Riding the company shuttle vehicle with Margot, Li Haojun arrived at Igor Factory. Everything in sight was still familiar, only the people inside had changed; this factory had new owners.
和玛戈一起乘坐公司通勤车辆来到了伊戈尔工厂,眼前还是熟悉的一切,只是里面的人换了,这座工厂易主了.
Li Haojun turned his head and glanced at Margot beside him. He wondered if Malaya had entered her body yet. Judging from her expression and temperament, alas, it still seemed to be Margot. She remained immersed in the sweetness of this morning. That gaze, that smile, as if the intimacy early that day had truly drawn the two of them closer.
李皓珺扭头看了一眼身边的玛戈,也不知道现在玛莱雅进到她的身体没有,从表情气质上看,唉,好像还是玛戈,依然沉浸在今早的甜蜜里面,那眼神,那笑容,好像一早的亲密着实拉近了两个人的关系.
He could not ask her about the next steps. Following their prior agreement, Li Haojun had no choice but to head to their respective posts. He would start his inspection work from his own position first.
也不能问她下一步怎么做,李皓珺只好按照事先的商议,各自奔赴自己的岗位,那就自己先从自己的的岗位工作查起吧.
As an operating staff member, he had no authority to query material compositions. In Kyle's memories, he had been told what materials were transported and stored in the pipelines and containers. Yet Li Haojun knew clearly that this information might be false. Still, he had his own way to verify, for he remembered the original process parameters of the system: temperature, pressure, flow rate. He could read all of these from the field instruments.
对于操作员工来说,物料组分他并没有权限查询,反正凯尔的记忆中被告知了管道,容器里输送和储存的是什么物料,但是李皓珺很清楚,这些告知也可能是虚假信息,不过他有自己的方法核对,因为他记得原来系统的工艺参数,温度,压力,流量,这些他都能在现场仪表获得读数.
So beside the production line, he appeared to be patrolling and recording production logs. In truth, he was noting discrepancies in production line parameters in different handwriting.
所以他在生产线旁边,好像一边巡查一边记录生产日志一样,其实他在用不同的字体记录生产线参数的差异.
"Hey, what are you doing?" A voice whispered from behind him.
"喂,你在做什么," 身后一个声音小声在问,
Li Haojun turned around and saw Margot catching up. Her tiptoeing manner made him want to laugh. Malaya was in control now, yet he could not ask. He just smiled and waited for her to continue.
李皓珺一回头,看见玛戈正跟上来,那蹑手蹑脚的样子,让他心中觉得好笑,是玛莱雅进来了,可是自己又不能问,就笑眯眯地等着她往下说,
"I need to enter the control room computer room to download data, but there are surveillance cameras in the corridor. I need you to draw the surveillance camera and turn it to the other side."
"我需要进入控制室机房下载数据,但是走廊有监控,需要你把监控摄像头吸引转到另一边."
"Alright," Li Haojun agreed with a smile. Seeing her nervous look, it really felt authentic. He had unexpectedly become the protagonist in a spy thriller.
"好啊," 李皓珺笑着答应了,看她那紧张兮兮的样子,还真像那么回事,自己竟然成了谍战片主角.
Thinking this over, he followed Margot onward. Li Haojun paid more attention to her gait, searching for traces of Malaya. Memories surfaced of her as a young girl, walking in high heels on the streets of New York at dawn, and what she had said to him on the plane bound for New York: she wanted him to go on adventures with her. Heh, now her wish had come true in this strange way.
一边想着,一边跟着玛戈走下去,李皓珺更多地是留意她的步态,在其中寻找着玛莱雅的影子,脑海里回想着她还是小姑娘的时候,穿着高跟鞋走在纽约清晨的街头,还有她在前往纽约的飞机上曾对自己说的,要自己和她一起去冒险.呵呵,如今她的心愿竟然以这种方式实现了.
After passing the corner of that corridor, Margot did not walk inside. Instead, she turned back after passing it and shot Li Haojun a look. Oh, that gaze—he could not tell if it was Malaya's mischievous playfulness or Margot's tender charm.
走过那条走廊的拐角,玛戈没有走进去,而是在走过之后回身,给李皓珺使了个眼色.呵,那眼神,真不知道是玛莱雅的顽皮嬉闹还是玛戈的缠绵魅惑.
Understanding her signal, Li Haojun turned around the corner and stepped into the corridor. As he walked, he kept observing his surroundings. There was a wider section in the middle of the corridor. One side was a solid wall, the other the glass wall of the clerical office. No one was inside, and the lights were off, leaving it dark.
李皓珺会意,转身转过墙角,走进那条走廊,一边走,他一边留意着环境情况.走廊中间有一段宽阔一些,一边是墙壁,一边是玻璃墙壁的文员办公室,但是里面没人,也没开灯,是黑的.
The only surveillance camera was right here. It could rotate, and its current view covered the door to the control room computer room. His task was to draw its attention toward himself. Then Margot, controlled by Malaya, would enter the corridor from another direction and get into the target room.
唯一的监控摄像头就在这里,只有一个,是可以回转的,现在在它的视野里能看到控制室机房的门,自己需要做的就是把它吸引到自己这边来,玛莱雅操控的玛戈会从另一个方向走进走廊,进入目标房间.
But how should he do it? To make the personnel in the monitoring room watch him, he needed to do something distinctive. The camera must not turn away after a quick glance; the commotion he created had to last for a while.
可是自己要怎么做呢?要让监控室人员看自己,就得做点特别的事情,而且还不能看一眼就转回去,自己弄出来的动静还要有点时长.
Li Haojun looked around. Spray the surveillance camera with a fire extinguisher? That would be absurd. Security guards would come and arrest him. He looked again at the glass wall of the opposite office. Smash the glass? That would not work either, it was destructive behavior of the same kind. He could not use vandalism to attract attention. So he had to rely on non-destructive actions? What could he do?
李皓珺环视了一下四周,用消防灭火器喷监控摄像头?自己有病吧,会有保安来把自己捉走.他又看了看对面办公室玻璃墙,砸玻璃?也不行,同样性质的行为,自己不能用破坏性行为吸引注意力,那就只能是建设性的行为了?有什么呢?
The corridor lights lit up the whole passage and this wider stretch. They projected the scenery of the corridor onto the glass wall of the clerical office. Since the office was dark with no interior lighting, the reflected view of the corridor was crystal clear. Li Haojun stared at his own reflection and slowly approached the glass wall, as if looking into a mirror.
走廊的灯光照亮了整个走廊和这一段比较宽敞的区域,也把走廊里的景物,投射在了文员办公室玻璃墙上,因为里面没开灯,是黑的,没有背景光线所以反射回来的走廊景物清晰可见.李皓珺看着自己的反射影像,慢慢走近玻璃墙壁,就好像照镜子一样.
Kyle had handsome features, a well-proportioned and tall figure, a broad forehead, firm jawline, and neat golden-brown hair combed in a 3/7 side-back style. No wonder Margot had been so delighted early that morning. It was indeed a pleasant sight. This young man was exceptionally good-looking.
原来凯尔有着英俊的外表,身材匀称高挑,额头宽阔,颌骨硬朗,金棕色的头发板板正正地梳着三七开背头.怪不得玛戈一早那么愉悦,看来真的是赏心悦目啊,自己这小伙倍儿帅.
While admiring his reflection, Li Haojun strolled closer to the glass wall and instinctively raised a hand to smooth his hair. A plan suddenly popped into his mind. Why not pretend to be narcissistic about his good looks, put on a show with his outstanding appearance to catch the attention of the surveillance staff?
李皓珺一边欣赏着自己的形象,一边漫步走近玻璃墙,还下意识地抬手拢了一把自己的头发,瞬时心生一计.何不就假装作自恋自己的相貌,优异的外貌条件,秀一波操作,吸引监控人员注意呢?
With that thought, he walked to the edge of the camera's field of view, aiming to draw it to rotate toward him. After striking several dramatic poses, he checked the camera through the reflection on the glass wall. It did not move at all. It seemed no one was watching him admire himself in the mirror; he needed to add more flair. Quickly he searched for a melody in his mind, a disco tune. He had to perform "Hot Stuff".
想到这他走到摄像头视野之内的边缘处,目的是把它吸引旋转过来,但是一顿搔首弄姿之后,他从玻璃墙壁反光看了一眼摄像头,没有反应.看来自己照镜子臭美是没人看啊,还是得加活儿啊.赶紧在脑海里搜索,找一个旋律,迪斯科舞曲的旋律,必须得来一段 "Hot Stuff".
Following the melody in his head, Li Haojun got into the groove. Nodding his head and tapping his toes against the floor to keep time. Yet this was not eye-catching enough. Then his arms joined the rhythm, swaying opposite to his head. Kyle possessed decent physical coordination, keeping steady rhythm without messing up. Oh, perhaps Kyle knew how to dance disco.
随着脑海里的旋律,李皓珺找到了点感觉,随着节奏一边点头一边翘着脚尖,鞋尖在地面拍打着节奏.但是这样不够热度啊,接着他的双臂也加入了节奏,与头部摇摆着相反的方向,凯尔的身体协调性还不错,节奏稳定,没有乱掉,哦,或许他是会跳迪斯科的吧.
As his body grew more animated, lateral hip swaying blended into the dance rhythm.
随着身体的逐渐活跃,臀部的横向摇摆也逐渐参与进了身体的舞动韵律.
He stole another glance at the surveillance camera. It still had not turned toward him. Ugh, it seemed he needed to try harder. Keeping to the beat, Li Haojun twisted his body, unzipped his jacket, held it in his hand, swung it around a few times while dancing, then tossed it aside gracefully. He turned, facing the camera, right hand cupping the back of his head, left hand resting on his lower abdomen, and began swaying his hips suggestively from side to side. While twisting, he felt awkward. He thought to himself, I am nearly fifty years old, yet I have to make a fool of myself here today. Still, Kyle had solid dance skills, his movements smooth.
瞅机会瞥了一眼监控摄像头,依然没转到这边来,哎呀,看来还得卖力气啊.李皓珺踩着节奏,一边扭动身体一边拉开上衣夹克拉索,拎在手里,边跳舞还边抡了几圈,然后潇洒地扔在一边,扭头转身,开始面对着摄像头,右手搂着后脑,左手按着小腹,开始暧昧地左右摆胯.一边扭心里一边别扭,心想,我都快年过半百的老头子了,今天还得在这献丑,丢人现眼啊.不过凯尔的舞蹈底子还不错,动作丝滑.
Yet effort meant nothing when he faced the wrong direction. That surveillance camera never rotated toward him. Where lay the path to success? Li Haojun was confused. If this failed, he would have to …
但是方向不对,努力白费,那个监控摄像头始终没有转过来,成功的方向在哪啊?李皓珺一头雾水,实在不行,就得...
As luck would have it, two girls walked side by side down the corridor. Upon closer look, they were Jazmin and Camila. Kyle knew them, quite well in fact.
这时候巧了,走廊里肩并肩走过来两个女孩,走近一看原来是哈兹敏和卡米拉,凯尔认识她们,并且还很熟.
This made things easier, Li Haojun thought. If necessary, he could use them for the mission. After all, Malaya's mission mattered more than they did.
这就好办了,李皓珺心想,实在不行就拿她们做任务吧,毕竟玛莱雅的任务比她们重要.
With this in mind, Li Haojun kept dancing and smiled as he watched them draw near. They approached him burning with passion. Both were fiery Mexican girls, their full thighs and hips wrapped in tight jeans. Simple bras revealed defined waistlines. Youthful vitality stretched their cropped jackets, swinging left and right with every step, brimming with energy.
想到这李皓珺一边舞蹈一边笑嘻嘻地看着她们走近,而她们也是脸上洋溢着火一样的热情来到了他的身边,都是火辣墨西族裔哥女孩,丰满的大腿和臀部被紧绷的牛仔裤包裹,简约的 bra 露出小蛮腰的马甲线,青春的生机从里面撑起短款夹克上衣,在步伐中左右摇摆,简直是活力四射.
If the decent approach failed, he had to go for a bold one. When they reached his side, Li Haojun winked at them and performed MJ's crotch grab and hip thrust.
主流不行就这只能下流了,等她们走到身边,李皓珺一边朝她们抛媚眼儿,一边上演 MJ 抓裆顶胯.
Jazmin burst out laughing at once.
哈兹敏当即哈哈哈大笑,
"So when Margot is away, you finally remember us sisters?"
"怎么玛戈不在的时候你终于想起我们姐妹了?"
She responded. Li Haojun saw this was promising. He quickly stepped to Michael Jackson's dance moves, walking side by side with them. As they moved forward, he whispered the lyrics of *Bad* close to Jazmin's ear, his breathy and suggestive tone blowing against her ear, every sound drifting into her mind.
搭茬了,李皓珺一看有戏,赶紧踩着迈克尔・杰克逊的舞步,与她们肩并肩地前行,边走还边在哈兹敏耳边小声唱那首"Bad",暧昧的气声吹耳根的唱法,贴着她的耳朵,全都吹进了哈兹敏的脑子里,
"I know all about you
I'm gonna teach you a lesson
Show yourself
In front of everyone
..."
"我清楚你的一切
我要教训你一顿
快在众人面前
显露你的真样
..."
Women always loved compliments and praise. Jazmin kept walking, yet her body involuntarily fell into the song's rhythm. Her feet bounced, her chest trembled, her long hair streamed.
女人总是喜欢被恭维和捧起,哈兹敏继续着她的脚步,但是她的身体却不由自主的踩在了歌曲的节奏上,她的脚步在弹跳,她的胸在随着颤动,她的长发在飘.
Things were progressing well, but if they walked further, they would step out of the surveillance camera's range, and the mission would fail. Li Haojun quickly pulled Jazmin back, gazing at her with a pleading, reluctant look, while singing stubbornly.
事态发展不错,但是再跟她们往前走就走出监控摄像头范围了,任务失败.李皓珺赶紧拉住了哈兹敏,用乞求挽留的眼神望着她,但是嘴硬地唱着,
"Come on
You know I'm good
You know
You know I'm good
You know
..."
"来吧
你清楚我很棒
你了解
你知道我很棒
你了解
..."
Jazmin was delighted and did not refuse. She twisted her body, following him back to the required spot, infected by his enthusiasm. The two sisters began dancing with him.
哈兹敏很开心,没有拒绝,也扭动着身体,跟着他又回到了应该所在的位置,被他的热情感染着,姐妹俩和他一起舞蹈起来.
At that moment, another person passed by. Li Haojun stole a glance. From Kyle's memories, he knew it was Tammy Sue Hicks, an older unmarried woman from the south. No one pursued her because she was large and heavy.
这时候又有人从这里经过,李皓珺瞟了一眼,在凯尔的记忆里知道,她是塔米・苏・希克斯,一个来自南方的,没人要的老女孩,因为她太魁梧,太胖了.
