Scene Start

Location: 租界の公園: Settlement Park

Narration:
家族連れや恋人同士で賑わう公園で、僕は再びあの男と再会した。
My translation: At the park, crowded with families and lovers, I once again met that man.

Mao:
「やぁ、ライ。　またあったね
My translation: Hey there, Rai. We meet again.

おおっと。　ボクはここには住んでないからね」
My translation: Hey now. It’s not because I live here, you know.

Narration:
男は、『この近くに住んでいるのか？』という僕の考えを先読みしていた。
My translation: The man had once again read my thoughts, for I had just been thinking, “Does he live near here?”

Mao:
「可能性を予測して対策を考える。　賢明な判断だよねぇ。
My translation: You’re thinking about possible ways to counteract my power. Smart decision.

ボクには通用しないけどね
My translation: …Although that won’t work with me. (Unsure)

ところで、ライ。　君は人間って好き？」
My translation: By the way, Rai. Is there anyone who you love?

Narration:
（好きでも嫌いでもないな）
My translation: (Thoughts) I neither love nor hate anyone.

Mao:
「そっか。　じゃあ、教えてあげようか。　人間なんてさぁ、好きになるもんじゃないよ」
My translation: I see. Then, shall I tell you? That people aren’t something you should like or love.

Narration:
男は、子供を抱いたカップルを見つめた。
My translation: The man looked over at a couple who were embracing a child.

Mao:
「たとえばさぁ、あのむつまじい家族。　幸せそうだよねぇ。　……でも、あれ、男は子供の父親じゃないよ」
My translation: For example, take that happy family over there. They look quite happy…But, what’s this, that man isn’t really the father of that child.

Narration:
今度は、ベンチに座ったカップルを見つめる。
My translation: He then looked over at a couple sitting on a nearby bench.

Mao:
「あのカップルは互いに本命がいる。　なのにふたりともそれを言い出せず、惰性で付き合っているんだ」
My translation: That couple over there mutually desire one another. And yet, these two can’t break the ice between them either, wanting the other person to suggest it instead, out of habit.

「いいかい、ライ。　人間は汚い生き物なんだよ
My translation: Do you get it, Rai? People are filthy creatures.

だから信用しちゃいけないよ。　バカを見るからね
My translation: That’s why you should never trust in people. Because you would only make yourself look like an idiot.

ただし、Ｃ.Ｃ.だけは別だからね。　彼女ほど清らかな人間はいないんだ。　彼女の心は無音なんだ」
My translation: But, only C.C. is different from all that. There isn’t any pure person in this world like her. Her mind is silent.

Narration:
男は言いたいことを言うと、満足そうにその場を立ち去っていった。
My translation: Having said what he wanted to say and seeming satisfied, the man then took his leave and left.
