自離開歐利伽米之後，這三天眾人一直各忙各的沒空聯絡。難得梓承和克里斯惹得哄堂大笑，驚魂甫定的各人便索性在原地交換起情報來。
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn86bNxXnyl
綜合各人所說，梓承很快便掌握到大家在過去兩天的動向。首先是莫里斯和丹尼花了兩天時間，終於成功聯絡正躲著衛兵隊的克里斯。然後就在雙方見面的時候，一群灰衣人不知從何處冒出來見人就斬，而正在街上做直播的維比還有替馬庫斯買藥的艾莉娜更是首當其衝。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWPGU1Fnln
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDQCwLLZvO
維比想起剛才千鈞一髮的處境，帶着餘怯的怒道：「那些衛兵之前還到處抓人，現在竟然在街上半個人影都沒看到，就連衛兵局的大門也被反鎖，根本兩幫人就是蛇鼠一窩嘛！如果剛才不是菲恩及時放箭，後果真的是不堪設想！」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95CIjBgmtQ
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvid88vkfRa
丹尼聞言朝地上啐了一口唾沫，手指劈啪作響的道：「我認得那些灰衣人裡頭有幾個黑道的傢伙，沒想到魯珀特的混帳竟然跟黑道聯手對付普通市民。怎樣，有誰想跟我去衛兵局大鬧一番，出出這口烏氣？」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPOiUpYHHO
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhzfR1Ore3
對此提議，坎迪絲和部份學生當然立即拍手叫好，但莫里斯和埃里克卻認為當前急務是要把傷者送到聖域醫療隊總部。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EcERp19Tr
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pwVTYa3FG
就在各人七嘴八舌議論紛紛之際，一直在一旁沉默不語的艾莉娜突然聽到了一聲呼喚。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JJaByaDl7
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvs1JkvmVJ
「艾莉娜，你還好嗎？有沒有受傷？」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7v6RvPjMa
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtgOTQot1N
她抬頭一望，只見梓承一臉擔憂的看著自己。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWPwCzJKYB
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXR6YEYHDxk
又一次被菲恩保護了呢。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59SHzUbH9B
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJ6imCiQmT
艾莉娜想起在阿爾塔湖，在那漫天螢火蟲的湖邊，眼前這個男生向她許下了一個小小的承諾。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4t99TZusa
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDa4wgCD202
你會保護我嗎？497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DFi2TxEzM
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJMMSI1jwe
他做到了。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY33IytrAfw
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBHGEnOf7F
可是她並沒有感到特別高興。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEmluhYlhj
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQ43fANr65
「我……沒事。」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdT2wSG3gO
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQ1jz32iUN
不對，這不是她想要說的話。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkOkpd0qwp
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZB9uzoc9R
可是看著梓承靜靜地站在那裡，擔心的神情寫滿了整張臉，原本想要說的話便卡在喉嚨說不出來。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAZKBpt58Q
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1jtWz31xw
「菲恩履行了湖邊那晚的承諾呢。」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDN52URLO50
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElifvi8T8z
艾莉娜莞爾一笑，嫣然大方的笑靨讓梓承不覺看得痴了。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWxHTfZLJV
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2Z5msFXMC
但很可惜，他始終沒能察覺到那張笑臉背後隱藏着的淡淡哀傷。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTfn5mvaXz
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05RBNBEOnL
要這樣一直躲在他的背後受他保護嗎？497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyggUOT6Mix
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOWbUgcN5C
自目睹梓承在競技場賭命似的戰鬥之後，艾莉娜便開始意識到，自己不願躲在這個男人的背後，一次又一次看著對方為了別人弄得傷痕累累而自己卻什麼都做不到。尤其當聽到坎迪絲眉飛色舞地說著梓承如何在河堤上以遊戲退敵，還有維比稱讚着梓承百步穿楊的箭術成功將大家救出，當初在祈願殿堂因為全是無用技而沮喪不已的男生，現在已經成為她無法輕易講出「想要跟你並肩一起走」的英雄。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIShr32AwnZ
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvToqJ9uKBV
「只有【關愛】和【分享】兩個無用技的我，有資格站在你身旁嗎？」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIgJMKLuFi
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoBGfMAiIa
她想不通，為什麼想走在喜歡的人身邊竟然會是這麼的困難。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4HQcDnDJy
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvY3ovtgYZ
就像那晚在湖邊捉緊了的溫度，如今正在不知不覺中逐漸消失，而她卻一點辦法都沒有。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGgfMCnisU
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0wAuqDGbW
「如果我也能戰鬥的話……」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNDnWCxlWz
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjzoGjTRBq
就在一滴淚水從艾莉娜臉頰滑落之際，雪露的呼喊剛好讓梓承轉過了頭，錯過了最重要的那一秒。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszIFgklHE8
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeA0WFUrhp
艾莉娜聽著雪露和梓承對答。在經歷數次出生入死之後，某種牽絆正在這兩人之間交織起來。而相對地，艾莉娜卻感到跟梓承之間的距離越來越遠。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRxbrmGgLM
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywVginFrI7
「艾莉娜……」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0Qh60t7FS
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfci3WIGFL
梓承跟雪露說罷回過頭來，但艾莉娜卻已經不在。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76hNVxPtJn
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXNJGc2iQO
「你有能力救人，但憑這樣的你還是無法給她幸福的。」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnIns3S1Do
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEXjWaJNLS
莫里斯突如其來的說話讓梓承止住腳步，一臉愕然站在原地。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRg8XRiIeOT
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUuChnr1iq
「莫里斯，你這句話是什麼意思？」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Gl1pTmxqk
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkkp2fpd3x
「你對艾莉娜有多了解？她的過去、她的喜好、她的想法，你知道多少？我跟她一起在聖域長大，十多年時間，她所有的優點和缺點我都清清楚楚。」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1uTv3OO2Q
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSIgzilUwv
「我知道你和艾莉娜情同兄妹，但……」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhbMuYD5zN
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8r9EoxDAWZ
「誰要跟她情同兄妹啊！」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhc7KpTKPr
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcPQwO9FOp
「咦？」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVKNQ1lQtg
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuHB172Mp2
「我一直都喜歡艾莉娜！」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfGaOmcRl0
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M1JTfNbBG
咦？497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQeFFLzqYw
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCdSnw1VxS
慢著慢著，莫里斯那傢伙說什麼？497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvCtTheAJ2
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRfEOffGVj
喜歡？497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SJQS78j3p
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnZziusXtb
梓承起初還以為自己聽錯，但看到莫里斯正經八百的模樣，他突然想起在歐利伽米的時候，莫里斯就硬塞過一瓶超難喝，口感猶如生吞惡臭史萊姆的提神劑給他。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vvJiTK2CK
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOQ8Wrv0OZ
「你這傢伙！那晚給我超難喝的提神劑，原來是在公報私仇！」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNR5gETOm7G
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mJoiF3Eew
莫里斯嘿嘿一笑道：「怎樣？要保命退出的話，現在還不算遲哦。」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxS2Xekfho
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eBgzxwr9q
作為一個標準宅男，梓承在愛情面前打退堂鼓本是理所當然的事。可是當他一想到離開赫澤爾頓之後，這生恐怕難再看到艾莉娜的笑臉 —— 一種陌生的揪心痛楚讓他打住了念頭。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyofWZYqlZY
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxAPOWBJjY
最後他選擇了無視莫里斯的喊聲，邁步往前追上艾莉娜。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbHzwRCbNI
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrt3K96bvF
不管了。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmU3xWZQOXv
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMD3I4NEi0v
即使離開赫澤爾頓之後要去哪裡、要怎樣生活，還有許多細節現在都沒有答案，但這刻他還是想把這份任性的想法傳遞給她。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HvMyrScUw
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzAMFsdm9F
最後他從後捉住了艾莉娜的手。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8nEQXGnFR
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEnp5KFHcJ
「等等，艾莉娜。有件事……」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6FaX4j0E1
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07dFjzvtzD
「你們怎麼可以突然在這裡封路！」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAc4ZeIlcc5
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lysQYHfQs
「不就是嘛！我們是普通市民，你們衛兵隊憑什麼無緣無故妨礙我們回家！」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsoJ4WOHbq
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJizj1vOBgf
梓承呆一呆，發現前面人山人海。在愛德華大道中央位置，不知道什麼時候被衛兵架起了一道臨時關卡，將通往豪宅區的道路徹底堵死了。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHV1SE1fKFP
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMqYHruN41
「你們現在正進行非法集結，請馬上離開，否則我們將會使用最低武力將你們驅趕！」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hOq9lvZBX
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoBtpF6UHZ
衛兵冷冰冰的廣播進一步激化已經沸騰了的民怨。不少人甚至開始向臨時關卡投石，嘴上破口大罵。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXaQvDVvIG
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgbWO8O8nz
「不見人！剛才那些灰衣人襲擊我們的時候你們這些衛兵隊跑到哪裡啦！」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NdHNMbkea
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cglOjTcXX
「你們這些衛兵隊知不知道羞恥兩個字呀！」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiV9UfdHcO
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxL2ga8e3H
在一片「開關」的喊聲下，衛兵隊再次豎立黑色的警告旗幟，手持盾牌和武器的衛兵在關卡面前一字排開，眼見流血衝突是已經無可避免。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXOgHulfIM
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iPavnYXvc
「最後一次警告，立即離開愛德華大道，否則我們將會使用武力！」497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNY1eLZiz91
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwmsxvWjfL
沒有給任何理由，也沒有任何協商的餘地。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtfVL4q3ZQ
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzpNu3ZAd0
現在後退，就要回到灰衣人所在的街道。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iEGmR4Gk0
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZx2DZlnCK
而前進，也要跟全副武裝的衛兵正面交鋒。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wAFsYrFLx
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ230mQfECuh
被逼進絕境的民眾眼神開始轉變，紛紛露出一副豁出去的神情。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbH7sIHORMR
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrsCa34r1d
一場雞蛋與高牆的戰鬥，即將就要在愛德華大道上爆發起來。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC7FpU4HCY
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xv1K1340V
這場暴力衝突，就是後來王國嚴禁民眾提起或哀悼的「愛德華大道襲擊事件」。497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtHxZPdOHk
