Read this chapter with voices →At the Oasis, in the Ops Room.绿洲，指挥部。
LamBoss, here's the Oasis' financial report for this month.Boss，这是这个月的绿洲财政报告书。
ProfessorOur operand use rate went up that much? It's a two-digit percentage increase. That's new. Did that newcomer... What was her name... Yelena, did she do that?算量利用率提升这么多？两位数的百分比，新鲜啊。那个新来的……嗯……叶莲娜做的？
ProfessorNo, wait, wasn't she supposed to be a TV show host?不对啊，我记得她本职不是节目主持人么？
LamYes, but her job isn't important. Her sensitivity to numbers, her coolness, and her rationality all left a deep impression on me.是，但职业不重要。她对数字的敏感，冷静以及理性的选择让人印象深刻。
LamSpeaking from a professional standpoint, I can safely say that Yelena's skills are at least on par with a professional financial services Doll, according to the experience of working with her in real life.从现实中与她的合作经历来看，就专业性而言，叶莲娜的能力不亚于专职金融行业的人形。
I flip through the report and note that every item is thoroughly annotated, with plenty of reference materials, hypothetical scenarios, and solutions attached.翻动了一下报告书，每一个项目总结后面都附带了详细的备注、参考内容，以及多种假设方案和应对手段。
ProfessorNo wonder you ran over to Persicaria to headhunt her the moment her name entered the new arrivals list for the Oasis.难怪，我说怎么她的名字进入绿洲更新人员名单你就火急火燎地跑去找帕斯卡要人。
ProfessorShe thought our financial comptroller was ditching her responsibilities and looking for a producer so she could become an idol singer.她还以为我们的经济大总管撂担子不干了，想找主持人转行当偶像。
Lam...If you delay the budgetary allotment for this month any further, I might actually consider a career change.……这个月的批额如果再有拖延，或许我真的要考虑一下转行了。
ProfessorAhem... Like I was saying, thanks for your hard work. Is there anything else you'd like to report?咳……我就这么一说，辛苦你了。还有别的什么信息要汇报吗？
LamYelena's having her neural examination today, and we've got a new arrival at the Oasis.今天是叶莲娜心智检定的日子，以及绿洲来了一位新人形。
ProfessorOh, a neural exam. Sure, let's go. Take the day off.噢，心智检定是吧。行，去吧，给假。
BANG!砰！
WillowProfessor... (pants heavily) Pro... Professor...教授……呼呼……教、教授……
Willow bursts through the Ops Room door and rushes up to me.薇洛儿暴力地推开了指挥部的大门，冲到了我的面前。
ProfessorEr... What's going on...呃……你这是怎么了……
WillowYelena... Yelena!叶莲娜……叶莲娜她！
LamYelena? What's the matter? Did something happen to her?叶莲娜？她怎么了？发生了什么事儿？
WillowI heard it all. You were talking about Yelena's neural exam, right? I want to go too! I want to interview her!我都听到了，你们在说叶莲娜心智检定的事情对吧，我也要去！我要采访她！
WillowHehe, I smelled a scoop when I saw her just now. After looking into her, it was just as I expected!哼哼，之前看到她的时候我就嗅到新闻的味道了，后面一查果不其然！
ProfessorWhat did you find... Isn't she a TV show host?你查到了啥……她不就是一个电视主持人吗？
WillowShe isn't JUST a show host. She's the pillar that singlehandedly held up the hit TV series "The Voice of Destiny"!她可不只是普通的主持人，作为一手捧起大热节目《占卜之声》的功臣。
WillowYelena was supposed to take the show to the next level, but then she gave up on her fortune-telling and even her host job before fading from public view and switching over to the finance sector.叶莲娜本该领着节目走入更高的舞台，却又在后来放弃占卜，甚至放弃主持，隐于幕后，转行金融。
WillowHaven't you thought about how interesting her CV must be and how many stories it must contain?!你难道不觉得这个人形的经历很有趣，里面藏着很多故事吗？！
WillowDon't you want to know what she's experienced and been through to become what she is today?你难道就不想知道，她都经历了什么，发生了什么，才变成今天这个样子的吗？
ProfessorCalm down and get a drink of water... no need to get so worked up. You're practically shoving your microphone in my face.停一下，你喝口水缓缓……别这么激动，话筒都要怼我脸上了。
ProfessorPlus, I'm not the one to look for if you want to ask for Yelena's time. You'll need to ask this lady over here.想占用叶莲娜的时间可别找我，你得问旁边这位。
LamI'm sorry, Willow, I'm very busy and Yelena has no time for interviews...抱歉，薇洛儿，我这边很忙，叶莲娜没空接受采访……
WillowUrgh, can you bear to watch as my burning journalist's soul is extinguished?呜，你总不能看着我燃烧起来的记者之魂就这么熄灭吧？
WillowIt's very inhumane to put a cake in front of someone and forbid them from eating it, you know!把蛋糕放到跟前却不准吃很不人道的你知道吗！
LamEven if you say that...就算你这么说……
WillowLam, you'll help me, won't you?拉姆，你会帮我的对不对。
LamYou...你……
WillowAwwwwww, Laaaaaaammmm~!哎呀，拉——姆~！
WillowI'll pay for the next news group event myself!下一轮新闻组活动我自费报销！
LamI'll go ask her once her neural exam is done.等她心智检定结束，我去问问她的想法。
WillowYEEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!好嘞！！！
WillowGogogo, let's go!走走走，我们走。
At the Finance Department.财务部门。
YelenaYou could try advancing these two projects at the Engineering Department simultaneously. If you can manage them together, you can reduce the production expenses by one to two grades.工程局这两个项目内容可以合并推进，管理并行的话，产生的耗费可以减少一到两个标准级。
工作智能体You're right... But that would be pretty tricky, and the Engineering Department might not agree. We'll probably have to discuss it with Persicaria.确实欸……不过这个合并推进不好搞，工程局那边未必会同意，我们可能得和帕斯卡讨论一下。
YelenaThe tricky bit lies in the management and realization of the projects. These are the contingency plans; you can use them during your discussion.不好处理的关键在于管理并行实现困难，这些是预设方案，你讨论的时候可以用上。
工作智能体Ohhhhh! Well done, you really do think of everything. It should be a piece of cake now.哦哦！不愧是你，真周到。有这个应该就没问题了。
YelenaHehe, thank you. Do you have any other questions?呵呵，谢谢，还有什么其他要问的吗？
工作智能体Not for work, but I'd like to ask where you bought all those cute little thingies on your desk. They look great.工作上没有啦，就是想问下你桌子上的这些摆件哪里买的，好漂亮。
The agent picks up the paperwork Yelena hands them and studies the assorted items on her desk.智能体收起叶莲娜递来的纸质文件，好奇地看向她桌面上零零碎碎的物件。
YelenaThose aren't decorations; they're fortune-telling tools.这些不是装饰品，它们是占卜工具。
工作智能体Fortune-telling? You know how to do that too? Wow, you're amazing.占卜？你还懂这个，厉害的。
YelenaOh no, fortune-telling is just... It's just a kind of... Um...没有，占卜只是……占卜只是一种……嗯……
Yelena touches one of her pendants and glosses over the subject.叶莲娜顺势碰了碰其中一个坠饰，岔过话题。
YelenaFor instance, you can use this to predict your luck today.比如它，可以用来简单预测一下今日的运势。
工作智能体Oh, then, is today going to be a lucky one?噢，那现在这个样子运势是好是坏啊？
YelenaToday's luck, hm...今天的运势啊……
Yelena glances at the notification that just popped up in the corner of her vision.叶莲娜扫了眼角落弹出来的提示。
系统[The Medical Department wishes to remind you that your neural exam is about to begin.]【医疗部门真诚提醒您，心智检定即将开始。】
YelenaIt might be a little troublesome.或许会有一些小麻烦也说不定。

Read this chapter with voices →经纪人(Sigh)唉……
As she watches Yelena emerge from the electronic Doll neural cloud baseline calibration capsule, her manager rubs her temples.看着叶莲娜从人形心智基准校对专用的电子舱中走来，经纪人揉了揉太阳穴。
Yelena...I'm sorry.……抱歉。
经纪人You shouldn't be saying that to me, but to HQ and the show crew. (Sigh) This is troublesome.你这句话不该跟我说，你得和总部还有节目组说。唉，这下麻烦了。
经纪人I don't get it. Aren't these tests usually a walk in the park for you? You've got so much experience hosting shows; why couldn't you just fake it today?我不理解，这类测试不一般都是走个过场吗？你主持节目的经验这么丰富，怎么今天连装个样子都不会？
Yelena...I'm very sorry.……真的很抱歉。
经纪人Never mind, just forget about that test stuff. We need to go attend the rehearsal. The director's been waiting for a long time.行吧，把测试的事情放一放，我们先去彩排，导演已经等很久了。
YelenaAh, this might not be the best time to ask, but why did the crew decide to make a change like this all of a sudden?那个，虽然这么问不太合适，但我还是想知道，为什么节目组要突然做出这样的改动？
YelenaDidn't they used to have Mr. Nostradamus as the fortune-teller before this?之前的占卜师不一直都是诺特雷达姆先生负责的吗？
经纪人That's due to a lot of considerations, and we'd be here all day if I wanted to go into detail. Not that I'd mind, but the director would.考量很多，细说的话我还得给你拉个案子。我乐意，但导演那边肯定等不了。
经纪人Simply put, we want to elevate you, package you as a fortune-teller, and make you a star. You'd definitely get a bigger audience that way than just hosting a fortune-telling show.简单来说，就是我们想单独把你捧起来。包装成占卜师，走明星路线，受众肯定比占卜节目主持人更广。
经纪人Besides, you've already been programmed with professional fortune-telling information. As it happens, Mr. Nostradamus was sick today, and we thought it was a great chance, but who would have thought...再说你本身的设计就拥有占卜相关的专业知识，恰逢诺特雷达姆生病，我们都认为这是一个很好的契机，谁想到……
YelenaThat I'd mess it up? I'm sorry.是我没做好，对不起。
经纪人Well, you can't say that. We'll just have to face this problem together.也不能这么说，有问题一起面对。
经纪人In any case, let's go for rehearsal. Who knows, you might end up solving the issue that way.总之我们先去彩排吧，说不定有些东西排着排着就解决了。
YelenaAlright.好的。
YelenaHello, Director. I hope we'll do well today.导演，您好。今天也请多指教。
导演Relax. You just have to do what you always do. I heard all about it from your manager.放轻松，跟以前一样就好，我都听经纪人说了。
导演Although I don't know what's going on with that program of yours or whatever logic problems you're having, it doesn't seem like a big deal to me. Just take a look at the script for now.虽然我不是很懂你们那个程序啊，逻辑啊啥的问题，不过在我看来都大差不差。先看看台本吧。
The director hands a booklet to Yelena.导演将一份文件交给了叶莲娜。
导演Since you'll be rehearsing as the fortune-teller for the first time today, the question now is the segment when we pick a viewer letter to answer.今天算是你第一次以占卜师的身份进行的彩排，问题呢，也是我们从这段时间的观众来信中挑选的。
导演The key here is in swapping roles. Do you understand?重点在于身份上的一个切换，能理解？
YelenaConnected to the database. I'm ready.数据库已连接，我准备好了。
导演Alright, everyone, get in position.好，全员各就各位。
导演3... 2... 1... Action!3……2……1……开始！
YelenaHello, and welcome to another episode of "The Voice of Destiny". I'm your host... I mean, your fortune-teller Yelena.大家好，欢迎收看本次《占卜之声》，我是占卜主……占卜家叶莲娜。
YelenaHehe, were you surprised by the role change? Although saying this now might be a little late, I'll be taking over the fortune-telling segment of "The Voice of Destiny" from today onward!呵呵，是不是很惊喜我的身份变化呢？虽然现在才讲有些迟了，不过从今天起，我将负责《占卜之声》的占卜环节！
经纪人How was that?效果怎么样？
导演Hmm, it was pretty good. She's as effective on camera as she always is, just that...嗯，挺好的，镜头表现力一如既往的OK，只是……
YelenaNow, we'd like to invite our first member of the audience...那么首先我们要邀请第一位观众……
Before Yelena can finish, the director calls a halt to Yelena's act.还没有等叶莲娜说完，导演就停止了叶莲娜的内容。
导演Stop. Yelena, remember your role. You're the fortune-teller, not the host.停，叶莲娜，注意你现在的身份，你是占卜家，不是主持人。
YelenaYes? Didn't I say that?是的？我是这么说明的？
导演There's nothing wrong with your lines. The problem is with your delivery. The host is showy and outgoing, extroverted and passionate.台本本身没有问题，问题是气质，主持人是落落大方的，热情外向的。
导演Fortune-tellers are different. They ought to be more withdrawn and mysterious. It's a performance, do you understand? You need to portray that mysteriousness.占卜家不同，占卜家的形象应该更内敛一些，神秘一些。表演，能明白吗？演出那种神秘的感觉。
导演Think back to all the guest stars you had when you were hosting the program. What kind of feel did they have?回忆一下之前你主持节目的时候遇到的那些嘉宾，他们给人是一种什么样的感觉？
Yelena...I'll try my best.……我尝试理解一下。
导演OK, back to one. Go again.OK我们重来一遍，摄影师准备。
YelenaWelcome to the world of fortune-telling. I'm Yelena...欢迎来到占卜的世界，我是叶莲娜……
YelenaPerhaps you might have your doubts about me. After all, I should be holding a microphone and standing in front of a camera...或许你会有些疑惑，我本该拿着话筒，站在镜头前……
导演Go to the next segment. Bring the guest on stage.下个环节，嘉宾上台。
The director nods and gestures behind him.导演点了点头，朝身后打了个手势。
演员Hi, Miss Yelena, I'm a big fan of your show.叶莲娜小姐，你好。我一直有收看你的节目。
YelenaThank you for your support. It's what drives us to continue creating...非常感谢您一直以来的支持，您的支持就是我们节目继续创作的动力……
导演Ahem!咳！
YelenaAh, sorry, sorry, we're very happy that you like it. Destiny is always willing to grace those who understand it.啊抱歉抱歉，很高兴你的喜欢，命运愿意亲近所有理解它的人。
演员I have a few questions I'd like to ask, Miss Yelena. I was hoping you could help me do a reading.那个我有一些事情想要请教叶莲娜小姐。希望叶莲娜小姐能够为我占卜一下。
YelenaNo problem, it's part of my job. What would you like to know about? Your career, your love life, or maybe about the things around you, perhaps?没有问题，这是我的工作的一部分，请问你是想要什么占卜呢，是事业，爱情，还是针对周围的环境。
The director scratches his head in frustration.导演烦躁地挠了挠头。
导演Go sort out your vocabulary. I don't want to see you portraying a fortune-teller while acting like a host.重新整理一下你的语料库，我不希望再看到你用主持人的姿态去演绎占卜家。
导演Also, it isn't just your lines; you need to coordinate your movements with them.另外不只是台词，你要配合你的动作。
导演When you were a host, your weapon was your mike. You're a fortune-teller now, so your weapon is what you use to tell fortunes. What is it?主持人的武器是话筒，现在你是占卜家，你的武器就是占卜工具，你的武器呢？
Yelena stares blankly for a bit before she comes to her senses and picks up the tarot cards beside her. These stage items ought to be intimately familiar to her, yet they seem so alien at this moment.叶莲娜有些迟滞地拿起手边的塔罗牌，往日无比熟悉的节目道具此刻在她的眼里是那么的陌生。
导演Right, that's more like it. Keep going.对，就是这样，我们继续。
演员I'm working in a domestic services company, but I haven't gotten any suitable jobs recently... So I wanted to ask about my career...我在一家家政公司进行工作，但是近期却接不到什么合适的家政工作……所以我想问问关于我的事业……
YelenaI see...我明白了……
Yelena takes out her tarot cards and skillfully draws one.叶莲娜拿出了塔罗牌，巧妙地将一张塔罗牌抽到了自己的手中。
YelenaIndeed, the domestic services industry is facing quite a few difficulties right now. The biggest reason is the advent of domestic maid Dolls. From my information, I can deduce that maid Dolls are three times more efficient than humans.家政行业这一段时间确实面临很多问题，其中最大的原因是家政服务人形的出现。根据数据可以测算出，家政服务人形有着人类三倍以上的效率。
演员Er...呃……
YelenaTherefore, I would conclude that, given the current market environment, the traditional domestic services industry is no longer tenable. However, due to the basic principles of the domestic services industry... it would be better to reorient one's strategy rather than abandon the market entirely.所以根据我的推测，在当前环境下，传统家政服务业已经不适合了。但是鉴于，家政服务业的基础素质……与其放弃家政服务不如改变策略。
YelenaLowering costs...降低佣金……
导演CUT!!!!!CUT！！！！！
The director practically jumps out of his chair.导演几乎要从椅子上跳起来。
导演Yelena, do you even know what you were saying just now?叶莲娜，你好好想想你刚刚都说了什么？
导演Are you rattling off answers to an exam? You're a DOLL. Why are you talking like a primitive AI by citing data and conclusions?你是测试用的系统问答机吗？你是人形啊。你怎么回答问题跟个低级AI一样，上数据上结论啊？
导演Weren't you much better at commanding the scene in the past when you were hosting the show?你以前在主持节目的时候不是很会……很会控场的吗？
YelenaI...我……
YelenaI just don't understand. Isn't this what fortune-telling should be?我只是有些搞不明白，占卜它，不应该是这样？
导演What part don't you understand?哪里不明白？
导演Why don't you tell me what fortune-telling is to you?那你说，占卜是什么？
YelenaIt is an occult activity employing so-called supernatural or numerical computational methods to prognosticate the future or investigate phenomena. It is an important part of human culture.是借由所谓超自然或以术数运算方法来推测未来或探究事物的神秘学活动，是人类文化重要的一部分。
导演...Are you kidding me? Dumb it down a little.……什么玩意？简单点。
YelenaGiving answers, solving problems.给出答案，解决问题。
经纪人Why don't we... call it a day for now?要不……今天就到这里？
导演Pack it up, pack it up.收工收工。
导演As for you... Go take Yelena back and have her learn or download information about fortune-telling or whatever. We'll try again tomorrow.你……把叶莲娜带回去学习还是传输什么的，反正让她弄一下占卜的资料，我们明天再来一回。
Rehearsal: Rationalist – 3 彩排：理性者-3
Read this chapter with voices →In the break room, Yelena goes through a huge pile of fan mail by herself.休息室中，叶莲娜独自一人处理着大量的粉丝来信。
...At first, I thought a Doll would have a lot of problems hosting "The Voice of Destiny", but you've managed to carry on the previous host's style very well, and I can tell you're well versed in occult knowledge. I'll keep on supporting you.……本来我以为人形接替《占卜之声》的主持会有很多问题，但是你很好的继承了前任主持人的风格，并且可以看出来你对神秘学内容的了解。我会继续支持你们的。
YelenaThank you for your support. It's what drives us to continue creating. All the best, Yelena.非常感谢您的支持，您的支持是我们创作的动力。祝您一切顺利，叶莲娜。
Yelena seals the letter and neatly places it in a box before moving on.叶莲娜将回信封装好，整齐地摆放在箱子中，又拿起了一封信。
Having a Doll host a fortune-telling show? What are you thinking? Do Dolls even understand fortune-telling?让人形去占卜节目做主持？你们怎么想的？人形懂占卜吗？
YelenaWhy does everything revolve around fortune-telling? When you get down to it... What IS fortune-telling, anyway?为什么话题都是围绕着占卜进行？占卜到底……是什么？
Yelena looks up at the bookshelf in the break room. It is stuffed full of occult books.叶莲娜抬头看着休息区的书架上那塞得满满的神秘学相关的书籍。
Ever since she was awakened, Yelena had been told to familiarize herself with their contents.自从被唤醒以来，叶莲娜就一直被要求熟读这些书籍。
For a Doll, memorizing that massive amount of information was not an issue. In fact, she found some of the material regarding human cultural and scientific development to be quite interesting.对于人形来说，记录这些海量的书籍本身不是一件难事。其中一些人类的文化和科学发展相关的内容也让叶莲娜十分感兴趣。
YelenaThe process of fortune-telling is the bridge between the diviner and the client...占卜的过程是占卜师和被占卜的人的桥梁……
YelenaBut what difference is there between this and just giving them the answer?但是这和给出答案有什么区别吗？
Yelena shakes her head and puts the book she's holding back into the shelf.叶莲娜摇了摇头，将书原封不动的塞回了书架。
YelenaIf I could figure it out just by sitting here and thinking, I would have passed that exam long ago.如果只是坐在这里思考就能明白的话，测试我应该已经通过了。
Yelena sighs and picks up a new letter.叶莲娜叹了一口气拿起了一封新的信件。
YelenaHm... This handwriting?咦……这个笔迹是？
Hi, Big Sis Yelena! I'm Astra!叶莲娜姐姐，您好！我是阿斯特拉！
YelenaI knew it... It's that kid after all.果然……是那个孩子啊。
Thanks for replying to me, I showed your letter to my friends, and they were all jelly of me. I'd like to watch your show live. Will you be coming to our town to do your show, Big Sis Yelena? Papa and Mama always say that we live near an irradiated area, and the roads here are a mess, so there's no way you'd do a show there. What does that mean? I don't get it. I'd still like to watch your show live, though, Big Sis Yelena.谢谢你的回复，我把信拿给朋友们看，朋友们都很羡慕。
Thanks for replying to me, I showed your letter to my friends, and they were all jelly of me. I'd like to watch your show live. Will you be coming to our town to do your show, Big Sis Yelena? Papa and Mama always say that we live near an irradiated area, and the roads here are a mess, so there's no way you'd do a show there. What does that mean? I don't get it. I'd still like to watch your show live, though, Big Sis Yelena.我好希望在现场看叶莲娜姐姐的节目，叶莲娜姐姐会来我们这里占卜吗？
Thanks for replying to me, I showed your letter to my friends, and they were all jelly of me. I'd like to watch your show live. Will you be coming to our town to do your show, Big Sis Yelena? Papa and Mama always say that we live near an irradiated area, and the roads here are a mess, so there's no way you'd do a show there. What does that mean? I don't get it. I'd still like to watch your show live, though, Big Sis Yelena.爸爸妈妈总是说我们住的区域靠近有辐射的区域，而且还道路交通也是半荒废的状态，是没有可能有机会和这种节目接触的。这是什么意思，我不太理解。
Thanks for replying to me, I showed your letter to my friends, and they were all jelly of me. I'd like to watch your show live. Will you be coming to our town to do your show, Big Sis Yelena? Papa and Mama always say that we live near an irradiated area, and the roads here are a mess, so there's no way you'd do a show there. What does that mean? I don't get it. I'd still like to watch your show live, though, Big Sis Yelena.但是我真的好想去现场看看叶莲娜姐姐的节目。
Yelena(Sigh) Oh, you silly boy... Why does he like this show so much, anyway?唉……傻孩子，也不知道为什么他这么喜欢这个节目……
Yelena looks at the other letters in her drawer, written in the same childish handwriting, and shakes her head in resignation.叶莲娜看着抽屉里那几封同样用稚嫩的笔迹写下的信件，有些无奈地摇摇头。
YelenaThat area really is too close to the border...这个区域……确实太靠近边界线了……
YelenaIf we went out of our way to do an outdoor shoot... we may not even be able to get the film truck over there.如果专门去这个区域出外景拍摄……可能连演播车都过不去。
YelenaBut if we went about it another way, and brought that kid here instead... I wonder if it would be okay...但是如果换一个思路让这个孩子来这里的话……是不是可以……
Yelena picks up the letter and heads out to the backstage area.叶莲娜拿起了手中的信，走向了后台。
As she reaches the door, the faint sound of voices comes from within the room and stops Yelena just as she's about to knock.抵达房门外，茫昧的声音传出，正准备敲门的叶莲娜停下了动作。
导演The people up top are pushing us to finish our preparations. The official filming is going to start soon, and we still need to discuss her problems.上面已经在催节目的进度了，很快就是正式录制，她的问题我们还是得讲讲。
Yelena(Are they... talking about me?)（他们……是在讨论我的事情吗？）
经纪人I'm very sorry for the trouble Yelena has caused the crew.非常抱歉，叶莲娜给节目组添麻烦了。
导演Well, it's not like we could do the show without Yelena, either. We've all seen how viewership numbers for "The Voice of Destiny" has soared ever since she started hosting it.也不能这么说，没有叶莲娜我们的节目也做不起来。自从她开始主持，《占卜之声》收视率的爬升大家有目共睹。
导演It's just, what the hell is with her and fortune-telling? Can't you get a technician to just install fortune-telling information and tricks into her or something?只是她的这个，这个占卜究竟是个什么情况？就不能说找个工作人员直接把占卜的技巧啊，认知啊什么的录入进去么？
Yelena(But I CAN tell fortunes! I just... I just...)（我会占卜！我只是……只是……）
Yelena clenches her fists as an indescribable sense of dread gnaws at her heart.叶莲娜攥紧拳头，莫名的违和在不断噬咬她的情绪。
经纪人The truth is, Yelena already has this knowledge. She was designed as a combined TV show host and fortune-teller.其实叶莲娜本身就拥有这些知识，她在企划之初就是以主持人兼占卜师为目的进行设计的。
经纪人But I don't know why she can't work normally. It seems Yelena just can't meet the show's requirements.但我也不知道为什么她没有办法正常的工作，叶莲娜似乎无法接受节目里附带的那些要求。
导演What requirements?哪些要求？
经纪人The requirements were noted in the script on how a fortune-teller needs to speak and act. Yelena feels they're nothing more than charlatanry, and she doesn't understand their value or meaning.台本上备注的，占卜时必要的动作和台词，叶莲娜觉得那些东西是故弄玄虚，而且不理解它的价值和意义。
导演She doesn't understand them... Well, if she doesn't understand them, then so be it. Frankly speaking, even I don't get it either. But all she has to do is play her role and give the audience what they want, just like when she's being a host.不理解……不理解就不理解呗，老实说我也不理解。可她演就好了，就像当主持人的时候一样，观众需要什么，她就给什么。
Yelena(It's not the same!)（这不一样！）
Yelena's neural cloud begins replaying images of the past, and the cognitive displacement indicates that she should stop thinking about this.叶莲娜的心智开始复播过往的影像，认知上的错位在提醒她该中止某些思考。
Yelena(The aim of fortune-telling is to solve problems for people who are lost and confused, but you want me to evade the question and never give them a direct answer until the very end, only hinting at the truth...)（占卜的目的是要给予迷茫的人解答，可你们却要我顾左右而言他，而且到了最后都不能说明答案，只能暗示……）
经纪人I told her that before, but... (Sigh) I'll try to speak to her again.我之前也是这么对她说的，可是……唉，我再劝劝吧。
导演It must be hard on you too.哈，辛苦你了。
导演Once you start getting logic errors, no amount of explaining will help.程序逻辑之类的东西一旦出错，好说歹说也没用。
导演In any case, just work as fast as you can. The whole point of bringing Dolls aboard was to cut down on filming time and costs. Even if Yelena's contributed a lot, we can't keep accommodating her like this.总之能快尽量快点吧，节目引进人形的初衷是缩减拍摄成本和时间，就算叶莲娜有功，我们也不可能一直这样纵容。
经纪人I understand your concerns, director, and I've actually spoken to HQ about this. If Yelena still can't handle the job, Cyber Media is willing to offer a product return...我明白导演您的顾虑，其实我们这边也和总部沟通了，如果叶莲娜接下来还不能胜任这份工作，赛博传媒可以提供退货服务……
Yelena(Product... product return?!)（退……退货？！）
Yelena freezes upon hearing those words. She briefly loses control of her body, and her head knocks lightly against the door.这个词汇一下让叶莲娜怔住了，短暂失去了对身体的控制，轻磕在了门板上。
导演Hm? Who's that?嗯？谁啊？
YelenaEr... It... It's me, Yelena.呃……是……是我，叶莲娜。
导演Is something the matter, Yelena?有什么事吗？叶莲娜？
YelenaI...我……
Yelena pauses and takes a breath.叶莲娜顿了顿，吸了一口气。
YelenaOne of our younger fans has been watching our program and would like to watch our show live.有一位小粉丝一直关注我们的节目，并且非常想要在现场观看我们的节目。
YelenaSince he's sent in a lot of letters to the show crew in the past, I was wondering if... we could send him a ticket to the film studio?因为他已经多次给节目组寄信，所以我想问问，能不能……给他寄一张下一次录制的入场券？
Yelena hands the director the fan letter.叶莲娜将小粉丝的来信递给了导演，导演接过信。
导演Ah... So that's what it is. And his address shows that he's right up on the edge of the Yellow Zone... Yeah, after considering the safety of the film crew while shooting and minimizing exposure to radiation... It's true that we don't have much contact with the audience in that area.啊……是这个事情啊。这个地址好像是在边界上已经靠近黄区了吧……确实，一直以来考虑到节目录制的安全性和降低感染的风险……我们很少和这一个片区的观众接触。
导演I'll arrange front-row seats for him and his family in the upcoming show three days later. Tell that kid about this and give him a way to contact us. I'll send my name card over too.我会安排在三天后的观众席上给他和他的家人留一个前排的位置，叶莲娜你把这件事写信告诉这个孩子吧，顺便给他留个联系方式，我也把我的名片给他吧。
The director takes out his name card and writes a note below.导演拿出了自己的名片，在上面写下了备注。
Yelena...Alright. Thank you.……好的，谢谢您。
导演Is there anything else?还有什么事吗？
YelenaI...我……
Yelena looks at the director and her manager and then shakes her head.叶莲娜看了看经纪人和导演，摇了摇头。
YelenaNo, that's all. I'll reply to the kid now.不，就这一件事情。那我先去给这个孩子回信了。
Yelena bows deeply to them and leaves the room.叶莲娜深深地鞠了一躬，离开了房间。

经纪人Yelena, are you in there? I'm coming in, okay?叶莲娜，你在吗？我进来了？
经纪人Yelena?叶莲娜？
YelenaHuh? Ah... Sorry, I didn't notice you.啊？啊……抱歉，我没注意到你进来了。
The manager looks at Yelena, who seems to be in a daze, and sighs.经纪人看着恍神的叶莲娜，无奈地叹了口气。
经纪人Writing that letter to your fan?在给粉丝写回信？
YelenaYeah... This envelope is for him. I've put the director's name card and my tarot card inside already.嗯……这封是给那个小观众的，导演的名片和我的塔罗牌都封装好了。
经纪人Don't worry. As long as he have the director's name card, the staff members will guide him to the set when he arrives.放心好了，有导演的名片，开播的时候工作人员会引导他去片场的。
YelenaMm... Yes, I'm glad for that.嗯……嗯，我很放心。
经纪人(Sigh) Honestly, are you worried about that system test thing? The director and I have arranged things with the company.唉，你啊，是在担心系统测试的事情吗？我和导演跟公司都沟通好了。
经纪人We'll push the review back until after the show's done. Don't worry, we're not asking you to quit the cast right now.复核测试推到这次节目完成后再进行，别担心，不是要你现在就退出节目组。
Yelena lifts her head and looks at the manager, but her mind is still dwelling on what she heard yesterday.叶莲娜抬起头，看着经纪人，脑海中却不由自主地浮现昨日听见的话语。
经纪人I understand your concerns, director, and I've actually spoken to HQ about this. If Yelena still can't handle the job, Cyber Media is willing to offer a product return...我明白导演您的顾虑，其实我们这边也和总部沟通了，如果叶莲娜接下来还不能胜任这份工作，赛博传媒可以提供退货服务……
YelenaI hate it... I hate this uncertain, unsteady feeling, like I've lost control.真讨厌啊……这种未来摇摇欲坠，不受控制的感觉。
经纪人Hm? Did you say something?嗯？你说什么？
YelenaNo, maybe I'm too tired or something.没，可能是太累了。
经纪人Then you should get some rest.那就休息吧。
YelenaHuh? But I haven't finished replying to these fan letters yet.欸？可是这些还没有写完。
经纪人Let me do it. I know you like replying to your fans in person, but there's nothing wrong with slacking off every now and then.我来吧，我知道你喜欢亲自给粉丝回信，不过，偶尔偷懒一回也没什么。
经纪人Go out and get some fresh air. Maybe it'll lift your spirits.出去走走，或许心情会好一点。
The manager takes out a pendulum-like object from their pocket and clumsily swings it around.经纪人从口袋中掏出一个吊坠样式的物件，笨拙地晃动着。
经纪人I'm not a pro like you, but I've consulted this little thing, and it says you'll have good luck today.虽然不如你专业，不过我问过它了，你今天的运气很好的。
YelenaHehe... Thank you.呵呵……谢谢你。
Yelena nods to her manager and waves before leaving the office.叶莲娜朝着经纪人点头，挥了挥手，离开了办公室。
Yelena(I guess I'll go take a walk somewhere.)（那就找个地方散散心吧。）
In a small bar near the film studio.节目组附近的小酒馆。
YelenaGlug... Glug, glug...咕噜……咕……
Yelena(Sigh) What on earth am I doing? I can't believe I decided to try getting drunk in order to feel lost and aimless enough to turn to fortune-telling like a human.唉……我到底在干啥啊，居然想通过饮酒来体验人类茫然无措，渴求占卜指引时的感觉。
YelenaI need to ask the logistics department to see what's wrong with my neural cloud...我得先请后勤帮忙看看我得心智还正不正常了……
Yelena puts down the glass in her hand and looks up at the old-style television in the corner of the bar as she strokes her chin.叶莲娜放下了手中的酒杯，托着下巴看着酒馆墙角挂着的老式电视。
Recently, a wandering fortune-teller Doll called Luna has sparked quite a bit of debate on the internet.近期，一位名叫月光的流浪占卜人形在互联网中引起了强烈讨论。
Yelena(Why is there fortune-telling stuff here too...)（怎么这里也有占卜……）
Sources say that this Doll is from Universal Anything Services, boasting high precision and the ability to foretell just about anything...据悉，这名人形是出自于环球万事服务之手，不仅拥有超高的准确率，而且任何事情都可以进行占卜……
Yelena(So this is UAS's fortune-teller... Hm...)（环球万事服务的占卜师……嗯……）
经理Lam... Do you think we should go find a fortune-teller to do a reading for us?拉姆……你说我们是不是也去找一下占卜师进行占卜比较好啊。
LamBoss, you need to relax.经理，你过于紧张了。
经理But... But we'll be taking over their plan next week.但……但是下一周就要和对方进行方案对接了啊。
经理And I... I don't have any confidence about it.我……心里没有底。
LamInstead of relying on something as insubstantial as that, I'd rather place my faith in the data that we computed.比起那种虚无缥缈的内容，我跟愿意相信我们计算出来的数据。
LamAs finance professionals, we ought to place our faith in data, not fortune-telling.作为金融行业的从业者，我们最应该相信的不是占卜，而是数据。
Yelena(The finance industry... and data?)（金融行业……数据？）
Yelena(System Command: Now searching for relevant information, keyword—finance.)（系统指令：正在检索相关信息，关键词——金融。）
Yelena obtains information related to the finance sector from her database.叶莲娜从数据库中调取了关于金融业的信息。
Yelena(I see, so most of the information here can be quantified... trade, trusts, accounting...)（原来如此，大部分的内容都可以用数据进行量化……贸易，信托，会计……）
Yelena(Hm... this sounds like an interesting career...)（呵……还真是一个有趣的行业……）
经理But you can't really say that, right? I mean, just look at the film and internet business. They even hire priests to burn incense and say prayers before starting operations.也不是这么说吧？你看隔壁影视行业还有互联网，他们开机前甚至要请大师开光烧香。
经理In that case, it makes perfect sense for us in finance to get a reading done before we make a deal, right?那我们搞金融的，做买卖前占卜一下，也很合理嘛。
经理Ahhhh, if only there were a fortune-teller here right now...啊啊啊，要是有占卜师突然出现就好了……
LamBoss, you're being too noisy and disturbing the other patrons.经理，动作太大了，影响到其他的客人了。
经理Ah, sorry, sorry...啊，抱歉，抱歉……
The manager suddenly stands up and bows to Yelena while apologizing profusely.经理急忙站起身，冲着叶莲娜鞠躬道歉。
经理Hm? Wait a minute... You... You're... You're Yelena from "The Voice of Destiny"!诶？等等……你……你是……《占卜之声》的叶莲娜。
YelenaHello.你好。
经理Lam, Lam, a fortune-teller really DID show up! Could this be a sign?拉姆，拉姆，真的出现占卜师了，这是预兆吧？
LamI think it's just a coincidence...我觉得这只是偶然……
YelenaEr, well, I'm actually more of a host than a fortune-teller...呃，其实比起占卜师我更偏向主持人一点……
YelenaStill, if you don't mind, I'd be happy to help do a reading for you.不过，如你们不嫌弃的话，我也很乐意帮你们占卜一下。
经理Ah! Really?啊！真的可以吗?
The manager looks eagerly toward Lam.经理一脸期待地看向了拉姆。
LamYou're in charge of this deal. As long as you don't reveal any classified information, I have no objections.这一次的交易你是负责人，只要别透露密级消息，我没有意见。
经理Ah... Er... Right, we'll be going overseas next week to do some... some... Er, Lam, exactly how much can I tell her?那个……那个……对，我们下周要去国外进行一些……一些……呃，拉姆，具体能说到哪步？
Lam...We'll be going overseas next week for business. It's related to metals.……我们下周要出国进行商业活动，和金属有关。
经理Right, right, right, Lam and I already drafted up a plan, but I still feel uneasy about it.对对对，虽然我和拉姆已经制定好了方案，但是总觉得有些心神不宁。
经理We've gone over it many times, but I'm still a little worried...其实方案已经检查确认很多遍了，但是还是有些担心……
Yelena(System Command: Now searching for relevant information—keywords, Lam, financial industry Doll, international trade, metal import/export.)（系统指令：正在检索相关信息，关键词——拉姆，金融从业人形，跨国贸易，金属进出口）
YelenaIs it a silicon deal in Iceland?冰岛，金属硅？
LamHm?嗯？
Lam glances at Yelena, a guarded look in her eyes.拉姆有些警觉的看了叶莲娜一眼。
YelenaRelax, I'm not an industrial spy. I simply did a search of the publicly-available information on the internet and stated a likely possibility.不要紧张，我并不是商业间谍，我只是根据互联网公开的消息进行检索处理，关联出了有可能的目的而已。
LamEven so, your search results were too... precise...就算这样，你的检索结果未免也太精……准了……
And then it hits her.拉姆突然反应了过来。
LamYou used my name?我的名字？
YelenaYes. I started with your job and your company. That information was public.是的，检索的基准是你的职业和所属公司，这部分信息似乎是公开的。
LamBoss, you'd better go back and write a reflection essay.经理你等着回去写检讨吧。
经理Aaaaaaaargh, at least allow me one last thing. Miss Yelena, what does your fortune-telling say about the outcome?呃啊啊啊啊，至少让我死得甘心吧，叶莲娜小姐，占卜的结果是好是坏啊？
YelenaAs someone with no relevant experience, I would not dare reach conclusions about the finance industry recklessly. After all, this does involve trade secrets.详细到金融行业的操作，没有相关经验的我不敢妄下结论，毕竟也涉及到了你们的商业机密。
YelenaBut from the information I've found, I believe your endeavor will be a success.不过以我检索到的信息来看，你们的企划应该会顺利。
经理Ohhhhhh! This is great!噢噢噢噢！太好了！
LamHehe, this isn't just fortune-telling anymore. Thank you very much.呵呵，这已经不算是占卜了吧。非常感谢。
YelenaIn my base layer logic, giving answers and solving problems is fortune-telling.在我的底层逻辑中，给出答案，解决问题，就是占卜。
YelenaBut I believe you've already considered the questions I mentioned, so nothing of what I said should have been of any real help... So why does she seem so excited to hear it?不过我提出的问题你们应该已经考虑过了，我所说的内容应该无法为你们带肋实质性的帮助吧……为什么她听完还那么激动？
LamYes, we have considered these problems before. But my manager's been worried about whether she messed something up. After all, this transaction does involve some degree of risk.虽然这些问题我们已经验证过了。但是经理她一直担忧自己有没有疏漏，毕竟这一次确实有一定的风险。
LamPerhaps that is why she sought the help of a fortune-teller.或许正因为如此她才会寻求于占卜的帮助吧。
Saying so, Lam takes a name card out of her pocket.说着，拉姆从包里抽出名片。
YelenaAh, thank you. But I know who you are, though?呃，谢谢，不过我知道你的身份？
LamThink of it as making a friend. For some reason, you feel more like someone in my line of work than a TV host or a fortune-teller.就当交个朋友，总觉得在气质上，比起占卜师和主持人，你更像是我的同行。
LamHave you considered a change of surroundings, perhaps?不知道你有没有考虑过换个环境？
YelenaI... I haven't thought about that for the time being, but thank you.我……暂时还没有这方面的想法，不过谢谢。
LamThat's alright. There will always be a chance for that. Since you helped calm my manager down, let us foot the bill for you.没关系，总有机会的，看在你安抚了我们经理的份上，这一餐还请让我们来买单。
With that, Lam pokes her still-excited manager.说着，拉姆戳了戳还在兴奋的经理。
LamGet your notebook out and see if we can max out our claims limit for today with this meal.把记录本拿出来，算上这顿应该刚好能把今天的报销额度用完。

Read this chapter with voices →保安Good morning, Miss Yelena. Looks like another day of filming. Thanks for your hard work. Is there anything I can help you with?早上好，叶莲娜小姐。今天又是拍摄日，辛苦了，您有什么事情吗？
YelenaGood morning. I'd like to ask, did you see our guest today?早上好。我想来问一下，今天有看到嘉宾来访吗？
YelenaAh, he should be a child. The crew gave him the director's name card and entry tickets too.啊，他应该是个小孩子，节目组专门给了导演的名片还有入场券。
保安We haven't encountered anyone like that yet. Perhaps he's still on the way? After all, it's still early.今天还没有看到这样的人，可能还在路上吧，毕竟时间还早。
Yelena takes out her terminal, somewhat in doubt of this, and happens to notice an unread message.叶莲娜有些疑惑地拿出了自己的终端，意外地看到了终端上有一条未读信息。
Big Sis Yelena, I'm sorry, but I got the time wrong and Papa and Mama are being a bit slow. We're heading over right now!叶莲娜姐姐，不好意思，我好像搞错了时间，爸爸妈妈的动作也有些慢，我们现在马上过来！
YelenaThis boy...这孩子……
Yelena checks the time at which the message was sent. It was 10 minutes ago.叶莲娜看了看信息发送的时间，是十分钟前。
YelenaI got a message from him. He says he's on his way, and judging by the time... Hm, he ought to be here in about half an hour.我收到了信息了，他已经出发了，根据时间来推测……嗯，应该半个小时左右就会抵达这里了吧。

YelenaThank you.麻烦你了。
As Yelena enters the building, she sends Astra a message.叶莲娜一边走进大楼，一边给阿斯特拉发出一条信息。
YelenaI'll be waiting for you on set. Just hand the tarot card to the uncle at the door... Hm?我会在片场等候你的，你只要把塔罗牌交给门口的叔叔即可……嗯？
Yelena sees someone unfamiliar standing in the corridor.在走廊之中叶莲娜看到了一个陌生的身影。
??Hm... Inspiration, I need inspiration... and that person just now wasn't quite right either.嗯……灵感，灵感……刚刚那个人也不太对。
A Doll who looks like a girl that Yelena doesn't know is standing in the middle of the hallway with a strange little mirror in hand, and she seems to be looking for something.一名陌生的少女外貌的人形，在走廊之中拿着一面古怪的小镜子似乎在寻找着什么。
Yelena(Could she be a new hire by the show crew? I think I've seen her from somewhere before, though...)（难道是节目组新请来的人形吗？不过这个外貌，总觉得有点印象……）
YelenaExcuse me...请问……
For politeness' sake, Yelena steps up to speak to the girl. However, the girl ends up waving her mirror in front of Yelena instead.出于礼貌，叶莲娜先一步上前想要和少女人形打招呼。但是少女却拿着镜子在叶莲娜面前一晃。
??Ah! So YOU were the one foretold by the signs!啊！原来预兆说的是你！
YelenaHuh? What do you mean?嗯？什么意思。
??According to my reading today, our relationship will undergo a huge change from today onward.根据我今天的占卜，从今天开始我们的关系会发生很大的变化。
YelenaYour reading... Are you the one from the news yesterday, the wandering fortune-teller Luna?占卜……你是昨天新闻里提到的那个流浪的占卜师月光？
With the help of that one word, Yelena soon connects the girl before her with the news article from yesterday.透过关键词，叶莲娜很快把眼前的少女人形和昨天的新闻对应起来。
LunaHuh? How did you know me? Do you tell fortunes too?咦？你是怎么知道我的？难道你也会占卜吗。
YelenaHmm... In any case, allow me to introduce myself. I am Yelena, the host of "The Voice of Destiny".呼……总之，先让我做一下自我介绍吧。我叫叶莲娜，是《占卜之声》的主持人。
LunaYelena... Yelena... Now where have I heard that name before...叶莲娜……叶莲娜……总觉得这个名字在哪里看过……
???LU—NAAAAAA—月——光——
Luna shudders as she hears the somewhat angry voice.一声带有一丝愤怒的声音让月光一颤。
LunaHuh? That's... Manager? What's wrong?诶？那个……经纪人……怎么了嘛？
Luna turns around a little stiffly and sees her clearly displeased manager standing behind her.月光有些僵硬地转过身，看到了满脸写着不满的经纪人，站在了自己的身后。
经纪人What's wrong, you ask? I told you to wait for me in the break room, but when I came back you were gone!你说怎么了？我让你在休息室里等我，结果等我回到休息室里你人影都没了！
经纪人I ran all over the place looking for you, and then I heard someone telling fortunes left, right, and center in the building...搞得我只好到处找你，结果就听到了有人在大楼里疯狂给人占卜……
LunaR-Relax, I was just looking for my foretold person! Anyway, I've found her, so I won't run around anymore.冷……冷静，我只是想找找我预兆中的那个人啊！我已经找到了，不会乱跑了。
经纪人Your foretold... huh? It's Yelena.预兆中的……咦？叶莲娜。
YelenaGood morning...早上好……
Upon seeing the chaos before her, Yelena can only shake her head helplessly.看着这个混乱的场面，叶莲娜有些无奈地摇了摇头。
经纪人So you've already met. That's great. Luna, have you told Yelena about what's going to happen after this?原来你们已经碰面了，这真是太好了。月光你有和叶莲娜说接下来的安排吗？
月光&叶莲娜Huh? After what?嗯？什么安排？
经纪人Yelena doesn't know because we haven't told her yet... But didn't I give you today's schedule before we left HQ this morning?叶莲娜不知道是因为我还没有通知她……但是月光，之前从总部出发的时候，我不是把今天的安排交给你了吗？
LunaHuh?嗯？
LunaAh... Ahhhhhhhh! I was wondering why the name Yelena sounded so familiar!啊……啊啊啊！我就说为什么觉得叶莲娜的名字这么熟悉！
经纪人Did you... not read the document I gave you?你是不是……完全没有看我交给你的文件？
LunaHaha... hahaha... Well, I'll just handle it with fortune-telling when the time comes.哈哈……哈哈哈……那个，到时候交给占卜就好啦。
经纪人(Groan) Well, at least Yelena is here, so I'll start from the beginning.唉……正好叶莲娜也在，我就口头说一下吧。
经纪人Yelena, this is Miss Luna. I think she's already introduced herself.叶莲娜，这一位是月光小姐，想必刚刚她已经和你介绍过自己了。
YelenaShe hasn't actually introduced herself, but we know each other.虽然她还没有正式做自我介绍，但是确实已经认识了。
The manager sighs again and continues explaining.经纪人叹了口气，继续解释道。
经纪人Remember how Mr. Nostradamus has been on sick leave for a while now? On top of your condition during the rehearsal...之前的占卜师诺特雷达姆先生不是因病请假了一阵子吗？加上彩排的时候你的状态……
经纪人Well, in any case, we managed to get Miss Luna from Universal Anything Services to join us as a guest fortune-teller for today's recording.总之，今天我们请到了环球万事服务的月光小姐，以客座占卜师的身份和我们一起录制节目。
YelenaI see... But is it me, or are you already very familiar with Miss Luna?原来是这样……不过经纪人似乎和月光小姐非常熟悉？
经纪人Well, HQ is working with UAS on this, so the truth is that we've been handling Miss Luna's career as a wandering fortune-teller. You could say it's sort of destined...因为总部和环球万事服务的合作，所以其实月光小姐作为流浪占卜师的运营是由我们进行的。所以也算是有点缘分……
经纪人Still, Yelena, the reason why Luna is doing the recording with you isn't just to sub for Mr. Nostradamus, but also for you to gain some inspiration for fortune-telling from Luna.不过叶莲娜，这一次让月光和你一起录制节目不仅仅是为了替代无法到现场的诺特雷达姆先生，总部也是希望你能够从月光的身上寻找对于占卜的灵感。
经纪人If possible, we're hoping that you can interact more with her. So basically, that's it; the show format won't change, just that the fortune-teller's going to have a different name.如果可能的话，你可以和她多多交流。大概就是这样，节目的录制流程不会有变化，只是占卜师名字需要变更一下。
YelenaGot it. I've already changed the script.我明白了，我已经修改好稿子了。
经纪人Alright, then I won't disturb you any further... Luna! Remember to read the planning document. I need to discuss the details of today's recording with the director, so I'll be off.好了，那我就不打扰你们了……月光！记得看方案里的内容。我还要去和导演讨论接下来录制的事宜，先走了。
Saying so, the manager leaves Luna and Yelena with each other.经纪人说完便抛下了月光和叶莲娜先走了一步。
LunaWhew... I thought she was going to nag me for a while.呼……还以为她又要对着我说教几分钟。
LunaI didn't expect you to be the host I'd be working with today. I heard you can do readings too, so let's have a good time working together~没想到你就是今天要和我合作的主持人，之前就听说你也会占卜，请多多指教啦~
YelenaI hope we do, Miss Luna.请多指教，月光小姐。

YelenaMiss Luna has sparked much debate on the internet as a wandering fortune-teller, and we are honored to have her take part in our show today.月光小姐作为流浪的占卜师在互联网上已经引发了许多热烈的讨论，这一次我们也是非常荣幸地邀请到了月光小姐参与我们的节目。
YelenaTo begin with, how would you like to do a reading for our audience, Miss Luna?作为开幕，不如月光小姐先来为我们在现场的观众进行一次占卜？
LunaHahaha, sure.哈哈哈，好啊。
Luna rises from the sofa.月光从沙发上站了起来。
LunaNow, let's see who among the audience is fated to meet with me...那么就让我用占卜来找一找，究竟是哪一位观众和我更有缘分吧。
Yelena(Fortune-telling... and fate. I see, using fortune-telling language like that would probably make me sound more like the real thing.)（占卜……缘分。原来如此，采用这样的占卜师用词来包装会更像是一个占卜师吧。）
Yelena watches Luna and silently makes a note of the phrasing and word choice she uses.叶莲娜一边看着月光的表现，一边在心中记录着月光的用词和用语。
Yelena(Show me what a fortune-teller Doll ought to be like, then...)（就让我见识一下，占卜人形究竟是怎么做的吧……）
Yelena(I don't want to be returned.)（我……绝对不要被退货。）
LunaMmm, the signs from this direction are stronger... Yes, I've found it...嗯嗯，这个方向的预兆更加强烈……找到了……
Luna points to a member of the audience.月光向一位观众伸出了手。
YelenaSince Miss Luna has picked her first member of the audience for a consultation, why don't you come up on stage and join us?既然月光小姐选择了今天第一个占卜的对象，那么就让我们有请这位观众上台吧。
The staffers guide a young woman onto the stage.在工作人员的指引下，一名观众走上了舞台。
观众Hi, I'm very glad you picked me...你好，非常感谢你选择了我……
LunaWelcome, we're so glad you're here. I'll help divine the answer you need.欢迎你的到来，我会为你占卜出你想要的答案的。
Yelena steps aside, graciously yielding the spotlight to Luna and the audience member.叶莲娜主动退到一边，将镜头让给了月光和观众。
观众My name is Diana, and I run a coffee shop. My great-grandfather left it to us... and our entire family cherishes it deeply...我叫戴安娜，家中经营着咖啡馆。这是我曾祖父为我们留下来的遗产……我们一家都非常珍惜……
Yelena(System Command: Now searching for relevant information—facial features, audience registration information, organizing data, pinpointing location—)（系统指令：正在检索相关信息，外貌特征，观众登记信息，资料整合，属地推算——）
Yelena(System Search Results: coffee shop, length of operation, 35-60 years, give or take 3 years.)（系统指令：正在检索相关信息，关键词——咖啡馆，营业年份，35~60，误差正负3年。）
YelenaSo business is bad, is that it... They seem to be having financial problems. I bet Lam could solve it if she were here.经营不善吗……是经济问题啊。如果拉姆在的话，感觉可以解决呢。
LunaSurely it must be a luxurious yet lively traditional cafe, no? I don't drink coffee often, but I enjoy the fragrance of the beans.想必是一家非常精致但是又不失生活气息的传统咖啡馆吧？我虽然很少品尝咖啡，但是却很喜欢咖啡豆散发的香气。
观众Thank you. If you came, I'd serve you our best coffee and snacks.谢谢，如果是你来的话，我一定会奉上最好的咖啡和点心。
LunaIn that case, all the more reason for me to do a reading to help solve the issues plaguing you as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'd have no way to keep our appointment.既然如此，我就更该用占卜帮助你们尽快走出经营不善的困境，否则，我就没有办法赴约了呢。
观众Huh? But how did you know...欸？为什么你会知道……
LunaWell, before the consultation, I secretly asked Fate to tell me a little bit about your situation. Are you mad?在占卜之前，我偷偷向命运询问了你的事情，生气了吗？
Luna winks cheekily at her and an exquisite coins spins and flips between her fingertips.月光俏皮地眨了眨眼，精致的硬币在她的指尖来回翻动。
Yelena(She's using all that vague language again...)（又是这样含糊不明的说法……）
Yelena(Why is she doing this? She clearly got that information by reading her profile and working backwards, so why can't she be honest about it?)（为什么要这么做？明明是通过侧写拆解出来的信息，为什么不坦荡地告诉对方？）
Yelena(Wouldn't the person looking for help get more annoyed if you told them all this?)（这种表达方式难道不是只能让求助者更加烦躁吗？）
Yelena unconsciously tugs at the hem of her skirt, but what surprises her is that the audience member actually seems relieved by this.叶莲娜下意识拽了拽裙角，然而让她意外的是，观众却反而露出了安心的表情。
观众I see, so all these ups and downs were decreed by fate...原来是这样，眼下的坎坷都是命中注定的吗……
观众I can't believe you managed to determine my problem in an instant. You really are a great seer. Surely you must also know how to solve it too, right?居然能一眼看出我的问题，真不愧是大师，想来你一定有对应的解决之法吧？
观众It's like you said, our coffee shop has run into a difficult patch. Fewer and fewer people like traditional coffee, and we won't be able to make up for our mounting losses.正如你说的那样，我们的咖啡馆遇到了一些困难，喜欢传统咖啡的客人越来越少，亏损眼看着就要弥补不上了。
Yelena(City remodeling often leads to consumer migration. Artisanal coffee establishments going under as a result are a predictable outcome.)（城市改造，居民消费中心迁移，这样的手工咖啡馆倒闭是可以预见的事情。）
LunaIn that case, let us perform a fortune-telling to guide our lost traveler onto the right path!既然如此，就让占卜来为迷惘的旅人指引前行的方向吧！
Luna grabs the audience member's hands and rhythmically rubs it. The warm sensation causes the other woman to relax until she closes her eyes.月光握住观众的手掌，有节奏地摩挲着，温柔的触感让观众越发地放松了起来，直至闭上眼睛。
LunaFate, oh Fate, tell me of her worries and how to resolve them.命运呀命运，请告诉我她的迷惘，还有出路吧。
LunaFate has asked me to convey this message: What does the coffee shop mean to you?命运要我问你，咖啡馆，对你来说意味着什么呢？
观众The coffee shop... is my childhood.咖啡馆……是我的童年。
观众I grew up drinking coffee, I imitated grandpa as he made his coffee, and I dreamed of becoming a barista...我喝着咖啡长大，模仿爷爷冲泡咖啡，梦想着将来要成为咖啡师……
观众I'm the only one in our generation who learned all of grandpa's skills, and now I'm a barista, but the coffee shop may have to close down soon.我是我们这一辈唯一得到爷爷真传的孩子，现在我成了咖啡师，可咖啡馆却要倒了。
Yelena(...Is she trying to get her personal history? Will this information help solve her problems?)（……这是在问个人履历？这些信息对解决问题有帮助吗？）
LunaAnd why is it going to close down?它为什么要倒了呢？
观众Because the coffee shop isn't attracting customers.因为咖啡馆吸引不到客人了。
观众Coffee shops nowadays... just can't duplicate the flavor of grandpa's coffee.现在咖啡馆的咖啡……做不出爷爷的味道。
观众I tried my best, but no matter what I did, I just couldn't get it right, even when I followed his recipes to the letter...可我真的很努力了，但不管我怎么尝试，哪怕一丝不苟地照着配方也没有办法……
Yelena(What is Luna doing? Why is she getting the audience member all emotional? Shouldn't she be prioritizing the improvement of the coffee shop's business practices?)（月光到底在做什么？深入观众的情绪有什么意义？现在难道不该优先考虑改善咖啡馆的营业方式吗？）
观众Should I give up? Should I stop running the coffee shop the way I am now and use machines instead of preparing the coffee by hand? I...我该放弃吗？改变咖啡馆的经营方式，抛弃手工，使用机器，我……
Yelena(Given the circumstances, she has a point. At the very least, it should help solve the problem with the target demographic.)（根据现状来看，这位观众说的其实没错，这样至少能在很大程度上解决客源受众的问题。）
LunaShhh—Don't be so hasty.嘘——不要急躁。
LunaThe way you run your business isn't the key to solving the problem. Think carefully. Think about the times you spent in the coffee shop.经营方式并不是解决问题的关键，好好想想，好好想想你在咖啡馆里度过的时光。
LunaThe beans have left their mark on your hands, and the scent of the coffee has soaked into the fabric of your clothes... Truly, you are an impressive barista.咖啡豆在你双手留下的痕迹，咖啡的香气浸润过你的衣袂……你是多么出色的一名手工咖啡师。
观众...I'm not, Luna, I'm not. I can't do it like grandpa did.……我不是，月光，我不是，我做不到像爷爷那样。
LunaReally?真的吗？
Luna lets go of the audience member's hand and the latter opens her eyes in surprise.月光松开了观众的手掌，后者迟疑地睁开了眼睛。
LunaThen why are you the only one who received your grandpa's inheritance?那为什么，你是唯一一个得到爷爷传承的孩子呢？
观众I... I don't know. Maybe grandpa made a mistake.我……我不知道……或许是爷爷他看走眼了。
LunaOr maybe he didn't make a mistake, but you've been following too closely in your grandfather's footsteps.或许，并不是他看走了眼，而是你看了太久爷爷的背影。
观众But if I can't reproduce grandpa's recipe, there's no way I can do it by myself...可是，如果不能复现爷爷的配方，仅靠我自己的能力，根本不可能……
LunaShh—嘘——
Once again, Luna interrupts the audience member as she starts to question herself.月光又一次打断了观众的自我质疑。
LunaDo you hear it?你听到了吗？
观众Hear... hear what?什……什么？
LunaListen, it's a kindly, aged voice, very quiet... very quiet indeed...听，一个慈祥的，苍老的声音，声音很轻……很轻……
LunaHe's saying... He's saying that handcrafted coffee has fallen out of style. In this era when nobody can afford to stop, nobody is willing to wait.他说……他说手工咖啡落寞了，在这个停不下来的时代，没人愿意等待。
LunaBut he also says that even in a time like this, his beloved great-granddaughter still insists on doing something that seems foolish to others, and she's held on by herself for so long...但他又说，可就是在这样的时代里，他最亲昵的小辈仍在坚持着在别人看来很傻气的东西，而且坚持了很久很久……
LunaHe's happy and he's proud, proud that his little girl's become such an amazing barista.他很高兴，很自豪，自豪自己的小辈成为了如此出色的咖啡师。
观众Really... is that... true...真的是……这样……吗……
Luna doesn't answer. She closes her eyes and imitates the trademark flourishes of a barista making a drink in the air above the audience member's cup.月光没有回答，她闭上了眼，虚握空气，在接待嘉宾用的杯子上方作出了咖啡师经典的拉花动作。
And then, she gently pushes the cup over to the audience member.而后将杯子轻轻推到观众的身前。
LunaHe is old, but his back is straight and firm. He grinds the beans in a practiced way, and naturally, his pouring technique is super cool. He says...他虽然老了，但站得很直，磨咖啡的手法非常熟练，拉花的动作更是帅极了。他说……
LunaHe says, don't focus on the recipe alone. A little piece of paper can't contain all of him. He says the person who decides how good the coffee is isn't the customer but the barista themself.他说，不要只顾盯着配方，那小小的纸张写不出他。他说，决定咖啡是否出色的并不是客人，而是咖啡师自己。
The audience member's jaw drops. Her lip quivers, on the verge of speaking, but not quite.观众愣怔着张了张嘴，几番蠕动，欲言又止。
LunaHe says... If you want to see him, then make a cup of coffee. He's free now, and he'll help you give it a taste.他说……如果你想见他，就泡一杯咖啡，他有空了，会帮你尝尝看。
As she says this, Luna opens her eyes and smiles.月光适时地睁开眼睛，轻轻一笑。
LunaHe was so proud as he said those words, and so happy.他说这些话的时候表情很骄傲，也很欣慰。
The other woman smiles and breathes a sigh of relief before accepting the cup and downing it in a gulp.观众跟着笑了起来，释然地松了口气，接过杯子一饮而尽。
观众Thank you, Luna. You're the best fortune-teller ever.谢谢你，月光，你是最好的占卜师。
Recording: Skeptic – 3 录制：质疑者-3
Read this chapter with voices →YelenaThank you all for watching. We hope you will join us again for the next episode.感谢各位的收看，期待与您在下一次的节目中再度相会。
导演CUT! Alright, that's a wrap!好！CUT！收工收工！
导演Thank you, everyone!大家辛苦了！
As Yelena finishes the closing address, the director officially announces the end of the recording session.伴随着叶莲娜说完了结尾的台词，导演正式宣布节目的录制结束。
LunaWhew... Man, that was tiring...呼……好累啊……
经纪人Thank you very much, everyone! You were amazing at the end back there, Miss Luna. Super amazing!各位辛苦了！月光小姐最后的表现很棒！特别棒！
LunaHehe, aw, it was nothing.嘿嘿，倒也没有啦。
经纪人Nothing? That was a textbook example of how a fortune-teller ought to act. How about it, Yelena. Did you learn something?怎么会，简直就是完美的占卜家示范教材，怎么样，叶莲娜，有学到一点吗？
经纪人Do your best and try to surpass Luna!加把劲，争取超过月光！
LunaI'm standing right here!噫，我还在这里呢！
经纪人Yelena? Is something wrong?叶莲娜？你怎么了？
YelenaI... Frankly speaking, I still don't get it.我……说实话，我还是不太明白。
经纪人Huh?欸？
YelenaMiss Luna said a lot, but in the end, she didn't really help the audience member with her problem, so I don't get it... Is that what fortune-telling is?月光小姐虽然说了很多，但却没有帮助观众解答她提出的问题，我不明白……这也能算占卜吗？
Yelena's brows wrinkle. She seems both frustrated and suspicious at the same time.叶莲娜的眉头紧蹙着，像是在苦恼，又像是在质疑。
经纪人How is that not what it is? Luna perfectly resolved her client's issues, didn't she?怎么不算？月光不是完美地解决了观众的心结吗？
经纪人You were watching it all from the side.你就在旁边看着的。
YelenaThe audience member wanted to know why her coffee shop wasn't doing well and how to fix it.观众想知道的是咖啡馆经营不善，接下去该怎么做。
YelenaBut Luna completely evaded the question and went on and on about her grandfather and so on... saying all this and that.月光却避开这个问题，虚构了一堆观众的爷爷怎么……怎么怎么说，怎么怎么做。
YelenaDoes that really help solve her problem?这真的能称作解答吗？
经纪人Yelena! You're being terribly rude...叶莲娜！你这么说太失礼了……
LunaHmm... It's alright. It seems you're having some difficulty of your own too, Yelena. Since Fate has guided me to you, I'll try to give you a hand!呼……没关系。看来叶莲娜也遇到了一些迷惘呀。看在你是我命运中指引的人的份上，我就来帮帮你吧！
LunaSince you think what I'm doing isn't fortune-telling, why don't you tell me how I should have handled Miss Diana—that is to say, the audience member from just now?既然你觉得我的做法算不上占卜，那你觉得刚才应该怎么面对戴安娜小姐——也就是刚才那位观众的疑问呢？
YelenaYou should have gone for the heart of the issue and told her the right way to solve the problems with running the coffee shop...直面问题的核心，提供解决咖啡店经营困难的正确方式……
LunaIs that what you think fortune-telling is?这是你认为的占卜方式吗？
YelenaYes. A fortune-teller should solve the problems of the people who come to them and give them the right answers. That's all.没错。占卜师回应被占卜人的问题，给予正确的答案，帮助被占卜人解决问题就好了。
LunaDon't make light of fortune-telling!不要小看了占卜啊！
YelenaHuh?诶？
Yelena is a little stunned by Luna's response.叶莲娜对于月光的反应有些迷茫。
LunaAll you heard and saw was what Miss Diana said, but you didn't pick up on the REAL problem in her heart.你所看到的听到的，只是戴安娜小姐说出口的问题，却没有察觉到她内心真正的问题。
YelenaThe real problem in her heart?内心真正的问题？
LunaThe truth is, Miss Diana already knew how to increase her income, didn't she? She even stated the answer herself—change the way she ran the coffee shop and use machines instead of making coffee by hand.其实戴安娜小姐知道该怎么做才能增加营收不是吗？她甚至自己说出了答案——改变咖啡馆的经营方式，抛弃手工，使用机器。
YelenaYes. Given the circumstances, that would have been the best solution at the moment.是的。根据现状来看，这是目前最好的解决手段。
LunaSo why didn't she do it?但她为什么没有这么做呢？
YelenaI...这……
LunaShe didn't do it because deep in her heart, she wanted to carry on the tradition of handmade coffee and become a barista who would do her grandfather proud...她之所以没有这么做，是因为她内心想要继续坚守传统的手工咖啡方式，成为令爷爷骄傲的咖啡师……
LunaAnd once this episode airs, it'll help her attract people who love artisanal coffee and help solve her financial situation.只要这期节目播出，就一定能帮助她吸引许多爱好手工咖啡的客人，帮助她改善经营问题。
LunaAlso, she needed a little bit of courage and a little push so she would realize and stand by her true convictions. THAT is why we do fortune-telling!而除此之外，她还需要一些勇气，推动她察觉到并坚持内心的想法。这才是我们进行占卜的目的啊！
Yelena...So you're saying that all that showy performance and answers that seemed beside the point were what actually helped to resolve "her real issues"?……你的意思是，那些繁杂无意义的动作表演和偏离重点的问答，才引导她解开了“真正的心结”吗？
Luna...It seems I made a mistake just now...……看来我刚才说错了……
LunaYou aren't making light of fortune-telling. You never understood it in the first place!你不是小看占卜，你是根本没有理解过占卜！
YelenaWhat... What are you saying?!你……说什么？！
LunaYour knowledge of fortune-telling stops at the surface. You never really went in-depth to understand what it truly means.你对占卜的理解只是停留在表面，从来没有深入去理解过占卜的含义。
LunaThe person seeking to have their fortune told doesn't just want an answer. Sometimes, what they're looking for is just encouragement or affirmation or even the realization that they never truly understood what their problem actually was.被占卜者寻求的结果不仅仅是答案这么简单，有的时候他们来寻求的可能只是一份鼓励，一个肯定，甚至有可能他们自己都未曾理解自己真正的疑惑是什么。
LunaThat's why a fortune-teller needs to search for what their client really wants and do it with all their might.所以占卜师需要去探寻，探寻被占卜者究竟在寻求什么，竭尽全力。
LunaHave you ever tried asking your clients what they actually wanted?你有尝试过去探求被占卜者真正寻求的东西吗？
YelenaWhat they actually wanted...真正寻求的东西……
LunaIt's just like how you're asking me what counts as proper fortune-telling, but is that what you REALLY want to ask?就像你现在询问我怎样才能算真正的占卜，但你真正想问的是这个吗？
LunaYou're feeling frustrated and angry now. You don't know whether this anger is directed at me or someone else, and you're feeling a little guilty too. Where do all these feelings come from?你现在很焦躁，很恼怒，分不清对我还是对谁的，还有一点愧疚。这份情绪从何而来呢？
Luna's answer leaves Yelena in a daze.月光的话语让叶莲娜陷入了恍惚。
YelenaIndeed, the domestic services industry is facing quite a few difficulties right now. The biggest reason is the advent of domestic maid Dolls. From my information, I can deduce that maid Dolls are three times more efficient than humans.家政行业这一段时间确实面临很多问题，其中最大的原因是家政服务人形的出现。根据数据可以测算出，家政服务人形有着人类三倍以上的效率。
演员Er...呃……
YelenaTherefore, I would conclude that, given the current market environment, the traditional domestic services industry is no longer tenable. However, due to the basic principles of the domestic services industry... it would be better to reorient one's strategy rather than abandon the market entirely.所以根据我的推测，在当前环境下，传统家政服务业已经不适合了。但是鉴于，家政服务业的基础素质……与其放弃家政服务不如改变策略。
Yelena(I... Was what I did back then...)（我……难道所做的……）
导演Yelena, do you even know what you were saying just now?叶莲娜，你好好想想你刚刚都说了什么？
导演Are you rattling off answers to an exam? You're a DOLL. Why are you talking like a primitive AI by citing data and conclusions?你是测试用的系统问答机吗？你是人形啊。你怎么回答问题跟个低级AI一样，上数据上结论啊？
LunaYelena, you need to search your soul. If you can't resolve your issues, you will NEVER be able to become a true fortune-teller, not even a crude copy of one.叶莲娜，你可以询问一下自己的内心。如果你的心结无法解开，那么你也永远做不出真正的占卜，甚至连拙劣的模仿也做不到。
YelenaMy fortune-telling isn't a crude imitation!我的占卜才不是拙劣的模仿！
经纪人Ahem, ladies, please...咳咳，两位注意一下……
Her manager clears her throat to indicate that they should both take a step back.经纪人适时地咳嗽了两声，示意两边都稍微冷静一点。
经纪人Calm down, you two. You're getting too worked up.冷静一下，你们都太激动了。
经纪人You won't be able to resolve anything if you argue here. Why don't you exchange contact info and discuss it again later.你们两个在这里也讨论不出一个结果，不如交换一下联系方式之后再讨论。
LunaI'm not worked up! I just...我没有激动！我只是……
Luna pouts. It seems she's not happy with this outcome either.月光嘟着嘴，似乎对于这个结果并不满意。
Yelena(Exhales heavily)呼……
Yelena tries to soothe her somewhat-ruffled emotional modules.叶莲娜尝试平复自己有些波动的情感模块。
Yelena(System Command: Now searching for relevant information—keywords: What is fortune-telling?)（系统指令：正在检索相关信息，关键词——什么是占卜。）
Yelena(Could it be that I never really understood fortune-telling in the first place?)（我难道真的从来没有理解过占卜是什么吗？）
Yelena(System Search Results: An occult activity employing so-called supernatural or numerical computational methods...)（系统检索结果：占卜是由所谓超自然或者以数据推演运算的方法来推特未来或者探究事物的神秘学活动……）
The system gives her a textbook answer.系统给出了非常标准的百科内容。
Yelena(No, that's not what I want to know... I...)（不对，我想要知道的不是这个……我……）
Yelena looks at Luna and recalls what she said just now.叶莲娜看着月光，回忆刚刚月光所说的内容。
Yelena(Maybe I never truly understood what my problem actually was...)（甚至有可能都未曾理解自己真正的疑惑是什么吗……）
YelenaPardon me. I made a fool of myself.抱歉，我有些失态了。
Yelena bows to Luna and her manager.叶莲娜向月光和经纪人鞠了一躬。
YelenaHowever, I still don't understand what you're saying. And it's true... I don't understand your way of fortune-telling.但是，我还是不能够理解你所说的内容。也确实……我不理解你所说的占卜。
LunaIn that case... I'll use my readings to challenge you and show you what real fortune-telling is!既然如此……我就用我的占卜来挑战你，让你亲身见识一下什么是真正的占卜吧！
经纪人That's enough, both of you! You won't help the program if you keep arguing like this!你们两个适可而止啊！快停下来。这样争吵下去，对节目可没有丝毫帮助啊！
The manager frantically steps in to stop them as she senses the sparks flying again.看着两个人的火药味再一次有点燃的迹象，经纪人急忙想要阻止。
YelenaThe show...节目……
导演In any case, just work as fast as you can. The whole point of bringing Dolls aboard was to cut down on filming time and costs. Even if Yelena's contributed a lot, we can't keep accommodating her like this.总之能快尽量快点吧，节目引进人形的初衷是缩减拍摄成本和时间，就算叶莲娜有功，我们也不可能一直这样纵容。
经纪人I understand your concerns, director, and I've actually spoken to HQ about this. If Yelena still can't handle the job, Cyber Media is willing to offer a product return...我明白导演您的顾虑，其实我们这边也和总部沟通了，如果叶莲娜接下来还不能胜任这份工作，赛博传媒可以提供退货服务……
YelenaI get it now...我明白了……
经纪人Yelena?!叶莲娜？！
YelenaPardon me, Manager. If Luna's fortune-telling can help clear up the doubts in my mind...抱歉了，经纪人，如果月光的占卜能够帮助我解决心中的疑惑……
YelenaThen I won't hesitate to give it a try.那么我会毫不犹豫地去尝试。
经纪人You...你……
The manager glances at Yelena and then at Luna, who already has her fortune-telling paraphernalia in hand.经纪人看了叶莲娜一眼，又看了看手里已经拿起占卜道具的月光。
经纪人You two... (Sigh) You win.你们……唉，拗不过你们。
YelenaLuna, if you can resolve the doubts in my heart, then I'll accept your challenge.月光，如果你能够解答我心中的疑惑，那么我接受你的挑战。
LunaDon't worry! My reading will leave you convinced!放心吧，我的占卜一定能让你心服口服！
Yelena studies Luna's confident expression, and data from her previous system searches appear in her neural cloud.叶莲娜看着月光那自信满满的神情，心智中浮现出之前在系统中检索出的数据结论。
Yelena(System Command: Keyword Search Results Obtained—Show popularity, viewership numbers rising.)（系统指令：已检索出关键词结果——节目热度，收视率涨幅。）
Yelena(System Command: Keyword Search Results Obtained—Countermeasures against decreasing show quality, recommend staff makeup change)（系统指令：已检索出关键词结果——节目质量降低措施，节目成员变动。）
Yelena(From the system's conclusion, the show will be in trouble at this rate, and all the efforts of the director and the manager will have gone to waste.)（照系统的推论，再这样下去节目一定会出问题，导演和经纪人的努力都会毁于一旦。）
Yelena(Meanwhile, I'll be RMAed because I couldn't fulfill my work requirements.)（而我也会因为无法履行人形工作要求而被退货。）
Yelena(The best solution to problem one is to replace me with a fortune-teller that everyone trusts.)（问题一的最优解，是有一个大家都信服的占卜师可以替代我。）
Yelena glances at Luna.叶莲娜看向月光的眼神微微动了一下。
Yelena(As for problem two...)（至于问题二……）
In the moment when Yelena contemplates the issue, the system brings together all the information at her disposal, and she once again sees a recent memory.系统在叶莲娜思考的瞬间便将一有信息进行拼装组合，她再次看见了不久前的一幕。
LamThink of it as making a friend. For some reason, you feel more like someone in my line of work than a TV host or a fortune-teller.就当交个朋友，总觉得在气质上，比起占卜师和主持人，你更像是我的同行。
LamHave you considered a change of surroundings, perhaps?不知道你有没有考虑过换个环境？
YelenaI understand. Luna, show me how you do your fortune-telling. If I approve of your methods...我明白了。月光，让我亲身见识一下你的占卜。如果我认同了你的占卜方式……
YelenaThen I will quit fortune-telling and leave the crew immediately.那我会放弃占卜，并就此退出节目组。
经纪人Yelena! Are you even thinking about what you're saying?!叶莲娜！你在说什么气话？！
Her manager pounds the table as she stares in disbelief at Yelena.经纪人重重一拍桌子，不可置信地看向叶莲娜。
YelenaManager, I'm perfectly aware of what I just said. I have given this matter sufficient thought...经纪人，我很清醒。我已经经过了充分的考量……
Just then, an urgent ringing interrupts everyone.就在这时，一阵急促的铃声打断了众人。
YelenaHuh? This number is...嗯？这个号码是……
Yelena takes out her communications terminal.叶莲娜拿出了通讯终端。
????Help... Help me, Big Sis Yelena!救……救救我！叶莲娜姐姐！

YelenaWhat happened to you? Are you alright? Where is your father and mother?你怎么了？现在还好吗？你的爸爸妈妈呢？
小男孩I... I snuck out by myself... (sniffle) If Mama and Papa knew... (sob) they'd spank me...我……我是自己偷偷跑出来的……呜呜呜……爸爸妈妈要是知道了……呜呜呜……会打我的吧……
YelenaDidn't you tell me you came out with your parents before this?可你之前不是告诉我，你和爸爸妈妈一起出门的吗？
小男孩(Whimper) I'm sorry, I lied.呜呜呜，对不起，我骗了你。
小男孩Papa and Mama kept saying it was dangerous near the Yellow Zone, but I really wanted to go on your show, Big Sis Yelena...爸爸妈妈一直念叨着黄区附近很危险，但我真的很想参加叶莲娜姐姐的节目。
小男孩(Sob) I'm sorry, I'm really sorry...呜呜呜，对不起，真的对不起……
Yelena(System Command: Now searching for relevant information—program scheduled start time, Yellow Zone border markers, estimated child stamina, and foot movement speed)（系统指令：正在检索相关信息，节目预定开始时间，黄区标定点位坐标，低龄儿童平均脚程及体力预估。）

YelenaWhat happened!?怎么了？！
小男孩I... I don't know either... there's... there's a weird... noise... (sob)我……我也不知道………有……有奇怪的……声音……呜呜呜……
小男孩Big... Big... Big Sis Yelena... (sniffle) I, I'm scared... (sob)叶……叶……叶莲娜姐姐……呜呜呜……呜呜……我怕，我好害怕……呜呜呜……
YelenaDon't worry, Astra, I'm here with you.阿斯特拉，不要怕。姐姐在，姐姐在这里。
YelenaBig Sis is helping you think of a solution, so don't worry.姐姐在帮你想办法，不要着急。
经纪人Oh, hell! The weather bureau just issued a warning: extreme weather alert on the edges of the Yellow Zone right now! Maybe that kid's stuck on the outskirts of the Yellow Zone.见鬼！靠近黄区的区域现在正处于极端恶劣的天气，气象局刚发布预警，那个小家伙说不准就是这么被困在黄区附近了。
YelenaWhat about the police? Did they say anything?警方呢？警方有消息吗？
经纪人They're sending out people, but they're having a hard time right now. The dispatcher is hoping that we can provide more detailed information for search and rescue.警方也开始行动了，但是他们现在也很麻烦，接线员希望我们能提供更精确的信息以便搜救。
YelenaDo you mean the info just now wasn't enough?之前给的数据不行吗？
经纪人It's too vague!还是太宽泛了！
YelenaLet me think... give me a moment...我想想……我想想……
Yelena(System Command: Awaiting search keywords...)（系统指令：正在等待检索关键词……）
YelenaAstra?阿斯特拉？
小男孩(Sniffle) I'm here, Big Sis...呜……呜呜，姐姐，我……我在。
YelenaI need you to tell me something about where you are. Anything will do. Can you tell me what's around you?我现在需要你提供信息给我，什么都好，能告诉我你周围有什么吗？
小男孩I... I don't know (sob) I don't know...我……我不知道，呜呜呜……我不知道。
YelenaCalm down, Astra! Just tell me something, anything will do!冷静下来！阿斯特拉！告诉我信息，什么都可以！
小男孩I... I...我……我……
The boy sniffles, and then there is the sound of water, as though he's trying to move.小男孩啜泣着，伴随着一阵水声，似是在尝试行动。
小男孩I'm in a big... a big room and there are lots of machines in it.我在一个很大……很大的房间，有好多机器。
经纪人It might be an abandoned factory. As I recall, there were lots of them in that area. The layout is a mess, and once the storm hit, Astra must have run inside to take shelter and gotten lost.可能是废弃工厂，我记得那片区域有不少这些东西，规划全是乱的，暴雨一来，阿斯特拉大概率是跑进去迷路了。
Yelena(System Command: Now searching for relevant information: machine plant, Yellow Zone, machine room??? facility size???)（系统指令：正在检索相关信息，机械工厂，黄区，厂房？？？，规模上下限？？？）
Yelena(System Command: Error, insufficient parameters. The target area is classified, or data is missing. Please provide more detailed parameters or search logic links.)（系统指令：错误，参数样本不足，检测目标区域存在密级及数据缺失，请提供更详细的参数或检索逻辑链。）
YelenaDammit! Astra, can you hear me? Can you tell me more?可恶！阿斯特拉，你听得见吗？能不能再告诉姐姐更多的东西？
小男孩I... I...我……我……
Grind— Grind— Grind—哐——哐——哐——
Beep—哗——
小男孩Aiiiiiiieee!咿呀！
小男孩I don't know! I don't know! (Sob) I don't know我不知道！我不知道！呜呜呜呜……我不知道……
小男孩Help me... (whimper) Someone help me, please... (sniffle)救救我……呜呜呜，有谁来救救我……呜呜呜……
YelenaCalm down! Astra!冷静点！阿斯特拉！
YelenaTell me something! You can do it. Believe in yourself, just calm...给我信息，你可以的，相信自己，冷静一……
Before she can finish, Luna taps Yelena on the shoulder with one hand and takes the communicator with the other.话音未落，月光一只手按住了叶莲娜的肩膀，另一只手拿走了通讯器。
LunaYou should calm down too, Yelena. Astra will be fine. Allow me to show him where his destiny lies.你也冷静一些，叶莲娜。阿斯特拉会没事的，就让我来为他指引命运的方向吧。
With that, Luna brings her face near the communicator. Her voice suddenly lowers in pitch, becoming gentle and clear.语毕，月光凑近通讯器，声音骤然压低，变得温柔清晰。
LunaAstra, can you hear me? I'm Luna.阿斯特拉，听得见吗？我是月光。

小男孩Lu... Luna?月……月光？
For some reason, the boy seems a little distracted. Maybe it's because of her voice or her name.不知是因为声线还是名字，小男孩被分散开了些许注意力。
小男孩That sounds familiar. I think I've heard it before...好耳熟，好像在哪里听过……
LunaI'm a fortune-teller from UAS. I'm in the same line as your Big Sis Yelena!我是环球万事服务的占卜师，和你的叶莲娜姐姐是同行哦！
小男孩Wow! Really? You're a fortune-teller too? (Sniffle) Big Sis Yelena's also a fortune-teller.唔！真的吗，你也是占卜师……呜呜呜，叶莲娜姐姐也是占卜师。
小男孩I wanted to join your show, but I can't do it now... (sniffle) Am I going to die here? (sob)我好想参加你们的节目，可是现在没有办法了，呜呜呜……我是不是要死在这里了……呜呜呜……
小男孩Should I not have done all this fortune-telling stuff? Is this my punishment? (sniffle)是不是我不该接触占卜，这是对我的惩罚，呜呜呜呜……
LunaHey, listen to me, okay, Astra? This isn't a punishment. This is a trial that a hero faces on his adventures!嘿，阿斯特拉，听我说，这可不是惩罚，这是勇者进行冒险的时候才能遭遇的考验！
小男孩(Sob) A... A trial?呜……呜呜……考……考验？
LunaYup. There are lots of brave people in this world who want to challenge themselves or challenge life, and so they go on adventures.对呀，这个世界上呀，有很多很多勇敢的人，他们想要挑战自己，挑战生活，于是踏上了冒险的旅途。
LunaIn order to reward their courage, Fate specially prepares lots of trials for them.为了称赞他们的勇气，所以命运啊，特意准备了各种各样的考验给他们。
小男孩But... But I'm not a hero, and I'm not adventurous. I just wanted to go on Big Sis Yelena's show.可……可我不是什么勇者，也没有在冒险，我只是想看叶莲娜姐姐的节目。
LunaOh, really? But I heard it all just now. You're a brave young boy, Astra. You could bear to leave your parents' arms and embark alone on a journey for the things you like.怎么会呢？我刚刚都听说啦，阿斯特拉是个勇敢的孩子，能够离开爸爸妈妈的怀抱，为了喜欢的东西，独自踏上旅程。
LunaIsn't that an adventure?这可不就是冒险吗！
小男孩It... it is?是……是这样的吗？
LunaOf course! I'm a famous fortune-teller, you know! I don't kid around!当然啰！我可是很有名的占卜家，不会乱开玩笑的！
As Luna soothes Astra with her words, she establishes a hands-free connection to the communicator and frantically gestures to Yelena.月光一边用轻松的语调安抚阿斯特拉，打开免提同步信息，一边疯狂朝叶莲娜比划手势。
Yelena gets what Luna is hinting at and quickly draws up a plan in her neural cloud.叶莲娜理解了月光的意思，心智中迅速形成了方案。
YelenaYou want me to check what obvious differences there are between the machine floors in these factories? No citing model numbers, only obvious features of the terrain or their structures!赶紧查查那些厂房有什么明显的区别？不准说机器型号，说显而易见的特征，地势特征建筑特征什么都行！
小男孩Miss... Miss Luna?月……月光姐姐？
LunaAh! Yeah, I'm here! Ah, I've got it at last. I was just looking for my tarot cards just now.欸！我在，我在！哎哟，可算找到了，刚刚姐姐在找塔罗牌。
LunaWhen a great hero like yourself goes out, you need a professional fortune-teller to read your destiny. That's how these stories always go!像阿斯特拉这样厉害的勇者出门，都要配上一个专门的占卜家测试命运，故事都是这么写的哦！
小男孩That sounds like it... So what should I do?好像是这样的……那我要做什么呢？
LunaGo find a high place. Heroes always bid their friends and family goodbye when standing on a high place when they head out, don't they?找一个高一点的地方，勇者出门的时候，不都要站在家门口的高坡上，跟亲戚朋友们告别嘛。
LunaWell, Astra, have you found any high places nearby?怎么样，阿斯特拉，周围有高一点的地方吗？
小男孩Yeah... I think I did, but it looks a little hard to climb.有……有的，就是，就是看起来好难上去。
LunaOhh~! That's your first trial as a hero! Be careful—heroes who fall down before they even head out won't go far!喔~！这就是勇者的第一个考验了！千万要小心，出发前就摔跤的勇者是走不远的。
小男孩I... I can do it! Hup!我……我可以的！嘿……嘿咻！
众人(Wince)嘶——
小男孩Miss Luna, I made it!月光姐姐，我上来了！
众人Whew...呼——
YelenaLooks like the situation in there is much better than we thought.看起来内部环境比我们想象中的要好不少。
小男孩Miss Luna, what should I do next?月光姐姐，我接下来要做什么？
LunaUp next is when we truly bear witness to your destiny! Astra, can you look around yourself and tell me if you see anything very obvious?接下来啊，接下来可就是见证命运的时刻了！阿斯特拉，看看你的周围，有没有非常显眼的东西呀？
LunaNumbers or colors or logos, anything will do. They'll become a lucky charm for you, and they're essential for a good prediction.数字啊，颜色呀，图标啊，什么都行，这些信息将会成为勇者的护身符，作为重要的占卜要素存在。
LunaTherefore, you need to be very serious about this, and then you have to tell me about them after you've carefully checked them and made very sure of what you saw.所以，一定要非常认真，非常仔细地确认后，再告诉姐姐哦。
小男孩I... I see a big number on the wall. The paint's flaking off, and the lower half is in the water.我……我看到墙上有一个好大的数字，都掉漆了，下半边淹在水里。
LunaWow, congrats, you found your lucky number right away. Come, tell me, what does that number say?哇哦，恭喜你，这么快就找到自己的幸运数字啦，来，告诉姐姐，那个数字是什么？
小男孩It says 3! It's a big red number 3! And it's got a little picture of what looks like a knife beside it.是3！是一个红色的3！它的边上还有一个小刀一样的图案。
LunaMm, that's very comprehensive. Looks like a very successful start to your heroing career—这么齐全呀，那看来勇者的开局很顺利哦——
Luna deliberately draws out her words and then seizes the opportunity to cover up the speaker before speaking quickly to the other two.月光特意拉长了语调，再度揪准时机，捂住收音口，以极快的语速催促二人。
LunaNo. 3, knife design. Sounds like a logo.编号3，小刀图案，疑似公司logo。
YelenaGot it!收到！
Yelena(System Command: Now searching for relevant information: machine plant, near Yellow Zone, machine room, No. 3, knife-type logo.)（系统指令：正在检索相关信息，机械工厂，靠近黄区，厂房，编号3，小刀样式LOGO）
Yelena(System Command: Processing search request—)（系统指令：信息汇总处理中——）
Yelena gives Luna a thumbs up, then takes the cell phone her manager is holding and heads outside to contact the police.叶莲娜朝着月光比了个OK的手势，拿走经纪人的手机出门接通警方的电话。
小男孩Miss Luna, what should I do next?月光姐姐，接下来我要怎么做哇？
LunaYup, yup, I'm here!我在我在！
LunaMy, you're in a hurry. Calm down, you can't rush a prediction. We can talk about other things first.哟，这么急呀，稍等一下哦，占卜的过程不能太快，我们可以先聊点其他的东西。
LunaThe more we know, the better the reading is!信息越多对占卜越有益哦！
小男孩Got it! Go ahead, Miss Luna!我知道了！月光姐姐你说吧！

Read this chapter with voices →警察Hello? Can you hear me? We've found the kid.听得到吗？听得到吗？我们已经找到了这个孩子了。
YelenaI hear you! Thank goodness, is he alright?听得到！太好了，他没有事吧？
警察He doesn't appear to be hurt, but he's a little exhausted from being on edge for so long.他身体没有外伤，但是可能是因为过度紧张现在有些脱力。
警察We'll send him to the hospital for a checkup.我们会送他去医院进行一下检查。
YelenaWe've already notified his family, so please contact them and us after you send him to the hospital. Thank you...我们已经通知了他的家人，请你们送他抵达医院后通知一下他的家人和我们。非常感谢……
After repeatedly thanking the police, Yelena hangs up.在反复向警察表达了谢意后，叶莲娜挂断了电话。
LunaWhew... And that's that! Yay!呼……事件解决！噢耶！
After seeing Yelena hang up, Luna spreads her arms and flops onto the sofa.看到叶莲娜挂断了电话，月光张开双臂放松地向沙发上一躺。
LunaOh man, my waist hurts.哎哟，腰都酸了。
As she looks at the sloppy fortune-teller on the sofa and glances at her manager, who has already stepped outside, all Yelena can do is chuckle.看着这个在沙发上毫无形象的占卜师，又瞥了眼走到门外的经纪人，叶莲娜无奈地笑了笑。
YelenaAlthough I said I'd learn from you, I didn't think I'd get a lesson so soon.虽然向你学习是我说的，但没想到课堂来的这么快。
LunaHm?嗯？
YelenaAnd it ended soon enough too.当然，结束得也很快。
Yelena sits beside Luna and supports her chin with her hands as she stares at the cell phone that she had just used to speak to Astra.叶莲娜坐到了月光身边，双手撑起下巴，对着刚刚与阿斯特拉通讯的手机发呆。
YelenaI made the same mistake again, didn't I?我又犯了同样的错误，对吧？
YelenaAstra asked me for help and he told me to save him, but the truth is, as a child, what he needed was emotional support.阿斯特拉向我求助，他嘴里说的是救救他，但实际上作为一个孩子，他真正需要的是情绪的稳定。
YelenaNeither we nor he could save him in the first place. On the contrary, once he calmed down, then even if we couldn't get any information out of him in the end, the police would have been able to find him. But I...救援根本不是我们或者他自己能做到的事情。相反，只要情绪稳定下来，就算后面得不到信息，警察也总能找到他。但我却……
Yelena holds out her hand and scrolls up through the system notices.叶莲娜伸出手，上划系统中的提示信息。
(System Command: Error, insufficient parameters. The target area is classified, or data is missing. Please provide more detailed parameters or search logic links.)（系统指令：错误，参数样本不足，检测目标区域存在密级及数据缺失，请提供更详细的参数或检索逻辑链。）
YelenaI kept bugging him to tell me more because I thought I could get a solution that way, but I didn't know it was just leading me further and further off course.我却在不断地催促他补充信息，好能给出解答，殊不知这样会越来越偏。
YelenaAnd if anything had happened to him in his panic...如果他刚刚真的在慌乱中……
LunaNothing happened to Astra when he was panicked, and you didn't cause anything terrible to happen. Therefore!阿斯特拉没有在慌乱中发生意外，你也没有造就什么糟糕后果，所以！
LunaQuit beating yourself up. We only managed to find him as quickly as we did because you came up with a plan and acted on it so quickly. Isn't that true?别这么自责啦。有了你刚才迅速形成的方案和行动力，我们才能这么快找到他，不是吗？
As she says this, Luna excitedly opens her arms toward Yelena.说罢，月光兴致勃勃地朝着叶莲娜展开双臂。
LunaIn any case, I'm glad we managed to come to a common understanding about fortune-telling.总之，很高兴我们能就占卜达成共识。
LunaI hope your next show turns out better!希望你接下来的节目越做越好！
YelenaNo...不……
Yelena shakes her head, and then she glances at her manager, who's standing outside.叶莲娜摇了摇头，再度瞥了眼站在门外的经纪人。
YelenaThe ideal case is one where we don't reach a consensus.没有达成共识才是最理想的情况。
LunaEh... huh?欸……欸？
YelenaCognitive bias isn't something that can be changed right away, and my issues with fortune-telling come from my neural cloud itself.认识的惯性不是一时半会改的过来的，对占卜的形式纠结是我心智体的部分。
YelenaYou can't just expect to change it like rewriting a program. And now... the program team can't afford to wait for me.它没法像改写程序一样实时见效。而现在的节目组……等不起了。
LunaUm... Ah... Does this... Does this mean you're quitting?嗯……这……你……还要是退出吗？
LunaYou don't have to, right?没必要吧？
YelenaThat's the best solution to my problem at the moment... You see, I understand my problem now, but I'm just too used to solving problems in my usual way.这是我给当下问题最好的解答方式……你看，其实我虽然明白了，但还是习惯用过去的形式来解决问题。
LunaBut the show won't last without you.可你走了节目也会散呀。
YelenaNope. We've got an amazing fortune-teller right here, don't we?不啊，这里还有一个很厉害的占卜师不是吗？
LunaUm... Wha?!嗯……嗯？？
LunaYou're going to just give the show to me?你要直接把节目让给我？
LunaNononono, it sounds like a great deal, but I can't do it. And besides, I'm a wandering fortune-teller!不行不行不行，这种摘桃子的事情虽然很美，但是我做不来。更何况我是流浪的占卜师呀！
YelenaThen... Miss Luna, could you do a reading for me?那……月光小姐，能为我做一次占卜吗？
YelenaI've encountered a problem, and I'd like to...我碰到了一个难题，想要……
LunaSTOP—!Stop——！
Luna takes out a tarot card and covers up Yelena's mouth with it.月光抽出一张塔罗牌抵住叶莲娜的嘴唇。
She looks at Yelena, a pouty smile on her face.又气又好笑地看着叶莲娜。
LunaHave you thought this through?想好了？
YelenaIt's more of doing what's best for everyone.与其说是想好，不如说是保全体面吧。
YelenaAfter all, I've hosted "The Voice of Destiny" for so long. I don't want a half-baked fortune-teller anchoring the show.毕竟做了这么久《占卜之声》的主持人，我也不希望撑起节目的占卜师是个半吊子。
LunaBut what will you do after this? Cyber Media is still in charge of you. Are you going to host another show?那之后你怎么办？你的权责关系还在赛博传媒手上，换个节目当主持人？
YelenaNo...不……
Yelena pauses as though she's recalling something.叶莲娜愣怔了一下，像是回想起了什么。
YelenaPerhaps I'll go try something else.也许我会去体验其他的东西也说不定。
YelenaI haven't decided how I want to view fortune-telling yet. But before that, I'll keep my word and stay away from it.究竟要以什么样的姿态去看待占卜，我还没有想好。不过在那之前，我都会遵守约定，不碰占卜的。
YelenaI can't be a real fortune-teller right now... That's the best solution I have to the problem I'm facing at the moment.现在的我还无法成为真正的占卜师……这就是我面对自己眼下碰到的问题，给出的最好的解决答案吧。
Luna...If you manage to figure out fortune-telling one day, would you come back?……如果有一天，你能顺利地进行占卜了，你会愿意回来吗？
YelenaIf I can show you an answer that satisfies you...如果有一天，我能够向你提交满意的答卷的话……
LunaI see...我明白了……
Luna reveals the card she pressed against Yelena's mouth just now and signs it.月光翻开刚才抵住叶莲娜嘴唇的塔罗牌，在上面签下了自己的名字。
LunaThis is the final card of the Major Arcana of the Tarot, No. 21, The World... which represents completion and accomplishment.这是塔罗牌的大阿尔卡那中编号最末位的一张牌编号21……象征着达成。
LunaIf the day comes when you find your answer. I'll come looking for you with this card. How about that?如果有一天，你有了心中的答案，我会带着这张牌来找你，就这么约好了哦。
As she looks into Luna's determined eyes, all Yelena can do is laugh.看着月光坚定的双眸，叶莲娜无奈地笑了。
YelenaI understand... Since I lost, I'll abide by the terms of the victor.我明白了……既然我是败者，那就遵守胜者定下的规矩吧。
LunaIt's a deal, okay?一言为定哦。
YelenaIt's a deal.一言为定。

As she exits, she encounters her manager, who looks singularly unhappy.刚一出门，就看到了臭着脸的经纪人。
经纪人My, aren't we amazing? You've grown wings and can fly now; you can even request personnel transfers without even informing me. How wonderful.呵，厉害哈，翅膀硬了，申请人事调动我都不知道，能耐啊。

经纪人Take it!拿着！

经纪人Oh yeah, the one on top is from the director.哦，最上面那个是导演给的。
YelenaHeheh, then thank them for me.呵呵，那就先替我谢谢他们吧。
经纪人So?所以呢？
Her manager suddenly goes silent and takes out a deck of cards from her pocket.经纪人突然沉默了一下，又从怀里掏出一沓卡牌。
经纪人I brought your tarot cards along... Are you really going to give up fortune-telling?我将你的塔罗牌带来了……你真的不继续占卜了？
YelenaI probably won't touch it again, not until I truly understand what fortune-telling means and put it into practice. After all, a promise is a promise.在真正理解占卜的意义，并能实际贯彻之前，应该是不会再碰了。毕竟约定就要好好遵守才行。
YelenaThank you for bringing this deck of cards along. It holds a lot of memories for me... I might not be using it after this, but it's still very important to me.谢谢你将这副塔罗牌带给我，它承载了很多回忆……虽然之后或许无法再使用它了，但它对我很重要。
Yelena takes the tarot cards, bids farewell to her manager, and leaves the company office. As she looks back, she suddenly freezes up.叶莲娜接过塔罗牌，告别经纪人走出了公司，回头望去，怅然地顿了一顿。
A person walks over to Yelena and gently pats her shoulder.一个身影迎着叶莲娜走过来，安抚性地拍了拍她的肩。
LamWhat's wrong? Reluctant to leave?怎么了？不舍得吗？
YelenaYes, I've worked here for a long time, after all.是呀，毕竟在这里工作了这么久。
YelenaSpeaking of which, I haven't thanked you for this yet. I'll be in your care again after this.说起来还没谢谢你，接下来的一段时间就请多指教了。
LamWell, it's no big deal. UAS and Cyber Media had a Doll exchange program going on, so it was no skin off my back.应该的，环球万事服务和赛博传媒本身就有人形交换的项目，我不过是举手之劳而已。
LamAnd besides, our manager has complete faith in you after the great success of that deal from before. She can't wait to welcome you.更何况上次贸易大获成功之后，我们经理对你深信不疑，她欢迎你还来不及呢。
YelenaHehe...呵呵……
LamThose things you're holding... Are they fan letters? Looks like you're pretty popular.你手上的这些……都是粉丝的信件吗？你还真是受欢迎啊。
YelenaYeah. Although I feel bad about leaving so suddenly, I'm sure the crew will be able to do even better after I'm gone.是呀。虽然对突然离开感到抱歉，但之后，节目组一定能做得更好的。
YelenaHm? This letter's from...嗯？这封粉丝信是……
Yelena sees that familiar penmanship, which says "Thank you to Yelena and Luna, the fortune-tellers who saved me."叶莲娜看到了熟悉的笔迹，上面写着“致叶莲娜和月光，拯救了我的占卜师们。”
YelenaIt's from Astra... Looks like I'll have to ask the director to pass it on to Luna.阿斯特拉的信……看来这封信还得让导演之后转交给月光才行啊。
Yelena smiles in relief and then tidies up the letters and her tarot cards, preparing to put them away. Just then, a gust of wind blows and a card falls from Yelena's hand.叶莲娜露出释然的笑容，整理信件与塔罗牌准备收起。适时一阵风吹来，叶莲娜手中的一张塔罗牌吹落。
YelenaHm?嗯？
Yelena bends down and picks up the card. It shines under the sunlight.叶莲娜俯下身去，捡起塔罗牌。在阳光下，那张塔罗牌如同闪耀着光彩。
YelenaThe Star... it's the tarot card that symbolizes hope. I thought it would be the Tower, but it turned out to be the Star instead...THE STAR……象征着希望的塔罗牌。本以为是高塔，结果却是星星吗？
Yelena looks at the card she's holding and smiles.叶莲娜看着手中的塔罗牌，露出了一丝笑容。
At the Oasis, in the Medical Department.绿洲，医疗部门。
WillowI didn't expect the story to turn out that way...没想到……居然发生了这么多事情。
YelenaHehe, like I said, it can't be summed up in a couple of sentences. Well, do you have enough for an article now?呵呵，所以我说了，一句两句解释不清楚。怎么样，能够写出好新闻吗？
WillowHehehe, it's all excellent material! Once I get back, I'll sort it out and publish it!哼哼哼，作为素材来讲无可挑剔！等我回到现实一定要整理出来发布！
YelenaI'm glad I could help. So, is this the end of the interview?能够帮助到你就好。那么采访就到这里？
Yelena gets up and prepares to leave.叶莲娜起身，准备结束采访。
WillowOh right, I've got one more question... though it's not in my capacity as a reporter. Do you regret making that promise?对了，我有一个……不是记者提出的问题，叶莲娜会后悔吗，对于这个约定？
YelenaWell, I was immature back then and didn't approach fortune-telling seriously.当初的我确实太不成熟了，从未认真地去触摸过占卜。
YelenaSo I accept this outcome, and I have never regretted it.所以我认同了这个结果，也不曾后悔过。
WillowBut don't you think it's a bit of a waste?但是这样不是很可惜吗？
YelenaI do think it's a bit sad, but a promise is a promise.确实有一些遗憾呢，不过约定就是约定。
Yelena shakes her head.叶莲娜摇了摇头。
ProfessorSo, after all this time, what do you think fortune-telling is, Yelena?那么经过这么长时间，现在叶莲娜对于占卜是什么看法呢？
YelenaHuh?诶？
ProfessorI want to hear your answer.我想听听现在叶莲娜的回答。
YelenaRight now... Well, the process of fortune-telling is the building of a bridge between the diviner and the client, and the result of fortune-telling is a medium to give the client strength, courage, hope, and open their eyes to new possibilities.现在的我……占卜的过程是占卜师和被占卜人羁绊的桥梁，而占卜的结果是给予被占卜人，力量，勇气，希望以及可能性的媒介。
YelenaPerhaps that is my answer right now.这或许就是我现在的答案吧。
WillowWow! That's a great answer. This is some headline material...诶！这个答案好，可以作为标题……
ProfessorSo, are you ready to begin fortune-telling again, Yelena?那么，要重新开始占卜吗？叶莲娜？
YelenaI... I still have my work with Lam to do...我……还有和拉姆的工作……
ProfessorThe Oasis has not and will never force anyone to do work they don't want to do.绿洲从来不会要求任何人形强制进行任何的工作。
LamAfter Dolls are uploaded to Magrasea, the system chooses the neural projection that best reflects their frame of mind.人形上传到麦戈拉后，系统会选择人形心智中最重视的心智投影。
LamAnd this outfit of yours says everything.而你的这一身衣服，已经说明了一切了。
Yelena...But I still have my promise...……但是，我还有约定……
YelenaEr... Don't you think that's kind of a stretch...诶……这理由是不是有一点牵强……
YelenaAh... Well, even if you ARE a professional in the field, when you use a specialized electronic capsule without calibrating it...这个……就算教授是这方面的专家，在没有校对专用的电子舱的情况下……
The promise you and Luna made was in reality, wasn't it? We're in the cloud server now. Bets in real life are off here.你和月光定下的约定，是在现实中吧。现在是在云端哦，在现实中的赌约可不适用了哦。
In my professional opinion, I think Yelena can pass the baseline test.作为专家，我认为叶莲娜已经可以通过基准线测试了。
I shake my head.我摇了摇头。
ProfessorIf you're not happy with that answer... then Yelena, reply to my next question within 0.001 seconds.如果叶莲娜对这个解释不满的话……那么叶莲娜，请在0.001秒内回答我的问题。
ProfessorDo you want to do fortune-telling?你想要占卜吗？
YelenaI do... Ugh.想……唔。
ProfessorThat's enough for me.这就足够了。
YelenaI...我……
ProfessorDon't you think so? Miss Fortune-Teller, who just arrived at the Oasis and who's been listening at the door all day?你说是吧？在门口偷听了半天，刚刚抵达绿洲的占卜师小姐？
I walk up to the control panel and press a button, and the door to the examination room suddenly opens.我走到控制台附近，按下了一个按钮，检定室的大门立刻打开。
??Uwaaahhh!哇啊啊！
Suddenly deprived of the door's support, a golden-haired girl falls through the threshold and falls face-first with a thump at my feet.一个金色的身影，因为失去大门的支撑，噗通一下摔倒在了我们的面前。
??Owowowow... Ack... how did you know I was at the door? Are you a fortune-teller too?痛痛痛……呜……你是怎么知道我在门口的，你也会占卜吗？
Luna climbs up, mildly annoyed.月光有些不满地从地上爬了起来。
LunaOh come on, I don't need to be a fortune-teller to know you're lying!这句话不用占卜也能听出来你是在骗人啦！
LunaHuh? Tools?诶？工具？
It is only then that Luna realizes that the little screen on the control panel is showing a view of the door.这时候月光才注意到控制台上的小屏幕显示着门口的场景。
Oh yes, I can see the future.是哦，我有预测未来的能力。
I'm no fortune-teller, but I'm a tool-user.虽然我不会占卜，但是我擅长利用工具哦。
LunaAh... I got careless.啊……大意了。
ProfessorAlright, alright, after eavesdropping for so long, are you satisfied with Yelena's answer, Miss Wandering Fortune-Teller?好了好了，既然偷听了这么久，那么你对叶莲娜的回答满意吗？流浪的占卜师？
Luna looks at Yelena, who still seems a little dumbfounded.月光看着有些呆滞的叶莲娜。
LunaPffft, I hardly ever get to see you this flustered!噗，难得看到你这么慌乱的表情呢。
YelenaLuna...月光……
LunaHmhm, let me think...哼哼，让我想想啊……
Yelena rubs her palms and then stares at Luna.叶莲娜攥着手心，紧紧地盯着月光。
LunaHehehe...嘿嘿嘿……
Luna takes a tarot card from her pocket and grabs Yelena's hand before placing the card in her palms.月光从口袋里拿出了一张塔罗牌，抓住了叶莲娜的手，将塔罗牌放在她的手心。
LunaMy answer is the same as the Professor's.我的答案和教授说的一模一样。
LunaWelcome back to the world of fortune-telling, Yelena.欢迎回到占卜的世界，叶莲娜。
