他们都是在政府、王室或议院拥有广泛影响力的人物,这个委员会最终做出的报告,将成为预定的《反污染法案》《烟气减排法案》最重要的依据。

主打无烟煤和木炭的考伊姆公司正是要推动并加快这个进展,让那些老迈但庞大的竞争者来不及转型。„Theirparsimoniousgold pound, definitelywill definitely not lobbytheseheavyweightcongressmen, disturbsourinvestigationsbythis, wemusthave the explicitresponse, saidjust asMr.Hibbert Hall is the same, wemustgrasp the public opinion, making the newspaper and magazinepublicize the hazepollutionrepeatedlyfearful......”Lukeis the Kaumsenior executive, ismajor stockholderMarygrasps the importantassistant in company, buthe is also quite able.
“他们肯定不会吝啬金镑,肯定会游说那些重量级的议员,以此干扰我们的调查,我们必须有明确的应对方案,正像希伯特.霍尔先生说得一样,我们要掌握舆论,让报纸和杂志反复地宣扬烟气污染的可怕……”卢克是考伊姆的资深经理,是大股东玛丽掌握公司的重要助手,而他本身也相当有能力。Chatted, Lukenoticedownwifeto sitinsidesuddenlydoes not say a word, likelosingsoul.
闲聊之间,卢克忽然注意到自己的妻子坐在旁边却一言不发,就像失去了灵魂。„Starling, what happened?”Lukeaskedkindly.
“斯塔琳,发生了什么事情吗?”卢克关切地问道。Starlingrecovers, squeezes the smile:斯塔琳回过神来,挤出笑容道:„No, wassomewhatexhausted.”
“没什么,就是有些疲惫了。”„Yes, sawso manyinfluential figure, yourspirithighlyhas been definitely tight, nowfinallycanrelax, exhaustedis very normalmatter, actually, Iam also same.”Lukesmilesto say with a smile.
“是啊,见了那么多大人物,你的精神肯定一直高度紧绷,现在终于能放松下来,疲惫是很正常的事情,其实,我也一样。”卢克笑笑道。Starlinghas not responded tohim, butlookedtoout of the window, lookedhas the park in laketothat.斯塔琳没有回应他,而是怔怔望向了窗外,望向了那有着湖泊的公园。

“一只训练有素的猎犬,价格在450到700镑之间。”............

再有1-2,应该就能出去了……总是待在这样的环境里,真是憋得慌……隔壁那位前探索小队队长,被关了足足四十二年,竟然还很清醒很理智,换做是我,肯定已经疯了……不过,他讲的那些探索事迹和奇异怪物,倒是很吸引人,甚至有些可怕……戴里克坐在床沿,望着已烧到了尽头的蜡烛。

这样的变化转瞬即逝,戴里克收回注意力,下意识默数起心跳。Howeverhesoondiscovered that thisisunnecessary, becausehiscurrentconditionbelongsto live alone, does not needto avoid others.
不过他很快发现这是没有必要的,因为他目前的状态属于独处,不需要避开其他人。No longerDerrick of silently countingheartbeatthought of an issuequickly:
不再默数心跳的戴里克很快想到了一个问题:That is placing oneselfin the roundtowerbottomthatmagical itemsealrange, Mister Foolfollowingpulling peopleenters the above the grey mistactionto be ablethereforeto be discovered, was detected?
那就是自己正置身于圆塔底部那件神奇物品的封印范围内,“愚者”先生后续拉人进入灰雾之上的举动会不会因此被发现,被察觉?Thisisinseveraldangers, letsone of twomagical itemSilver Cityhas not destroyedthoroughly!
这可是在几次危难里,让白银城没有彻底毁灭的两件神奇物品之一!

忐忑和不安之中,始终未能做出决定的戴里克看见虚空里涌出了无边无际的深红光芒,看见它们只是一个奔腾,就将自己淹没。Innarrow and smallcloseroom a peace, breathingweakto the extreme.
狭小封闭的房间内一片安静,就连呼吸声都微弱到了极点。Suddenly, is separatedDerrickbeforethatexplored the squadcaptainmetalwallto send out a dǔlightsound.

…………FinishedAudrey of business lunchpracticingto meet the piano, pinched the timeto returntowardownbedroom.
结束掉午餐会的奥黛丽练习了会钢琴,掐着时间往自己的卧室返回。
When passed byher fatherEarl Hallstudy room, shesaw the doorajar, on the tableis placingonepack of thickdocuments.
路过她父亲霍尔伯爵的书房时,她看见房门半掩,桌上摆放着一叠厚厚的文件。„Beforeno......” the Audreycuriositygets up, slows down the footsteps, signals with the eyestogolden hairbig dogSusie.
“之前没有的……”奥黛丽好奇心起,放慢脚步,对金毛大狗苏茜使了个眼色。
Becoming AudienceSusie, every so oftenonlyneeds a pointverysmallsuggestion, canunderstand that the masterwantsto be madeanythingbyoneself, naturally, itwill also pretendnot to understandoccasionally, is only willingto lie downmotionless.
成为“观众”的苏茜,很多时候只需要一点很小的暗示,就能明白主人想让自己做什么,当然,它偶尔也会假装没弄懂,只愿意躺着不动。Receives the cipherSusie, silentslightlyran, sneaked into the study room, thenfound outtwolead legs, supportedin the tableedge, stood erect.
收到暗号的苏茜,无声小跑,溜进了书房,然后探出两条前腿,撑在桌子边缘,直立了起来。Itlooked athome page one of the thatpack of documentsfast, returns tosideAudrey, pulls down the throatsound said:
它快速瞄了那叠文件的首页一眼,返回奥黛丽身旁,压低嗓音道:„eastern district, dock districtandvariousfactory districtclassliving conditioninvestigations.”
“东区、码头区和工厂区各阶层生活状况调查。”„Audrey, what is this?”
“奥黛丽,这是什么意思啊?”eastern district, dock districtandvariousfactory districtclassliving conditioninvestigations? Why will the fatherdothisinvestigationsuddenly? Iremember that Ihave not raisedsimilarmattertohim...... Audreydoubts, could not have attended toanswering the Susieissue.东区、码头区和工厂区各阶层生活状况调查?爸爸为什么会突然做这个调查?我记得我没有对他提过类似的事情啊……奥黛丽一阵疑惑,没顾得上回答苏茜的问题。Shelooks all around, sees the servantsrespectivelyineveryone, has not paid attention to itselfspecially, therefore, lifts the head, naturallyturned aroundto enter the Earl Hallstudy roomcalmly.
她环顾四周,见仆人们各在各位,并未特别注意自己,于是,微抬脑袋,镇定自然地转身进入了霍尔伯爵的书房。Arrives by the desk, Audreylowered the headto looktothatreport, discovered the titletruly the consistencywithSusiedescription.
来到书桌旁,奥黛丽低头望向了那份调查报告,发现标题确实与苏茜描述的一致。Un, isdocument that the typewriterhits, the investigators is a reporternamedMike Joseph, does underhaveGoddesssacred emblem...... thisis the Goddesschurchtrusteedoes? Whycanprobablygive the fatherone? Isn't the father the Goddessfollower, churchwantsto makehimgivecertainsupportatthismatter? Thiswas the good deed...... Audreymade the preliminaryjudgment.
嗯,是打字机打出来的文件,调查人员是一个叫做迈克.约瑟夫的记者,下方有女神的圣徽……这是女神教会委托人做的?可为什么要给爸爸一份?唔,爸爸是女神的信徒,教会想让他在这件事情上给予一定的支持?这是好事啊……奥黛丽做出了初步的判断。Heralsoinvitedpersonmade the idea of similarinvestigation, butthought that thisdoes not conform tooneselfin secretguidance the intention, is very easyto showhas the feeling, was no longer neglectedbyotheraristocrats, thereforehas hesitatedhas not been attempting.
她原本也有请人做类似调查的想法,但又觉得这不符合自身暗中引导的意图,很容易彰显存在感,不再被其他贵族忽视,所以一直犹豫着没去尝试。Audreyputs out a handto flip the document, discoversabout the report of eastern district, dock districtandfactory districtnot, only thenMike Joseph that manypeoplemade on -the-spot investigationfrom the differentangles.奥黛丽伸手翻了翻文件,发现关于东区、码头区和工厂区的报告不只有迈克.约瑟夫那一份,还有不少人从不同的角度做出了实地调查。Andseveralevenalsomentioned the dissemination of evil cult, colluding of someExtraordinaryandcriminal syndicate.
其中好几份甚至还提到了邪教的散播,部分非凡者与黑帮的勾结。Hū...... Audreyto look atwall clock in the study room, sawhas been close tothreepoints, thengave up the plan of careful reading, file recoveryoriginal condition.
呼……奥黛丽看了眼书房内的挂钟,见已接近三点,遂放弃仔细阅读的打算,将文件恢复了原状。

出门之前,她随手抽了本图书,把它伪装成了进来的目的。............
…………
At exactly 3 : 00, the knocking of wall clockduring the reverberation, Audreyinthatdark redillusoryray, still has appearedin the palatialgrandpalace, appearedin the ancientlongtableflank.
三点整,挂钟的敲击声还在回荡之中,奥黛丽已于那深红虚幻的光芒里,出现在了巍峨雄伟的宫殿内,出现在了古老长桌的侧方。Sheoutlined the smile, set outto saluteto say to most:
她勾勒微笑,起身向最上首行礼道:„Good afternoon, Mister Fool~”
“下午好,‘愚者’先生~”
After gentlynodded the headresponse, shealsosent regardsrespectivelyHanged Man, World, Magicianand the others, anddiscoveredkeenlySun is a little as if anxious.
得到轻轻颔首的回应后,她又分别问候了“倒吊人”“世界”“魔术师”等人,并敏锐地发现“太阳”似乎有点不安。„What are youworried about?”Audreymakes noiseto ask.
“你在担心什么?”奥黛丽出声问道。Thisletsalsosee that little SunconditionincorrectKleindoes not needto open the mouthagain.
这让同样看出小“太阳”状态不对的克莱恩无需再自己开口。He who ahead of timeentersthismysteriousspace, tidies upitem that the desktopplacedslightly, lostinArdscopper whistle, Biological Toxin BottleandSpiritual Religion Societycopper whistleand otherthings the corner, andcoverswithrichgrey mistthoroughly.
提前进入这片神秘空间的他,稍微收拾了桌面摆放的物品,将阿兹克铜哨、生物毒素瓶、灵教团铜哨等东西丢到了角落里,并用浓郁的灰雾彻底掩盖。Now, on the desktop before hisbodyis only coveringDark Emperor Card.
如今,他身前的桌面上只盖着一张“黑皇帝”牌。Thisismatches the Foolstatussufficientlyitem!
这是足以匹配“愚者”身份的物品!Derrick the Sunhas not concealed, immediately„feigning illness”success, was delivered to itself the roundtowerbottomisolationtreatment the matterto speakcompletely, endasking:“太阳”戴里克没有隐瞒,当即把自己“装病”成功,被送到圆塔底部隔离治疗的事情完完整整讲了一遍,末了问道:„esteemedMister Fool, thatmagical itemwill discover that Iam participating inTarot Society?”
“尊敬的‘愚者’先生,那件神奇物品会发现我在参加塔罗会吗?”HowIknow that...... myitis anything not clear......, but, has noor the strangeorpowerfulstrengthtemporarilytriesto invade......, evenEternal Blazing SunandTrue Creatorcannotfindhere...... the Kleinfingerto tap the bronzelongtableedge, a school„relaxed”replied:
我怎么知道……我连它是什么东西都不清楚……不过,暂时没有什么或诡异或强大的力量试图入侵……嗯,连“永恒烈阳”和“真实造物主”都没能找到这里……克莱恩手指轻敲青铜长桌边缘,一派“轻松”地回答道:„Normal, itcould not discover.”
“正常来说,它发现不了。”„Butcertainmagical itemhave the unusualeffect.”
“但某些神奇物品具备奇特的效果。”SawMister Foolto give the affirmativeanswer, Derrickfelt relievedimmediatelymuch, heun a sound said:
见“愚者”先生给出肯定的答复,戴里克顿时放心了不少,他嗯了一声道:„Ido not know that ithas any unusualeffect.”
“我也不知道它有什么奇特效果。”„Thisis one of the Silver Citytop secrets.”
“这是白银城最高机密之一。”At this point, before heremembered that suddenlyexplores a squadcaptainlecture of matter, blurtsto ask:
说到这里,他忽然想起了那位前探索小队队长讲的事情,脱口问道:„Have youheardAmonthisperson?”
“你们有听说过阿蒙这个人吗?”Amon? Kleinslightlymade the thinkingto recall the origin of familiarity.阿蒙?克莱恩略作思索就记起了熟悉感的来源。Buthedoes not haveanxiously the reply, butwill look atHanged Man, hisveryclearthisChurch of the Stormsintermediate levelalsoknows„Amon”, moreoverperhapsunderstandmany, similarly, Audrey the JusticealsolookedtoHanged Man, herprevioustimeheard that thisname, wasfromopposite partythere.
但他没急着回答,而是将目光投向了“倒吊人”,他很清楚这位风暴教会的中层也知道“阿蒙”,而且说不定比自己了解得更多,同样地,“正义”奥黛丽也看向了“倒吊人”,她上次听说这个姓名,正是从对方那里。Forsi the Magicianbewilderedis listening, alwaysfeltmatter that herediscussedbeyondownknowledgerange.“魔术师”佛尔思一脸茫然地听着,总觉得这里讨论的事情在自己的知识范围外。Argel the Hanged Manfrowns, the doubtsasked backpuzzled:“倒吊人”阿尔杰则皱起了眉头,疑惑不解地反问道:„Your did Silver Cityin the process of explorationperipheralregion, meetoneto say the Amon’sperson?”
“你们白银城在探索周边区域的过程里,遇到了一个自称阿蒙的人?”„Or, discoveredsimilarrecord?”
“或者,发现了类似的记载?”Derrick the Sunnodsto sayearnestly:“太阳”戴里克认真点头道:„Yes, before 42 years, there is an explorationsquadto meetoneto say the Amon’spersonindepths of darkness, after returning toSilver City, theywent crazyone after anotherout-of-control, was only left overone, was closedbottom of the roundtower, inmynext door.”
“是的,四十二年前,有支探索小队在黑暗深处遇到了一个自称阿蒙的人,返回白银城后,他们相继发疯失控,只剩下一位,被关在了圆塔底部,就在,就在我隔壁。”„Perhaps, hewas also insane, thatwas only the conjecture......”Forsi the Magicianproposed a guesswith the richnovel-writingexperience.
“也许,他也疯了,那只是臆想……”“魔术师”佛尔思以丰富的小说创作经验提出了一个猜测。Argel the Hanged Manlooked on mostMister Fool one of the head, seeingItis calm and steady, has not doneany indicated that therefore the couragewas sayinggreatly:“倒吊人”阿尔杰望了最上首的“愚者”先生一眼,见祂安稳淡然,没做任何表示,于是大着胆子说道:„Conjectureis a possibility, butwill not have the reasonto find out‚Amon’thisname.”
“臆想是一个可能,但不会没有原因就想出‘阿蒙’这个姓名。”Heleansto look that saidtoSun:
他侧头看向“太阳”道:„Infourth era, the volume, before1500 of ourstate, orwas remote, oncehad such a family that is grasping the strangestrength, theybelonged toTudor Dynasty, surnameAmon.”
“在第四纪,额,在我们所处国度的一千五百年前,或者更久远,曾经有这么一个掌握着诡异力量的家族,他们属于图铎王朝,姓氏正是阿蒙。”„Even ifinthathigh sequenceexpertnumerousages, thisfamily'ssurname is also a taboo.”
“哪怕在那个高序列强者众多的年代,这个家族的姓氏也是一个禁忌。”PS: Mondayasked the recommendationticketandmonthly ticket~
