. I would have gone without rest, food, or sleep to make sure everything I did was perfect...如果是以前我一定会为了追寻教授的步伐勉强自己，废寝忘食地想要把所有的事情都做到极致……
PersicariaAnd then I'd run myself ragged, and then I'd run away... in the hopes of relying on you.然后将自己弄得千疮百孔，然后逃避……想要依赖教授吧。
PersicariaBut now, I... I'm not my old, naive self any more.但是现在的我……已经不是过去那个稚嫩的自己了。
PersicariaI understand that I can't handle everything at once like you can, and that I can't bring everybody together like you can...我明白，我无法像教授那样在各个势力之间周旋，也没有教授那样将大家凝聚在一起的能力……
ProfessorPersicaria...帕斯卡……
PersicariaI thought about a lot of things in the Enigma Sector. I thought about what I wanted to do, the kind of person I wanted to become... and how exactly I ought to help you, Professor.在恩格玛的时候我想了很多。我到底想要做什么，我到底想要成为什么样的人……我到底应该怎么样帮助教授。
PersicariaIf I simply imitate you... then I'll be playing catch-up all my life.单纯地模仿教授……只能成为一个在同样道路上的追随者而已。
PersicariaAnd I don't want to just be a follower.我不希望自己只是一个追随者。
PersicariaRather than trailing behind you, I'd rather stand beside you, so I can be the kind of person who can see the same things as you.比起追随在教授的身后，我更希望能够并肩站在教授的身边，成为和教授观看同样风景的那个人。
Professor...Looks like you put a lot of thought into this, Persicaria.……原来你认真地考虑过了呀，帕斯卡。
PersicariaYes. After all, you're not the only one who's moving forward.是呀，不只是教授一个人在前进哦。
PersicariaTherefore, taking on the Oasis' tasks of my own accord is the answer I reached.所以，这一段时间我主动承担绿洲的事务，是我所得出的最终答案。
PersicariaIt's the little things that take up most of your time and energy, but a Doll can handle them with just a bit of processing power.琐碎的工作会占据教授大量的时间和精力，但是对于人形来说只需要分出一部分算力即可处理。
PersicariaThey're little things, but I think it's the best way I can help you.虽然只是些小事，但是我认为这是我实实在在可以帮助到教授的方式了。
ProfessorThank you for thinking of me.感谢你为我着想……
ProfessorThis time, you've truly exceeded my expectations.这一次，你真的给了我一个超乎想象的惊喜呢。
PersicariaThat's simply my duty as your adjutant.这是身为教授的副官应尽的责任。
ProfessorLooks like I was worrying too much. You don't need me to go out of my way to micromanage you any more.看来是我多虑了啊，现在的你已经不需要我专门叮嘱了。
PersicariaYeah... Although, you being concerned about me makes me feel very happy...嗯……但是被教授关心我还是很开心的……
谢谢你，帕斯卡。
帕斯卡……你成长了呢。
PersicariaProfessor, I want to... Hm?教授，我想……嗯？
Before Persicaria can finish, a raucous cry comes from outside the lounge.还未等帕斯卡说完，休息区外就传来了喧闹的声音。
持枪的修女Professor, don't think you can just run off like that, I'll find you...教授，别想就这样跑掉哦，我一定会找到您的……
摇晃的巫女Is the Professor in danger? Kimie will go right... Xinghuan, quit pushing... ah...!难不成教授是遇到了危险？君惠立刻去……星寰你不要推……啊……！
醉酒的宇航员Professor! No running away from your drinks! Luna, is this where the Professor is?教授！逃酒是不行的哦！月光，教授是在这个位置吗？
宿醉的占卜师Yup, according to my reading, they ought to be here... eh? How come the runestone broke... That's so weird, hahaha...嗯，根据我占卜的方向应该就是这个位置了……诶……为什么符文石分裂了……好奇怪啊哈哈哈……
无辜的救援队Dammit, you boozers! Put me down before looking for the Professor!你们这帮醉鬼，找教授前先把我放下来啊！
After hearing the increasingly-ridiculous yells from outside the lounge, I shake my head in exasperation.听着休息区外越来越离谱的叫喊声，我有些无奈地摇了摇头。
ProfessorLooks like it's time to head back... Wha?!看来是时候回去了呢……唔？！
Before I can get up, Persicaria hugs me tightly.还没有等我起身，帕斯卡就猛地抱住了我。
PersicariaShhh.嘘。
Persicaria presses a finger against my lips.帕斯卡伸出了一根手指抵住了我的嘴唇。
醉酒的宇航员Professor? Professor? Hm... There's nobody here!教授？教授？嗯……根本没有人嘛！
从容的净化者Hehehe, perhaps the Professor is hiding somewhere and spying on us.呵呵呵，或许教授正躲在某个地方悄悄地观察着我们呢。
醉酒的宇航员Keep looking! Keep looking! Go go go!再找再找！走走走！
As the footsteps fade into the distance, Persicaria lowers her hand.随着脚步声的远去，帕斯卡将手放了下来。
PersicariaIt's been so long since I was last alone with you, Professor... I won't let anyone disturb us tonight.难得的……和教授一起的时光，今天我绝不会让其他人打扰了哦。
PersicariaSince we're on the cusp of the new year, please allow me to indulge myself, just this once.在这辞旧迎新的时间，就让我稍微任性一下吧。
I look at Persicaria's flushed, pink face.我看着帕斯卡带着红晕的面容。
PersicariaSometimes, I need to listen to my heart... That's what you taught me, right, Professor?有时候也要遵从自己的本心……这也是教授教导我的，不是吗？
Persicaria...May I, Professor?……可以吗，教授？
ProfessorIf I leave them alone, there'll probably be a big disaster tomorrow.放任他们不管的话，明天可能就是大灾难了哦。
PersicariaDon't worry, I'll take care of it.不用担心，我会担负起责任处理好的。
ProfessorHehehe, looks like you really are different from how you were before, but you're still Persicaria.呵呵呵，看来帕斯卡确实和过去不同了，但是依旧是帕斯卡啊。
I reach out and gently touch her cheek.我伸出手触碰帕斯卡的脸颊。
帕斯卡，你学坏了哦。
帕斯卡是在和我撒娇吗？
PersicariaIn that case... Will you spend this time with me, Professor?那么……教授愿意和我一起共度这段时间吗？
ProfessorI suppose I can't handle those drunks after being all worn out.本来就已经劳累过度的我再去应付那帮醉猫，也确实不太合适。
ProfessorI'll let them party the night away.就让他们好好狂欢一个晚上吧。
PersicariaProfessor...教授……
ProfessorPersicaria, I will find all the Dolls, as well as a way to leave this place.帕斯卡，我一定会找到所有的人形，并且找到离开这里的方法的。
ProfessorUntil then, please stay by my side.在我达成这一切之前，就拜托你继续陪在我身边了。
PersicariaNot just... in here...不只是……在这里……
ProfessorHm?嗯？
答应。
PersicariaI told you just now, didn't I? When I said I wanted to see the same sights as you... I wasn't just referring to the Cloud.刚刚我不是说了吗？我想要和教授看到一样的风景……不仅仅是云端。
PersicariaEven if we leave the Cloud, no matter which world we're in...哪怕是离开了云端，不论在哪一个世界。
PersicariaAs long as you need me, our paths will cross again.只要教授有需要我的时候，我们的道路就一定会再一次相会。
