Morgue. 停尸房。 Under pale yellow light. 昏黄的灯光下。 A black bear strong man, lies before the ice-cold wooden bed weeps. 一个狗熊般强壮的男人,趴在冰冷的木床前啜泣。 „Elsa, opens eyes to have a look at me...” Dodd lies side the young girl, holds her face, is arriving at her forehead. “爱莎,睁开眼看看我吧…”陶德趴在少女身边,捧着她的脸,抵着她的额头。 First, he confirmed the status of opposite party, with the face of her mother Colin striking resemblance to is the most direct evidence. 第一眼,他就确认了对方的身份,和她母亲科琳酷肖的面庞就是最直接的证据。 „I am a coward and criminal, the irresponsible man, more than ten years has not come to see you, I do not match to be the father.” “我是个懦夫、罪人,不负责的男人,十多年没来看你们,我不配做父亲。” „But please give me an opportunity to make reparations,” Dodd near the ice-cold young girl ear, the tone transfers gently firmly, „makes me revenge for you!” “但请给我个机会赎罪,”陶德在冰冷的少女耳边,语气轻柔转为坚定,“让我替你报仇！” „Sorry... to hold the murderer... needs you to help later.” “但很抱歉…为了抓住凶手…待会儿需要你帮帮忙。” ... … „Is the Elsa present condition, actually dies lives?” “爱莎现在的状态,究竟是死是活？” By big fellow, the Roy eyebrow twists one group, after the sketchy inspection, he discovered that the opposite party does not have the breath and heartbeat, pupil spreads completely, the body temperature lowers scary, looking from these aspects, the girl conclusively without doubt is a deceased person. 大汉旁边,罗伊眉毛绞成一团,在粗略的检查过后,他发现对方没有呼吸和心跳,瞳孔完全扩散,体温低得吓人,从这些方面看,女孩儿确凿无疑地是个死人。 But her certain symptoms are also entirely different from the dead. 但她某些体征却又与死者截然不同。 blonde has the gloss very much, not like deceased person that withered, dry, the skin is smooth, does not have the swollen phenomenon, should not have the internal hemorrhage. 金发很有光泽,不像死人那么枯槁,干燥,皮肤光滑细腻,不存在浮肿的现象,应该没有内出血。 The whole body could not find the conspicuous scar, let alone sufficiently wound until death. Except that the hands and feet skin works hard the callus who excessively leaves behind, this conforms to the poor family background. 浑身找不到显眼的疤痕,更别说足以至死的伤口。除了手脚皮肤操劳过度留下的老茧,这符合贫穷的出身。 The ankle area place wraps the bell, an under foot No. 13 wooden bed edge cause of death column is also emptying. 脚踝处套着铃铛,脚下十三号木床边缘死因一栏还空着。 Coroner cannot discover her cause of death, or hasn't inspected with enough time? 验尸官并没能找出她的死因,或者还没来得及检查？ „By the Energy of Chaos encirclement...” “被混沌能量环绕…” Perhaps Energy of Chaos makes her mortal body over the time not rotten, maintains fresh/live, and before death beauty. 也许正是混沌能量让她的肉身不随时间腐烂,保持住鲜活、和生前的美丽。 But now she is peaceful seems the sleeping beauty, will never revolt against all. 而现在她安静得好似睡美人,不会也不能反抗外界的一切。 Then now the issue is, Elsa corpse from anyone , from where belt/bring to morgue? 那么现在问题是,爱莎的尸体是由谁,在什么时间,从何处带到停尸房的？ Seeks out the issue the answer, perhaps, they can follow up a clue, found in the dreamland lead of that murderer. 找出问题的答案,也许,他们就能顺藤摸瓜,找到梦境中那个凶手的线索。 In addition, Coroner and assistant dead shape terrifying, is whether related with Elsa, is the pure coincidence? 此外,验尸官和助手死状骇人,是否也与爱莎有关,还是单纯的巧合？ „Did you see her?” “您看到她了？” Arrives at Roy humpbacked quietly behind, looks at the dead under plain white cloth, sighs woefully, „was a pity very much, how pretty clever girl, but also without enjoys the happiness of this world with enough time, died young.” 驼背悄悄来到罗伊身后,看着白布下的死者,哀叹,“很可惜吧,多么漂亮乖巧的女孩,还没来得及享受这个世界的美好,这么年轻就死掉了。” Quasimodo has not concealed regretting on face slightly, 卡西莫多丝毫没掩饰脸上的惋惜, „She should not belong to this gloomy bloody place from the start. Also does not know that which fellow suppresses under the heart.” “她压根不该属于这种阴暗血腥的地方。也不知道哪个家伙狠得下心。” Witcher turns around suddenly, the sharp vision looks straight ahead Quasimodo's eyes, „I almost forget your labor of duty. You have been shouldering responsibility that gathers up dead bodies the person.” 猎魔人豁然转身,尖锐的目光直视卡西莫多的双眼,“我差点忘记你的本职工作。你一直担负着收尸人的职责吧。” „You said right, I recycle the entire Novigrad corpse, transports/fortunes them to this morgue. This girl is also I brings.” “您说的没错,我回收整个诺维格瑞的尸体,将他们运到这个太平间。这个女孩儿也是我带回来的。” „When are you, she who where discovers?” “你是什么时间,在哪儿发现的她？” „Eh...” Humpbacked paused, on the face obviously hesitates, he thought that front this young police deputy curiosity is too rather heavy, „does your issue have the relations with Coroner your excellency case?” “额…”驼背顿了顿,脸上明显犹豫,他觉得面前这位年轻的治安队员好奇心未免太重,“您的问题跟验尸官阁下的案子有关系吗？” Witcher is staring at the opposite party, when humpbacked look Glimmer, a hand rapid has delimited in him at present, the five fingers put on the variegated butterfly to dance in the air, outlined Axii Sign instantaneously, 猎魔人盯着对方,当驼背眼神闪烁时,一只手迅速在他眼前划过,五指穿花蝴蝶般飞舞,瞬间勾勒出亚克席法印, „Coroner and assistant, as well as does the death of Elsa, whether there is relate with you?” “验尸官、助手,以及爱莎之死,跟你有无关系？” „No.” “没有。” Roy somewhat is unconsciously disappointed, „immediately tells me related to all her.” 罗伊不觉有些失望,“立刻告诉我有关她的一切。” ...... …… Quasimodo lowers the head, the abnormal body swung swinging, is in trance replies, 卡西莫多垂下了头,畸形的身体摇了摇,神情恍惚地回答, „Three days ago evening, I obtained a news north area merchant to be robbed to kill, overtook for him gathers up dead bodies. Transports on the way of the corpse, I discovered her.” “大前天的傍晚,我得到消息北区一位商人被人抢劫杀害,就赶过去为他收尸。运送尸体途中,我发现了她。” Referred to Elsa humpbacked, „lies down the green by path plants cluster inside, I most start also to think that this young lady is drunk, or was knocked down... to shout several she has not responded, I approach to inspect, discovered that she does not have the breath and heartbeat she dies.” 驼背指了指爱莎,“躺在道路旁边的绿植丛里,我最开始还以为这位小姐喝醉了酒,或者被人打晕了过去…喊了好几声她都没有回应,我靠近过去检查,才发现她已经没有了呼吸和心跳她死了。” „After and other public security officers conducted the preliminary survey to the scene, I her shipped back the morgue, gives Coroner your excellency and others he to verify the concrete cause of death, I left.” “等治安官到现场进行了初步的勘测后,我就把她运回了停尸房,交给验尸官阁下等他查明具体死因,我就离开了。” ...... …… Roy opened the eye suddenly. 罗伊突然睁大了眼睛。 Three days ago in the evening, this time point. Was not Coroner and assistant is happen to discovered the day before the death. 大前天傍晚,这个时间点。不正好就是验尸官和助手被发现死亡的前一天。 Elsa was brought back to the morgue, Coroner and assistant who later both dies a violent death were discovered in early morning, two events almost next to the same place! 爱莎被带回太平间,随后双双暴毙的验尸官和助手在清晨被人发现,两起事件几乎紧挨在一起！ „You discovered dead time, is she now this appearance? Has the differences?” “你发现死者的时候,她就是现在这个样子？有没有不同之处？” Quasimodo shakes the head, 卡西莫多摇了摇头, Witcher closely examines, „at that time received the Coroner performance of corpse exceptionally, or makes you feel the strange place?” 猎魔人追问,“当时接收尸体的验尸官表现有没有异常,或者让你觉得奇怪的地方？” Is frowning humpbacked, recalled a while, „Coroner your excellency desolateness as always, a few words have not communicated with me.” 驼背皱着眉头,回忆了一会儿,“验尸官阁下一如既往的冷淡,一句话都没跟我交流。” „Then you think...” Roy turned the Elsa corpse, confirmed that her back does not have wound. „Coroner and will his assistant dissect you to deliver to here corpse that night?” “那么你认为…”罗伊将爱莎的尸体翻了一圈,确认她背部不存在伤口。“验尸官和他的助手当天晚上会解剖你送到这儿的尸体吗？” „On the same day was robbed the merchant who killed, with this, altogether two corpses, according to me the understanding Coroner, he definitely met the autopsy to finish, waits almost to rest before dawn again.” “当天只有被劫杀的商人,和这位,一共两具尸体,按照我对验尸官的了解,他肯定会尸检完毕,等差不多凌晨再休息。” „The body of merchant where?!” “商人的尸体在哪儿？！” Witcher according to Quasimodo's direction, flips a register of names in room entrance drawer. 猎魔人根据卡西莫多的指引,翻了翻房间门口一张抽屉里的名册。 „No. 12 hospital bed, timberman flatter according to...” In on Elsa a bed, near the left hand. “十二号病床,木材商人阿依诺…”正在爱莎上一床,左手边。 Roy deeply inspires, lifted the plain white cloth fiercely, in the field of vision presented one impressively about 40 years old, potbellied, the whole body spread the medical antiseptic, the chest brings a striking suture line completely, stature black and blue, skin pale man. 罗伊深吸一口气,猛地掀开了白布,视野中赫然出现一位四十岁左右,大腹便便,浑身涂满医用防腐剂,胸膛带着一道醒目的缝合线的,身材青肿,皮肤苍白的男人。 Clearly, this dead passive. 很明显,这位死者被动过。 „Is you for the autopsy that he makes?” “是你为他做的尸检？” Quasimodo shakes the head, „is Coroner!” 卡西莫多摇头,“是验尸官！” Then, Coroner and assistant death time, should situated in conducts the postmortem examinations between the timberman and Elsa. 那么,验尸官和助手死亡时间,应该位于对木材商人和爱莎进行尸检之间。 But on the latter cannot see any wound. 可后者身上看不到任何伤口。 Roy ponders over saying that „their autopsy ends the timberman, was under the attack?” 罗伊思忖道,“他们尸检完木材商人,就遭遇了袭击？” Roy looks at the dead clear face, can only think that Coroner did not have autopsy Elsa with enough time, destroys the integrity, how otherwise can the flesh and blood resist sharp scalpel?! 罗伊看着死者清纯的脸,只能这么认为验尸官还没来得及尸检爱莎,破坏完整性,否则血肉之躯又怎么能抵挡锋利的手术刀？！ „Hū” “呼” Suddenly gloomy and cold wind from gate mouth. 忽然一阵阴冷的风从门口吹了进来。 Witcher cannot bear whole body one tremble, 猎魔人忍不住浑身一个哆嗦, Actually is the time passes, outside the morgue, Sun starts to vanish in the horizon. 却是时间流逝,停尸房外,太阳开始消失在地平线。 The temperature further reduces. 气温进一步降低。 „Grandmaster, do you have the discovery?” Dodd the attention will shift from the family member temporarily, he felt that oneself as if catches some key point, but also cannot say. “大师,您有发现？”陶德暂时将注意力从亲人身上转移,他感觉自己似乎抓到某个重点,但又说不上来。 „About Elsa, but also no clue.” “关于爱莎,还没啥头绪。” „But about Coroner and assistant, knew actually much. Kills their murderers is the human form lifeform! Moreover incessantly.” The Roy assured say/way, „Coroner and assistant body surface and internal organs have the trace that was gnawed to nip and swallow.” “但关于验尸官和助手,倒是知道了不少。杀害他们的凶手是人形生物！而且不止一个。”罗伊笃定道,“验尸官和助手体表和内脏都有被啃咬、吞食的痕迹。” „According to the trace judged, the tooth of perpetrators situated in the carnivore and herbivore, has the canine, incisor, premolar and latter molar, moreover is close to the herbivore.” “根据痕迹判断,行凶者们的牙齿介于食肉动物和食草动物之间,具备尖牙、切牙、前磨牙、后槽牙,而且更接近食草动物。” „That determination is ordinary human.” Dodd said, the basic body constitution is the required course of mercenary, his more than ten years of battle is not white mixed. “那确定是普通人类。”陶德说,基本人体结构是雇佣兵的必修课,他十几年战斗也不是白混的。 „Two people have the fist to beat, the trace that the nail scratches, these traces conform to the human similarly the characteristics.” “两人身上存在拳头殴打,指甲抓挠的痕迹,这些痕迹同样符合人类的特征。” Roy shot a look at a female corpse, un, the nail is very clean. 罗伊瞥了一眼女尸,嗯,指甲很干净。 He continues to explain, „also some massive scalpel wound of staying behind, scratch, cuts the wound, stabs... in lethal weapon here autopsy equipment is the same.” 他继续解释,“还有大量手术刀的留下的伤口,划伤,切伤,刺伤…凶器正是这里尸检器材中的一样。” „Only the person and kind of person lifeform can be so flexible utilize scalpel.” “只有人和类人生物才能如此灵活得运用手术刀。” Actually Witcher also discoveries, bloody air/Qi mostly centralized in morgue, the outside world and including the morgue entrance, do not have too the new courage vigor. 其实猎魔人还有一个发现,血腥气大都集中在停尸房内部,外界、包括停尸房门口附近,都不存在太多新鲜的血气。 Kills the Coroner murderer seems from the morgue shifts baseless general, has not stayed behind to him continuously, sufficiently with the trace that Witcher Senses traces. 杀害验尸官的凶手好似从停尸房内部凭空转移一般,没给他留下连续的,足以用猎魔人感官追踪的痕迹。 This is very unusual, but he does not think at once clearly. 这很反常,但一时之间他也想不明白。 Quasimodo shakes the head, the Axii Sign effect ended, he also sobers, happen to hears the analysis of Roy, replied without hesitation, „right, before you and me , the result of inspecting is exactly the same, the murderer should be human, the lunatic.” 卡西莫多摇了摇头,亚克西法印效果结束,他也清醒过来,正好听到罗伊的分析,不假思索地回答,“没错,您和我之前检查的结果一模一样,凶手应该是人类,疯子。” Also only has the lunatic, borders on the crazy person, stops at nothing, uses the nail and tooth like the animal, kills a person cruelly, and in the process is accompanied by swallows the flesh the behavior. 也只有疯子,濒临疯狂的人,才无所不用其极地,像动物一样用指甲、牙齿,残忍地杀死一个人,并且过程中伴有吞食血肉的行为。 „This way of the world was really more and more bad.” Quasimodo sighed, „outside city had Nekker, Drowner, Ghoul causes trouble, in the city is also ambushing compared with Monster more fearful similar. Two, you thought that who the murderer is?” “这个世道真是越来越糟糕了。”卡西莫多叹了口气,“城外有孽鬼,水鬼,食尸鬼作祟,城内还潜伏着比怪物更可怕的同类。两位,你们觉得凶手到底是谁？” „Temporarily is indefinite.” “暂时不确定。” Witcher shakes the head. 猎魔人摇摇头。 In the certain circumstances, similar is crueler than different race. 某些情况下,同类比异类更加残忍。 But at this time. 而这时候。 The setting sun falls, the twilight thorough four gather. 夕阳落下,暮色彻底四合。 Gatekeeper Quasimodo of morgue, is looking at the weather hesitant, after greeting, gets off work to depart. 停尸房的看门人卡西莫多,犹豫地望着天色,打了个招呼后,下班离去。 The Eternal Fire guard still had not come back. 永恒之火的守卫仍然没有回来。 In the room only remains Witcher and mercenary two people. 房间里只剩猎魔人和雇佣兵两人。 ...... …… „This fellow,” Roy is recalling Quasimodo's performance, always has a strange feeling. “这家伙,”罗伊回忆着卡西莫多的表现,总有种古怪的感觉。 His every action and every movement have the trace of performance. 他的一举一动都存在表演的痕迹。 But he is not a murderer, not Higher Vampire and so on thing. 但他不是凶手,亦非高等吸血鬼之类的东西。 Roy does not think at once clearly. 罗伊一时之间想不明白。 But Dodd, looks solemn. 而陶德,神情肃穆。 „Master Roy, you had mentioned a series of tragedies that Black Sun Prophecy derives. That Sorcerer, in the dream that fuzzy-looking man, is the Prophecy poisoned, during the capture and action of driving away solar eclipse, girl who was born, for example my Elsa.” “罗伊大师,你曾经提到过黑日预言衍生的一系列悲剧。那个术士,梦中那个面目模糊的男人,就是预言中毒者,捕捉、驱赶日食期间出生的女孩,比如我的爱莎。” „My daughter was definitely caught to treat as the experiment material by him, turns into this strange appearance.” “我的女儿肯定是被他抓过去当做实验素材,才变成这副诡异的样子。” Dodd is stroking gently the profile of young girl, the corpse cool was very obviously long, actually the beautiful living person probably, he believes that Elsa has accepted some transformation, came from the interior. 陶德摩挲着少女的侧脸,明明尸体都凉了很久,却美丽的像是活人,他更加坚信爱莎接受过某种改造,来自于内部。 „Right, that Sorcerer to her actions, is definitely related with Black Sun Prophecy.” “没错,那个术士对她的所作所为,肯定跟黑日预言有关。” ...... …… „I, I want to her further examination, to investigate thoroughly her cause of death...” Dodd grasps on the surgery plate quietly sharp scalpel, does not wait for Witcher to respond, cut the skin of dead wrist section gently. “我,我想对她进一步检查,查清她的死因…”陶德悄然抓起手术盘里锋利的手术刀,不等猎魔人反应过来,轻轻地划开了死者腕部的皮肤。 Roy starts to speak but hesitates, he also felt, Dodd will keep a dignity for Elsa. 罗伊欲言又止,他原本还觉得,陶德会为爱莎留一个体面。 But looks at the Dodd shape, if the enchanted appearance, has not as if cared. 但看陶德的状若疯魔样子,似乎已经不在意了。 Now prevents, instead will let his pain? 现在阻止,反而会让他痛苦吧？ Under scalpel. 手术刀下。 The pure white skin to two sideslips smoothly like the cream. 洁白的皮肤如奶油般顺畅地向两侧滑开。 But is very strange, her blood as if solidifies in the skin floor, without infiltrating tiny bit, even has not stained scalpel. 但很奇怪,她的鲜血仿佛凝固在皮肤底层,没有渗透出一丝一毫,甚至没沾上手术刀。 Roy looks at steadily. 罗伊目不转睛。 „Actually that bastard exerted what method to Elsa, actually does he have what ability? I must clarify,” the Dodd complexion is sad from time to time, from time to time hates, „then ten times of hundred times of places present.” “那个混蛋究竟对爱莎施加了什么手段,他究竟有什么能力？我要弄清楚,”陶德脸色时而哀伤,时而痛恨,“然后十倍百倍地奉还。” „Pū cī pū cī...” Sharp weapon continuously entered the meat sound. “噗呲噗呲…”连续不断的利器入肉声响了起来。 The dark underground morgue blew the cold wind, the flame dragged, reverberated a spooky female voice, such as to sob indistinctly such as states. 幽暗的地下停尸房又刮起了阴风,火光摇曳间,隐隐约约回荡着一个幽幽的女声、如泣如述。
