No. 262 Arriving at the Truth 真実への到達

Ayame Park

イ01

始末する他　ないようね

…さよなら

!?

This isn't ideal, but you know too much.

…Goodbye.

!?

…イージスを知る　邪魔者は

生かす気はない　ということですか

…So anyone who knows the truth of Aegis is a liability to you.

And liabilities must be dealt with. Does that sum it up?

イ02

×Chihiro

あなたが護身用に　欲しいと言ったので

私が用意した銃です

I specifically acquired this gun for your purposes.

You had concerns about self-defense.

イ03

×Chihiro

あなたがその銃で　私を撃つのかしら

Now you're going to use it to shoot me.

イ04

△Phaser→Chihiro

安全のため　あなたと私は撃てない

そういう設定に　してあります

For safety reason, neither one of us can be shot with this gun.

I configured it very specifically.

イ05

△Phaser

銃の使用履歴では　発砲の時刻は

先生の死亡推定時刻と　ほぼ一致する

あなたは…

この銃で　先生を撃った

This gun records the time of its last discharge.

And that time looks to be a near match for Ms. Morimura’s estimated time of death.

Which suggests…

You used this gun to murder her.

イ06

×Chihiro

ドローンで森村先生を　監視していましたね

あの日の現金の　減り具合からみて

タクシーを利用して　現場に向かった

You yourself were using the drone to keep tabs on Ms. Morimura. Weren’t you?

Based off of your expenses for that day…

I’d presume you took a taxi to the crime scene.

今まで　とぼけて…

Were you just playing dumb this whole time…?

イ07

×Chihiro

私が博士の方の　森村千尋だと…

What gave away that I was the professor, and not her?

イ08

△Keitaro Miura→Chihiro

三浦がここで　あなたを見つけた時です

あなたは三浦を　優秀な設計技師だと言った

だが設計技師は　2188年の三浦だ

It was back when Miura found you here.

You described Miura as an excellent design engineer.

But the Miura of 2188 was the design engineer. Not him.

17番機兵のAIだった　ミウラです

彼は記録の存在も　私に教えてくれました

That I learned through Miura, the AI of Sentinel No. 17.

He also told me about the existence of the logs.

イ09

×Chihiro

殺さないなら　閉じ込める？

If you're not killing me, I assume you're at least locking me up?

だが感情的に恨みを　晴らしても

起こった結果には　何も影響がない

…それなら私は

真実により近づく方を　選択する

私は知りたい

先生も知らない　この計画のその先を…

But giving in to my emotional reaction wouldn’t solve anything.

Vengeance isn't going to bring her back.

So, with that in mind...

I would rather choose the path that gets me closer to the truth.

That is what I want now.

To see what lies at the end of all this. To see what she never could.

イ10

×Chihiro

和泉十郎は自分の　趣味ではないと言ったが…

博士と2188年の　和泉は深い関係にあった

セクター1にあなたと　和泉がいる

意図的な配置からも　それはわかる

あなたは記憶移植を　設定する前に死んでいる

おそらく…それで和泉が…

あなたの意を　汲んで成し遂げた…

You made it clear Juro Izumi was not your “cup of tea”…

Yet you and Izumi shared an intimate relationship in the year 2188.

That was clear enough from all the evidence I found.

Even the placement seemed intentional. You and Izumi, together in Sector 1.

You died before you could set up the memory transplant.

At that point… I can only assume…

Izumi sympathized with you, and helped carry out your vision.

イ11

×Chihiro

なぜ…あなたも　記憶を移すのですか？

But you… Why are you so intent on transplanting your memory?

導く者が　必要だからよ

指導者がいなければ　人は仲違いを始める

あのコロニーの　最後のように…

There has to be a leader.

Without someone to guide them, teams dissolve into fear, spite, resentment…

It’d be the colony all over again.

なるほど　…予想通り

あなたは計画に　対し真摯だ

I see… As I suspected.

Your devotion to this goal is inspiring, in some ways.

イ12

×Chihiro

あなたの望み通り　ターミナルを残します

イージスで　全てを塞ぎ

ループを　閉じたりはしない

We’ll leave the terminals alone for you.

We won't let Aegis seal everything off.

Your loop would still be viable.

確かに計画通りには　戻せない

だが考えて　みてください

最終工程を終えた　その先にもおそらく

苦難や問題は　次々と待ち受ける

我々が　未知なる問題にも

自力で対処できると　証明できれば

あなたの計画を　引き継ぐ

その資質があるとは　考えられませんか

It’d be impossible to revert to your original plan without some compromise.

But consider this:

Even this final phase won't truly be the end.

We’ll have plenty of struggles beyond it. Plenty more pain ahead of us.

If we can prove to you that we will overcome that…

If we prove to you that we can face the unknown…

Then are we not worthy to take up your cause?

Inheriting your goal, and seeing it through?

邪魔はせず　戦わせてくれませんか？

失敗なら　リセットで構いません

So my proposal is this: Let us fight our war. No sabotage.

If we fail, then I could hardly object to a reset anyway.

あなたに　勝ち目はないわよ

You don’t stand a chance.
