迴響的隆隆聲如同夢境般遠去。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3V11v6AEA
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpCwyoa4yG
從開出的小縫裡，一道狹窄的光切開了無邊無際的黑暗。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1P99zLzIDc
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPBibJisfu
杜若四肢著地地爬出櫥櫃，然後回過頭托著紫藤的肩膀離開那片狹小的黑暗。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgujeLjNAnZ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9WLUCYa4w
兩人並著肩在階梯旁仰起頭喘著氣，久違地照進眼裡的燈光刺眼眩目，但再怎麼說也比不見天日的黑暗要來得令人安心。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJAlCBJG5r
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwWd8ces2v
連沙華會都靜謐下來，就代表連凌晨也快要結束了吧。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YE9yFC3FO
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNu9vTeZYLy
就連喘息的時間也如同光明般狹窄，兩人不可能在這再休息到早晨來臨。於是，杜若一感覺到力氣開始回流到四肢時，就起身伸出手牽起虛弱的紫藤。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyI5Yl9ueV
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDr8n3eafPr
「走吧。我們一起回去。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4JNB3JkRi
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQpefls9t6
這麼說了之後，杜若便鑽進紫藤的脅下，用窄小的肩頭努力撐起紫藤向前。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8Aq9FyXSn
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKkZUDXbtY
一路上，兩人就這樣攙扶著彼此，幸運地毫無阻礙便回到了西區。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DbtVviH9s
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmdIb4Gtb1
為了處理傷口，杜若讓紫藤靠到了床板上頭。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YPPHKtKU4
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs5ucLpX6Z
「嗚……！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXopt8ajFo3
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEcniTqXyp
消毒藥水碰到傷口的劇痛，讓紫藤吃痛地叫出悶聲。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfidN14b86V
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52YqSI9Min
「很痛嗎……？」杜若停下動作，擔憂地看向紫藤。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViL8CUsuaF
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICngLPxsum
回到西區的路上，紫藤甚至虛弱到就連話都沒辦法說了。所以哪怕只是一聲也好，杜若也想要聽見紫藤的聲音。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRgF12HVTF
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZ54treMxK
而痛楚彷彿把紫藤的魂給拉了回來，宛如大夢初醒般地看了杜若和手中的棉花棒後，紫藤才喘著氣、略略地頷首。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzgz856V26
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwzfe7LFuB
「……我還可以忍。」說完，紫藤打直手臂。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqT3XoV79R
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixwryfPg4m
杜若點點頭，卻宛如做錯了事一般地垂下眼簾。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYFYFlBOAg
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBNeuOT99w
如果不是自己想要聽信墨駒，也不會讓墨駒有機可趁了——但現在後悔也沒有用，照顧受傷的紫藤才是眼下應該做的事。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpVJcFRjbl
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPwsF8CcAa
「那、再忍耐一下就好。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKC9YD6BmJ2
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvoBvMnFey
「呼、呼……嗚——！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjFPf3c6Yi
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAMTl9s2vw
紫藤試著吸氣來緩和疼痛，卻還是沒辦法不吃痛地發出聲音來。清潔並上完藥後，杜若小心地用紗布蓋起那道駭人的傷口並纏上繃帶，原本純白的繃帶立刻就被染成了一片暗紅。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqyq63yqSF
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw7HPeE8It
現在只能做這樣的應急處理，等到明天還是得去醫院才行。幸好公用醫療箱裡頭還有這些基本的醫療用品，不然就這樣放著傷口，今晚紫藤恐怕連躺下都會有困難。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxb7ZspPfo
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QyxqeQpGj
疼痛過了幾次呼吸才終於緩和下來。杜若拿來水杯靠在紫藤的嘴巴上，讓紫藤小口小口地補充水分。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjBfaCB2DL
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfl4HwnqtTk
滋潤冰涼地滑過喉間，直到此時、紫藤才終於有種放下心來的感覺。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9JpT2z79O
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsMes2x5St
「還要喝嗎？」杜若捧著還有一半的水杯，輕柔地問。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoUj69eCys
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOBvYx8JaU
杜若關心的神情就好像是流經喉頭的水那樣沁入了紫藤的胸口。於是紫藤點點頭，再次把嘴湊了過去。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdu3bfXe9s
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGo4UTj0FST
等到杯子空了、正想伸手擦乾嘴角時，杜若就先一步用手帕抹上了紫藤的嘴角。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJL8OuZwwvi
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsW7Vdh9GIO
「……謝謝。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbDHq7tomZ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrhZC0KEQQ
「不會啦，現在也輪到我照顧紫藤了。」杜若收起手帕，露出了彷彿可以烘乾衣服的溫暖笑容。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbH7cmA1YEe
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqLKJKPIzt
明明、對方不久前才在自己的面前殺了人，但現在看著杜若的側臉，紫藤卻盡只感到安心跟鬆了一口氣的感覺一湧而上。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWb36QYI2Nt
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtb5Ha4OSJ9
是自己終於開始習慣了嗎？那時，紫藤的手上就已經流滿鮮血，卻只有砸在墨駒臉上時所沾上的溼黏感格外鮮明。就好像在入睡前的一場夢境，令紫藤感到有些恍惚。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKrFaE4Iqu
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEVHjkq1bT
不過，這無疑都是事實。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkamBjtaBP
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZGDzsmpk7
掌心中，那枚墨駒沒能拿回去的、鑲著淡紫色寶石的銀戒就是最好的證據。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqf7lYkmAW
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuWAYzVloH
紫藤壓根也沒想到有能夠尋回這枚戒指的一天。對紫藤來說、只受這點傷就找回了它簡直是太划算了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtyLqZB9iZ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyj8UbfhmQ
「紫藤、這個戒指到底是……？」杜若好奇地看著手中的戒指，疑惑地歪過頭。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppvsIHNeMe
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSigpSmqLF
沉默了半晌，紫藤才慢慢地開口。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YFrdlJGR5
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYnBvzbSjD
「是我媽媽的遺物。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jXNyR7DIc
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0Z7KBnRpv
戒指的內緣刻著一行寫著母親名字的小字，證明了這就是那枚獨一無二的戒指。雖然紫藤對父親沒有任何印象，但母親卻經常以懷念的面容提起關於父親的事情。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuEjYi6vVg
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQb9mPgCvn
「咦……？那為什麼會在墨駒的手裡呀？」杜若不假思索地問道。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovuk204pTx
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ982M4fMaMy
「我也不知道。」紫藤搖搖頭，黯然地闔上雙眼。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNY5o5Z2uz9
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSGjPaJPqg
紫藤從來不曾對同輩的人說過這些事，但現在、紫藤卻覺得讓杜若知道也無妨。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFs2RIdidj
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYnfxnJyDL
「可是媽媽他、就是被沙華會的人給殺死的。」就好像在試圖壓下傷口的灼熱似地，紫藤輕撫著前臂的紗布，緩緩地繼續說道：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwimAZtua7C
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OSWUN5w9H
「小時候，我的媽媽曾經向沙華會借過錢。但最後，媽媽卻因為還不出錢來……而被沙華會給殺了。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOWaQKqQOG
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoDURGlq8s
媽媽並不是沒辦法還出錢來，只是在最後一刻、錢竟然被劫走了。紫藤怎麼想都覺得奇怪、為什麼就這麼剛好在那種時候？如今，紫藤認為那一切全都是沙華會的伎倆，他們根本沒有想讓母親還清債務的意思，只想在那一年裡壓榨完母親所有的心力、等到沒價值了就宰殺掉而已。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSncWd0QF9
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnhx1zkygn
「這就是那時候、他們從媽媽的身上搶走的東西之一。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HxE9WiG7m
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Nd1F7FiyP
紫藤至今——至死都不會忘記母親在自己的眼前被殺掉的畫面。年幼的自己只能無力地躲在一旁，看著母親殘忍地被一刀刀殘殺至死。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIoaDCbjg3
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoOYU1bimO
從那時起，濺在臉上的那朵紅花就已經在紫藤的心頭生根。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡest3aofdBa
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3krHV9998
只是，紫藤也從未想過竟然會在途中找到母親生前的遺物，紫藤覺得自己簡直幸運的無以復加。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKT9SBmgNcr
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckDXfaJqZJ
「原來……這是對紫藤來說這麼重要的東西啊。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhoOavsc6I
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWWPLOv4bp
「嗯。」紫藤在胸前連同戒指握緊了拳頭。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1YvtIVFSd
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOKtfJdvoM
對紫藤來說，媽媽所留下的東西沒有一個不是珍貴的。無論是這個房間、髮飾、還是這枚戒指，都是媽媽曾經存在過的證明。哪怕再也微不足道，紫藤也想要盡可能地將它們攬在手中。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡur79yzL9TZ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeX05mabCJ
自己已經不想要再失去任何東西了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlXZ7MCEO4
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwp3zOBFgV
「紫藤的媽媽是個什麼樣的人、可以跟我說說嗎？」杜若露出了既好奇又害怕冒犯的眼神、試探地探出腦袋。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4V2dhjZMr
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBR0jiTMDs
紫藤思考地垂下了眼簾幾秒。而再次睜開眼時，紫藤已經將目光放到了不知遙遠的何處。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LIkMlN4S1
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xggftGENQ
「媽媽他——」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eY2Qb0q6K
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DNolVPbvp
以這句話做為開場白後，紫藤便將那些早已被自己翻到泛黃的回憶給拿了出來。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSlrNMJUYL
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UVe8BRTyS
小時候，紫藤最常從街上的大叔大嬸嘴聽到的一句話就是「跟媽媽很像」。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1jk3IHYbH
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIlPX25qBj
同樣有著一頭的黑色長髮、話也同樣不怎麼多。而唯一不同的，就是媽媽是個非常堅強的女性，總是用那粗糙而修長的手把紫藤給攬在身後。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcwMjqb2fD
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8B5EjOCBd
而媽媽在南區有間小小的、買賣布料的店面，小時候的紫藤最喜歡的就是跟在媽媽後頭一起做生意。儘管有時候會因為笨手笨腳而挨其他大叔大嬸的罵，但那卻是紫藤最為快樂的一段時光。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxPTTFZUpV
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaMiEuMjtZ
只是在紫藤逐漸長大後，媽媽卻漸漸不希望紫藤跟著自己，而想要把紫藤託付給學校。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUaAP7PG4A
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOzPffC5XJ
但紫藤一點都不喜歡學校。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXLh7clXt2
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxDUgskYJ9
比起那些吵吵鬧鬧又喜歡惡作劇的小孩子，紫藤更喜歡跟在可靠卻寡言的媽媽後頭，幫忙結帳、整理或是裁剪布料。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAwHUAYGg6
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXvaqFlsrS
對當時的紫藤而言，媽媽這麼做就好像是想要把自己給拋棄一樣。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nliNn0B7e
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVV6MyllxeX
於是紫藤頭一次跟媽媽吵架了。那是一場紫藤單方面地對著媽媽出氣的架，從頭到尾媽媽都只是靜靜地傾聽著紫藤的任性，偶爾像在思考著什麼地低下頭來。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0Hr3AfGnq
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17Qu61Z4Th
而在那之後，媽媽就再也沒有要紫藤去上學了。只是摸摸紫藤的頭以後，就像以前一樣，讓磕磕絆絆的紫藤跟在自己的後頭做生意。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnXfDp3Vs4
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoftIwsP4Bd
嗯，這樣就夠了。那時的紫藤只有這麼單純的滿足。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTVy2lfW2o
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsewDrJe7L
然而這樣的日子持續不久。在一個秋天的傍晚、鉛炭鎮發生了一起極其嚴重的意外。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTs16ev1tA
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYZ5tzyfBW
那是一起倒塌事件。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjw9nVVVj4F
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1KNoODP1c
由於鉛炭鎮的樓房蓋的十分緊密，因此只要一棟樓倒塌，便極容易引發連鎖效應。那起倒塌事件就現在的記載，足足有將近二十棟的樓房倒塌、傷亡數更是難以記載。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pgXNxoA77
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXofSKbUXb
雖然沒有受到倒塌事件的直接傷害，但媽媽的店面卻因此全毀，讓兩人頓時失去了幾乎所有的財產。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsJHYtUlJN
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPKCyXGMie
那之後就如紫藤所說，媽媽為了生存而選擇向沙華會借貸。在那一年裡，媽媽幾乎從未闔眼休息、只為了賺回損失的財產。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjJ223rpo1
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7pa5xe8rL
那時的媽媽早已面容枯槁。而殘忍地將其心力、金錢、生命盡數奪走的惡意，正是沙華會。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHG1AQeql0b
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgOPQAZMZb
「……我會找到給墨駒這個戒指的人。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTbfnwgyqb
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VZ6VpoOJm
收起回憶，紫藤再次握緊了戒指。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw34lSVxXvW
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwVmRcT7oE
「然後，殺了他。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWvk11hd5O
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbG3gcXGyY
紫藤的眼神猶如熾火，沒有一分一毫的搖曳。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyJBR3cLVy
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReqAdC3R3s
但只不過幾秒，便很快地萎靡了下來。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqP7crY8S2
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbaxZPTJXR
「可是、我卻下不了手。」紫藤無力地鬆開了手：「不管怎麼樣……我都沒辦法像杜若妳那樣。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVKgGnx7GW
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QdW3ZjUQt
明知道沙華會是惡，紫藤卻無法真的對那群敗類下殺手。也許正是因為那時媽媽遭到殺害的畫面烙印得太過深刻，紫藤才會下意識地抑制著、不讓那副景象再次出現吧。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ToVo5MCrQ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSYQFCIeRr
而自己的這份軟弱，既沒有人可以幫助紫藤克服，也不會有人能夠理解——除了杜若。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1emuhleKrV
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AvhtGrzyR
「原來、這就是紫藤想要跟我一起行動的原因呀。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyvLx831hB
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRMC0TAkJW
「……嗯。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1b1jHSfWnN
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAzOFToYJ9
那時見到的杜若是如此純粹，就好像一把剛從水中淬出的刀刃般，不帶著任何一絲污穢。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84eYezEEUv
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJacLgTB15L
紫藤深信，這就是自己向那些骯髒禽獸復仇的楔子。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEke1a0bEmx
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXENdN2gFK
這就是足以斬斷自己心頭那朵紅花的白刃。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrk8GrXHO9k
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LcPJ2sHkI
「……杜若妳呢？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SrvIPl7tM
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7p3CXHGFkO
紫藤拾起快要滿溢的情感，回望了杜若那如新月般的雙眸。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKngo17MsY
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1o8AGTbwK
「又是為什麼……會開始當殺手？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIoTMEjRzX
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWYOSaMTtG
剛才、杜若確實說過想要請鎮裡最好的醫生，但杜若看起來並不像是患有什麼嚴重疾病或是殘缺的樣子。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FrDZr6Iuq
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxoriwPSEw
聽見紫藤的疑問，杜若就好像是在思考、也像是在害怕似地垂下了眼簾。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbEEvU9NAY
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3itTyUVdZH
「紫藤……不會生氣吧？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcscScnij5
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6ih1eypZH
杜若果然還在意著那時自己的衝動。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Eg5GcuVte
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTC4a7ZJzm
但如果是要請醫生，怎麼樣也不會是做不好的事吧？紫藤這麼想著，舉起沒受傷的手摸了摸杜若的頭頂。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzi9P1bVpL
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZNFRJ9194
「不會。」紫藤堅定地說：「我保證。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvYqBafXpd
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KfchnyP2N
等到紫藤緩緩收起手後，杜若才按著胸口，下定決心地開口。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0OCpKDqg1
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasFCqaArIZ
「……我想要救陶壺叔。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkd9OC1Zu3
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByoBkSS76y
杜若喃喃吐出的回答令紫藤感到十分意外。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkq1Jv8k9v
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtM2oBFqwCo
之前見到陶壺叔確實是在北大街，但陶壺叔本人看上去並沒有多大的病痛呀？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4HaspxaYr
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CjlQHwUEn
就好像發現了紫藤的疑惑，杜若幽幽地繼續說道：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwjO5icTS1
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jossdS8e2
「陶壺叔生的是一種會讓身體漸漸沒辦法動的病。醫生說，雖然現在只有手指，但很快就會變成手、腳、身體……最後是心臟。只要過不了四年，陶壺叔就會被那種病給殺死了。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKudIJeIsm
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeAgZm6PhS
全身慢慢就會不能動的病？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUXokMNWLG
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnJ1r9JQzy
這種病紫藤是頭一次聽見。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL8VrEw49e
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAh4NwVUjF
「我也偷偷問了很多醫生，但他們都說那是一種沒辦法治好的病。明明是這樣，但陶壺叔從來都沒跟我說過、還一直都笑著裝作沒事。直到我不小心聽到其他醫生跟白鵑提到陶壺叔，我才知道陶壺叔一直都瞞著我。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn89rXvCA9K
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdWCxRUuBG
「現在陶壺叔已經沒辦法走很長的路、也不太能拿重的東西了。」杜若的口氣變得哀傷起來，卻也有一份同等重量的不甘心。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡov2QR9Tllf
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBYoSJaYMM
「我明明也想要幫忙陶壺叔的，可是、我卻不知道自己到底該怎麼做才好——因為就連醫生都沒辦法了嘛。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKYMKSzz4A
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GULpMwJ63
杜若的笑只看得見無力。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EzifDlFan
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkoFX5fnqM
「直到有天，狐狸告訴我說她有辦法，但前提就是要幫忙她去殺掉那些人。所以，狐狸才發給了我這把槍、還有手機。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhujXJRxTm7
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdhZkk7WnD
到這裡，杜若便沒有繼續說下去了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawilE297ea
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lQiymcd0k
並不是因為仇恨，也不是因為利益，而只是單單地想要為某人而付出。杜若的理由就跟個性一樣是如此單純、甚至令紫藤的胸口刺痛。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaEcwiHOZ4
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QahVMD1T7
然而，紫藤卻忍不住想要質疑的念頭。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCy0FPhFT00
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DY3FvMSXt
「那個狐狸、真的就這麼值得相信嗎？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3StMyvKQYK
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzvw8bgHiU
如果就連鎮裡最優秀的人都沒辦法了，狐狸又怎麼可能醫好陶壺叔的病？再者，就算殺死的是沙華會的人，讓還只是女孩的杜若去持槍犯險本身就很荒謬。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9znAgURXZu
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTY99olaAik
「……狐狸一直都對我很好呀。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmiZehYonC
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdi1uMkUnQG
杜若笑了。卻讓人分不清那是真的笑容、還是在故作堅強，讓紫藤的鼻子裡無聲地滑過一陣酸楚。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpMrt5uYXj
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgoITOMdqh
「所以，我還是相信狐狸。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxHu1DNRLO
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGLv41QUhl
杜若就好像在對自己喊話似地緊緊握起拳頭，但小小的手中、有的卻只有虛無。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlotWArWRoi
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ONPuIDGrU
也許這麼說太過自以為是，但紫藤從這道笑容裡看到的並不是想要相信、而是不得不相信。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LTvkxr9bE
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpK8no4G8r
只因為狐狸的許諾是杜若的最後一絲曙光。所以杜若除了抓住它以外也別無他法——僅僅就只是如此而已。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOW41vBTKL
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZvZOfh4Mf
哪怕、就算那道光芒是朝自己射出的子彈也一樣。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6aZOXJ1t4
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSm9qtOf6Kd
紫藤也曾望著母親的背影被偽裝成曙光的惡火給吞噬殆盡。但只因為如此，就可以不負責任地說聲「放棄吧」把一切希望給澆熄嗎？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdv0GQ2LJu

這怎麼可能。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFky6zPOru5
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Z5q5GVwdX
沒有人知曉光芒的後頭是陽光亦或是惡火，但倘若停止腳步、也只會在黑暗消逝。無論是誰，追逐光芒都是與生俱來的本能。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvte0rLvmu3
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1kuuZ2k3I
看著杜若緊握的手，紫藤便不捨地伸出手、略顯生硬地鑽進了那冰涼而纖弱的掌心。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9WmweYDis
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5xQI4AOSA
也許，杜若一直都是握著這樣飄渺晃蕩的希望走來，但起碼現在、紫藤能夠確實地握住杜若。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1IlBRSVB1
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAn5xKP7O8
如果杜若前進的方向是惡火，那紫藤就要在最近的地方拉住杜若。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY55r2tQJhS
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yB3NuWHVh
察覺到掌心的柔軟，杜若看著紫藤靦腆地一笑。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7UGCIm3p6
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WMme27S30
轉動手腕、解開五指，那份只屬於兩人相握時的溫熱便從掌心蔓延到了指縫463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoCLBHCnYF
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhkHeCSDwY
「但就算這樣，我也還是想自己去試試看。」經過短暫的沉澱，杜若再次充滿生氣地抬起頭來。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJZpFIr8BH
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4cQigl7A5
「我想只要有夠多的錢的話，也許就可以把大家一起找來、找出能夠馬上醫好陶壺叔的辦法了！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhf8WINdaR
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxINFNJi2p
剛才籠罩著的陰鬱被一掃而空，杜若看著紫藤，露出了開朗的笑容。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8tixTr8Q5
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipVWSzuPcf
「不過，果然還是不能夠靠沙華會的人呢。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3c03gfVt5
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucCNNzU9Xq
經過剛才被反擊的經驗，讓兩人都對這點有了更多的共識。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNu3CcyDB5Z
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8hCaaqiYR
說了句「話說回來」後，杜若就一轉話鋒、向紫藤問道：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXjAvHFG5r
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7X6v6HLvPR
「紫藤想要殺掉的人又是誰呀？紫藤還記得嗎？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFO1WYsjYO
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObS3rkpBSq
這問題讓紫藤才想起自己從沒有跟杜若——不、甚至是從沒有跟任何人說過這件事。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGehDkhVfV
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRphucBnB9h
「是一個……在脖子後面紋著白色線條的沙華會紋身的人。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmfPAiGgBT
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4GWqvssaU
從腦海深處的角落翻出這片景象。那人在殺害媽媽時，紫藤只有一瞬間記下了那個至今都從未看見第二次的特殊紋身。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2dUJlQGq9
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuTbTaHj7T
「沙華會的紋章幾乎都是鮮紅色的、有白色條紋的紋身……我就只見過那麼一次。但不管我怎麼找、那個人卻就好像消失了一樣，再也沒有出現過。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0i6w81A2Ac
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUhPLcPg58
而唯一有可能知道的墨駒已經被殺了，但紫藤並不感到後悔。比起狡獪的他們，紫藤更寧願靠自己的手去搜索。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtYLO2FT9R
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpAOFJorQE
「這樣的話，我也來幫忙吧！」杜若自告奮勇地舉高手：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIwQxyMnOL
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbP2cfUrqzM
「兩個人一起找絕對比較快的！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAFXlLmAV8
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbWOOB418v
杜若的模樣、讓紫藤晚了一步才發現自己說錯了話。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ePlJoyF81
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyzOh9MdEM
紫藤默默地低下頭、沉聲回答。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Vefr5XoeX
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBdm047Fry
「……不用那樣。我……我自己就夠了。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNIMnDKiDS
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2225OqnLTn
這冷淡的回答讓杜若頓時像被潑了水的貓咪似地一愣。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDSiKMcwpy
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjn4yOiNl4
「可是、紫藤不是說到現在都……」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQgnBFqH0Z
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlCOmWTJzs
「這本來就是我自己的事。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡot8xW1G1U7
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHyWyIr3RX
就算杜若能夠輕鬆地下殺手，但自己的復仇跟杜若是兩回事。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5nyf0ozBm
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3bxlhyDBw
紫藤很清楚自己的眼前只有惡火。而單單只是殺手的任務就已經足夠危險，杜若根本沒有必要為此承擔這些危險。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwltq7zny6L
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2yyrLpO6B
「那要是紫藤遇到危險怎麼辦！」倏地，杜若站起身、提高音量463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuuwkAV7LZ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJKkasopwd
「我就是為了保護自己，才會去學習要怎麼搏鬥。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0FlrK0ZRQ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6q52Y9pw5
紫藤明白杜若的擔憂。但紫藤正是為了不讓自己在完成復仇前先被吞沒，才用盡了心力去磨練自己。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJPPexRlYM
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlUhMYGz3u
「可是、假如對方有槍、假如遇到像今天一樣的事……」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17GEzNQEEN
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kleUHesuS
「我是不會讓自己被殺死的。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKf2Xj00nmy
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8h1QT8325
「紫藤明明就傷成這樣、還說這種話……！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIRRNdZQLx
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9nanGcbsw
看見紫藤一副無所謂的模樣，杜若更是焦急到話都說不清楚了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHklCbUAhG
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17wZpV4Ztw
紫藤沒能給出杜若期待的回應。卻還是於心不忍地輕握住了杜若的手。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWFLnnrVLg
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUV8Oeykj85
杜若雖然想甩開，但卻在一半就失去了力氣。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXRAAIpDdV
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dIfQuiTJQ
「明明、明明紫藤也硬是摻進了我的事情，現在卻又說這種話、這樣真的太不公平了……」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmshRHe41Bd
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMvfHC3X8l
杜若像個鬧彆扭的孩子一樣發起脾氣，但鬧彆扭的人卻總是最認真的。也因此，紫藤才無從反駁。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzJvRRQShA
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasRmtCX1In
是啊，明明就是自己先不講理地要杜若帶著自己的，這樣又有什麼資格拒絕杜若呢？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dYSbDak3o
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPdhPRe4Kx
但就算不公平也好，紫藤之所以握著杜若的手，絕非是要杜若陪著自己跳進火海。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSBTrOzQAM
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOvEHlGCuL
最後，紫藤還是用了奸詐的說法。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSHJdOepe6
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Wg5sKmQa4
「我跟陶壺叔約定過，說不會讓妳受傷了。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0l8RRDZaIr
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6nFhTdzoS
「那難道紫藤要我看著妳受傷嗎？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmPJumwKxZ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhcNDBOWqM
雖然夾雜著鼻音、但這句話卻如此強而有力。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUErcMflMV
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY31mjkJW35
在八年前的那個夜晚、紫藤也是那樣地看著母親被一刀刀殘殺致死——明明注視著、卻什麼也做不了的無力是多麼令人痛苦，紫藤比任何人都還要明白。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkrlSNiikH
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1t7fagcmVd
杜若也正是因為這樣的痛苦，才選擇了這條看似荒謬的道路。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2peEw5Wwr
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QMXFY4MRi
而紫藤打算再在杜若的身上再添一層相同的痛苦嗎？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtKWr6kS45
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDc5oZQY1e
紫藤無法回答，只是沉默地別開了視線。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRG69MDpQkS
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthsmBbD3MD
看見杜若受傷，自己會感到痛苦。而看見自己受傷，杜若會感到痛苦。然而若是因此什麼也不做，又有誰能夠替枉死的母親報仇雪恨？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsog69Itm57
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vw1HHA4gf
哪條路都是崎嶇，哪條路也都是痛苦。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymhWK29lpw
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqpge8purO
如今，在這條路上有個願意走到身旁攜手並進的人，又為何不欣然接受就好？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMrKP2bQkh
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwAGzfvGQT
只因為就連接受也是痛苦吧。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNzaf4H3qs
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7s6sgfPUGR
但、當初不就是因為明白自己沒辦法獨自走完腳下的路，所以才會自顧自地跟在杜若後頭不是嗎？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMDYHzJGjU
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZ3X8bwo9r
如果說想要把什麼東西給握在手裡、就免不了被刺出鮮血。那麼起碼受傷的方式可以交由彼此來抉擇。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOBAq2PscP
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYK2LaXpBsT
思及至此，紫藤才慢慢地放鬆了手中的力道。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIhMIQFgxw
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpqpkEGzQX
「答應我、要先保護好妳自己。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0EW5GgTWE
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtN9RYlf1TJ
紫藤不帶一絲玩笑地注視著杜若的雙眼，而看見紫藤的神情，杜若才終於破涕為笑。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWn1pjuJJvR
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAqNHWM8Ri
「可是，紫藤會保護我的吧？這樣我的份不就用不到了？」杜若歪著頭反問。然後扣緊了紫藤安放在腿上的手。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk29TYv6tnz
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn90zD9jluV
「所以，我的份就用來保護紫藤吧！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhTfjRWZhO
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeGrqDw82I
紫藤雖沒有點頭，卻還是回望著對方微微笑，回握住指縫間的柔軟。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMevhU6JxuN
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOduYL0P8YH
「喔喔！紫藤笑了耶！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGhAPvwVmT
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64Ly4deoyM
頭一次看見紫藤的笑容，讓杜若欣喜地舉高手，卻不小心拉起了紫藤負傷的前臂而使紫藤臉色一緊。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7zgbUZ3Gk
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKby5nHS3RI
「哇啊啊——！對不起！」杜若立刻慌張地放下手來。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcZb3Nmclw
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmozymwWEM
疼痛雖然還沒散去，但紫藤還是發自內心地笑了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzadoLOMtGO
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk17CbsRMxl
「……對了！」這時，杜若突然靈機一動地眼神一亮：「不知道可不可以請狐狸幫紫藤找找看呢？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkUcNxlq88
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOt4sF6guz
「咦？」這提議讓紫藤也感到意外地眨了眨眼。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7u3PGrUuc
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtDeEmd8xT
「雖然是我自己猜的……不過狐狸應該很擅長找人吧。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdeyX2MmmF
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUDSDgq3Ba
應該說如果那個狐狸不擅長，就不可能精確地知道目標的出沒地點與時間吧。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9BH4wxKUq
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFMcf5M5jx
紫藤確實沒想到這個方法——不，更應該說是刻意忽略掉了才是。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgB0ngoFGa
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXHrUXUimC
紫藤還是沒辦法相信一個就連臉都沒見過、還讓杜若做這麼危險的事情的人。把這樣重要的任務託付給對方真的妥當嗎？光是想的就有種不踏實感。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ez9jnskM2
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2JtjxCWI3
不過，如果那個狐狸願意幫忙，也許真的會是一大助力。比起自己的脾氣，不是更應該去想要怎樣才能早一步替母親報仇雪恨才對嗎？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VzqPi9Ode
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyleZO0OIR
自己尋覓這麼多年來都毫無所獲，而現在就有一個或許能夠跨出一大步的機會，又怎麼能夠放棄？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bJVdaHhOD
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5gAyAlfdN
「那……可以幫我跟狐狸說說看嗎？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPofvjyxdhD
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UulyXvhxP
「當然呀，這是我提議的嘛～」杜若自信地抱起手臂、挺起胸膛。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNnYNdXaaY
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpo6AMYUBs
就在這時，紫藤注意到了杜若的手肘與膝蓋上也有著斑斑的擦傷。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2urspCELQm
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpv505S52UA
是被墨駒踢倒的時候撞上的吧。雖然不比紫藤嚴重，但印在杜若柔嫩的肌膚上、還是格外叫人心疼。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSUwOK0auT
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqlCYatXct
「妳的傷……換我幫妳吧。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Q3umNl3lP
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66weWplfiT
被紫藤一說，杜若才發覺似地看了看自己的傷，露出一派輕鬆的笑容。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxrWREJavJ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhduP3WQJOo
「我這點傷才沒事啦～」說完，杜若從醫療箱裡頭翻出了幾條止血貼布遞給紫藤。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDiiDwK92G
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsb2D1HOt1s
「貼這個應該就可以了。紫藤就幫我一下吧。」說完，杜若也爬到床上坐到了一旁。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTLZBW6qdn
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQlx8t1d1G
「撕得開來嗎？」杜若看著紫藤有些僵硬的動作，有所顧慮地問。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B2yrifkXw
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfhV7gmzcF
「動作不需要太大，沒問題的。」慢慢地撕開膠帶後，紫藤往杜若受傷的手肘上貼去、神情專注。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHbqchVmGa
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFLWSzGOXM
「……好了。換膝蓋吧。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKElVf6sbFR
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmmgqt40C6
輕輕撫平皺起的部分，紫藤這才發現杜若一動也不動地盯著自己。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RLDXKP0Qn
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3nyed3X9Z
「我臉上有什麼嗎？」紫藤不解地偏過頭。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegmwZcj5dz
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPae29AYZ3
「唔嗯、沒有呀。」盯得出神的杜若這才回過神來地搖搖頭，靦腆地說道：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgsqyN2nnq
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPhcq58ian
「只是覺得紫藤認真的模樣……果然好帥喔。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wP7S81fjl
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvVI9FOFta
突如其來的稱讚，令紫藤頓時耳根一熱。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOQaAAmqnN
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHM1PwZKT9
在道場偶爾也會有人這麼稱讚紫藤——儘管紫藤從不這麼覺得——但明明是同樣的誇獎，為什麼從杜若的嘴巴裡說出來感覺就是不一樣呢？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡag93dZPqM1
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucbyIY4dsg
「我、我……」不知道該怎麼回應的紫藤搓著發熱的耳朵，無所適從地左右張望，最後才低下頭、用著連自己都快聽不到的聲音悄聲地說了句：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotypRucVTs
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxF5viBxlY
「謝謝……」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZE3wl3O8i
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXg8aQwT6nx
「嗯？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfV5CQn7kBR
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUJOXFC5x5
「沒、沒有……！」紫藤彷彿像要掩飾過去拉高音量，匆忙地接著說道：「比起那些、還有膝蓋的傷……！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTY2wN98Wn
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46NpR8fNb0
杜若雖然有些不明白，卻也覺得今天表情豐富的紫藤很有趣，就沒有多問、聽話地打直了雙腳。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfe5LxwOu4
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysO39c7gdO
杜若的膝蓋上仍沾著一些汙血，那道傷口印在上頭就好像是件純白禮服上的爛泥一樣顯眼——但就算沾上了爛泥，氣質本身也不會輕易改變。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpbSZzSFvA
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj92FyG6HM
雖然怎樣也稱不上是修長，但杜若的腿卻讓紫藤不禁想到了幼貓那短巧可愛的前腳，讓人忍不住想要伸手捏個一把。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XIl57H1gE
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjIDjQX0D0
不對不對、現在可不是做那種事的時候。不要再想些不正經的事了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonK1wm4SaD
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DHo1DeYKY
「稍微……稍微彎起來一點。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThklf2xzcR
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZeGlAi8rA
「這樣？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqOzYQSvMs
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeg9L9UTS1W
為了不讓自己再胡思亂想，紫藤支吾地說。一會才終於定下心來把貼布貼上了膝蓋的傷口。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKU0gHBANIf
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IkqQEJ68V
「……嗯！這樣就可以了吧！」杜若點點頭，滿意地打量著自己手上腳上的貼布。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOWcVMke84
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTerzyOnT5D
於是紫藤收起醫療用品，起身將箱子放回原位。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGslZSUpS9k
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKj79uoChcE
「對了，剛才紫藤提到的事件……」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44hyNu58F7
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZECUiWG8zf
就在要踏出房門的時候，杜若忽然想到了什麼似地開了口。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3ZGOp5Ky1
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDM71XBkQd
「事件、是倒塌事件嗎？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjixJH7Bh63
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61i5L6ciTz
「唔、嗯……」杜若好像沒聽清楚似地，只把頭點到了一半，便默默地垂下眼簾。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiz2NhOH2j
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmV1i6aWJ9
「怎麼了嗎？」看見杜若的模樣，令紫藤擔心地走了回去。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2rd8aIq5y
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyPP7eaxWr
但杜若沒有做出回應，只是像在思考般地沉默了一會後，才撓撓頭髮抬起了頭來。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9RLghX57P
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaORuwZY4P
「沒有……沒事的喔！」杜若再次露出一如往常的笑容：「再不睡覺的話明天又要遲到了！還是趕快把東西放回去，然後好好洗澡睡覺吧！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9v5V4EFu4
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRuVfnBRlB
紫藤雖然感到疑惑，卻還是沒有多問地走出了房間。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6idHZnC53
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyjewKHEOz
回來後、在淋浴間前，兩人看著彼此身上的一塊塊包紮，忽然察覺到了什麼而尷尬地笑了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvU1XkN8Q6U
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkWYqdCrxs
「我們……好像弄錯順序了耶。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQ0MeVt5j5
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJ9PS2ey8y
「……只能用擦的了吧。」紫藤望向手上一大片的暗紅紗布，洩出了一聲嘆息。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCBjJCkEuC
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEwTx7kYJR
雖然天氣還很炎熱，用擦澡倒也不會著涼，但紫藤現在只有一隻手，想要擦去全身的溼黏感實在是難如登天。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ci88TCYg4
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH92UAHVASy
杜若也察覺到紫藤有苦難言的模樣，於是悄悄地湊到了紫藤的一旁。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeJDp4Z4CH
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ojw3LW5FP
「紫藤需要我幫忙嗎？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmR4715pdF
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjFKkrTl8c
起先紫藤還沒聽懂杜若的意思，但看著杜若站到了自己和淋浴間之間，紫藤才瞬間紅了臉頰。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiInMyTeFb
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTKNKb2iD0
「我、我自己來就可以了……」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIOmXNA5CY
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2cj8uDkbG
在外頭、紫藤光是露出手臂以外的皮膚都會感到有些憋扭了，更何況是和人坦誠相待，即使是杜若——不、正因為是杜若，紫藤才更在意這點。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrWxeBI2yX
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaxFvyjMU1
終於，在簡單擦去一身的灰塵與汗濕後，兩人才可以好好地關上燈休息。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtbsTDChqt
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡad968VCIxL
房間沉入一片黑暗。而在這片熟悉的黑暗當中，卻多了道不同的吐息。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXsQc1pKaK
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJETDOaXgEg
明明昨天還沒有這麼明顯地感覺到杜若的存在，現在紫藤卻能夠清楚地感覺到對方的呼吸拂過臉頰。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULUbEZyDka
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmHIKRWXOE
因為說好了，所以剛才也讓杜若用了跟自己一樣的沐浴乳。和草草擦乾污痕的紫藤不同，剛沖過澡的杜若身上香得不可思議。那宛如水果混合了奶油的甜香挾帶著專屬於杜若的微暖體溫，光聞著就令紫藤的胸口發癢。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Yiri3p47A

明明是一樣的東西，為什麼用在杜若的身上味道就是完全不同呢？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzSu3WQAni

「……紫藤。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R5U1g0Qlx
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPg2ngUWYT
「怎麼了？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXrFqQZxzQ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMXbVCThBV
就在紫藤兀自思考時，杜若用著像是隨時會消失在黑暗中的細小聲音、輕聲地喚了紫藤。而在紫藤回問後，杜若沒有馬上回答，只是輕揪住紫藤的衣領，向前挪動身子。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJtxnxiaHn
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZXYw4CVE5
「紫藤說、會一直在我身邊……我可以相信紫藤吧？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlufpLx7aq8
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZPw8Ab9Rf
那是躲在櫃子裡頭時紫藤為了安撫恐慌的杜若，而下意識脫口而出的承諾。也許是四周的黑暗、讓杜若又想起了那時的感覺吧。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3lROdSSZt
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ153n301qyc
紫藤伸出手輕蓋在了杜若的後腦，卻沒有辦法就這麼點頭。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbRksGdJ23
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOj8jjTaXrx
就連明天，紫藤都不知道自己是不是還能夠像現在躺在這張床上了。那又何況是更遙遠的以後呢？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB03t5bEX9t
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqpVDYGE7d
這世上難以實現的事情多如繁星，即使是伸手能夠觸及的光芒，也不乏混濁的惡火，而自己選擇的前路更是如此。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDNUjpHyIV
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQaK7Y1ZWN
既然難以實現，那就不該給予承諾。面對再也單純不過的杜若，這樣的輕浮是種殘酷。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAKLP9Tg5V
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwM7nyDXe2
可是要是因此就什麼也不能夠承諾、什麼也不能夠相信，不也是另一種殘酷嗎？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWqrOBRZBA
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ha3tuXcn2
確實，紫藤不能夠保證前路的光明不是槍口的閃焰，也不能夠成為驅趕黑暗的陽光。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoH7IQItrQS
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGzNBdCYEB
不過紫藤現在就在這裡。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQVzUyQSjY
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgiaKb6OvC
無論腳下的是光明還是黑暗，只要紫藤還能夠伸出手，就不會讓杜若握起的手中僅有一撮虛幻。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKAs2UUUAn
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LH8DJG4TA
於是、紫藤探出指頭，用指腹輕貼上了杜若的臉頰。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbu6bbopNwP
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzv6KNVc4yC
「……我會試著做到的。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRE5bNbpfmp
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hukdGcf5c
「什麼嘛……」聽見這不乾脆的回答，杜若便沒輒地笑了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx6FtPK4mn
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0QB2bdynU
「不過……我相信紫藤喔。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90g2SImtNh
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisPUTOk9K5
不給紫藤辯解的餘地。說完，杜若就這麼微笑著闔上眼，沉沉地往夢鄉走去。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcn3ck21EC7
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWb5mf77lQ
窗外打進的微光逐漸照亮紫藤的視野，杜若雪白的髮絲在輪廓的邊緣透著薄光，就宛如隨風飄逸的紗絹一樣。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEebj9NZVHD
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPvk5d7468
從呼吸聲聽來，杜若大概是在睡著時就會蜷起身子的類型——就連這點也跟貓很像啊，紫藤不禁調侃地想。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsohEO5QkFu
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5luVRRd2A
疼痛令紫藤沒辦法把杜若給攬進懷中，但紫藤卻仍湊近了身子，把那道溫熱的呼吸給小心地挨近胸口。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvqkcdkq5X
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKisx6SVtpP
而杜若只是既像在回應、又像在撒嬌般地發出一聲夢囈，把身子更加地縮了進去。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDiby8QPrW
