……

...

观颐台，隶属丹鼎司治下研习丹道之地。飞檐上，一个男人正在狂奔。

Elixir Research Terrace is where elixirs are researched under the auspices of the Alchemy Commission. A man storms wildly across the pointed rooftop rafters.

飞檐转眼已尽，脚下的路途只余一片虚空。下个瞬间，男人从屋顶起跳，抓住了一只鹤运物流的机巧鸟。鸟儿不满地咕哝着预录制的警报语音，晃动几下，最终稳稳接住了他，向着停在远方的星槎飞去。

Within but a moment, the man is at the edge of the eaves with nothing but air beneath his steps. Suddenly, the man leaps off the roof, catching onto a Heron Express cycrane. The birdlike ingenuity mutters out a few prerecorded warnings before trying to shake him off. Finally, it stabilizes, and carries him off safely to a starskiff parked in the distance.

等丹鼎司守卫终于冲上楼顶时，男人已经只剩下了一个飞虫似的影子。

When the Alchemy Commission guards finally reached the rooftop, the man had disappeared — leaving behind only a cricket-like shadow figure.

一名守卫眺望着那个愈发渺小的背影，忽然跌坐在地上，眼里含着泪，颤抖着喃喃道：「完了，全完了。」

A guard eyed the diminishing figure, before falling to the ground with tears in his eyes, trembling as he muttered: "It's over, everything's over."

「宁萨，这不是我们的错。」他身边另一人叹了口气，然后以自暴自弃的轻巧口吻说道，「上报十王司吧，他们会解决的。」

"Ninsa, it's not our fault." The officer beside him sighed aloud and then spoke self-deprecatingly, "Notify the Ten-Lords Commission. They can fix this."

「解决？」被称作宁萨的卫士扯着嗓子叫道，「贺德，你说说看，这要怎么解决？他带走了封藏着神降时代秘药丹方的玉兆！这些药方涉及仙舟隐藏千年的秘密，一旦泄露，后果不堪设想……」

"Fix?" Shouted the guard called Ninsa. "Tell me how to fix this, Hede. He fled with a jade abacus that holds the prescriptions from the Theophany Era! Xianzhou has been hiding those secrets for centuries. Once revealed, the consequences will be unimaginable..."

宁萨停顿了一会儿，见自己的搭档迟迟没有接话，身后的下属们更是噤若寒蝉，便站起身来继续叫道：「可我们甚至连他的脸都没有看清楚！就算是十王司也帮不了我们。」

Ninsa paused and, seeing his partner lost for words and his own troops even more petrified, he stood up to continue shouting: "We didn't even get a clear view of his face! Even the Ten-Lords Commission can't help us."

他话音未落，众人身后便响起了一个冰冷的女声：「我已记住了，放心。」

Before he could finish, a cold female voice rang out behind everyone: "I've already memorized his face. Rest assured."

众人自觉地向两边散开，声音的主人露出了真容——一名黑色短发的少女，手中拿着锁链与节杖，精致可爱的脸上没有一丝表情，令人脊背发凉。

Everyone automatically fanned out, and the woman revealed her face — a young girl with short black hair holding a chain and scepter in her hands. There was no emotion on her delicate and lovely face, and it sent chills down the spines of the troops.

「观颐台附近禁止一切机巧之物出没。当然，我不在此列。」

"All ingenium creations are prohibited around the Elixir Research Terrace. Of course, not including me."

少女一面说着，一面走到屋顶边缘，声音依旧冰冷刺骨，「所有负责货运的机巧鸟也都在地衡司登录在册，若被改造，也很快就能发现。」

The young lady said as she walked to the edge of the roof, her voice chilling to the bones. "All cycranes responsible for deliveries are registered with the Realm-Keeping Commission. If they were modded, they can be detected very soon."

「那只鸟怎么解释？你看到了对吧？」宁萨追问道。

"How do you explain that particular one? You've seen it, right?" Asked Ninsa.

「也许是被某种生物电讯号劫持了吧。那个化外民的能力颇为奇特，你很关心？」

"It may have been hijacked by some kind of bioelectric signal. That Outworlder's abilities are pretty unique, are you concerned?"

宁萨像是被来者的气场镇住了，一句话也说不出来，甚至险些再次跌坐在地。贺德则出于一种动物本能般的洞察，谨慎地问道：「敢问阁下是……」

Ninsa seems to be stunned into silence by this visitor, and almost dropped to the ground once more. Like an animal with his instincts, Hede asked cautiously, "May I ask who your Excellency is..."

「十王司的判官。」

"Judge of the Ten-Lords Commission."

少女说罢，从屋顶一跃而下，转瞬间便消失了。

And with that, the girl flipped down off the top of the roof, and instantly disappeared out of sight.

十王司？题材是不错啦，但是我觉得这和我想象的十王司相去甚远。这看上去就是把什么仙舟外的间谍小说生硬地换了一个包装，我建议作者多看看《爱与约束的视听原理》，比这个开头不知道高到哪里去了。

The Ten-Lords Commission? It's good subject matter, but it's far from the Ten Lords of my imagination. This just looks like some rough repackaging of spy novels set outside Xianzhou. I suggest the author check out Social Principles of Love and Restraint. It's far better than this opener here.

「甲等上品」。飞棋老师对于故事推演的掌握能力绝对是仙舟的一流。从视点的迁移到人物形象的重塑，所有的戏剧张力都累积到最后给予释放。

"Grade A top product." Master Fay's deductive skills are absolutely the best aboard Xianzhou. From the migration of viewpoints to the reshaping of characters, all of the dramatic tension is built up before being released at the end.

飞棋老师用画面感的文字贯穿了整个基调，老辣的描写令人震颤，仿佛长出了手脚与五官，在读者的监督与观测的状态下，依然引导着角色。

Master Fay runs over the central themes with picturesque words. The penetrating descriptions are shocking, as though they've sprouted their own hands, feet, and senses. Characters are guided under the supervision and observation of the reader.

书接上文：古老岁月前的长生秘密横遭窃夺，如同瓷娃娃的十王司少女快步追上，她必须赶在秘密失守之前，令罪犯伏法……

Continuing: A prescription of ages past containing the secrets to longevity was stolen. The girl from the Ten-Lords Commission who looks like a porcelain doll gave chase. She had to catch up before the secret was leaked, to apprehend the criminal...

「大人，」一个矮小的狐人女判官谨慎地问道，「即使是十王司，也不可能空口无凭地识别出生物电讯号，这样的判断是否有些武断……」

"Madam," a short foxian female judge calls out cautiously. "Not even the Ten-Lords Commission could identify bioelectric signals without any evidence. This judgment seems a little arbitrary..."

「重点并非讯号本身。」被称做大人的少女打断她，「观颐台藏着神降时代迄今的秘药丹方，却由化外民窃贼出手夺走宝物……」

"The point is not the signal itself," the girl being called Madam interrupts. "A secret prescription from the Theophany Era is hidden in the Elixir Research Terrace, and was stolen by an Outworld thief..."

「您的意思是……」狐人试探着问道，生怕被上司责骂自己没有慧根。

"You mean...?" Asks the foxian tentatively, afraid of being remonstrated by her leader for not knowing.

「莫非观颐台所贮之物是被刊登在了广告上吗？到了化外民也人尽皆知的地步？」少女顿了顿，补充道，「去给我查清楚，连同被开除的、辞职的医士也一起。」

"Has all items stored in the Elixir Research Terrace been advertised so widely that even Outworlders know about it? Has it become common knowledge?" Says the girl, pausing to add: "Go and look into things there, including any previous doctors who've been fired or quit."

「小姐，请止步，这里是男厕…」

"Miss, please stop. This is the men's restroom..."

守在卫生间门口的持明男子话还没说完，就感到脖子上架着一个冰冷的物体。他低头看去，那是一把形如矛尖的节杖。

Before he can finish, the Vidyadhara man guarding the door of the men's room feels a cold object on his neck. Looking down, he sees a scepter in the shape of a spear-tip.

按他自己的话来说，自己能安稳活过这一世的前三百年，靠得只有三个字——「识时务」。于是他立刻陪着笑脸说道：「急用是吧，那我就不拦着您了，哈哈。」

According to his own words, he has been able to safely survive his first 300 years by relying on three words alone: "understand the situation." So he immediately smiles and says: "It's urgent, right? Then I won't stop you, haha."

说罢，他便以一个奇怪的姿势，一边回头赔笑，一边飞似地逃出了暗巷。

Then, he escapes in a strange pose, turning his head with an apologetic smile as he flees down the dark alleyway.

黑发少女用节杖挑起「卫生间」前脏兮兮的布帘，走了进去。

The dark-haired girl uses her scepter to lift the filthy curtain over the restroom's doorway and walks inside.

布帘之后，一种强烈的味道刺激着她的伺观中枢。分析结果在一纳秒后得出：那并非氨的气味，而是浓到刺鼻的次氯酸钠。也许绝大多数遵纪守法的仙舟居民，根本想不到会有人在废弃的公共卫生间里开医馆吧？

Behind the curtain, a strong stench stimulates her olfactory center. A quick analysis is completed within a nanosecond: It isn't the smell of ammonia, but a pungent odor of sodium hypochlorite. Perhaps the vast majority of law-abiding citizens of Xianzhou would never imagine an apothecary hiding out in an abandoned public restroom like this.

「医馆」最深处，一位医师模样的男子正在出神发呆。在对方有所反应过来之前，少女如幽灵般身形逼近。一束锁链如有灵之物蛇盘而起，将他缚住，节杖的尖锋则抵在他的喉咙上。

In the deepest part of the apothecary, a man who appears to be a physician is lost in thought. Before he can react, a young girl approaches him like a ghost. A chain, as if it had a life of its own, coils around him, binding him tightly, while the sharp tip of a staff presses against his throat.

「你把观颐台藏有丹方的事告诉谁了？」少女问完，稍微减轻了力度，使他可以开口说话。

"Who did you tell about the secret prescriptions kept in the Elixir Research Terrace?" The girl asks, then slightly releases the pressure so that he can speak.

「药方…我不知道什么药方，呃……」

"Prescription... I don't know about any prescription... Ugh..."

那男人才说了几个字，少女就又加大了力量，将他的话头堵在了喉咙里。

He only manages to say a few words before the girl tightens her grip, blocking up the words in his throat.

「他是谁？」少女说完，再次减轻了右手的力度。

"Who is he?" She demands, again relaxing her right hand slightly.

「咳咳…我不知道…呃……」

"Ahem... I don't know... Ugh..."

「十王司判官缉拿索问的手段，你听说过几种？我最后问一次，他是谁？」少女收回形似矛尖的节杖，以与身量不相称的巨力，轻易将他提起。

"How many of the Ten Lords' interrogation methods have you heard of? I'll ask you one last time: Who is he?" She retracts the spear-like scepter and, in a display of strength disproportionate to her size, easily lifts him up off the ground.

「咳…考文垂！咳咳…艾伯特•考文垂！我说了！我都说了！女侠饶命！」

"Ahem... Coventry! Ahem... Albert Coventry! There, I said it! I told you. Please spare me!"

男人突然感觉浑身力气像是凭空消失，两腿一软，顺势瘫倒在地。等他回过神来想要辨清少女面貌的时候，才发现，刚才疾风骤雨一般的讯问像是不曾存在，只剩下暗巷的窸窸窣窣。

The man suddenly feels all his strength has left his body. Both his legs give way as he collapses to the ground. When he comes back around and tries to see the girl's face, he realizes that the entire nightmarish interrogation process is as though it never existed — only the rustling sound from the alleyway remains.

书接上文：犯人犯下大罪，判官便会降下审判，从结果上来说，无人知晓的秘密究竟是什么，只要不会泄露，是什么根本无足轻重……

Continuing: When a crime is committed, the judge must bring down the gavel. In terms of the result, what value is a secret if nobody knows it? As long as it's still a secret, its true form is not important at all...

少女打开随身的卷轴，看着其上实时刷新的地图，若有所思。

The girl opened the scroll she was carrying and looked thoughtfully at the real-time data refreshing on the map.

「考文垂拿到的情报不是药方，您想说的是这个意思？」狐人女判官在一旁弱弱问道。

"The intel Coventry obtained is not the prescription. Is that what you mean?" asked the foxian judge meekly.

「药方不过是个幌子。」少女头也不抬。

"The prescription is just a front." said the girl, without looking up.

「所以…依属下之见，考文垂只是被利用的求药使，观颐台中有些人想制造乱局，抹除他们的研究。这不过是个幌子，假借盗窃转移视线。」狐人说着，将几个标记发送到了少女手中的卷轴中，「能够修复数据的卜算者，我已为大人找好了。」

"So... as far as I am concerned, Coventry is just being used. Some people in the Elixir Research Terrace wanted to stir up chaos to muddle the news of their research. The news of theft is just a ploy for redirection." the foxian said, sending across several notes to the scroll in the girl's hand. "I've already got the diviner who is able to recover the data presumed lost."

「做得很好。」少女点点头，语气依旧冰冷。

"Well done." The girl nodded, her tone still ice-cold.

狐人女判官听到这句冰冷的表扬，努力做出一副严肃的表情，但双耳还是不能自已地摇晃了起来。

When the foxian judge heard this cold praise, she tried her best to maintain a serious expression but her ears couldn't help wiggling.

大约三小时之后。确认无人跟踪的考文垂打开房门，招呼了一声：「我回来了。」

About three hours later after confirming nobody was following him, Coventry opened the door and called out: "I'm back."

他一开门便觉得不对劲，房间内一片漆黑。而且，弥尚这个疯疯癫癫的仙舟骇客以往总是会唱着奇怪的小曲来迎接他，可这次，房间一片死寂。

As soon as he opened the door, he felt something was off. The room was completely dark. That crazed Xianzhou hacker Mishang used to welcome him back by singing a strange ditty, but this time the room was dead silent.

「坏了。」他在心中暗道不好，立刻掏出武器，在黑暗中谨慎地前进。

"Something is wrong," he quietly said to himself as he pulled out his weapon. He pushed on into the darkness.

隔断房间的屏风背后，一袭白色身影缓步而出。考文垂几乎不假思索地扣动手弩的扳机。

Behind the screen that sectioned the room, a white figure emerged slowly. Coventry almost reflexively pulled the trigger of his hand crossbow.

长约两寸、薄如蝉翼的青色箭镞簌簌作响，悬在少女精致的面庞前方一尺。箭镞间电火迸闪，仿佛正竭力突破那看不见的屏障。

A two-inch-long, thin, cyan-colored bolt thrummed, hovering about a foot in front of the delicate face of the young girl. The bolthead crackled with sparks as if trying to break through the invisible barrier.

「你，怎么找到我的？」

"H—How did you find me?"

「机巧鸟。」冰冷、不沾烟火气的女声回答道。

"Cycrane." The response was a cold and emotionless female voice.

「那台无人机？我一落地就把它放走了！」男人不置可否。

"That drone? I released it as soon as I landed!" cried the man nonchalantly.

「受干扰的机巧鸟被地衡司捕获了，它的飞行路径已足够太卜司算出你的去向。」少女仿佛逗引蝴蝶，半是好奇地轻触在空中颤抖的箭镞。

"The influenced cycrane has been retrieved by the Realm-Keeping Commission. Its flight path was enough for the Divination Commission to triangulate your whereabouts." The girl half-curiously touched the quivering bolthead in the air like teasing a butterfly.

这便是考文垂苦等的那一刻，逃出生天的刹那。

This was the moment Coventry was waiting for, the split-second window of opportunity for his escape.

他屈膝前扑，足踵发力，双掌中心隐然带起一道紫色电弧。考文垂纵横多个世界，逍遥于公司的追捕之外，常年列名通缉榜上，不仅仅是因为他计划周密；更因为他知道，一旦落网，该在什么时候做些什么。

He bent his knees and pushed off with the soles of his feet. A purple electrical arc could be seen in the center of his palms. Coventry roamed many worlds and had always fluttered outside the grasp of the Interastral Peace Corporation. He was perpetually on the wanted list, not just because of his well-planned schemes, but also because he knew what to do when he was caught.

人造皮肤下植入了一张电脉冲网络，这个杀手锏考文垂绝少示人。管它什么仙舟长生种，管它什么工造司机巧……在全功率运转的一击下只怕都是一团焦炭罢了。

Under his artificial skin, a network of electrical pulses was implanted, Coventry rarely showed this trick up his sleeves to anyone. Whether it be the long-life species of Xianzhou or the Artisanship Commission's Ingenium creations... With a fully powered strike, they would likely all turn to ashes.

「电磁场转动！」

"Electromagnetic field activate!"

「中了！」男人感到手掌印上了敌体。若不是要全神贯注维持电极输出，他几乎笑出声来。

"Gotcha!" The man felt his enemy in his palm. If it wasn't for the need to concentrate all his attention on maintaining the electrical output, he would have laughed out loud.

烟焦蹿升，火花飞溅，难闻的焦臭味挥之不散。

Smoke rose and sparks flew as the unpleasant smell of burning filled the area.

考文垂颤抖着，仿佛癫痫发作，不能自已。漆黑一团的房间在难以置信的落败冲击中，旋转成了一团模糊的影子。

Coventry trembled as if having an epileptic seizure as he struggled to control himself. Upon impact, the pitch-black room spun into a blob of shadow in his unimaginable defeat.

「你动作太慢了。」少女从幻影凝作实体。

"Your movement is too slow." The young girl materialized from within the shadow.

动、动作？考文垂看着自己的手腕被弯折成不自然的角度。不知何时，这只手被人硬生生按在了自己的下颚上。

M—Movement? Coventry stared at his wrist, bent at an unnatural angle. At some point in time unbeknownst to him, that hand was forcibly pressed against his lower jaw.

「放电，但不绝缘。这门武学可真没用。」

"Using electricity without being insulated. What a useless maneuver."

一袭白衣的判官面目无喜无悲。

The judge in white showed no emotions on her face.

「『令堕长生』、『贪取不死』。此两种居不赦十恶之首。你可知罪？」

"Involuntary Immortalization and Immortality Theft. These two are the gravest of the Ten Unpardonable Sins. Do you admit your guilt?"

男人无法抑制住颤抖，不仅是因为电击，更是因为恐惧。

The man could not control his shaking, partially because of the electric shock, but more because of the fear.

他以仅存的神智，嘶声哀求：「请…请饶我一命，我还没看过丹方，我会立刻留下它，滚出罗浮。您……再也不会看到我了！」

With the remaining sanity he could muster, he begged with his coarse voice, "Please... Please forgive me. I haven't even peeked at the prescription. I will leave it behind and get my butt off of the Luofu. Please... You will never see me again!"

考文垂紧绷神经，等待着那位判官的决断，然而黑暗中只有沉默。半晌，他竟仿佛从这沉默当中听到了一声不存在的嗤笑。

Coventry steeled his nerves, awaiting the verdict from the judge — but there was only silence in the darkness. After a long while, he seemed to hear an impossible sneering from out of the darkness.

紧接着，那冰冷的声音再度响起，用神圣、坚定、不可忤逆的语气，一字一顿地说道：

Immediately after, that same cold voice rang out again and in a sacred, firm, and undeniable tone said word-by-word:

「十王圣断。」

"Ten Lords' Verdict."
