最佳出价（2013）

令我好奇的不是东西本身
It’s not the object itself that arouses my curiosity
而是它的矛盾之处
but its contradiction.
矛盾之处？
It’s contradiction?
你看
Look…
它这样座落在潮湿的地上
I found it in this position in contact with damp flooring
但生锈的是齿轮上缘
but the rust is all along the top of the cogs
跟湿地没有接触
nowhere near the damp.
这代表什么？
What does all this mean?
它在那里并不久
That the object plainly hadn’t been there very long.
可能是在别处生的锈
And probably got rusty in some other place
或是被人翻过面
or someone turned the thing upside down.
就这样 只是用处不大的推论
That’s all, nothing more than a useless exercise in deduction.

Hi Robert, did you manage it?
你怀疑过我吗？
Did you ever doubt me?

没问题
Count on it.

Can I give you a kiss?
当然可以 亲亲我最行了
Yes, you can! That is one thing I am good at!
晚安
Good evening.
晚安
Good evening.
