《在洛圣都当警察》EP.9——CET6特辑
2021年11月某日,谢罗尔警员正在自己的工位上摸鱼.
她坐在电脑前面,戴着耳机听着歌,纤细的手指正在键盘上飞快地敲打着什么.
噼里啪啦的键盘声在办公室里显得尤为嘈杂,不过谢罗尔警员似乎过于投入,并没有注意到这件事.
“哟,这不谢罗尔大小姐么,”坐在她对面的麦德琳警员走了过来,把胳膊搭在谢罗尔的肩膀上. “我还不知道您会来坐班儿呢.”
如梦初醒的谢罗尔连忙摘下耳机,左手亲昵地在麦德琳脸颊上拍了拍. “···抱歉打扰到你午休了,M.”
“我说小C啊,”麦德琳弯下腰,搂住了她的脖子,“你还没回答我的问题呢.”
“···主要是······”
“主要是什么?”麦德琳笑着问她. 谢罗尔能感受到麦德琳呼出的热气拂过自己的脸颊,她不禁脸色一红.
“主要是想见你了嘛!”谢罗尔脱口而出.
“这还差不多.”麦德琳揉了揉她的头发. “对了,你在敲什么东西啊?还怪投入的,键盘敲的噼里啪啦的,不知道的还以为你在和哪个红脖子高强度对线呢. 这也不像你会干出来的事情呀.”
谢罗尔往椅背上一靠,喝了口凉掉的咖啡. “其实也没啥,”她指了指电脑屏幕,“就是一个我在布特[捏他Twitter]上认识的小朋友.”
麦德琳凑近屏幕看了看. “Hua Li?好奇怪的名字!”
“其实他叫Li Hua,他说他的姓在名前面. 哦对,Li Hua是一名来自中国的中学生. ”谢罗尔说着,打开了一张图片,“这是他拿汉字写的Li Hua······”
“我之前听说汉字也叫 ‘方块字’来着,今天我长知识了···”麦德琳仔细端详着照片,评论道.
“嗯哼,我觉得还蛮好看的说.”谢罗尔称赞道.
“不过······你一个二十多岁的大姐姐,是怎么和一个十来岁的中学生聊到一块去的?该不会······”麦德琳故意做了个鬼脸.
“可得了吧你,”谢罗尔在她胸口锤了一下. “只是他对于我从事的职业比较感兴趣罢了. 而且他正在做一项不同国家之间职业的小研究,希望我能提供给他一点思路和想法.”
“还真是个好学的孩子呢······好啦,我就不打扰你了,记得四点上工哦.”
等麦德琳警员离开后,谢罗尔理了理自己被揉乱的头发,然后接着敲起字来. 不过这次她的动作轻了很多.
大约过了半个钟头,谢罗尔敲击键盘的手指总算停了下来. 她长舒了一口气,然后点击了屏幕上的发送键.
总算忙完“副业”的她懒洋洋地拿起手机,准备看一下时间. 突然间,她好像火烧眉毛一样从座位上跳了起来. “我的天!怎么都这个点儿了!”
她匆忙揣上手机,抄起桌子上的车钥匙,又把手枪塞进枪套,连电脑都没关就往外跑.
在她的电脑屏幕上写着这样一段发送出去的话:
[英文对照在最下面哦]
亲爱的李华:
很高兴知道你对警察这个职业有着很高的兴趣!在你的上一封来信里,你问及我们日常的工作还有执法的方式,就让我给你描述一下吧.
首先,这绝对不是一个容易的话题,这我必须要承认. 不过对于我来说,执勤的大部分时间还是很平静的. 通常情况下我会开着我的警车在辖区内转悠上一个半天,然后等待下一位同事接替我的岗位. 不,平静并不代表我就可以因此松下弦来,紧急事件随时都可能发生,我们警员也必须做到随叫随到. 在这一点上,我相信天下所有警员都是一样的,不是吗?有求必应,有召必来,为秩序和安定而奋斗,我们生来就是为了服务和保护人民的!对于这一点,我十分骄傲.
在我看来,警察肩负着更沉重的职责和更大的风险. 据我粗浅的了解,在遥远的大洋另一边,在你的家乡,枪支是被严格管控的. 这真令我羡慕不已. 在我身处的城市,洛圣都,几乎每个月都会发生警员中枪的案子. 我热爱我的工作,我也会毫不犹豫地为保护人民而替他们挡下那颗致命的子弹,但是看着自己的兄弟姐妹倒在保护城市的第一线,姐姐我心里实在难受……抱歉,不该说这么低沉的话题的. Li,或许我是第一个这样和你说的人,你生活在一个繁荣昌盛、和平向上的国度,一定要珍惜,好吗?或许,下次你在回家路上遇到站岗执勤的警察时,你的心里会多一分感激?
我想说的暂时就这么多了. 先聊到这里吧,姐姐马上要上岗执勤了. 对了,如果你以后有来洛圣都的计划的话,一定要提前和姐姐联系啊,我会尽量为你提供帮助的!
——真诚的 洛圣都警局一级警员 Cheryl
[English Version of Cheryl's Message]
Dear Li Hua,
I'm more than delighted to know that you are quite interested in my Police work. And you mentioned in your previous letter that you'd wish to know a bit more about my daily routine and about how we make things work here. Well, let me explain.
First of all, i gotta admit, this ain't no easy topic to discuss. But for me, my part of the work is mostly uneventful. Normally I'd drive my police car and patrol my precinct for half a day, until another colleague of mine relief me from my duties. But being quiet and all does not mean i can let my guard down. Emergency situation can take place any minute, we police officers should always respond to them immediately. About this part, I think all police officers around the world are on the same page, yes? To answer every call, to be there when we are needed, to fight for order and stability, we are born to serve and protect the people. I'm very proud of this one right here.
In my professional opinion, police officers shoulder heavier burdens and greater responsibilities. According to the little info I know, on the other side of the ocean, in your homeland, firearms are strictly managed and controlled. Oh I'm so very jealous. Where i come from, Los Santos, you hear about officers getting shot every month. I of course love my job, and I would stop a deadly bullet for my people without hesitation. But watching my brothers and sisters fall face down on duty, it's just... too much for big sis, ya know?... Sorry, shouldn't have bring this up. Li, i might be the first one to say this to you, that you live in a peaceful and prosper nation, make it count, yes? Maybe next time when you see an officer on your way home, you'd have a bit more gratitude inside your heart?
This is all I have to say right now. Let's stop here for now, big sis got duty calls. By the way, if you have any plans coming to Los Santos in the future, please tell me in advance, I would do my upmost best to help you out!
——Most sincerely,
Cheryl, Los Santos Police Department, Class I officer
