Sorry, Barbara, I was too busy.” Orpheus pinched the forehead: Like this was good, I should almost to arrive home, after wait for me comes back, you get off work.” “哦……对不起,芭拉,我太忙了。”奥菲捏了捏眉心:“这样好了,我应该差不多要到家了,等我回来之后,你就下班吧。” Mister, do I need to give you to prepare the dinner?” “先生,我需要给你准备晚饭吗?” no, thanks, I am not hungry. You tidy up, wait for me came back you to walk.” Orpheus spoke thoughtlessly told, then also asked Louise's situation. 不用了,我不饿。你收拾一下吧,等我回来你就可以走了。”奥菲随口地吩咐了一下,然后又问起了路易斯的情况。 What the child sends to is the full-time school, usually is staying, only then has a vacation the ability to go home.

Orpheus entered Louise's room quietly, has not turned on the light, the ray that but brings taking advantage of the light of corridor, before arriving at the bed . 一路上楼,然后来到了儿子路易斯的房间。奥菲静悄悄地进了路易斯的房间,也没有开灯,只是借着走廊的灯光带来的光线,来到了床前。 He lowered the head to kiss a forehead that slept soundly the son, then received the quilt child's arm, actually in touched anything from the quilt. 他低头亲吻了一下熟睡中儿子的额头,然后把孩子的手臂收入了被子当中,却从被子里里面摸到了什么。 Orpheus takes out looks, is a picture frame. 奥菲取出一看,是一个相框。 The Orpheus look is somewhat complex, finally sighed, placed on the picture frame the nightstand, closes to leave, went down building- here residential district had restored the circular telegram. 奥菲神色有些复杂,最后叹了口气,把相框放在了床头柜上,才又关了门离开,走下了楼-这边的住宅区已经恢复了通电了。 Orpheus took out the air/Qi to soak in water from the refrigerator, muttered that two drank most probably, he planned that took a bath, but heard sound at this time- the door of house was opened by whom. 奥菲从冰箱取出了一直气泡水,咕哝两声就喝了大半,他打算去洗澡了,但此时听到了动静-房子的门被谁打开了。 He knit the brows to arrive at the position of living room. 他皱眉来到了客厅的位置。 Saw only person's shadow staggering to walk together came in...... in the hand to take one bottle to drink the most liquor water, then the whole person sat in the entrance threshold to buddhism directly changed the place of shoes, drunken appearance. 只见一道踉踉跄跄的人影走了进来……手上拿着一瓶喝了大半的酒水,然后整个人直接就坐在了门口玄关换鞋子的地方,醉醺醺的样子。 This person impressively is Dr. Ferranqi. 这人赫然是费兰奇博士。 How do you come back?” Orpheus arrived at Dr. Ferranqi, but plan that does not seem to help up him to come, is standing like this. “你是怎么回来的?”奥菲走到了费兰奇博士的跟前,但似乎没有扶起他来的打算,就这样站着。 Dr. Ferranqi hears the sound, raised the head, the eye partly opens the semi-closure, seems dim. Dr. Ferranqi hit the liquor belch, Orpheus............ you come back......” 费兰奇博士听到声音,抬起头来,眼睛半睁半闭,似乎朦胧。费兰奇博士打了个酒嗝,“奥菲……哦……你回来……” Saying, Dr. Ferranqi then holds the wall, stood up difficultly the body, but lost all of a sudden balanced, must throw to shortly on the ground. Orpheus wrinkled frowns, puts out a hand to block, then entrained the sofa place of living room directly. 说着,费兰奇博士便扶着墙壁,艰难地站起了身来,但一下子就失去了平衡,眼看就要扑到在地上。奥菲皱了皱眉头,伸手拦着,接着就直接把人拽到了客厅的沙发处。 He advanced on Dr. Ferranqi the sofa directly, has a look at your appearance! The school suspended classes, Barbara met Louise! Therefore, removes your liquor air/Qi a bit faster, I do not think that Louise thought oneself grandfather is a male drunkard!” 他把费兰奇博士直接推到了沙发上,“看看你的样子!学校停课了,芭拉把路易斯接回来了!所以,快点把你的酒气去掉,我不想路易斯觉得自己的爷爷是一个醉汉!” Has flash that Dr. Ferranqi seemed like the body stiffly, but quick stands up from failure, lay down on the sofa directly closed the eye, rested. 有那么一瞬间,费兰奇博士似乎身体僵硬了一下,但很快就翻了个身,直接躺在沙发上闭上了眼睛,睡了过去。 Orpheus clenches teeth, seems a flame of anger to get up, is actually not able to vent. He is walking slowly and aimlessly back and forth the step in the living room, walked fast, his both hands makes an effort to wipe finally the face, sat all of a sudden. 奥菲咬了咬牙,似有股无名火起,却无从发泄。他在客厅之中来回地踱着步子,走得飞快,最后他双手用力地抹了把脸,才又一下子坐了下来。 The single-seat sofa and couch are away from distance of one arm, he takes a look at Dr. Ferranqi who the liquor air/Qi is soaring to the heavens like this. He knows that this old man has not really gone off. 单人沙发和长沙发隔着不过一手臂的距离,他就这样打量着酒气冲天的费兰奇博士。他知道这老头子并没有真的睡去。 The day before yesterday, you saw Billy in the theater, for what?” Orpheus frowns asked. “前天,你在剧院见比利,是为了什么?”奥菲皱着眉头问了起来。 His in the heart had somewhat guessed indeed so, but he wants to hear Dr. Ferranqi reply with one's own ears. But doctor at this time does not have the sound, resembled to sleep soundly. 尽然他心中已经有些猜测,但他还是想要亲耳听到费兰奇博士的回答。但博士这时候还是没有动静,似是已经酣睡了过去。 Orpheus wiped a face, actually you did not say, I can also guess correctly. Now this government will not draw cash to support your project again, at least within near these years cannot. Billy does he, have to plan to subsidize you? Good, if really can launch one to be our satellites, really has very tremendous effect on the future situation.” 奥菲又抹了一把脸,“其实你不说,我也能猜到一点。现在这个政府是不会再拿钱出支持你那个项目的,至少近这几年之内都不会。比利他,是有打算资助你吧?不错,如果真的能够发射一颗属于我们自己的卫星,对于未来的局势确实有很大的影响。” The doctor transmitted sound that has the snoring. 博士传来了打呼噜的声音。 Orpheus sneered, „, looks at you now this appearance, was denied entrance from Billy there probably? Now speaker of the senate died, each faction must reshuffle. The case of theater, lets this leadership green butts difficult volume, this regarding out of office these fellows, is really a very good opportunity. You lose heart, will have this opportunity, Billy will not invest so much funds on you temporarily. You do not have how patriotically, pastes others cold buttocks that these politicians look with all one's heart!” 奥菲冷笑了一声,“哼,看你现在这个样子,大概是从比利那里吃了闭门羹了吧?现在参议长死了,各个派系要重新洗牌。还有剧院的案子,让这一届的领导焦头难额,这对于在野的那些家伙来说,实在是一个很好的机会。你死心吧,有了这个机会,比利暂时是不会在你身上投入大量的资金。你别把那些政客看的有多么的爱国,一门心思地去贴人家的冷屁股!” The doctor hit the sound of snoring to be as if heavier. 博士打呼噜的声音似乎更重了一些。 Orpheus implored the one breath layer on layer/heavily, the whole person by the seat back cushion of sofa, looks at ceiling, silent for a long time, slowly typical: I know that is your dream. However......, but we after all are only the mortals, something truly cannot achieve, that gives up. Lets off itself, lets off others. In the past...... you acted willfully to conduct the firing trial the words, will not have that matter.” 奥菲重重地吁了一口气,整个人靠在了沙发的靠背上,看着天花板,沉默了许久,才缓缓地道:“我知道,那是你的梦想。但是……但是我们毕竟只是凡人,有些事情确实做不到,那就放弃吧。放过自己,也是放过别人。当年……要不是你一意孤行要进行发射试验的话,也就不会发生那种事情。” Snoring sound all of a sudden light. 呼噜声一下子轻了下来。 Louise asked me each time, where mother went, I have not told him the truth......” Orpheus to look at the back of Dr. Ferranqi, bitter and astringent say/way: You said how I can tell him? Said his mother, your student, my wife, because acting arbitrarily and tenacity of oneself grandfather, in has not obtained all security data in the situations the strong request to launch the unstable rocket, finally created entire......” “路易斯每次问我,妈妈去什么地方,我都没有告诉他真相……”奥菲看着费兰奇博士的背影,苦涩道:“你说我能怎么跟他说?说他的妈妈,你的学生,我的妻子,因为自己爷爷的独断专行和固执,在还没有取得所有安全数据的情况下强烈要求发射不稳定的火箭,最后造成了整个……” Ok!” Orpheus stood suddenly, you have rested in your dream, do not wake up...... in any case so many years, I also already being accustomed to. However I asked you, you studied anything are your matter, but you should better not to mix this power in the middle of the vortex. Your age is big, words that wants to retire, momentarily.” “算了!”奥菲猛然站了起来,“你就一直睡在自己的梦里,不要醒来吧……反正这么多年,我也已经习惯了。但是我拜托你,你研究什么是你的事情,可你最好不要掺合进来这个权力的漩涡当中。你年纪已经不小了,想要退休的话,随时都可以。” I take a bath, wait also to go back. Recently the matter were many, the president issued the dead order......” Orpheus to walk toward the building, school had a vacation over the two days, Louise at home, you, if had the time to accompany his. If no time, I will make Barbara come earlier, this...... good night.” “我去洗个澡,等会还要回去。最近事情多,总统下了死命令……”奥菲朝着楼上走去,“学校这两天放假,路易斯在家,你要是有时间的话就陪他一下。要是没有时间的话,我会让芭拉早点过来,就这吧……晚安。” The sound of footsteps of going upstairs gradually goes far away, the living room kept a wall lamp. 上楼的脚步声逐渐远去,客厅只是留了一盏壁灯。 He looks like that to roam about the outlier in street, rolls up on the sofa. 他就像是那流浪在街头的露宿者般,蜷缩在沙发上。 Suddenly, the doctor drew the cushion, covered in own head, making this world turn into the darkness thoroughly. 忽然,博士把坐垫拉了出来,盖在了自己的头上,让这个世界彻底地变成了黑暗。
