第02章 夜與自動手記人偶（3/8）
薇爾莉特·伊芙加登 ever after
然而，迪特福利特還有一些他想說的話。
At the call of restraint, Violet』s feet halted mid-step. She then gazed at Dietfried. 「Why?」 her eyes were asking.
聽到克制的呼喚，薇爾莉特的腳中間停了下來。然後她盯著迪特福利特看。「為什麼？她的眼睛在問道。
Choosing to leave must have been her own way of showing respect. Considering the current and the previous relationship between two of them, it was a sound judgement. Hence, she stared at him presumptuous and mutely.
選擇離開一定是她自己表示尊重的方式。考慮到他們兩者之間目前和以前的關係，這是一個合理的判斷。因此，她沉靜地盯著他看。

Just a question like this was exceptionally challenging for him. If it were anyone else, he would surely be able to ask as easily as breathing. He could also boast that he was the one who had painted it. However, only with this woman was it so difficult.
就像這樣的問題對他來說是非常具有挑戰性的。如果是其他人，他肯定能像呼吸一樣容易地問這個問題。他還可以誇耀說，是他畫過它的人。然而，只有和這個女人在一起才是如此的困難。
