對流風在設施頂層颼颼吹動，砂石步道旁是循環水路潺潺。椿感到一股涼意，兩手抱肩拉著襟口。走在前面哼歌的墨鏡男子穿得暖呼呼，一點都不解風情。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRg9cYO093m

除了邀約時的輕浮態度之外，修的身上感覺不出任何邪念。也許，他跟女殺手之前面對的黑幫老爺一樣人面獸心，也有可能只是一個單純傻瓜。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYSEwgW4L7

只剩一邊引擎的禮車停在側面凹陷的小艇隔壁。為避免被害人起疑心，女殺手趕緊找話題聊，「剛才在酒館那場賭博，也是你的線路技巧嗎？手槍裡面有感應晶片……類似這種……」544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hXnRPOupD
544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQHcUKS3jB
「嗯？沒有啊，真的是純運氣⸺好！就選這台，幫我把風。」修蹲在老舊貨艇旁邊，把破解器黏到門上，不忘碎念。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCw70VF2QZ0

「我也想裝些晶片啊……但每次動改造手術都會失敗⸺醫師生病、刀子壞掉，診所還會被打劫……所以，如妳所見，我只能用小工具入侵低階系統……無人火車或是港口那些企業級伺服器就沒辦法了，它們主機在太空站被商會把持，能力高強的『術士』也不一定能進入。」544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmDAkkfvke

奴性堅強的四足機械載著藻胚商品爬進車廂。女郎半信半疑地環顧四周，不經意瞥見遠方天空。壁面隔板的微微反光下，有團黑影不斷蠢動。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9M6gLuV2X

怪客在震耳欲聾的振翅聲中自言自語，讓形成黑霧的昆蟲群體恣意覓食。就算有人目睹這個光景，也無法辨識那些黃黑相間的生物。因為就連地球都找不到它們蹤跡，更別說是宇宙邊境。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6KkXleZQ4

茫然自失的烏霸順著少女手指抬頭看去。舊式白色建築的三角屋簷上有座鐘樓，頂部立著一個太陽光輪護符，後方就是通天貫地的塔型收發裝置。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJFVucoMdj

昂天皇帝的石雕塑像平舉雙臂、高高在上地看著簡樸中殿。烏霸皺著眉，感覺不到任何神性。雪星努那的老家裡面，那個用樹枝搭成的圖騰還更能讓他肅然起敬。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRjRAAQxIZ

「嗯……」少女按下Do音鍵，隨著琴聲娓娓道來，「從我有記憶開始，就跟著凱笛希父女一起生活。米勒姐姐對我就跟親人一樣，完全不在意這雙奇怪的耳朵……但是，因為戰爭開始了，他們只好把我放在農場這裡，離危險區域越遠越好……」544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJECmpmOa7h

經過附近的訊號絕大多數都來自太空站。烏霸更加確信，這就是他要找的東西。封存已久的祕密重見天日⸺不只有亞克，木星圈艦隊戰時，札廣也通報米勒父親的情報給新月軍；土星戰役時，他又再次出賣OBU；直到最近，甚至還想私下跟帝國做生意。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8TcwUut2E

隨著年紀增長，強權束縛減弱之後，她才理解到：不管祈求皇帝、還是祈求被取代的古代神靈，都是希望身邊的人能夠活得安好。而最直接的實現方式，就是讓自己先伸出援手。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiL5m66S4S7

生存本能放大了漸漸逼近的惡意。廚房內的碗盤碰撞代表鴉還在那邊，她不敢輕舉妄動，深怕引起殺機，只能悄悄拿起手邊的半杯赤酒，準備面對近在咫尺的威脅。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WtRsplhZ2

進入戰鬥狀態的鴉衝出廚房，起腳跳過店主、順勢翻越吧檯，猛力踢向敵人。狼刃舉臂抵擋，還是被震退了數尺。殺氣騰騰的雙眼高速逼近，他只能忙著接招。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOVp0Ue0ly

口巾男子的鉤拳、掃腿從各個角度轟來；貫掌、踵落，每一擊都對準要害。當狼刃終於適應那個速度，腹腔馬上接到一發更快的痛打。要不是有耐衝擊的機械橫膈膜，他已經無法正常呼吸。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaCvdRL6Hr

刺客趕緊撐地後翻、拉開距離，對準礙事者發射鐵爪刀片。鴉屈膝撿起地上的鋼杯檔在身前，成功「捕獲」一根凶器，並將之拔出作勢投擲。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHeCcbq7CV

「何不乾脆搭火車呢？想辦法躲過身份掃描……」544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPdbsnn9jC
544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZn3krYquy
「搭火車就只能上貨船回太空站……那個地方不適合我。」修終於破開最後一道防火牆，先握拳慶祝，再伸手邀約。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBE28ysAJOZ

椿不想提及往事，正打算跟男子搭上貨艇時，突然看到一個暗紅人影跑上貨運列車。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCVLJ5fBJ2

汽笛鳴響，列車啟動引擎緩緩離站。那人在艙門關之起前探出車廂，用面具下的詭異笑容喊道：「你們誰都別想出去！下一班運來的，就是商會的大軍！」544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQFdofDFca

他隨後丟出一個類似遙控開關的裝置。椿發現四周車輛的底部發出紅色閃光，趕緊把修拉出載具。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVzlvOYO1l

「是炸彈！」544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQv0rBokXZR

轟隆爆響震撼大地，烈焰瞬間吞噬整座車庫。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuq4qQQLP3E

椿緊閉雙眼趴臥著，咬牙忍受空中熱氣灼燒皮膚，隱隱約約感覺到男人的軀體擋在身上。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Qd87WDh2K

爆風散去，灑水器開始作動。火光漸漸熄滅，逃過一劫的男女邊咳嗽邊站起身子，無助地望著腳邊滿滿的焦黑殘骸。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZH0IefvB9o
544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLM4IL4PQSi
「炸車？搞什麼……好險……」修拿下墨鏡，抹掉鼻頭的炭灰。椿看著他的黑臉皮和白眼圈，不知該笑、該哭，還是該驚訝。544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M1RJBQqlP

「你……是不死身？」544Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQqwljx1dH
