47 The Calm Before the Storm

Chapter 47 The Calm Before the Storm After a quick discussion about the tactics they'd employ once inside the control room at the top of the Spire, everybody wished Josephine luck and then piled into the cramped service elevator. Peanut pressed the buttons marked G and 99, the doors slid closed and they started to go up. Ten seconds later, the lift stopped at the ground floor and the doors opened. As promised, 72 was there, waiting to join them. Little-Bit gave the robot a big hug as they squeezed into the lift. "OK," said Peanut as the doors closed. "We're all here now.

第47章 暴风雨前的平静 大伙快速商量好攻入尖塔顶层控制室后的战术，所有人都祝约瑟芬好运，接着一同挤进了狭窄的货运电梯。 皮纳特按下标着G和99的按钮，电梯门滑闭后，轿厢开始向上爬升。 十秒钟后，电梯停在一楼，门打开了。 就像约定好的那样，72已经在这里等着加入他们了。 小不点挤进拥挤的电梯时，给了机器人一个大大的拥抱。 “好了，”电梯门关上后，皮纳特开口说道。 “我们所有人都到齐了。”

I think everybody knows their roles and what they need to do once we get to the top, right?" Everyone nodded silently, nervous about the task at hand. Peanut continued, putting on her bravest voice. "72, we'll need you to tie up 67 and Alan once we've grabbed them. Can you do that?" Affirmative," replied the robot. The digital readout of the floor numbers was changing rapidly. 32, 33, 34, 35... "OK," Peanut said, taking a deep breath. "Is everybody ready?" 56, 57, 58, 59... I was born ready," said Rockwell, unconvincingly. 70, 71, 72... I spent twenty years in jail thinking about ways to stop White," said Dad, "and now that we've finally got him in custody, I'm not about to let a rogue RAZER carry on from where he left off. Let's do this!" 96, 97, 98... 99. There was a collective intake of breath as the elevator pinged and its doors slid open. "OK," whispered Leo. "Here we go..."

“我想大家都清楚自己的分工，也知道到顶层之后该做什么，对不对？” 所有人都默默点头，对眼前的任务感到十分紧张。 皮纳特继续说道，努力拿出最勇敢的语气。 “72，等我们抓住67和艾伦之后，需要你把他们绑起来。 你能做到吗？” “没问题，”机器人回答道。 电梯的楼层数字显示屏在飞快地跳动变化。 32、33、34、35……“好了，”皮纳特深吸一口气说道。 “大家都准备好了吗？” 56、57、58、59…… “我生下来就准备好了，”罗克韦尔说，语气却没什么底气。 70、71、72…… “我在监狱里待了二十年，一直想着怎么阻止怀特，”爸爸说，“现在我们终于把他关押起来了，我绝不能让失控的RAZER接着他没干完的坏事做下去。 咱们动手吧！” 96、97、98……99。 电梯“叮”的一声停下，门滑开时，所有人都不约而同倒吸了一口凉气。 “好了，”里奥轻声说。 “要开始了……”
