你回來,是要更正自己判錯的那筆債The ruling you signed
你扮演負責覆核舊案的「清算人」。四年前,你漏看一頁卷宗,讓一筆早已付清的債仍算在女孩蘇伊身上。當年十三歲的她,被迫替死人洗布,一做就是近四年。You are the Clearing Officer, an official who reviews debt records and issues rulings. Four years ago, you missed a page in a case file. Your ruling left an already-paid debt on a thirteen-year-old girl’s record. She has spent nearly four years washing burial shrouds in the Shelter's vats.
再過三個月,她就滿十八歲。按避難樓的規矩,未清的債會把她變成終身奴工,往後一輩子都不能離開。She turns eighteen in three months. Under the Shelter's rules, any unpaid debt will then bind her to forced labour for life. She will never be free to leave.
你重返避難樓,要推翻自己當年的錯判。樓梯口有持槍守衛,硬闖行不通。這裡用牌局裁決爭議,連管事的人也得遵守結果。贏下牌局,才能更正舊帳,讓他們打開通往上一層的門。You have returned to overturn your own ruling. Armed guards block the stairs. In the Shelter, disputes are settled at the card table—and even those in charge must honour the result. Win, and you can correct the old accounts and open the way to the next floor.
