[zh-] James Bond is [2] inside the lobby of the [-a] auditorium which has flooded. He runs up to the 門 saloon doors that has a 閘 sluice gate attached to it and shuts it so that the flooded water stays outside of the lobby. He rides atop an 甲 armadillo and goes around trying to shut the other 閘 sluice gates so that he can save the performance that is going on. It's a top secret mission.
