這場發生於聖誕節的戰爭，最後以能源局的狼狽勝利收場。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGXhOg8THj
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEq5XNaafFu
為了應付嚴苛戰事而組織的精銳部隊，在戰鬥中卻將近三成沒能安然回歸。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPsw3YvWcQ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xFndvw7Ef
戰勝的消息傳回能源局之後，負責探勘的隊伍開始確認生還的居民，以及貧民窟內部的建築狀況。由於交通工具總是受地形阻礙，推演的速度相當緩慢。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0slQpmN1p
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjsuo6eXNf
清理出安全的道路後，在軍隊的護送下，拆除大隊與某些人道團體成功進入貧民窟，展開了八年來第一次除了邊境鎮壓以外的互動。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7adVUhMIK
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡop3X91C4hP
從最外圍開始，拆除團隊逐漸改造扭曲的街道、不穩固的樓房。為了保持警戒，可以看見軍人與工程師同時出現在工地內的景象。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiSHs0kOm4
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqm5zMEVBLI
雖然這場戰爭在其他地區掀起軒然大波，由於不過是數年前，人們就曾經目睹科學發展帶來的慘劇，疑惑的群眾幾乎一面倒向責備能源局。即便如此，長期掌控著社會生態的能源局，在熟練迅速的壓制下，輿論並沒有造成什麼障礙。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTlYSVyQ4n
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlG0EyPkmAL
尤其是時值冬末，讓人無法提起活力的天氣煩惱著這座都市的所有人。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqmlD3dKfJ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAedtk7obBc
季風雨持續降下，遲遲等不到晴朗的天空。依照觀測，恐怕會是二十年以來最漫長、也將會是最寒冷的冬雨季。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7JxclxZ6m
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuPRN6Ze2Y
分明是新年，令人不快的陰鬱氣息卻籠罩在這座高科技都市上。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIV82dLP7CO
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8WWWHmFyy
同時，從外圍的城市開始響起警報聲。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlVbYoH7vu
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaONoHao4L
距離高盧游擊部隊完全集結，朝中央發展區展開總攻擊，還有兩個小時。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx05gQ8isZY

混雜在紛擾的雨聲裡，黑夜之中傳來引擎沉悶運轉的聲音。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrnu1BJvYP
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImebBI19wc
漆黑巷道的盡頭出現了逃亡者狼狽的身影。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyesS4xjT6U
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGlYivNslv
摩托車的頭燈照亮四周的殘骸，勉強地開拓了視線。依奴駕駛著傷痕累累的愛車，僅僅以不至於讓車身翻倒的緩慢速度前進。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xLrcfBAB6
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrk5DNEyS1P
持續跑在街道中又過了數分鐘，眼前所見的場景幾乎沒有變化，赫恩沒辦法從這些廢墟中分辨出什麼差別，也不曉得他究竟要往哪裡走。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtekAFXB1fP
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TvzQ9QTub
依奴從剛剛開始就不發一語，他弓著背並且把頭壓得很低，抓住龍頭的雙手明顯地過度使力，正微微發抖著。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnwGerDeXi
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3P8JGQkK3
雖然感到不安，赫恩只是靜靜抱著他，不敢多問什麼。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxReD1hPBNG
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrV0JCrdCM
這場戰爭，從開始到現在的平息，究竟經過了多少時間？赫恩覺得自己的時間感已經被打亂了，所有經歷過的事件在腦中都攪和成一團。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUbT2winQ6
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudlQKz2zGV
燃燒、傾倒、萎縮。各式各樣的畫面破碎成片段，全部溶解在摩托車彷彿無止境的低沉引擎聲中。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAd2xpf90TZ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9z9IbVVOg
還要多久才能抵達目的地呢？或者會永遠這麼運轉下去呢？原來，逃亡是件這麼沉重苦悶的事情。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumubBnW83k
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0W7oJkYT6
正當赫恩已經陷入迷濛的睏意中時，景色的轉變重新牽動了她的注意力。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTzwl4GNtw
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQjuRh07sr
她仰起頭，望向突然間就展開的開闊天空。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaatOt2QVk
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZlZwL31YM
橫跨了整個混亂的建築區域後，四周的景色居然開朗了起來。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgpMlNlvMO
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRlHoDlhKL
彷彿在宣告著目的地已經到達，東方的天空此時漾起了光芒。厚重的雲層遮蔽了黎明，但純潔無瑕的晨光渲染開來，視野逐漸變得清晰。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7ruhHWmo4
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WQ4IlXvoo
赫恩藉著初晨黯淡的亮度，環視周圍陌生的風貌。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhDRFlwBsu
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvAZu1FtyB
摩托車所經的地方，似乎曾經是某個重要的區塊。舊時代都市的街區、歪斜的交通號誌，甚至是柏油路面上的號誌線，這些規劃完整的建設依然留有痕跡。十字路口上停擺著廢棄的車輛、輸電用的纜線也在樓房間穿梭。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8sYAdOlEC
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGLahiTjFW
成排的商店與公司坐落在主要幹道左右，依稀能想像這個市區以前的繁榮光景。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpSjnSJhAg
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EWxOgS3kD
傾斜的鐘塔、荒蕪的小型公園和鏽蝕的郵筒都還存在。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhhJMOA5qK
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugBWtp4TJC
這是赫恩首次見到舊世代的都市，包括現代已經不存在的電線桿、霓虹燈招牌、電話亭、郵筒等等，這裡有許多她無法理解的設施。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWC95Wmjdg
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rVeylkX29
摩托車來到某個建築物前方，跑了一整夜的雙輪終於不再運轉。只不過，依奴並沒有準備任何停車下車的動作，他仍然僵硬地緊握著油門──463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sPxGp1fga
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIh7IOcDW1o
滑行了一小段距離後，失去控制的車體就這麼往側邊傾倒下去。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDnAQ659cK
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eOvfxVFX7
「唔嗚！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSerzp42gr
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSyvf0A8tx
抱著他的赫恩嚇了一大跳，她放開手臂跳開，狼狽地往旁邊跌坐，差一點被摩托車的笨重車體砸中。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmbceMgOPY
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ctv1r9y6A
但依奴就沒那麼幸運了，摩托車正好壓在他的身上。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBySwAIk5V
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLdlfNt8Io
「依奴！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHisakWRDM
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSirinYto9
赫恩慌張地向前去，把車鑰匙拔出來讓引擎熄火後，費了一番功夫才將笨重的車身移開，並且將依奴從下面拖了出來。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEGE6DISRu
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNygfPJ8hpS
即使如此，依奴仍然一動也不動。他趴伏在地上，甚至連半點呼吸或喘息聲都聽不見。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1FLdM3HBA
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0p0OYtEXqD
赫恩讓他靠坐在車體旁，輕輕摘下那頂貝雷帽，將他低垂的臉托起。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQNgsGMSxs
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDaoCQnShS
「依奴──」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPvhbOTKeC
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQQbZk15Ri
脫口喊出對方的名字後，赫恩迅速地止住了話音，再也無法說下去。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijFt7yeDDW
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNEydGOowM
依奴的面容失去了以往的樣貌。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg09yRHExVS
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejzLbxy5XR
在黎明的微光下，她能夠清晰地從領口看見——黑色的血管紋路，從依奴的胸口向上方蔓延，雖然血管的走勢在頸部附近就停止了，但依然有幾條怵目驚心的紋路爬上了他的臉頰。擴張的青色血管扭曲了表面的皮膚，像植物的根部般盤踞著，除了病態與扭曲以外，無法讓人有更多的聯想。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8L7lnksd4M
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXPtUYYmRg
不，並不是爐光侵蝕症候群。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiyVt2uWsP
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOZrP7v1Yk
感覺不到輻射汙染的氣息。所以，她對於這個狀況無能為力。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83daSaEgQJ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHntVoPGM4
原本那精緻且秀氣、甚至堪稱為美麗的面孔，竟然被侵蝕成這副模樣。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusoQ4dcLad
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzRIQggetw
赫恩動手解開依奴的外套，將他的衣領拉開。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNMiP656tL
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0HIAXim9t
黑色血管是從左胸口開始蔓延的，越接近心臟，出現的血管就越粗大，宛如被寄生般相當恐怖。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrt7xiXh7QJ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiuOQyDb5O
她試探性地抓起依奴的手掌放在臉頰上，傳來的是令人不安的冰涼。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSjeCljrLo
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyq4ejMHrX7
他還有微弱的呼吸，保住了虛弱的命，但不知道什麼時候才會從昏迷中醒過來。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcputgeCIJ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xUVuuav3f
雨還在下，不過勢頭已經減緩許多，紛亂的聲響也降低不少。徒留下濕潤與空虛的寒冷，仍舊在吐息間流竄著。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡND6dRTj6g9
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbqt1PP6VP
她重新站起，確認四周圍的請況。這塊保留完整的舊街區其實相當小，在逐漸明朗的光線下，都市的輪廓已經緩緩成形。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnnqH4OYNB
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbZHQXtrl5
八年前，建設在這裡的閻融爐暴走時，擴散的能量震盪所摧毀的建築物數量，大概佔整座桔梗區的三分之一，剩下的部分即使還勉強留存著模樣，但供電系統等等軟體設施已經全部報銷，對都市來說等於是機能癱瘓。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpluqD7WiD0
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweIrXDBOcU
重建工程展開時，為了降低新建材的需求，曾經大規模地拆除還留有主體的地區，把廢建築內完好的鋼材、玻璃等等資源回收，送往開闊地帶建造新的居住區。再加上難民們當時並不知道這些重建建築將會成為他們永久性的巢穴，所以對於重建工程並沒有細心規劃，導致發展區內零零落落地到處都看得到難民營，交通路線也是九彎十八拐。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2PxtTubRj
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApjrRujRqG
但是現在出現在赫恩面前的，卻是完好如初的舊街區。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNB0UUFZlQ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb95MyoIg1M
沒有被能量震波轟垮、沒有被回收作業拆除、亦沒有被胡亂的重建計畫改造，還保留著八年前那夜之後的殘敗模樣。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMc9axf9Qpd
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQYaomDqBM
唯一的可能性，就是到來的軍隊曾經刻意避免了難民與這塊區域的接觸，將其作為重點區域封鎖住了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjNxkqDWWJ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLi2FXFNMr
這片涵蓋四個十字路口，長寬不過數百公尺的範圍，從外表上看去毫無特出之處，至少憑著赫恩的經驗，這些沒看過的建築在當時應該也不是研究機構或者政治中心之類的，研究機構不長這個樣子。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LQdO3trtp
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJAQnBswKn
回過身去，看向依奴最後停駐的那個地方。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilgBk0ULTN
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6NftaFLID
雖然那棟建築物是這附近最接近科學機構的，但明顯設在門口的橫幅矮牆上，刻著某某醫院的名字。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIvnnG0Iqc
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5f2Ya7Rmt
急診室的入口、救護車的出入車道、以及一般病患出入的大門都具備，雖然被拉上的鐵捲門嚴謹封死，但應該就如同名字顯示的，是普通的醫院吧。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsXLynwEFg
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKeOzzjVum
赫恩盡可能地仰高脖子，想看看醫院的全貌是什麼樣子。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3zNTj0VP9
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWl4jeX8lX
就在這時，身旁傳來了微弱的呻吟。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLxGU3GC6L
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KLuYSnnBp
「……唔……咕嗚、咳咳咳！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhvlx8cNF1
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGTL3Gpsfq
依奴皺起眉頭，試圖深吸一口氣，肺部的收縮似乎造成了痛楚。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG349knJPu7
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoIuQaL18d
他伸手抓緊了胸口一面咳嗽，並且掙扎地爬起。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgmQ7MaD9g
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKrVbbhLKT
赫恩連忙跑過去扶助依奴，幸好依奴很快就恢復狀況，硬撐著剛甦醒的意識，勉強讓自己重新站直。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWJ3emcv0T
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNEuKb1tcz
他臉上的血管出現了細微的蠕動，隨著大口喘息的動作而顫抖，模樣相當嚇人。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHumWOg4BEu
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyD8EtPrbVF
「……赫恩，妳還好嗎？沒有受傷吧？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhCApg0t26
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeojXSMtRmB
他開口詢問著，但事實上自己的腳步更加不穩。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSZZDhznT9
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfyG4p5MdZ
依奴閉著左眼，伸手從摩托車上扯下背包。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKAzaUb8EY
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMSDyuS2Z7
他用發抖的手拉開行囊，從藥罐中倒出止痛藥片，仰頸吞嚥下去。經過幾分鐘的調整呼吸後，氣色才漸漸好轉。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVTyxWK2E7
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxME6Dpt8IO
他將倒地的摩托車拉起立直，然後放鬆地用力吸了一口長氣。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjugIqRkIPc
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvPmNe5fkc
就像往常一樣，他拿出保溫杯倒了一份冒著蒸氣的溫水給赫恩。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFS1uRO2vgW
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36EHcrjhYC
「依奴的身體究竟……怎麼了？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5T7pALhKxD
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1thK30eFU
「不用替我擔心，看樣子是平安撐過來了。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqr12ZJd4u
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHpxaXA2TX
「所以剛剛身處在最危險的狀況之中嗎？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqZfFNkWLv
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9psLcYFo8r
「我早就習慣了。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhQrbkrdGq
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vtAJmB49G
依奴垂下雙眸，即使依舊是名少年，他習慣性的表情卻總是透著難以言喻的沉鬱，雖然他未曾用言辭表達，但心中一定壓抑著什麼。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMy0wLJ1LLH
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBJBmap0Ex
赫恩握著溫熱的杯子，呆呆地盯著依奴看。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iuAZA4MyT
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGxMSWmobi
只不過是一天前，同樣是在黎明時觀看這個男孩的側臉，樣貌卻已經完全不同。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx8yE0sXyL
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitBEevOyzT
雨季的厚雲剝奪了陽光的溫度，而少年漂亮的面容也已經被恐怖的傷痕摧毀。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEbxYojHcc
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fwVBE1EFX
赫恩輕輕啜飲了一口溫開水，好在至少這份溫度依然留存著。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lvIChNyHj
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9v7WaxZyf1
「赫恩，覺得累嗎？或者是飢餓？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNgvmjBrNX
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRU5Euq7Ae2
赫恩搖了搖頭，她自覺不該再提出更多要求了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsdyRHA0k3
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZu7vT7LRDz
依奴撫摸著摩托車上的淒慘傷痕，開口說：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJAKpzkaF2
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7swukwE3P
「我答應過旭夜，只要發生危機，就一定要把妳帶來這裡。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1Cp1fXBGl
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvDQugDftb
「這裡是？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIou7xpQ8A
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nXW1wblAW
「算是城市邊陲地帶的市區，從這裡繼續往西的話就能看到海岸了。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7mYam0BUk
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61uXJwqvVJ
「為什麼旭夜要你帶我來呢？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76jiuGvmX6
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8B50xfqftw
「這裡是受到閻融爐爆炸的傷害較小的災區外圍，距離政府軍能利用的入口也相當遠。碎片瓦礫堆積而成的小山形成了絕佳屏障。如果不是像我一樣知道正確的走法，又沒有空中攝影機做引導，並且開著重型工程車鏟除路障的話，兩三天內幾乎不可能穿越複雜的貧民窟廢墟，抵達這個地方。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CHzKQjvFO
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yO9NhQfuC
依奴指了指身後的醫院：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJv3u6PdRf
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBN5Gnmtai
「但不曉得貧民窟現在的狀況實際上如何了，我們能待的時間也不多。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwEsX2bx0y
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwAMgwOBVC
赫恩似懂非懂地點了點頭，她喝掉溫水，向依奴遞出杯蓋。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GohIlQZ98
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfVFL2nb2o
依奴原本沒做多想就要去接，但他在最後一刻頓住了，回想起昨天高架公路上的經驗，讓他很快的又把手抽回來。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMqyD5CMR5
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cCvmYgDj6
「說在前面，別再握住我的手了。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDfpH3jJU5
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRr5VRjtdz9
「不可以嗎？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTkzAIFRYH
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFjTThpFuB
「妳真的打算握？」看著赫恩毫無多慮的疑惑表情，依奴輕嘆了口氣。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIY6TPfSevN
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJQOvHHZO8
「把杯蓋給我。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpHIkl6BSa
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCihazTjnRm
「就讓我握一下吧。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8DKMqPKok
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk4uXXfDWW
「不，別別鬧了，快還我。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4uHw43NOA
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoLXYaiYhS
「依奴。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIT4YoRIzF2
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLF9yAHPRg
「……」依奴怔了怔，他踟躕沉默了下，才莫可奈何地伸出手掌。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQNOvg9444
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GFQxq5Xe0
赫恩緊緊抓住了那隻手，並且向依奴走近。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd89b8y22y
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63wSH0EeKg
她將依奴的手撫貼在臉頰上，感受著已經漸漸回歸肌膚之間、流淌著血液的熱量。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZcaiUawCW
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lJhCC2R1e
彷彿藉此確認了什麼，赫恩放鬆地閉上雙眼。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvC5cZNM7D
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Tk1C6mcRL
「溫度回來了。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkA7xS8O0h
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkN8FLCQfE
「好了嗎？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTliyNZFUIJ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCPb6zWpCT
「再稍微這樣一下子。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBNQrGxjn7
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKA1GjFySXs
像是在彌補之前的擔憂般，赫恩仍然緊握著不放，兩人就這麼僵持了數秒，對依奴來說還真是相當尷尬的體驗。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObdqx0j8k3
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTplwzX0H5e
但是，看到赫恩穩定安適的表情，他更不想打斷這樣的片刻。由於自己的手掌比較冰冷些，赫恩臉頰的溫熱感也渲染到了手上，依奴若有所思地感受著這份溫度。他深感慶幸，此刻的他竟然還留有性命，能觸及她的臉頰。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtRv3Wd7Ko
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpShqNgehD
或者說，他就是為了奪回這份真實感，才能夠苟延殘喘到此刻──463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouCj0khRyG
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0H0xeRHnVS
「赫恩，差不多了吧。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVQg9yE77G
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvjIGVj7hB
「電量尚未充飽，距離完全充電還有兩個小時。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRFW5SlbT5
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglsY6gOuIA
「喂。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFWzl3D14I
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucuT4zb0Ez
「現在移除裝置可能導致不可預測的資料損毀，確定要移除嗎？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UXPj9Qoqq
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUTPEnvrZb
依奴不再顧慮什麼，冷淡地抽回手掌。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqWOyh2vFQ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVjdvp19Ed
恢復平靜後，他把摩托車藏到建築的陰暗處，用垃圾桶和廢帆布稍微遮掩。接著用鋼索發射器朝醫院的二樓開了一槍，拉出堅韌的繩索。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NFQSYh4kw

抱起赫恩後，他踩上旁邊的汽車當作階梯，墊了一步，順著跳躍的勢子往上飛升。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoAQp46gG1
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi784JwxGH4
依奴一腳踏破玻璃窗，穩當地在醫院二樓的走廊上降落。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9WWKGr1gg
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mvT72Rzsk
玻璃碎塊零落地四散一地，在積滿灰塵地地面上刮出痕跡。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkVkOHBHno
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvgDqq6ffB
赫恩還是不太習慣這種三度空間式的移動方式，因為暈眩而意識搖晃了下。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjUZuoKNxA
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv78dMHKecz
她扶著牆壁環視四周，內部除了尋常地醫療機構之外，並沒有什麼奇特處。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwM3cQxK0Kp

「依奴，為什麼要來這裡？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLBtKakBh4
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOQiBi2LYc
「建築物下層有間資源倉庫。包括貧民窟可能短時間內就會被攻陷在內，旭夜機會把所有可能性都做足了保險。我常常負責將一些非常貴重的物資轉移到這裡來。目前首先要補充彈藥和汽油，再來決定下一步。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDobdCqjcJ

「跟上來。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yOz90Ydy7
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5u6ZEQ19B
依奴並沒有正面回答赫恩，他收起鋼索發射器掛在腰上，往走廊的另一頭踏出步伐。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaFHVuaDKV
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih2vmKWpte
醫院裡瀰漫著某種難以言喻的臭味，大多是水氣的濕臭，但隱隱約約似乎也包含著藥品的刺鼻味道。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrGyp6X1eG
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtJVySSwMl
「稍微忍耐一下吧，畢竟從黑色聖夜之後就沒有整理過了，」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9SLmdfwYb
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkt60nz5ufO
依奴用平淡的口氣說：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYaP6KfFzV
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqblze2aqDR
「而且，也根本無從整理起呢。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRFUNiEL78
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVDzkxVWG4
赫恩乖巧地緊跟著他的腳步，迅速通過了長廊，沿著已經停擺的手扶梯往樓下走。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVBnpbnOOZ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFo2sTJYrsH
醫院裡的狀況相當慘烈，牆面上的污漬、傾倒的醫療器材等等，看起來非常不祥。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbuSCffqUF
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkjbKYoC5u
她腦中一面忍不住想像著黑色聖夜當時這座醫院的狀況。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71B00zToi5
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFLUNONYHZ
閻融爐暴走造成的都市機能癱瘓，把這座城市幾乎所有的電子設備都燒毀了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTvhnCCw0W
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbxJGgvk6b
那些藉由先進醫療器材延續生命的病人們，在斷電的當下是怎麼想的？而那些剩下的人們沿著靜止的電扶梯徒步逃亡，砸毀不聽使喚的自動大門，互相推擠著、叫嚷著奪門而出。，走在一片漆黑的街道上，是如何的絕望。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpW9gIsEOzR
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlMBaiiHcO
赫恩想像著，體會著當時人們的惶恐、絕望。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPZWSTtpA5
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PxIUKj6r4
兩人來到了一樓的入口大廳。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBloJB67x7
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMcmfjbuMY
赫恩被眼前的景象震懾住了，她僵立在手扶梯旁，許久無法發出任何聲音。眼前的大廳，由於門口被鐵捲門阻擋，缺乏光線而顯得幽暗。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZMHWvkP0Q
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sxqYgDOzO
但在不清晰的亮度之下依然能辨識出，那是極端非人道的慘狀。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1I3NTv7vF
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTLmG8e50v
在大廳的盡頭有個巨大的缺口，明顯是用炸藥摧毀出的破洞。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSxtvL5Ixq
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1M7L22bj6
從缺口處到醫院的出口，這一段短短的空間，卻是最為悽慘的「激戰區」。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkG77wdY91w
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡam0LuzDx7I
崩落的牆面、散落的磁磚、暴露的鋼筋。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWnwQrVMHw

徒留下形狀，散落於各處，無人為其收拾的、人的死骸。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdygHk07Es
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1DJXuaMBn
一定是在這座城鎮化為廢墟之後就置之不理了吧？經過了這麼長久的時間，大多數的死屍都會被野生動物拖走、被昆蟲分解掉，然而依然有些痕跡遺留了下來。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8x3SOcd5lI
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1UUvYGhgg
四周能找到不少燃料瓶的空罐——居然在如此狹窄的室內空間裡選擇用上火焰發射器，光是這樣的行為本身就充滿了殺意。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBjBKLC87Y
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQm5TJlQgE
面對能夠將整個大廳的氧氣都燒乾的熱焰攻勢，別說是留下全屍了，那樣就連靈魂都無法得到安寧的死亡吧。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QLvoLpw1a
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19Mm2IxbYa
但為什麼要在這樣的地方作戰？甚至還用這麼重的手段？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUR993QWoo5

依奴說著，站到大廳的正中央。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uHrDikZ93
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTZPwygEuy
他彷彿在回味著陳舊血腥的洗禮一般，寧靜地佇立在屍堆之中，不過即使背對著赫恩，她也能感受到依奴此刻的情緒是如何的沉重。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxmQBw2Z2T

「最後的最後，我們也只殘留下了這點痕跡嗎。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEJjnSSbEE

「沒錯，」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6aTjolgnT
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyYrmfGb5r
依奴緩緩回過身來，低沉著嗓音，就像回答再自然不過的問題般，輕撫著自己面頰上攀附的扭曲紋路，向赫恩開口：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHCLGQTfmL

外面傳來了腳步聲。踏在堅硬地板上的敲擊聲實在太刺耳了，她已經快被這種聲音弄到抓狂了。還有耳語！隔著牆壁傳來的，隱隱約約的對談聲，途中甚至還能聽到自己的名字混雜在內，這樣的折磨也足夠讓心靈枯槁了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7I0o7KID1

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2L9L69JNuT
外面的光線瞬即朝她伸出指爪，譚雅就像被一把白色的利刃穿刺般疼痛地瞇起雙眼，她急遽地朝後方退開，背部重重撞在牆壁上。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnjZqRxa8y

馴狗人的超兵計畫，傾向於加強軍人與軍犬的同步性。因為光靠攝影機的偵查效能不佳，而且儲電量會影響作戰時間。如果馴狗人和軍犬本身能夠以無償的方式交換情報，就能大大提升作戰的靈活度，於是依奴這樣的生物就誕生了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rMDQwnIxd

無論是人或軍犬，任何一方面臨死亡時所經歷的痛楚，都會由另一方承受。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgq0gEdS32N
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDeWFnY7Xu
能夠使生命逝去的方法千奇百怪，無論刀傷、槍傷、斬首或心臟遭到穿刺，無一例外地，還活著的那一方都會以活著的狀態，體驗死亡的感覺。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtwmZ6PQzp
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6J6PBSxJi
「在多數狀況下，死亡體驗時常刺激過度，讓另一端活著的大腦也麻痺，造成雙方死亡。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVpTkk8zWh

「但是依奴……」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW0iSVdviv

「已經過了好幾年，我的成長加上象牙也會衰老，拜此所赐感應能力已經沒有當年那麼精準了吧。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nqWUWPwFF
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1c1uOa5Glx
說是僥倖也有些太樂觀。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKl6XO9Z43S
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCydmQhb222
依奴就像是要將餘悸迷濛的不快感清除一般，深深地吸了一口氣。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnK04VEolU
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QMcRtmZ2o
「胸口被子彈貫穿的經驗，我倒是紮紮實實地體驗了一次。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5dJN240bF
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvClihX7dOU
由於劇烈的痛楚，依奴瀕死的痙攣讓肉體變成了如今醜陋的模樣。那個當下就連肺臟也差一點失去功能，讓依奴幾乎無法呼吸到足夠量的氧氣。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8jkNQpRua
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkruqGrwZX
「這樣的事情已經再也不會發生了。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtg2PMiB2b

世界上最後一條馴狗人的軍犬已經喪命了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHf5aISKCSm
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoXLRaHpKt
下一次面臨死亡的感覺時，就再也睜不開眼睛了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFQaqp5OP2
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3X7TdDu6YQ
值得慶幸嗎？應該感到安慰嗎？至少已經脫離了怪物的行列吧。依奴不善長對一件事情的轉折表現出情感，他習慣默默地接受發生在自己身邊的變化。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03xdPlxNox
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdvkaxeaJl
即便象牙已經死去了，他也不認為應該感到哀働。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WzOjJZU4B
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBxmDFcbDx
象牙對自己來說是什麼樣的存在呢？是寵物抑或是夥伴？甚至能夠說是自己身體的一部份吧？但另個層面來看，象牙的存在也不過是依奴過去悲慘經驗的陰影罷了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOP4BfJgHJg
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOSXcRNW1z
他們是那段黑歷史的最後根據。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8CpQ7Gm6P
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuSyh5anjg
此刻連同馴狗人的研究場一同埋葬了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAxNVBIOup
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2wGUbQ85R
赫恩若有所思地凝視著無人的街道。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZkE4qPy7X
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniXq5bwuNJ
「或許有那麼一點吧，在妳身上找到『自己的投影』。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVibE6iSK0i
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHvKBxNIH3
依奴低垂著頭，淡淡地說：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bTVjdg4Tq
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzPSVChkjK
「所以，想要將妳從這個都市中拉出來的心情，我能篤定自己是認真的。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZSfyfDM2r

「依奴當時是怎麼逃出來的呢？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7mA4eryql
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbilOh3YQO
「我很感謝『黑色聖夜』。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyt48rBeyU
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkgV0MQnPZ
赫恩對於依奴的發言，露出了疑惑的表情。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEGmK1eq5N
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2w4D6Zajmj
「黑色聖夜發生後，訓練機構中的警備系統癱瘓，我們率領著自己的狼犬，突破研究室的大門，殺死逃竄的科學家，從警衛手中奪走槍枝。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAk1vqDOzdH
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU08VkBZ0jl
最後，用炸藥在醫院的地板上製造了通道。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41w8zDydAY
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrjlxGnXgy
我們是以軍人為前提訓練的孩子，所以要突破一所醫院是輕而易舉。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7l0z5EgXLa
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbLELmBSbU
不，正確來說，尚年幼的我們無法拿捏分寸。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOKjiOs5gf
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54y7H6yV0B
我們還來不及學會如何「正確地殺戮」。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIs54An139q
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPksKeB71o5
因此，我們解放了自己的憎恨。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2STyVrG6fI
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqDzWvoNZj
不分對象、沒有目的、只為做而做的掠奪性命。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yrFKzeLpw
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOMkg9ggoS
無數無辜的人死了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlD7cglJF0A
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHn2qqJhkmB
要說我們「如同野獸一般」這樣的形容法是不精確的。因為受盡折磨的孩子與遭到囚困的狼犬們，兩者之間的恨意重疊、融合，最後那是跟獸性沒有兩樣的情緒。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgk1mlgZ9b2
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjA1CwOGGX
從牢籠支中掙脫，親手得到了染滿鮮血的「自由」後，我們放手做盡自己擅長之事。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNt1l0uNh11
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHJ84WvTR0
過不了多久，來自中央發展區的鎮壓軍隊封鎖了醫院，展開肅清。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwm0BvIWZTt
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGyM6Ae2jt
「才會留下這樣的痕跡……」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZyBtmFBp1
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccv97qkGpz
「嗯，除了我以外，醫院裡沒有任何人生還。長達兩個小時的僵持戰鬥，也讓對方犧牲了將近六十名軍人。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgmcCbJAa8
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKD5Px4r2mR
「不過依奴最後成功離開了這座城市對吧？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyx2MsAnlX
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPddiQmwQ3Z
「我在邊境遊蕩了整整一個月，最後遇到了倫斯。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJj50Ufy8T
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0LVUN59AW
倫斯把我帶到高盧生活，為了讓即使是怪物的我也能生存下去，他帶著我到處去尋找戰爭，從中賺錢。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BKHYGyVEL
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJv3tZO7zOX
「也就是傭兵？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLEVacqX5B
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLG4P7U7cau
「嗯，當時我覺得並沒有什麼不好。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUbwXO4PyQ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSL58kszl5
應當說，他相當感謝倫斯給了他一條新的道路。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGBSrZdeun

當生存的選擇從零變成一時，無論什麼人都會欣喜若狂吧。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zexqJ15rw
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRWIGE5doo
最後整個傭兵團被游擊隊吸收，然後輾轉認識了旭夜，才真正了解了自己以前生活的都市。能源局為了塑造這座先進的閻動都市，究竟犧牲了多少外人？時至今日就算再探究也毫無意義，只要明白……閻融爐所帶來的災厄比利益更多就足夠了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfPryFcYlK
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uVCIvt4GX
「但是，」赫恩的話音走到嘴邊，她踟躕地沉默了數秒。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTy1AZ1VYgC
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhly4ti0vr
依奴的表情沒有變化，不過這副事不關己的姿態，在她眼中早已經藏不住什麼。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbCH9t48n7
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TIMf15yaF
那雙冷漠的眼眸中並不是毫無感情的。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwYEVWU0rQ

「為什麼選擇回來呢？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURb5R63FVi

赫恩就像對著空氣探問般，輕盈地訴說：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVXcB36cWw
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OTfTqAJMF
「你為什麼回到曾經逃離的地方呢？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0YGnqiE8D

首先在鐵檻的鎖頭上敲下第一錘的，是掀起所有慘劇的、純白的少女。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlg1DT8a8v
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcts4fxJypU
由於她的存在，我們這些生存於黑暗之中的人們所期待的「崩塌」才能擴展。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtawzOtmJ19

依奴將手臂向後支撐，仰起視線欣賞逐漸開朗的清晨天空。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIMYZxqG4e
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmw4kQ6VwPC
「赫恩，妳就是我的『存在價值』。我是因為妳才活下來的，那麼接下來我要為了妳而活著，我覺得應該如此，而且我也喜歡這個決定。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCgbdhkNAg
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSwMIy8omR
自由的意義在於──能夠由自己定義自己的價值。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUkuk5W9AZ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCMveCGtPg
依奴所歸屬的『價值』，僅僅是與赫恩相遇。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ti2VbJfsZ

「不……不行。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99juzDnqAa
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoO2cSP5e9h
赫恩搖了搖頭，沉下雙眸並且避開了依奴的視線。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmQfmAgYUB
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLI71yKYYk6
「我的存在能夠讓誰獲得自由、值得讓誰來犧牲奉獻——依奴現在所說的話……總覺得好可怕。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pXK2nTSnA
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvq4y4oAh1
赫恩瑟縮著身體，凌駕於寒冷之上的理由，讓她畏縮地環抱著自己。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMsUidZryw
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnKzaZGtMy
拯救、回報、恩惠、生存價值之類的飄渺字眼，太過銳利了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgMEfmCpBm
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8fDmgxXoQ
如果把那些語言套在自己身上，那麼黑色聖夜所帶來的死亡，那些直到今日依然徘徊於她的腦海中的働哭與低喃，他們的存在意義又如何？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzaBgS4TrK
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6HkFVnND3
那些聲音，那些死亡。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjE3uvdC6Hp

她能夠擺脫那些混濁的過往，自私地追求自己的解放嗎？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEc7lZObE4o
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaWs9odblJ
屬於「黑色聖夜」的真實只能有一個。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWjdOVZwVF

「依奴，我是造成大家死亡的『災難』……」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSlmcKaoXf
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4s4Tv4r25F
赫恩搖晃著腦袋，濕潤的銀白色髮絲因此狼狽地搖晃。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6LR3sRiSr
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRPfkn1EGJ
她不自覺地用雙手掌掐緊自己的脖子，試圖讓與上地雜亂思緒窒息。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAKIyGv6qb
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LWWJi2h28
現在衝擊著胸口的這種感覺，是感情嗎？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHPzihc4qw
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecEV0JiOKo
這就是恐懼嗎？463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFlssDT0DQ

463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98yzIxRD8C
她迷惘地低喃，無法理解如何啜泣的她，只能不停顫抖著。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbh8OyPOC6
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iAqTsgz38
「如果總有一天，保護著我的依奴也會像那些死去的人一樣，被災難的陰影吞噬掉，在我腦中化為虛無的殘影，這樣的話我不要……」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXntv1qeV06
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPe4cD698hc
「赫恩，看著我，我還活著！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32NKJIPUEr
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS81PvLRpgd
她驚愕地抬起頭。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7amRyhZoaU
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYxNBKcopC
下一秒，依奴伸出手臂，將她瘦弱的身體摟進懷裡，赫恩的臉側緊貼著少年的胸膛。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaaWS4dEGt
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5w0BFQJVAM
「聽見了嗎，這個心跳聲？聽到血液撞擊心室的聲響了吧？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjzw9Dmc4P
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvCmnHN69G
依奴低著頭，在赫恩耳際輕與呢喃：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlW3Qn1Jqt
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Qz58QEHb4
「把視線放在我身上！妳存在的此刻，我和妳一樣存在著。如果妳必須為那些早已無法吐息的死者背負罪咎，那麼現在抱著妳的我該怎麼辦？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3q1bNfADY
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmsAZA1zN4
「可是……」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡborJxYhhH6
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfVuz9iznG
依奴將赫恩抱得更緊，令她無法喘息。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7CkU5jNio
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRG7N9HMC1q
「妳沒有做錯！自始自終存在的，就僅僅是妳自己而已！別自作多情了！死者就是死者，過去就是過去，妳才沒有背負性命獲罪業的權力！將我從地獄之中拯救之後，接下來赫恩必須拯救的，僅能拯救就是妳自己！不是為了誰，是為了赫恩妳！」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOGKNnJ0Js
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5J5m920w2
赫恩因為驚愕而睜大的雙眼，隨著少年的話音逐漸恢復了神色。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLS2cGDIP7Y
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5S6Pgb6V2P
虛脫感在她嬌小的身軀上擴散，就像剛剛從恐怖的惡夢裡掙脫，赫恩輕輕加深了呼吸，不再恐慌地顫抖。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcDsFRLAmR
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnoj8sGoYG
倚靠著依奴的身體，她安逸地閉起雙眸。接著，像是要讓對方知道自己已經沒事了，她發出了微弱地聲音：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0vfKm12Lh
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ywMgZskKd
「依奴的胸膛……很溫暖。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNZcLVPhhO
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMRx90SIQH
「感受到了嗎？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAGgZcNlkl

「嗯，感受到了，活著的依奴，還有活著的我自己。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5M0rR0D86
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIAhGsxPf3
所以，已經沒有問題了。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64IHd51y6d
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBbuYYEmli
微風的低吟填充了對話的沉默，穿梭於曾被砲火責罰過後的都市。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJH2isAlCWm
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyY2OvzglQK
彷彿在確認彼此的容身之處，依奴與赫恩感受著對方的存在，試著用這一點點微薄的證明，讓彼此不致於迷惘在這片廢墟當中。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRT2aaTipVg
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItTyST1q1j
不知過了多久，響起的細碎電子音才打斷了他們的沉默。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmQH90WA8n
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59Oja6CKE1
掛在依奴腰際的通訊儀器發出了電碼的頻率。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhW92VuJVJB
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBzwTLOhn5
依奴沒有任何動作，只是緊抱著赫恩，將那段訊息聽完。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVZlz7sWKh
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXAoCiFRyR
同樣的頻率重複了兩次，在這之後，通訊儀器再次回歸死寂。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tRGh1SyvL
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPh2gmumlIG
「是艾瑪利的訊息。」依奴的聲音顯得低沉且無情緒，甚至有些僵硬。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHS3DSGUcH

「戰爭終於要開始了，對吧。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLDQv51eIs

那些受害者、受益者、得救者、期望者們，將要匯聚在一起。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJjlMAPbSt

在那場改變一切的崩塌無數年月過後——463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOf59LvAoLS

「嗯，沒錯，戰爭終於開始了。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6lQNcCQYo

「依奴要去當傭兵了嗎？」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwxTKjCRu9
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrC9i8bB2B5
面對懷中少女的提問，他一時間無法用任何言語應答。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdmgQSR1XT
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtW0CuGnC7
他將自己的臉埋在赫恩肩上，僅限此刻，貪婪地試圖保留那股氣息。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4g1aDxPHC9
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0d0qVKHqBW
「和我一起逃走吧。」他低喃著：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kmIRrdS93
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYYJVzzX5d
「摩托車的油已經加滿了，我們繼續向西前進，一天後就能夠出海，從水路離開的話還能逃到其他國家。我們現在就從這片地獄離開，然後再也不要回來。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oUQjuIcn3

「地獄——」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDRrB1KmxQ
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkru1SMLHM
此刻浮現在赫恩腦海中的，並非毫無生息的研究所、虛假繁華的街道、撩亂交錯的燈光，也沒有潰散崩塌的高樓、解體沉降的橋樑或哀哭掙扎的人們。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsQThPn4Bs
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEQRCdqCqB
閃過的畫面，只有譚雅那泫然欲泣的表情。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgimvMvNVa6

陌生的穿刺感痛擊了她的胸膛。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MbCLpTYhR

這份尚未命名的情感，刺激著她沉寂的胸口，催促著她去感受。463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2p3TX5GPaB
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeCymUUtuY
赫恩輕輕搖了搖頭：463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B7Egfe2gm

「不可以，」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziqHesJgHO
463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4L3r1J6E7

「依奴，請帶我回去吧。」463Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnpvK6PBP4
