A wangren on Lung Shing Road who loved peeping through keyholes until he became one. Guilsa stole his key; once the player returns it, he opens the door to the Mirror Chamber.
Keyhole Man speaks 6 times in the script, in Lung Shing Road.
Stage: Lung Shing Road
Each block is one message window, with a link to the place in the script where it appears.
Sorry. I didn't set up the barrier or anything. The key was stolen by guilü. That's why it wouldn't open! But it seems you got the key back for me, so all is well! Once you reach the mirror chamber, I'll open the door and let you do your thing, but you had better watch out for that compass doll once you're in.
うううう、僕は別に結界を張っていたわけじゃないんだ。大事な鍵を鬼律に取られてしまって…それで開かなくなっていたんだ。あんたが取り戻してくれたからもう平気さ。迷わずに八卦鏡の部屋の前までたどり着けたら、部屋の扉を開けてやるよ。…コンパスドールには気を付けるんだよ。
(No response.)
何も起こらない。
Chungking Garden's bagua mirror is back here and on your left.
Once you see the bagua mirror, let the compass doll realign it.
重慶花園の八卦鏡はこの奥にあるんだ。入って左の方だよ。
そこで、そのコンパスドールを使うといいよ。
Did you know that there are times when I don't believe I'm a keyhole?
I loved peeking through keyholes into all kinds of rooms, but now that I'm a keyhole myself... what am I supposed to peek through?!
Quite the conundrum, that... Well, Fu Shin Court's bagua mirror is in the room behind me.
僕は時々、鍵穴としての自分が実感できなくなることがあるんだ。
昔は鍵穴からいろんな部屋を覗き見するのが好きだったのに、その自分が鍵穴になってしまうと…いったいなにを覗くといいんだろう…
なんだかややこしいよね。さ、富善苑の八卦鏡はこの後ろの部屋だよ。
You suuure took your time, huh. I went through the keyholes, so getting here was a breeze. From keyhole... to keeeyhooole... It feels weird, being a keyhole who goes through other keyholes. But anyhow, Bailey Street's bagua mirror is through the door.
ずーっと遠回りしてきたんだよね、そうだよね…僕は鍵穴を通って簡単に、ここまで来られたんだけど…そうさ…鍵穴を渡って…鍵穴の僕が、鍵穴を抜けるなんてね、妙な気分だよ、ほんとに。庇利路の八卦鏡は、そこの扉から入った部屋さ。
The mirror chamber's back here, but I... can't see in... Seriously, it won't work! The keyhole on the door is the same as any other, only...
I can't become one with the keyhole. Some strong force is intercepting me!
Thankfully, I think you can get in with your access card. Go realign the last bagua mirror!
この奥にも、八卦鏡の部屋があるんだけど…そこは僕にも…どうしようもできないんだ。扉には、同じような鍵穴が付いているんだけれど…
その鍵穴と気持ちをひとつにできない…強い力が邪魔をしているんだよ。
ためしに、あんたのアクセスカードを使ってみるといい。八卦鏡の部屋は、ここが最後だよ。
