據偉兹所知350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOhv9LtMKP
雷爾夫先生是位退役軍人，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtw7dkJiH7
同時也是年紀相近朋友———350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxhdzbREhK
帕特里克·普斯特的父親。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhW2emnvvt1
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF65Tj1KeNY
偉兹與雷爾夫先生首次見面就是始於鄰近鎮上的阿登步道。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8sMhjqCI3
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3F6YAZFjnN
阿登步道就是條人手鋪設的花崗石路，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79MOjCBovB
週邊是綠意盎然的森林。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KNn18z6t8
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ptxWrMHKR
白天時基本上就只有松鼠，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJugti3dfW
白兔等毫無威脅性的野生動物。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbM1whAqU0k
是個因環境優美及空氣清新而受鎮民歡迎的消遣休憩之地。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxnBhYyQFq
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKpDJEdaif
但近期傳有野豬在步道附近出沒的傳言，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdF8wEo7X9D
鮑伯農場亦受到野豬滋擾。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAP4iRLEBKP
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwP9Lk832n
帕特里克和偉兹在森林中嬉戲時也受到襲擊，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEJGRnDhKv
幸好雷爾夫先生及時來到驅逐了野豬。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3r2M2hFgkg
兩人才沒受到傷害。
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeajJqsVIDV
這次之後，
偉兹便立志要成為像雷爾夫這樣的男子漢。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeaWK0WBxl
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCDAqFG4Ia
而今天早上，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hqzZbuFGG
偉兹踏單車路經普斯特家家前巧遇剛回到家的雷爾夫先生。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJLg2F2YSy
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSR8Xkd2y3
偉兹從車頭的布袋內抽出一紮報紙，
抛向雷爾夫。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOfgz1gV35
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsojp4ZiUa
“早安，雷爾夫先生！帕特里克的腳沒有大礙吧？” 350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduWX4P1rC4
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxl758QYVW
“原來是偉兹呀，請別嚇我。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHIHQJ551W
帕特里克應該再休息一天就可以和你去玩了，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHniuQUtRp
但請不要再去阿登步道了哦。″ 350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKIKBsbycC
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqH6YJMsj1
雷爾夫的反應似乎不如平時般從容，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTxLrgvGg5
反而像為躲避著什麼而鬼鬼祟祟似的。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeeasIrbuI
若不是偉兹認識雷爾夫，他定必會被當成小偷。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDngawmWFt
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR99LRwdUS6
“我知道了！”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwa7dE0SSky
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEyjB0v8FP
雷爾夫接下報紙後，背後的家門緩緩張開，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTZfGwcwew
門內散發著一陣比他在戰時從敵軍身上感受過都強的敵意，被他狩獵過的動物和惡魔都兇猛的攻擊性。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudLt9K3658
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0o3Ye1s6w
雷爾夫沒有馬上轉身，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9QeS2fJA1
在戰鬥開始前至少要讓無辜的偉兹離開。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIi6zobHPP
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhasZMw7AsB
“早安！普斯特夫人！”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRqfJPxkeC
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlCbdTRebT
“早安呀偉兹，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhysJpK3ZY8
記得要成為一個有責任感和時間觀念的男子漢哦！你說對不對？ 親 愛 的。”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFYNjowBXm
普斯特夫人回應時雖然臉帶微笑，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDMrryM2fX
但也讓偉茲感受到微弱的壓迫感。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOVZKHtebP
而且這話可能根本不是說給自己聽的。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXtC4VjiZV
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDZHpvl2e0
“說得也對呢，我差不多要上學了，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJfAq4SJ3T
得趕去最後一戶，再見兩位.....”
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRK7GHwThhB
偉兹語氣沒有了剛才的熱情。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzP5eqQNVDO
普斯特夫婦也笑著揮手回應，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxGyRaY69t
雷爾夫臉上的笑容像是帶著一點哀愁。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuB6iUt9mQU
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCJErXzgxV
“親愛的，你不會是剛剛才回到家吧？”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulWxMtxbSV
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTlhsQE3Yw
″當....當....當然不是呀，艾露娜......″350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLCaLyNlrr
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJiOvbYc3U
偉兹沒有再聽下去，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6JasgRDUA
只是在疑惑著雷爾夫先生是不是和安東尼一樣有口吃。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghrAtjd2YF
很多年後已成人父的他才能稍稍理解雷爾夫的感受。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7LfN0eCej
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bxf0ujU49
最後一站，威克森家就在普斯特家對邊。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfMzIfCFMP
偉兹一直對擔任過警察的衛威恩非常感興趣，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWjo5FXw4I
衛威恩年幼時曾和家人一度遷出大城市，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByh3NNmJZ0
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6d6Wzbn9a
於半年前某件有關鮑伯農場的案件後。 350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OerQP3qwK
心灰意冷的衛威恩交出警章和配槍，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Mw0MKLu07
獨自回到諾谷湖鎮居住。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnFwj3tmvf
但奇怪的是偉兹從沒見過衛威恩本人。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCaN64oAGo
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtLFGpOiEl
比起流傳著奇怪傳言的雷爾夫，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoTS2MhEjY
衛威恩在鎮上的風評確實不俗，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywEmKuNUE4
市集的商店老闆都欣賞他爽快和正直。
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAv1oTfPQ7
留在和睦的鎮上是種浪費，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMhqVgd1gG
他應該回到大城市繼續撲滅罪惡，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKyZItIAD5
成為守護市民的警察才對。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs607Gp7Ive
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIU0Umullq
偉兹來到威克森家前，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsnVHO9ObO
而門前有一位偉兹非常熟識的訪客在和衛威恩交談。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGofujNrcmL
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqlEw4pZH6
這是最後一站，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Kn7NYKGKj
偉兹把單車停泊在道路旁，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGJUR3OlL6
他不用拋的派送方式，下車親手遞給衛威恩。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQ8thtjXY5
藉此一窺洛城警署三級警探的風采。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVnYoI1vmd
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7yMmuoAJK
“先重組整合一下，
你是在說昨晚駕駛貨車時遇到一列樹木像骨牌般倒向車道，你以過人的技術全部迴避開。
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEqzJgoakT
貨車進退兩難時，我就出現了？”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu26idhDV2i
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuwqjwBuId
″對.....對....你.....還說什...什麼雨水關係,還徒..徒...手搬開倒在地上的...樹幹″ 350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXrpgkmgQ6
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA83clNAzox
“安東尼，我和無數擅於說謊的罪犯交手過。
他們的証詞永遠讓人非常可信，
但我永遠能找出隱藏在細節內的漏洞。”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWx3n0iiBCP
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jnFzGG7vM
“但我...沒....有犯罪....” 350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eaS1gXLTM
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7JfKe6iIS
“我當然知道了朋友，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuYftvLVPY
但我雖然很強壯也不可能徒手搬起重至上噸的樹木吧？”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0x1UMFuOk
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0bhOQVK42
“好像有...道...理” 安東尼看向衛威恩的雙臂說道。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsNgMUr1y0
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLA6Kkk4pq6
“可能你只是太累了，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsgbhHggLb
我昨晚在家睡了一整晚，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWmKMIxQvx
直至你的拍門聲弄醒我。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiHRjlpd0Q
所以又怎可能出現在你眼前呢？”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcYU7TRas0
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiq616QnNIb
“抱.....歉”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoF1tPoKjK
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yYs8Oq0Xi
“沒問題的，
我累的時候也會想起雷金納德和那個膽小的警監上司。
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGFrEv4bwj
可能你真的遇上樹木倒塌意外，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0o9iUI5y1
但是你疲勞和內心的恐懼又把一棵想成兩棵三棵，甚至更可怕的景象。” 350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyudtYsKAL
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7fkuIaTj3
安東尼想起昨晚倒向貨車後又突然消失的樹木，經過衛威恩的引導他開始懷疑起自己。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mZvHBm73f
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89dt9nfriZ
“人呀在最困難的時候總會回想起最重要的人，
昨晚那個我就只存在於你的腦海裡，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxl6OWYV3p
給你重要的提示好讓你鼓起勇氣脫離險境。”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OcuOnkmXy
衛威恩以食指輕點安東尼的心臟位置說。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jiDTK1Fge
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJZpO8FuNg
安東尼本來就是個不擅措辭的人，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspnEJTbNeB
在口齒伶俐的衛威恩臉前突然一度語塞。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwOooGAcG0
衛威恩乘著此空檔又接著說。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOgrCRHKzW
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhx6fXffUY
“無論如何，你昨晚也經歷過糟透了的事。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCVi7tos5x
現在要做到就是和我一起去吃早餐，
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aLTVJNWSy
完成今天的工作後休息幾天，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0hReghiwF
像我一樣調整下步伐再面對人生。
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeJ6Hm4jNS
抱歉，小孩 讓你等了一段時間。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnU42voZd6r
希望我們的交談沒有耽誤你寶貴的時間。 350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bIT9A2l67
衛威恩．威克森”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJnbIoXO8X
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvSI4z6cJ2
衛威恩從偉兹手上接過報紙的同時，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgYd0u2ScI
伸出左手表示友好。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtTG63liOe
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjB1Wb0UjHU
“我是偉兹．霍華德，當然沒有耽誤呀！”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhYifIqc0i
偉兹緊握衛威恩的左手後準備離去。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvFy9mFkYx
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoV0qVxu54b
“你不...不....和我們一起吃早餐嗎”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKw6cOZyua
安東尼聽完衛威森的話後，多少也有點釋懷。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1EZx7Y1MR
希望和兩位朋友一起吃早餐以放鬆心情。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDi1rfs2OR
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdPhqUX8DN
“下次吧，我還得把單車泊回家。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMKMF2yQxg
再見了衛威恩先生和安東尼，350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75DSILyoM6
祝你們有美好的一天”350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiliKDMcZD9
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xfYRJ7DDm
