時光飛逝，終於來到薄暮城天文學會年度大會舉辦之日。妲羽獨自坐在套房裡，看著面前平放桌上的星盤，意識不禁飛越到薄暮城，想像年度大會裡空前盛況。學者們激烈討論的場面迴盪不停，而自己卻要逗留在這寧靜無聲的房間，沒法反駁他們滿口謬誤與歪理。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TujSTEBf1
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TexqWpy5Q
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoi6Y4u9D0A
真實的星空、一切答案就映在自己那散發微弱星光的橢圓盤子上，然而妲羽並未能把事實一一訴說，每次總有自詡前輩的人搬出歪理反駁、或是把妲羽當成愛胡亂說話的小丫頭，而這次更是直接被捲入事端，失去公開發言的機會。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmNtFHfPxC
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBrFQFvUmg
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpsw9ObhnO
大概到了大會開始時間，妲羽於是打開套房裡的大屏幕，一番搜尋過後找來了年度大會的現場直播。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfDmUpjiEx
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYIQkuM8jw
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmVZIuQ08b
看過修伯特會長冗長的開場辭，鏡頭又轉向了幾位自以為是的老博士，口裡仍然是大堆謬誤，煞是難耐。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOt2sCcAl2F
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVqK1oZBZK
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Bju6hm6iB
快要打起瞌睡之際，直播片段裡突然響過一陣雜音，冒出幾個白色身影衝到鏡頭焦點前。領頭的老頭子無視周遭一切驚訝目光，以凌厲語氣指向正主持大局的修伯特道出來由：385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvsjDjsTG8
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8h3SxYa9ST
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ385UctHiiL
「這裡是樞密院罪滅組，現在懷疑你們私藏擄走院內政要的犯人，請盡快把她交出來。不然的話……」發話的老頭說著又故意掉過頭來，望向會場上方的攝像鏡頭高聲續道：「今日將是你們最後一次年度大會！」385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEhJlsQQFR
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5eeEizs2H
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXq9e1YL9kN
「等等！您們誤解了，我們天文學會公正持平，絕不包庇罪惡。」修伯特連忙朗聲為學會上下辯護。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnb5L54NZj
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YWRpG4xk4
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniloaAS9td
「你要是在心音小姐面前說這句話，我可沒法保你不死。你還是快……」385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAcJqRa0BV
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiomgoCvaW
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNfC68JXp2
老頭子話說到一半，直播影像便突然中斷，屏幕裡只剩下大片藍光，再沒有聲音或是映像。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAvJ6Erltk
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRCF7q8IOK
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjfhz3nZvG
然而，被這突如其來衝擊得目瞪口呆的妲羽，冥冥中亦意識到那些白衣大人正威逼修伯特會長供出自己所在之處，遂連忙提起魔匣，撥下堇叔叔留給自己的號碼。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvI18gCqauZ

385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqiEvA9Vt7
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMlc1m2dAr
「堇叔叔！妲羽很害怕，樞密院的人似乎已經知道妲羽在聖火城了！」385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDL2WFLOsSV
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FOOocezo8
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uxmrzKnMe
妲羽的話伴以一副緊張語氣，傳至聽筒另一方忙於籌備公演的堇金耳邊。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHu8zH0fuq
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYjwRqTYA4
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKRJyZpp4l
幽暗的廳堂裡，除了堇金以外，還有坐在圓桌前品茶的法依與旁邊握起青光卡片冥想的佳依，沉默細聽堇金與妲羽的對話：385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DJ33i6HT6

「那妲羽是不是要離開這裡了？」385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1miKF3Xav

「妳卡帕哥哥會保護妳與小少爺離開聖火城，不用擔心。」385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lKr8uPNBE
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUmQ4H64mu
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqryILkMR3v
知道卡帕亦要隨兩小子而去，法依喝過一口紅茶，托起腮望向堇金，回想起早前與卡帕的閒聊，略顯失落地嘆氣：385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXACcc01Hv
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9hFodhsSd
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOD2IWGvFR
「卡帕也要走了啊？明明剛才還叫他要期待一下我們的演出，真沒趣～」385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjidEba0Sj
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroqpotMHHb
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUOhaGJZjl
「法伊，這也沒辦法，再這樣下去連我們的演出也會受影響。」而佳依則淡然以虛火灼燒手上正位置的「隱士」牌面，止住冥想對法依說道。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoly94TYqo
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ruIa3I9UC
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk8Gt48pwn
在法依沒精打采地往嘴裡灌茶的同時，佳依又不忘暗自反思占卜得來的結果。她心想：「隱士」是退隱深冰中的智者，把自己的權力、威能一一藏於手上燈籠中，隱身於暗處靜觀其變亦不失為壞事。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNbUyGgPOl
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIhtUfmnIh
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiMQzyYNFe
「堇先生，您是要卡帕帶著他們回到黑輝淨土嗎？」等到堇金掛斷電話之後，佳依又率先開口問道。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwDCHjK4MY
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnXRYpnKzU
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGNuOFVeAI
「果然騙不過佳依的占卜術呢！本來我想讓卡帕看完妳們第一場公演才回去的，的確有點可惜呢……」385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vEUz9kwDX
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqwaFRzalw
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTzTMpEGv9
而法依則繼續沉默不語，難得找到一個讓自己提起「興趣」的男生，卻沒法多找幾個機會挑逗他。哪怕要待巡迴演出來到黑輝淨土，才能再次沉浸於他激情的幹勁中。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6INYmGiVWN

拋下這句說話後，堇金又轉過頭來，看了看金色魔匣裡幾句報告，遂撥下卡帕的號碼……385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RvUhLtoH3

385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfDDGZOYtC
這邊廂，在堇花塔裡監督手下鍛鍊進度的卡帕，忽然聽見口袋裡響起一陣爆裂鈴聲，便掏出外表簇新的橙紅魔匣接聽這來自堇金義兄的撥號：385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6JUeh6PB1
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MhV8rJ0U1
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHegqZdgQ9O
「卡帕，今日之內可以把小少爺跟小甜心送走嗎？我怕我們這邊收容不下他們了……」385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmBu9lFe8s
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3aC0QqEFd
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCsKTg5eLz
「樞密院的人要過來聖火城了嗎？」卡帕磨拳擦掌，腦裡冒出帶領麾下兄弟與這幫崇拜命運神的人渣決一死戰的畫面，頓時津津樂道起來。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryRRpnKX5x
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNXwn43XSf
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvncYg869Dv
「別衝動，卡帕。你現在去向他們宣戰，只會得不償失。我們還不是他們的對手，你先把孩子們送回去，其他容後再說吧。」聽筒後堇金嚥下一口口水，再道：「你儘管記住，那兩個孩子是我們對抗命運的棋子，無論如何都不可以讓他們落到樞密院手上。」385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSNUXsehOo
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJ6vxj5btU
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oGkrEpKil
堇金義兄的說話，顯然不無道理。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFnCeL8luN
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdHfhDUK27
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAb1FINwlq
在未知樞密院一方到底掌握多少情報下，為免打草驚蛇，卡帕深明此趟不能借用堇紫青金打造的專屬列車，甚至不能帶上手下兄弟。他只能像到訪此地那般，裝成普通市民混進乘客之中，帶著默默離開。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fZizYtwom

聖火城沒有直通車直達黑輝淨土，必先要經浮光淨土轉乘長途線。而對於這麼一個中途站，除了想起那些人臉上那副自私自利的醜惡面容，早上看到一則關於城內怪病蔓延的新聞，亦讓他歷歷在目……385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCxflIMWB9

卡帕懷著速戰速決的意志，快步離開堇花塔，踏上集體傳送法陣趕往鄰區某遊樂場與手下會合。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb27DggRv97

385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIijFaLXPv
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFH6Ikwf9s8
在兩西裝男護送下，烏普西朗得意忘形地，才剛踏進滿是機動遊戲、歡呼聲不絕的主題樂園，便被從後趕至的卡帕抓住兩肩說道。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWRrJg6s1l
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6Cz4Ygort
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlIMvDtFSr
「怎樣怎樣？你找到伊歐鎝了嗎？你要帶我去找他嗎？」甫看到卡帕一副著緊抓住自己，烏普西朗便認為對方已經找到伊歐鎝的下落，夾雜興奮聲線連連吐出幾句問句。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnJtNuyo68
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciwcTei0XM
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL27JxP5Ubu
然而，卡帕只是搖著頭，推著烏普西朗回到入口方向，低聲在他耳邊照直說著：385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKTx45yWjB

烏普西朗仍未來得及反應，便被卡帕匆忙帶回聖火大酒店，進入頂樓套房收拾細軟。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5qybpUbp4

385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTfZp82MA5
一瞥魔匣屏幕裡停止更新的對話框，眼見情報組的兄弟亦未報上消息，卡帕也只好攜上神情呆滯的妲羽，再加上被略帶緊張的烏普西朗，分別為兩小孩穿上黑色斗篷後，便握緊未知多寡的時間赴往聖火城車站。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNyc4tpGTQ
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3x7YEVgzD
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZMt9QALOJ
順利成章地帶著兩個黑色小身影走過熙攘的車站大堂，無意中聽見當中途人細語閒談，提及到浮光淨土與怪病一事。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPysaaz0OX
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlE1hOPpQZ
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2E0G6LFxg

385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi41MqiDRvt
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdX6BlomKB2
然而卡帕無暇理會眾人恐慌流言，只管環盼四周，提防每片人海裡潛藏的伏兵。好不容易從售票員手上接過頭等車票，卡帕遂再次抓緊兩小孩的手，快步走下自動扶手梯往列車月台走去。385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1zFnv9wTK
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kSlNRpcKQ
385Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2JM6nCXP7
直至登上車廂，三人圍坐到頭等軟腍的座位上，卡帕才稍為鬆一口氣，交叉著腳滑起魔匣。而烏普西朗亦卸下黑斗篷上的兜帽，望向隔壁跟著脫下斗篷、正連忙把魔法帽子重新穩在頭上的妲羽發呆，緩緩從緊張繃緊之中放鬆過來，靜待列車把他們帶到安全地方。
