| 心锁 | 7 |
|
小吉寻声找去，那是厨房。 一个男人正背对他，手里挥着一把斧子， 疯狂地往地上砸去。 |
Xiaoji followed the sound to the kitchen. A man who was having his back to her was wielding an axe on the ground madly. |
|
xiăo jí xún shēng zhăo qù， nàshi chúfáng。
yī gè nánrén zhèng bèi duì tā， shŏulĭ huī zhe yī bă fŭzi， fēngkuáng de wăng dìshang zá qù。 |
|
|
一下，两下… 小吉的心狂跳不已。 她背贴着墙壁， 一步步蹭进房间。 |
One, two … Xiaoji’s heart was beating madly. As quiet as she could, she tiptoed into the room leaning her back against the wall. |
|
yīxià， liăngxià… xiăo jí de xīn kuáng tiào bùyĭ。
tā bèi tiē zhe qiángbì， yī bùbù cèng jìn fángjiān。 |

看清楚了！ 男人砸的是地上的一把金色的小锁！ |
It was clearer now! The man was hacking at a little golden lock on the floor! |
|
kàn qīngchu le！ nánrén zá de shì dìshang de yī bă jīnsè de xiăo suŏ！ |
|
|
锁开了。 男人低头掀起木门，跳了进去。 |
As soon as the lock was knocked open, the man opened the wooden door and jumped in. |
|
suŏ kāi le。 nánrén dītóu xiānqĭ mù mén， tiào le jìnqù。 |
|
| 转眼间，他吃力地抱着一个女人上来。 | In a brief moment, he emerged again holding a woman in his arm. |
| zhuănyăn jiān， tā chīlì de bào zhe yī gè nǚrén shànglái。 | |
|
他把女人轻轻放在地上， 摇晃她，大声叫她的名字。 |
He laid the woman on the ground gently, shook her, and cried out her name. |
|
tā bă nǚrén qīngqīng fàng zài dìshang，
yáohuàng tā， dàshēng jiào tā de míngzi。 |
|
|
小吉惊恐地看着这一切， 几乎连呼吸都快停止。 |
Xiaoji watched the whole thing with horror to the point that she felt she could hardly breathe. |
|
xiăo jí jīngkŏng de kàn zhe zhè yīqiè， jīhū lián hūxī dōu kuài tíngzhĭ。 |
|
|
当男人抬起头，小吉能看清他的脸时， 恐惧最终占胜了她。 |
When the man raised up his head, Xiaoji finally recognized his face. She was overwhelmed by horror. |
|
dāng nánrén táiqĭ tóu， xiăo jí néng kànqīng tā de liăn shí，
kŏngjù zuìzhōng zhàn shèng le tā。 |

“怎么回事？＂ 一位女老师在门外大声问。 |
“What happened?” A woman teacher questioned from the other side of the door. |
|
“ zěnmehuíshì？＂ yī wèi nǚ lăoshī zài ménwài dàshēng wèn。 |
|

安亚把手放在小吉的背上， 轻声细语地安慰她。 |
Anya stroked her hand on Xiaoji’s back and comforted her in a tender tone. |
|

|
女老师过来看了一眼，安慰了小吉几句， |
The teacher had a look at Xiaoji and comforted her a little. Then she yawned and complained, “Do you girls have to tell ghost stories? Now no one gets a decent sleep.” |
|

她出去后， 走廊上的门又一扇扇关上。 |
After she stepped out, the doors along the hallway closed shut one after another. |
|
tā chūqù hòu， zŏuláng shàng de mén yòu yī shàn shàn guānshàng。 |
|
|
女孩儿们各自回到自己的床上， 灯熄了，房间又重回黑暗。 |
Girls went back to their own beds. Lights were out and darkness returned. |
|
nǚháir men gèzì huídào zìjĭ de chuáng shàng， dēng xī le， fángjiān yòu chónghuí hēi’àn。 |
|
|
小吉躺在床上，看着天花板， 脸上还挂着未干的泪痕。 |
Xiaoji laid in bed with eyes staring at the ceiling. Her face was still wet with tears. |
|
xiăo jí tăng zài chuáng shàng， kàn zhe tiānhuābăn，
liăn shàng hái guà zhe wèi gān de lèihén。 |

她睡不着。刚才的梦太可怕了， 梦镜中的男人， 不是别人，正是她的爸爸！ |
She couldn’t fall in sleep. The dream she had was just too horrible. The man in the dream was no one but her own Dad! |
